Few of the unexpected places that might we visit, and then it is whole lot of a different exploration and the moments they are even so fascinating that let’s go and dive deep into exploring and exploring more further and something quite unique, even happen when I was on my way to the speedy expedition, you know my friends quite month of October. Also being the last time going to the higher mountains going to the Hyatt Himalayas few days and also the particular day the snowfall just started and that was the whole tragedy, but that’s not the point of this post my friend it was whole lot of different than just a snowfall.

IMG_1490.jpeg The journey kind of began something, just like this the perfect weekend time means few days of exploring the place. No traffic, no rush and now also even the place is quite isolating, but we wanted it was just a perfect expedition and finally it was so it was somewhere near about 11 AM when we started a journey from Manali and reached all the way with these isolated portions on the road that was going all the way to Kaza one of the most isolated lens in the whole Himachal Pradesh.

IMG_1491.jpeg And these are the moments from somewhere right in the middle of nowhere, the place hardly had few stations in between. Although the whole distance it was not quite far. It was just near about more than hundred as far as I remember, but the road it was hardly to be said a road altitude. We were at quite high near about more than 4000 m and at certain points, it was near about more than 3500 m above the sea level, the road was narrow Trail, full of mud and also the roads for most the time of the year as the places so isolated and remote.

IMG_1508.jpeg Driving through such beautiful trails felt quite a lot adventurous, and altogether. We were really enjoying the views at certain point. It only felt like that we were just all around the valley and here is a quick glimpse that how the view kind of look something just like this from inside the car.

IMG_2943.jpeg This was the valley that we were headed to a narrow valley quite isolated deep in the Himalayas away from hustle and bustle No cell phone no network the phone was used as the camera only. This place was at certain point. I saw there was direct snowfall that took place all the way our journey, maybe the flakes were just that were coming from the higher mountains to the road by the wind or maybe it was just the snowfall. Usually the place is quite dry because of no vegetation, the place being above the tree line.

IMG_1503.jpeg There was this a bit of the greenery just right next to the river, and that was also maybe because of the flow of water, and there was some kind of Algae that was developing.

IMG_1505.jpeg The condition of the road kind of looked something just like this. There were these countless number of rocks just right next to the road at certain point. It felt like that they were the landslide rocks that came all the way through the mountains and truly, indeed they were, and at certain points, they were just by the side of the road that after snowfall after every single winter season. It is the process that the road is cleared after the winter season, the whole place is covered under thick sheet of snow.

The Settlement

IMG_1498.jpeg Just driving by and finally, we reached at the spot, and this was the settlement that I found just right next to the road. There were these few of the houses built in the traditional himalayan structure with just rocks and wood. And the primary purpose as far as that I knew it was just that the settlement was for the people and the construction workers and the officers and the engineers that after seize the road and every advance, the road is cleared after the snowfall, but it was the closing time of the whole season of the whole place, and now there was very few people and hardly I saw just a single vehicle right next to the settlement.

IMG_1493.jpeg They even were these tiny cabins that were just for maybe because of some work or in order to keep the items safe from snowfall, so that people usually keep their stuff at such place to avoid in order to carry it to another place who usually have the campsite over here. They also use the same technique. They used to place everything in just a single pile and then cover it with sheet and tie it.

IMG_1494.jpeg I was so much to see that how the people usually live at such an high altitude place and Harsh climatic conditions, no matter I would say just for a day or two or three or even a week, and even I have been at such an high altitude place living whenever I am in expedition, but my friends living here for quite a lot of time. It is really hard task the cold winds that bring the snowflakes all the way even in the summer season. Nobody knows at any time, the whole place can get covered under a thick sheet of snow. Nobody knows that any time, the climate and the weather might change.

IMG_1495.jpeg Just leaving in the middle of nowhere, and that was the true feeling that was the true asses that I got when I was at the place. It was really a whole lot of a different experience that I had on when I was at this place, just out of nowhere reached at a place out of in the middle of nowhere, and that was, I would say surprise of the nature surprises of the isolated places in the Himalayas and I thought why not to share it with you guys through this post so that you guys were also experienced such beautiful moments directly from the Himalayas.

IMG_1500.jpeg The place it had whole lot of different beauty. I realised that nature was not just about being and thinking about the green trees, green grass and the Meadows all around the river flowing and the beautiful mountains, but it was the whole lot of a different side of the nature. I saw that the beauty of this nature where it was the high altitude place with the beautiful dry mountains and cold wind, the vibe of the cold himalayan desert. Also with the mountain peaks covered with the white snow.

IMG_1501.jpeg They even was the river flowing right next to the road that came all the way from the glaciers, and it was quite a huge river named Chandra River. That had its tributary all the way from the countless number of glaciers and the countless number of places in the mountains from where the snow was melting and the glacier performing up and melting and blending into the river.
