Saari village from Deoria Tal trek
What a lovely trek path it is, though it was little tough on me and Priyanka. Thankfully we hired a mule for Nandini and she was happy with that
More lovely views on the way
And the magical Deoria Tal at sunset
The man, Lakhpat, we stayed with him at his guest house. He arranged a tasty Uttarakhandi home food for us, along with a much need bon-fire. He was our guide for Deoria Tal trek as well
Sunset at Deoria Tal
Time to head back to our base at Saari. getting down was much much tougher for Priyanka as she was not wearing proper trekking shoes

Naughty Gang
Drive from Saari to Chopta was an easy one, we lost our way a bit and went inside Ukimath but still enjoyed the drive. Road was clear upto Bania Kund and then quite alot of black snow ahead for next 4 km to Chopta. We decided t o stay at Bania Kund, at Chauhan Guest House, recommended by Lakhpat
Plenty of snow
