Diddi rukna nahi hai! (Sister, we are not stopping)

The title are the words of the 15 year old guide Arun who accompanied me on the trek to Triund. Weeks after this experience I feel the need to go even higher and to the next trek. Arun was an excellent guide and a very bright young man from Dharamkot.
