A walking day, decision already made that it's two nights here, so use the whole day. 
Circular wanders, a viewpoint that wasn't, the surrounding hills painted vague beneath layers of murk, distances lost. 
There's beauty here, a sense that on a clear day it'd captivate the visitor. But that's not today, plains and hillsides painted with the familiar tinge of smog. October. After the rains and on the cusp of low season. 
Later the air cleared, Dehradun sparkling below, faint stars above ridges stretching out, almost visible, into the night.
