Trek Day 3- Rumbak to Yuryutse to Base Ganda La

We started early morning to reach the base Ganda La...
Guess the animals in the picture..."Long Live The Brotherhood"

A close look at Rumbak village..




Take the valley down and you would find yourself at Spitok...

a steady climb on the way to base Ganda La..


looking up to the trail of the day...

a bunch of Ladakhi goats, enjoying the morning sun...

look straight up.. the ridge is the Ganda La passs...
the one house village "Yurutse"



my first view of Stok Kangri peak along the trek.. remember on a clear day you can spot Stok Kangri from Leh Town itself...
the MARMOT's



wild Mother Chicken... dont know whats the name of the bird.. googled it and most similar bird is called Chukar!!

soon after reaching the campsite, we headed up the ridge to get better shots of the valley and Stok Kangri peak...


the massive Stok Kangri peak. Intend to scale it some day...


in deep thoughts...

See 3 tents down there, that's how much far up we climbed to get some decent shots...

Evening en gulping the valley...
the massive Stok Kanngri..
