Photograph of a steep stone staircase on a mountain trek, with a crowd of pilgrims in orange clothing and orange caps climbing and descending alongside rough rock and grass. At centre, a man with long, swept-back dark hair wears a full orange robe and white sneakers, holding a walking staff and ascending with a devotee at his side. A man in a dark shirt with rudraksha beads and an orange shawl stands at right, holding an orange towel. Others in orange, grey and brown jackets fill the path, with a blue and white logo banner and a black tarpaulin tent at top left. Appearance cues suggest the central figure could be a person, though this is uncertain.
