Day 5 continued – Jot Pass and Beyond
We reached Jot pass a little after 12 noon. It was a small climb from the road towards the view point.
Clouds had already started engulfing the peaks.
View of the other side of the pass
There are a few staying options available on the top of the pass, but we decided to move ahead so that the journey would be less on the next day.
The snowed peaks and high altitude are so intoxicating that we felt depressed as we were descending from the pass.
We saw the Ravi basin again.
Posing now for the camera.
We had delayed lunch at Shelly restaurant on the link road, Samote.
We decided to break the journey and stayed at
Hotel Rajat, Chambi.
Went out for a stroll behind the hotel in a village, which appeared to be an affluent one with paddy fields, nice buildings. This is in stark contrast with any typical Bengal village, where the lack of affluence will be noticeable. A gentleman, an ex-serviceman, approached us and invited us to his house. We had the privilege having fresh milk there.
