These are the pictures from my trek to Stok Kangri peak in Ladakh, from last August. The post has long been pending. I am only uploading the pictures as of now.
I call it a trek since this peak, even though situated at an altitude of around 6153m, required no technical skill for climbing. All I had to do, was walk along the easy trail to the top of the mountain. The real fun had only started when the summit was about 3 hours away. The altitude started showing its effect on the body and the view had became magnificent from that point onward – the glacier on the left side, the sun rising from behind a serrated horizon on the right side and the summit right ahead and above me.
It had been a great experience overall and prepared me well for my next peak.
