As the people say "Four Wheels move the body, Two wheels move the Soul."
With the same enthusiasm I along with my friend form Bombay @explorer_yash went for a ride somewhere through the last villages of the town.

Everything was just fantastic until we reached at a point where we realised that we had came too far.. Where the road was either nearly ending or had been broken down.
The place seemed to be one of the peaceful place I had ever been! Even with the motor-able road with no cars.
At a point it even made me wonder that what was even the need of the construction of a road to the places like these where the life feels like a life!

The view just looked like something like this..
The Valley’s through the Valley's and so on..

It had been nearly four hours that we had been riding with no pause and making our was through the magical trails of the Shegli Village, which was the last village of the place comprising of about five to ten houses only in the whole village living the life of green.

The road was full of pebbles and mud making the expedition an adventurous one. We were literally enjoying each and every moment of the same. But who knew that what was the next.. As we were riding through and through the more we were getting away from the cellular service on our mobile phone and beyond this point we almost lost the signal on our phones.

Riding through the trail was quite an adventure, making our was all the way through the roads unknown! A place far away from the city life.

During our expedition I noticed this place, A huge cliff through which this road was constructed by cutting down the cliff through between making it's way all the way through.

The water which was flowing through the rocks was natural spring water which made this whole cliff look a bit dark in colour by making it wet.

After riding nearly about 10KM beyond the last village we reached at this point. The point where nearly half of the mountain had been collapsed by the landslide.

The landslide caused a huge damage to the one and only bridge that made it possible for cross the deep high flowing galcial river.

The depth form the road to the river was around a hundred feet and there was nearly no possibility of bringing something back from the river as after few miles the depth of the river even got increased to 300 feet and above.

We took a decision to cross the broken bridge keeping our bikes parked behind us. Crossing the bridge one by one by making sure that we were not putting much weight on the broken bridge. And thus it turned out to be a turning point of our expedition!

The Turning Point

IMG_2830 Large.jpeg
The glacier through which the river was originating was seen in front of us, It was roughly three miles away from this place through which the water was making its way all the way through the huge rocks.

IMG_2862 Large.jpeg
Finally made our was all the way to the other side of the valley crossing the broken bridge.

IMG_2863 Large.jpeg
A great damage had been caused due to the landslide that the whole portion of the mountain had fallen into the river now making the place more prone to landslides too.

IMG_2865 Large.jpeg
The road beyond the landslide are looked something like this.

IMG_2868 Large.jpeg
Beyond this point the road was just totally closed caused by landslide in the area which was the result of construction of roads in a peaceful place like this where making these high altitude places motor-able so that many people could reach the location without hiking up the mountain when usually in the past in order to reach this place it used to take around a full days hike to reach this place.

So it was the final turning point of our journey where we had to turn back. It was a good day to remember a day full of adventures.

The Valley’s through the Valley's and so on..

Indeed, that view is looking like one valley is hugging another one. Mountains are coming close to each other.
Rocky pathway was no doubt a difficult for you. I think I should replace the word difficult with adventurous.
