A steep, wet forest path climbs through tall trees and dense green shrubs on a hillside. A group of devotees carries a figure in a saffron and orange cloth on a wooden palanquin, several people in orange, blue and white clothing lifting the poles along the muddy stone-paved trail. Another line of people follows behind in saffron, green and white garments, some in orange robes, walking uphill on the same track. The scene suggests a pilgrimage procession in the Himalayan foothills during monsoon weather, with a small orange flag visible on the left.
