Day 1

Waichin Valley.

Have you ever dreamt of waking up on a AR Rahman song watching the world before you covered with snow. If yes I had a dream too until I saw this.

It's a moonlight hike started around 10:00 pm and reached about 1:30 pm (normally Two and half hours)
3 hours 30 minutes of hardcore trek and hike in the snow filled slippery Mountain was totally worth it. There is always a lot of love and romance that you can associate with this beauty but practically this is the most horrifing and a very dangerous hike to do especially when it snows and if it's night.

This trip was not a pre-planned one, not an expected one nor was on my wishlist. It's was my friends birthday and he wanted this and we did this.

Some trips are beyond words to explain, it's one of them.
