There is nothing quite like the feeling of the Bay Area breeze hitting your face while “Mana Ma Sharmili” plays on the speakers!
Today, the trails of Northern California felt a little more like the hills of Kumaon and Garhwal. From the tech hubs to the hiking trails, we carry our Rangwali Pichodi and our culture wherever we go.
Seeing everyone vibing to our roots—dancing, laughing, and trekking—reminded us that no matter how many miles we are from home, Uttarakhand is always in our hearts. ❤️
Huge shoutout to the UMA (Uttarakhand Mandal of America) family for making the 2026 Hike an unforgettable one! 🥾
