After over one more concrete bridge, you will eventually be returning to the main route on the opposite side. From this point the trek is pretty basic, there is a gradual ascent to the campsite.

The first half is essentially before lunch, and there isn't much change there other from a few patches of pine and maple trees. After a difficult ascent via stones, the route completely alters. The valley widens to a broad area encircled by enormous mountains. The mountains begin to emerge in the distance, covered in snow.
