Pilgrims queue at a food service table outdoors on a misty mountain path during the Kailash Yatra, with stone buildings and a small shrine-like structure behind them. A man in a purple jacket and another in a blue down jacket, both wearing orange scarves, hold plates and serve themselves from steel pots of food. Several other pilgrims in blue, red and grey jackets, one wearing a dark hat, stand along the table holding bread, dal-like stew and rice. Pots, bowls and a patterned tablecloth cover the table. Green shrubs and prayer flags appear at the left edge.
