They are monetised. Maybe you have your ad blocker on 🙂. Anyway, I make less than 20$ a month with the ads. It’s almost not worth it to turn them on, but then I’m afraid that Google’s algorithms would penalise my videos for not showing ads.

It's very delightful to see that behind such EPIC videos there is a person like us. I mean on one hand we see your timelapse videos which are beyond level and on the other hand we see your behind the scene videos which tells us that if we have the will to do it, we CAN do it.

Absolutely fantastic Saravana! Keep the fire burning. Few other things that i carry during treks that you may want to consider if not already in your bag which weighs not more than 250 Gm :) 1. light weight solar light or head torch or in your case the mobile phone helps but it does not have long range of light 2. Flint - Just in case you run out of fuel or stove breakdown 3. Nylon thread/rope, very helpful in many occasions, especially in windy weather to tie the tent or camera equipment 4. Housewife kit - again very help full if something needs to be stitched 5. Quick fix and M-seal

@indiainmotion

6 жыл бұрын

Those are some good suggestions. But I'm sure they'll all together run up to more than 250g. A headlamp is definitely necessary. Especially on this trip. More than a few times I've walked back to my tent after having dinner with the shepherds. Under a moonless sky terrified that my phone's battery would die on me. I gave away my headlamp at the end of my Spiti trip last winter and haven't gotten around to getting a replacement. The other things I've carried around at one point or other and haven't found much use for them. Someone should make a flint key chain with a nylon braided handle. I'll definitely buy that.

The real beauty when you visit these places is what you discover within yourself.

My winter gear is also similar, expect for a better sleeping bag (North Face Inferno -30) and more layers. My tent, stove and mattress remains the same. I also lighten my load during winters by leaving behind the slider and a few other items. Reliance Jio is everywhere in Kinnaur. It is available till Spillow I believe, so connectivity is much better here than in Ladakh or Spiti. I don’t carry any safety equipment. I figure that the wild animals, if any would be more scared of me than Iam of them. The only animals I’m worried about are the Feral dogs in Ladakh. They can be quite vicious and I take care to avoid them. Or carry an ice axe in my hand to fight/scare them off. As far as I know, most animals are afraid of metallic sounds. So my plan is to clang the ice axe against some rocks to scare them off.

I'm sure that the results will show in time as long as I keep putting in the same effort as I do know. The road will be long and hard but like the cliche goes, it's all about the journey not the destination.

I wonder why you dont have first aid material in your backpack when you are traveling in the remotest areas and there in no one around to help you incase you sustain some injury.
