"Mountains help me navigate what is most important to me. They balance the chaos that is regular life. Balance is what I strive to accomplish in climbing - a balance of life, love and mountains. Alpine climbing is a life-long commitment. I live and breathe it." - @jessroskelley 
Relaxing with fellow trekkers...! 😍⭐ 
On the way to Dal Lake found a Tibetan cafè with a great view overlooking the valley. 🌟 
Got recommended a short hour and a half hike to a temple by locals in Naddi. Ended up being a two hour rough hike but totally worth it. Was rewarded with the calmness of the temple at the top, beautiful view and a slice of cake🍰.

Just wrapping the sun in the bag. Hope they don't forget to bring it back tomorrow... 
I remember sitting at this place and really zooming on to those mountain slopes. Wondering how beautiful and alluring it looks from here but how harsh it must be to actually be there. The cold snow stinging your feet, numbing your senses and creeping urgency to find a shelter.

On the way down Prashar Lake while the sun setting. Tried reaching for something thats out of the reach.

This is to remind me how I was feeling right then in that moment. 🌟 Not sure when I might visit something like this but I am grateful that I was able to. I understand how special that is. It's all about how you choose to perceive it. I see it as an opportunity to step back, take a break and be grateful. 🥰 
The brooding pose every super hero movies needs. A doggy knight rises! Chilled out with this homie while climbing down. We both have similar music taste 🎵 
Fell in love with this Japanese aesthetics at a cafe in Kasol.

This one tree had a very disproportionate trunk...! It doesn't even make sense. 
"Starry, starry night 
Was absolutely spent after reaching Kheerganga camp after a long trek. Slipped in to the hot water springs to relax and enjoy a beautiful evening with a beautiful sunset behind the snow clad mountains. Never have I recovered so fast from a trek. 
Never seen a glacier before. Nor do I remember myself as a 5 year old. That day I saw both! 
Reached Bir in the noon. Bad weather hindered the takeoffs in the noon. Turned to be a blessing in disguise! Was able to witness the sun setting in the sky while we glided down. Lingered on the landing site to get this beautiful superimposed glider diving into the setting sun. Also looks like an eyebrow! 🌞 👁️

That's a Homestay...? I don't see any mountains from my home... Maybe we have different ideas 😜
