Al about 110 km from map I went to have a morning pee and heard that outside there's some like radio playing I asked our host what's going on is this some kind of a morning tradition here in this Village and he said that no it starts at 6 6:00 a.m. in the morning and ends at 6:00 in the afternoon or in the evening and it's just apparently just music and political speeches uh decreed by the government silence shouldn't be taken for granted I guess this is what Alis was talking about well well well well well well it's fun uh we were wondering how do they keep these houses warm what do they burn there is zero trees within hundreds of kilometers and they burn cow [ __ ] nice circular economy [ __ ] yeah [Music] likely going to be the coldest night of the trip so far we're at exactly 4,000 m right now and uh Sun just setting it's already pretty cold smells and tastes like a farm depends do you like Farms is that good or bad in 2 km we'll be at the highest point of the trip 4,650 M the last climb there feels like breathing through a straw again the top [ __ ] I'm pooped wow my Garin says 4725 [ __ ] that was crazy next up gako Lake from where we start to approach the Kyan border what up last night's days Tajikistan kistan is over those mountains there Germany's right there and Germany right there China is right there China is right there China use some Chinese food tajan is great and everything but the food it's not known for its food let's put it down for like guess what we are in and the neutral zone between Kyan and Tajikistan [ __ ] M it one battle to win war is not over as Kyan border guers who might or might not know that we're coming so let's hope they don't shoot us as we go around this turn we made it bro off off [Music] yeah love woo [Music] [Music] d [Music] [Laughter] [Music] d [Music] J is quite the ulture shock after the peaceful STS extremely humid traffic is crazy have no s cards we need to find a place to sleep tonight it's just extremely hectic I understand Eastern religions are so infused with mindfulness and meditation you go mad without know living in a place like this meditation is the only balance of this [ __ ] [Applause] craziness feel the good energ energy vibrating through my whole body from my legs next up rishikes another holy town on the ganji river pretty nice piece after all that chaos of City [Music] continues just about to top off 600 M incline definitely delivering climbing never felt so good we're at only 1,000 M altitude and for our lungs this is uh this is super easy after Tajikistan and kistan wow look at these views it is a bit sweaty though but now a well-deserved downhill yeah I don't think we're putting music this time bud you got a friend me you ain't got no leg we're uh looking for a place to stay and uh many people said go to Baba something Baba Khali Kadesh I guess have said sorry no foreigners so kind of sucks but uh they said go try the temple so we're going to go see if we can sleep here no luck from the temple however our friend recommended as a spot for our tent or just our sleeping bags which is here better views than from any other the hotels on that side of the river wow spend the night here going for a night dip in uh in the Holy River hopefully doesn't take me away with it it's eco-friendly so it don't work and uh and if it wasn't be the least of worries for this this River we got ourselves a little fif over over there looking at what kind of [ __ ] can I steal from these guys what do you want my guy it's not actually rain ganga from the sky wo this looks fresh w this is fresh still got rocks rolling after seeing all the kinds of Boulders and [ __ ] on the road we really hope we don't get to witness one of these things falling [Music] down you're wondering where we're going we're going uh to Chia Cori uh none of the locals have known when we've mentioned this place so that's a good sign It's a Small hidden village with just a few homestays uh and apparently pretty nice nice view of the [Music] Himalayas I'm sick again we in ch the mountains are marvous when they're not in the clouds I think we're going to be here one more day so I can get the flu [Music] away [Music] often when we're in these towns these small towns in the mountains people are so interested in us that uh just now we just Coss a small traffic jam here since a lot of people stop in their cars and just stare at us for no reason and just look at Val over there there's about eight people helping him out so definitely curious people these Indians are I love it 17 km

kilometers is Tiger Zone tiger on the road on the road problem uh tiger populations have doubled and two people have been eeden this year already uh in this area and everybody strongly advised us not
