How far is 3 kms?
Pretty far,... if you are at 2500m.... and climbing rough cut stairs.
Especially, if the steps are leading to the temple of Bijli Mahadev.
Your heart hammers against your ribcage...almost ready to jump out.
Your ego takes a beating.... when the local womenfolk march up the steps carrying sacks of grain, and there you are... struggling with a Magnesium alloy camera.
You promise to get wedded to the treadmill, once you get back to reasonable levels of altitude.
About a lifetime later, sitting on the precincts of the 9th century temple, it all feels worth the while.
