NIM Uttarkashi
The mountain doesn't care who you are. It just asks what you're made of. Twenty-eight days of rope, ice and snow — the Basic Mountaineering Course, BMC 293 Ladies Batch, NIM Uttarkashi.
Multi-day trails, passes and summits walked on foot.
Chamoli, Uttarakhand
A peak that demands everything and returns it tenfold. Pangarchula isn't just a climb — it's a reckoning. The kind that leaves you quieter, and somehow fuller, on the other side.
Chamoli, Uttarakhand
The Curzon Trail. Nanda Devi. Dronagiri. Kamet. The Kuari Pass offers a panorama so vast it feels less like a view and more like a conversation with the sky itself.
The trail began before dawn. The forest swallowed the path whole and I walked into a silence so complete it felt like a second skin — unfamiliar at first, and then, somehow, like coming home.
Uttarakhand
The mountain has been calling for a while now. Snow-covered meadows, frozen lakes, a summit that promises a sky unlike any other — some journeys begin long before the first step.
Day hikes through forest, grassland and monsoon rain.
Chikkamagaluru, Karnataka
A mountain wearing a horse's face, twenty kilometres of forest and grass and water, and rain that doesn't ask permission.
Not a peak. Not a summit. Just a waterfall that makes you feel like you've found the end of the world.
Shivamogga, Karnataka
The mountain wakes you before you're ready. Mist in the trees, rain on the path, cold red mud that claims your shoes like it always meant to.
Where a river is born in the mist, and the grasslands feel like a world that shouldn't exist.
