Telegraph - Garhwal Himalayas: trekking the Curzon Trail

An icy wind cuts over the ridge, kicking up shimmers of dust on the trail that leads to the view to end all views. At the lip stands a ragged red pennant, a prayer-flag marking the Kuari Pass. Apart from the wind, everything is deathly quiet – at 5am and 13,000ft the birds are slumbering, and the streams are still frozen.
