A pilgrim walks with stick on her hand and red muffler tied around her head, shawl wrapped around her shoulders

Size: 675×1024

On the trail between Taatopaani and Ghasa, Nepal, an elderly woman walks with a walking stick. She wears a woolen muffler tied around her head and shawls wrapped around her head and shoulders. The woman is probably a pilgrim on the way to Muktinaath, a sacred village at the summit of Dhaulagiri mountain in the Himalayas.
