Scenes from our Himalayan Trek

We just got back from a nearly two week trip to north India that was highlighted by a 9 day trek over Kuari Pass in the Garhwal Mountain region of the Himalayas. The altitude and steep slopes made the trek more difficult than we anticipated, but we managed to trek over 100km without any major problems. The breathtaking scenery that accompanied us most of the trip more than made up for the extra effort we had to put in climbing up and down the mountains. Here's a must see slide show from our trip, including a few photos from Rishikesh, where the trek we organized the trek through the outfitting company, Red Chilli Adventures.
