Hey guys, I am going to Nepal solo in November and was originally planning to do the manaslu trek. With the recent floods this is off the cards (it is still closed, right?) and so I am looking for an alternative hike(s).

I was thinking kangchenjunga could be good, though I know you need a guide and since it's only a month out I figured that may not be feasible? If it is feasible, would you recommend kangchenjunga as a first hike in Nepal? I have over 3 weeks in Nepal, so there should be time to do it.

I was also thinking of perhaps doing a one/two week guided hike, before doing Anapurna base camp solo, instead of kangchenjunga. Thoughts on that?…
