Roopkund XV : Count my Sheep again... Photo

Photographer’s Note

... And then we reached Bedni Bugyal.

Shepherd come from far-off places and graze their sheep here and at another place called Ali Bugyal, which you can see in the background.

A Bugyal stands for a high altitude meadow in the local dialect. Bedni is at an altitude of around 3500 mts and commands an awesome view of the Himalayan Ranges.

Hi Amol,
Great place to wonder and graze. The sheep and at least one goat make anteresting foreground. This colour version is more informative, giving a better idea about the vegetation in this area.

Hi Amol!
Superb picture from every point of view I can think of.
BTW, do you have pictures of Roopkund lake itself? Would love to look at them.
