Namaste 🙏
Hope you all are doing great!
This is going to be a really special blog as in this blog I will tell you guys about one of the best adventures that I did recently. If you have been following my journey from past few days, you must be knowing that I am hiking above the last village called Shagchar until now, it’s been a really great adventure. I was hiking with my friend and a very cute dog joined us and we named him, Mr Snow White.
Let me tell you beforehand in this blog. You’re gonna see some of the most beautiful photos that you will see today, I’m quite confident regarding that. Right now, we were in such a area that a lot of snow was there, and we were having a little hard time walking on snow.
We were hiking without any targets and our only target was to have fun and explore the beautiful himalayan landscapes. We didn’t even expected us to reach here as it’s also quite high, and it’s quite difficult to walk on snow, and in spite of that some energy from I don’t know where came inside us that motivated us to move forward and just keep moving.
Now we were so high that now we could see the valley from a birds. I have view. You can also see that in the photographs below, we can see a lot of small villages down there and it felt like we are sitting inside of an aeroplane.
The snow doesn’t look much deep in the photographs as the snow has partially melted from some places, but let me tell you. It was quite deep in some of the places, and I almost got inside of it up to my waist, deep, and I had to take help from my friend to get out of it.
Even that didn’t stop us from moving forward, we just keep moving and our target was to reach a place that was a little bit dry and has some place to sit so that we could spend another hour sitting there and having fun.
My friend also got stuck a couple times, and I helped him out now we had to carry some sticks that we found wild just to support us in the snow district was also useful in determining the depth of snow in certain points as it was quite dangerous to walk on it unmonitored.
After a while, another level of difficulty was rising as the landscape became cheaper and stepper. With every passing step. Now we started to lose energy and the time is also taking quite fast. Now now we had to work against the forces of gravity and also now the lack of oxygen started to Reflect in the atmosphere.
Right now, we were almost at the height of 3200 m from the sea level and the woods. We were travelling in one of the woods of this mountains above these woods. The non-tropic zone was about to start.
As the landscape was now steeper, the snow also started to become more deeper in the photograph above. You can see my feet completely submerged inside of the snow and I was helpless there at that point, but my friend helped me to get out of this.
In spite of getting stuck multiple times, I was quite happy, and I was enjoying this from deep inside. I wanted an adventure of this kind from a really long time and it couldn’t be any perfect.
In this photograph, you can see me smiling because I was so happy from inside and I also captured one of these selfies which I rarely take, but the selfies I take when I’m really happy. I wanted to cherish this moment and keep it with myself throughout.
Now the most difficult part of the hike was about to start and let me tell you. It was something I really look up upon to. I will be telling you guys about the last part of the journey in the next blog. I think that is it for today thanks for passing by.
Peace ☮️
