Yumesamdong (Zero Point) in May
Where the road runs out of oxygen and names.

Why May here
The road-end plateau at about 15,300ft: snow, silence and thin air past Yumthang.
Yumesamdong, called Zero Point, is where the road ends at about 15,300ft: a snowbound plateau near the Tibetan border with a stillness that most visitors feel in their lungs as much as their ears. Walk short, walk slow.
What to do
The silence
Snow-plateau quiet at the road end.
