There's a particular silence that you find in Pithoragarh that you don't find anywhere in the more visited hills. It's not the silence of emptiness- the market is lively, the temples are busy, the children walking home from school fill the lanes with noise. It's the silence of a place that hasn't had to perform for tourists yet. The Panchachuli peaks don't know they're being photographed.
