A group of pilgrims sits on the rocky ground beneath a towering sandstone cliff, with a snow-capped peak rising above the ridge under a partly cloudy blue sky. In the left foreground, a man in a dark knit beanie, sunglasses and a bright orange jacket with grey panels faces the group and appears to be speaking. Most seated pilgrims wear warm jackets, hats and red or maroon shawls, some with hands folded. A standing figure in a dark cap and red wrap stands on the right near the cliff base. The scene is shadowed on the lower half and sunlit on the rock face above.
