A further drive takes you to the beautiful Hemis National Park and we are camping for two nights in the vicinity of a small but charming monastry alongside the flowing indus river. As is typical of a camp, all our needs of water are from the pristine river. have a look at this beautiful place where I spot my lifers - the Bharal, Fire-fronted Serin & the Chukor
