After a long one hour easy trek, this comparative steep and continuous hike matters a lot

Here comes the first unpleasant withdrawal from the trek. Safeer have to quit the trek as he was feeling bad. He wasn't 100% from a couple of previous days but he plans to come with us at a certain point of pleasure. I was with him from last half an hour and even he analyzed his situation to go back to jeep. Not a good sign but it happened in treks to do the situational things:(

Team watching towards road side...from where we were coming. From here another incident happened. I feel a soreness in my left eye. I feel as it started suddenly. might be due to a biting effect of any flying insect. At that time it was just normal but the pain was much significant when we reached back to the last part of the trek in return leg
