On the trail between Taatopaani and Ghasa, Nepal, a woman walks toward Muktinaath, a sacred pilgrimage site for both Hindus and Buddhists. Muktinaath is a village at the summit of Dhaulagiri Mountain in the Mustang District of Nepal, in the Himalayan mountain ranges. The woman carries a bag on her back, secured by a strap across her forehead.
