Into the Freezing Himalayas: Dayara Bugyal Summit

Welcome back to another adventure on @TravellingEngineersStudios ! 🏔️❄️ We are kicking off an epic winter expedition to the stunning Dayara Bugyal in Uttarakhand with Trek Up India! In this travel vlog, we start our journey from the massive Dehradun airport, catch a bus from Prince Chowk, and take a breathtakingly scenic drive up into the Himalayas to reach the remote and beautiful Raithal Village. With temperatures feeling like -7°C and fresh snow falling, the real challenge begins! Watch as we rent our essential winter trekking gear (spikes, poles, and ponchos), fuel up on a local breakfast, and start our steep 4.5 km ascent toward the Gui Campsite. From navigating rocky trails and dense forests to witnessing our first snow of the season and experiencing the reality of Himalayan "five-star" dry toilets, this is a raw, beautiful, and hilarious start to our summit journey.
