Fog Trail and Mountain Jazz

At seven in the morning, Tirtho's tired heel still hadn't touched the backpack straps. Hers was the only camera, so everyone used it for photos. The high cliffs along the mountain path hid under clouds. They began a slow hike. A warning sign stood beside the ridge hole. Ashik said, 'Within five hours we'll hook back onto the main trail.' Guide Mukul served as the trail's host, and everyone followed his cues. An hour after sunrise the fog began to thin. Spotting huge wildlife footprints, their excitement rose. The trail even cut into the village pond. In the afternoon a little jazz session played in the mountain square. They sipped tea while laughing at the mountain rain joke. A mini jury gathering honored their lawyer friend from the hills. Nitai said, 'Just keep the plan steady and move ahead.' In the drizzle, Mina opened her letter sealed with a kiss. The mountain homes showed a lack of modern amenities. Sister Parul was affectionately called the 'mountain lady'. They prepared for night with compact solar lamps. A revival song closed out the last performance. During the late stretch they camped beside the river.
