We Went Hunting for Yaks in the Mountains of Zanskar

I went to Shaday this winter to have (possibly) the greatest adventure of my life. At the start of every winter the villagers of Shaday go into the mountains to search for and bring their Yaks back home. I was privileged to go with them this time.

    Thank you Mr Nagaraj. Personally I would prefer more views than subscribers. It used to be decent early on but the viewership numbers have fallen off a cliff in the last year or so. I was hoping to change it this winter season, but then I had to return home after just a month in the mountains. Anyway, I had a wonderful time at Shade this winter. The experience of going with the Yaks was much better than i could have imagined. And that is the most important thing for me.

Some of the footage is beyond epic in this one Saravana, especially when watched on big screen. It gives such an immersive experience, truly bringing the grandeur of your adventure into our homes. I wish you more and more epic adventures. I am positive your documentation will someday be known as some of the most valuable records of Ladakh's traditions.
