Another long day on the trail, but through gorgeous country. Day 4 starts with another downhill trek from Chumrung (7,120') to the Chumrung Khola, over a suspension bridge, and then back up the other side through rhododendron and bamboo forests, past the villages of Sinuwa Danda and Bamboo, and finally on to Dovan (8,220'). We passed a lot of horse trains today. The camp at Dovan is chilly. Today's summary is waterfalls, forests and elevation gain.
