The Lads and the Men of the Mountain

We must have had walked for 5 hours to reach Dhundi. And these lads were the porters for the trip, they walk with a load as well. And yet after a while they had the energy to play ‘Kabaddi‘ near the campsite!

    lovely place to camp!

    for the potters and locals, what we call a trek is usually a daily walk in the park 🙂

    Chitra they were anyway scheduled posts while I too was away.

    Sandeep I agree 😀 but with the load they carried some of them did find it a bit of an effort especially the first few days when the food load is the heaviest.

    Shrinidhi you should trek in the Indian Himalayas once.
