Camped atop a 16,000+ foot pass, ski mountaineer Allan Pietrasanta looks back at some of the gorges his team followed during an expedition across India's Great Himalaya Range from Ladakh to Kashmir. Just hours later, on the other side of the pass, the team was caught in an avalanche and the photographer crushed two vertebrae, but the group finished their journey under their own power.
