Pangarchulla Peak Trek : Day #5 | Kullara camp —> Karchi Base camp
Day 5 was all downhill. The weather was reasonably warm and we encountered trekkers accompanied by local groups. Some of them appeared completely unprepared, having not been briefed about the trek. One even lacked gloves and Balaji was ready to share his but couldn’t find them. We also met summer…

Pangarchulla Peak Trek : Day #3 | Kullara Camp site —> Kuari Peak
On Day 3, we embarked on a trek to the Kuari Peak and back. JJ had asked us to carry our entire backpacks for this. I struggled with the climb, partly due to my illness and partly because of the weight of my backpack. I was the last of the…

Day 2 of the trek was a short trek to acclimatise us to the high altitude. We moved leisurely from Tali campsite to Khullara campsite. Lakshmy and Ravi kindly offered space in their offloading bag to reduce my weight, and I gratefully accepted. Some heavy items, including power banks, went…
