Monomad: Through Snow and Silence
I've brought you some black and white photos from my heart, which I call Solang Valley. I lived here for a few years, and there's hardly a place I haven't seen. I explore every corner of this valley, and that too on foot.
Situated at an altitude of 2450 meters, this valley is considered an adventure valley. Tourists come here every year to participate in a variety of activities, including hiking, mountaineering, ziplining, river crossing, zorbing, paragliding, and skiing.
My only interest lies in trekking, so today's photos are from my trek from Kothi Village to Kothi Top. During the trek, I saw spectacular views of Hanuman Tibba, Shitidhar, Mukhar Bah, Ladakhi Peak, Friendship Peak, and Patalsu Peak.
On this trek, we completed our task by walking through the snow that had fallen two days earlier. Walking on the snow was extremely difficult, as the snow had already wet our boots and pants, making it extremely cold. The coldness only got worse when dark clouds gathered in the sky and a strong, cold wind began to blow. Anyway, it was a lot of fun.
Hindi Version
कुछ ब्लैक एंड वाइट फ़ोटोज़ आपके लिए लेकर आया हूँ अपने दिल से जिसे मैं सोलंग घाटी कहता हूं. मैं यहाँ रहता भी था कुछ साल, यहाँ मुश्किल ही कोई जगह होगी जो मैंने नही देखी. इस घाटी के कौने-कौने में घूमकर देखता है वो भी पैदल.
२४५० मीटर पर मौजूद इस घाटी को एडवेंचर घाटी होने का दर्ज़ा प्राप्त है. यहाँ हर साल सैलानी बहुत सारी एक्टिविटीज में भाग लेने आते हैं. यहाँ हिकिंग, mountaineering, ज़िपलाइन, रिवर क्रासिंग, ज़ोब्रिंग, पैराग्लाइडिंग और स्की होती है.
मेरा इंटरेस्ट सिर्फ ट्रैकिंग में होता है, आज के फ़ोटोज़ कोठी गाँव से कोठी टॉप ट्रैकिंग करते हुए समय के हैं. ट्रेक के दौरान मैंने हनुमान टिब्बा, शितिधार, मुखर बह, लदाखी पीक, फ्रेंडशिप पीक और पतालसू पीक के शानदार नजारे देखे.
इस ट्रेक पर हमने २ दिन पहले गिरी बर्फ पर चलकर अपने टास्क को पूरा किया, बहुत मुश्किल था बर्फ पर चलना क्योंकि बर्फ ने हमारे जूते और पेंट पहले ही गीली कर दी थी जिसकी वजह से ज्यादा ठण्ड लग रही थी, हमें और ठण्ड तब लगने लगी जब आकाश में काले बादल आ गए और तेज़ ठंडी हवा चलने लगी. खैर मजा तो बहुत आया.
