The road was closed because women bikers group also want to pay tribute to our Nation Flag at KharDung La, so we started our journey around 9.30 am.

As we headed for journey so early, we enjoyed breakfast at South Pullu around 10.10 am , which is 28 km from Leh. South Pullu is 1st check post point for all travelles. We had beautiful view with hot Maggie and coffee.

After the south pullu the road was under construction, so we took more time to cover distance. The air became colder and thinner as we moved upward.
