A photograph of a narrow paved mountain path in a Himalayan valley with steep green cliffs and misty peaks behind. Along the left side are a corrugated tin roof and a stone wall, with bundles of cloth and flowers hung on bamboo poles. On the right, small roadside stalls with blue and black tarpaulin roofs, wooden posts, plastic chairs and tables stand beside shelves of bottles and packets. A group of about fifteen people walks along the path; several wear saffron-orange robes and one wears a red jacket, while others wear grey and dark jackets. A man in a white shirt walks near a pony or mule in the centre of the group, and a figure in a dark jacket leads the way. A thin rope is strung across the scene above the stalls.
