Take it steady on the trek into Mera.
Trek via Pangkongma, rather than going directly into the Hinku Valley over the Zatrwa La (better for acclimatisation).
Expect Mera to be very cold (plastics and mitts essential).
Enjoy the remoteness of the Hongu Valley, but don't be there is the weather's bad!
For the Amphu Labtsa, you want to be sure you're comfortable moving on loose rocky ground in crampons, and abseiling...
