A beautiful memory was created and imprinted in my mind on a very recent trek.

We just finished the winter trek to Kuari pass in the first week of December. The trek turned out to be a surreal experience and all along we had the weather on our side. Crisp blue skies, warm sunlight, cold nights (minus 10 degrees) and cool mountain winds accompanying the warm sunlight.

All along the trek I got to see some incredibly beautiful sights and nature in all her glory. Its sights like these that makes one feel so incredibly humble in front of nature. Sights that left me awestruck and wanting more and more and more.

While walking a narrow ledge with a 1000 meter drop on one side, I couldn’t help but stare at the beautiful human face shadow on the mountains…

A beautiful lake with nature reflected in her calm waters in all glory… a thin line between the real and surreal
