I am lucky that mountains and photography go hand in hand. I’ve been playing with the camera under Navin mamu’s tutelage off and on through the hols and towards the last set the results are beginning to come through. Some shots are truly amazing and I’d say it myself.
Back in gulmarg and with 2 days of chutti in the bag I got it into my head to climb Apharwat – the highest point nearby. 4 hours later on the 22nd we were rewarded with a tabletop at 13,500 feet good for a cricket pitch. Obviously this was not on the moon so someone had built a road from the other side of the mountain to the very top and I did feel like a bit of an idiot. But well I wanted to do it, we got to go higher than the famous gondola and kept a date with the eagles and the clouds. I also got to mess with some snow and my camera. Here is to more impromptu climbs!
It’s been a really great hol and I’m raring to hit Delhi and work.
