The sun feels really harsh at such altitudes. And walking behind grazing cows can often result in one spending a little more than comfortable time sweating in the open.
And in such situations, the shade of a tree and a source of fresh water source are the best reliefs possible.
Aunty and I took a nice little break under the Khanoor Tree, drinking refreshing cold mountain water from the small pool under the Khanoor Tree. We are now energised enough for the walk back home!
