Finally after half an hour or a bit more , we found a short plain patch and it was tempting to a short staying area. There was a natural spring beside it so, we filled our water bottles here. The altitude of deserted hotel was about 2300m and the altitude of Spin khawar is 3230m. So we have to cover about 950m with in a span of 6km of total trek

A mighty one in the lush green valley. We choose our way upto water fall and from a suitable place crossed the flow of the nala and entered into the rocky area mainly consisting of big boulders and need some climbing expertise too . Me was starting to lead from the the back then
