Lamayuru-Padum-Darcha Trek (INDIA)





18 days trek in 11 days. 200 Km by foot.
Through rain, snow, wind... It was incredible, funny and not easy.
The first three days we were going alone with our backpacks
(appr. 25 kg each one with all equipment, include gas, food, tent).
On the firth day we'd rented some help ( very cute donkey with his
owner - very funny grandpa ) and our backpacks got easier for some
10 kgs. Last 3 days we had a horse. Sometimes we'd slept in the houses
of local peoples, one time in nunnery school ( school for nunns with crazy
nuns :), but usually in our tent.
Up and Down, almost always on the edge of the gap.

This is the our way with altitudes and walking hours. All names with "La"
means mountain passes. Names and altitudes taked from Ladakh-Zanskar
map.

PLEASE SEE THE PICTURES FROM BOTTOM TO TOP OF PAGE
(right chronology - from first to last day ).

HI Dima!
Была, видела, впечатлилась... Завидую завистью белой. Великолепные места. Прямо-таки край света.
Целую. Береги себя.

Загорел то под солнышком. А так отличный видеорепортаж о путешествии. Пожелание - снимай побольше природу, пейзажи.
