Thanks Gaurav! Wonderful!! i was in some of those area--Shimla, Manali--in June 2010. Great to read about your great adventures told in words and photos! We didnt go to Rohtang Pass--too many trucks!! I guess it was quieter at night?? (We settled for Jalori Pass instead
)
Thanks agin for posting this travelogue.
Great photos! And what a trip - I'm seriously jealous...
Phenomenal photos!
Great pics, Gaurav.
Great report.
Phenomenal trip....enjoy.
You are living your dream!!
@CaliNurse .. Thanks a lot, Rohtang Pass was surely very quiet during that time...there was not even a single truck! Jalori Pass is beautiful as well..although I have never been there but have heard a lot about it.
All, Thanks a lot for your appreciation and comments. It was definitely a special trip for me..

Last part coming soon
The last part of my journey
