A COLD LAKESIDE MORNING FOLLOWED BY A SUNNY HIKE AROUND CHANDRATAL LAKE BRINGS
US BACK TO CAMP
IN A SNOWSTORM AND PANIC SETS IN AMID THE UNHAPPYCAMPERS
WHO WANT TO BAIL OUT TO AVOID OVER-WINTERING:
A SPECTACULAR RIDE THROUGH THE PIR PUNJAL
OVER THE LAHOUL VALLEY SURROUNDED BY SNOW-CAPPED PEAKS AT SUNSET FOLLOWED BY
A NIGHT-TIME FORCED DRIVE THROUGH THE MOUNTAIN PASSES IN THE RAIN AND DARK
TO RETURN TO MANALI
