Kashmir - Just a few days before the lockdown!



This is from as recent as Feb this year. What a sea change of events in a matter of a few weeks. I'd rather die in the FREEDOM that these slopes offer than live in bondage in the safety of my own home.

Skiing with a boarder - Kashmir 2020



I am usually a loner on the mountains. Be it skiing or climbing (except for accompanying paying clients); BUT this was an instance of a pleasant departure from the norm. It was fun hanging out with this guy, a 62 year old boarder from the States. Awe inspiring to see a senior kick butt on the mountains.

Cricket @ 4000m

In Ladakh after skiing in Kashmir. This is a ski tour/recce trip for future ice climbing possibilities. Cricket will always be the first love though. ;)


Kashmir 2020 - Awesome Skiing!



A beautiful year in terms of snow quality and volume. Was great fun skiing every single day in Kashmir. 

Wintering in the Himalayas!


Wintering in the Himalayas is a great idea. One can camp, hike, climb or just laze around a beautiful hill town. My favorite way to winter is to ski in the high Alpine. ;)
