The symbol is a Tibetan letter pronounced 'AH' . It is a seed syllable used in countless mantras and tantric Buddhist visulizations. Each trip with this letter indicates that participants will have much exposure to various aspects of Tibetan Buddhist culture while trekking and/or touring.

The other symbols are artistic renderings of light visions experienced by Dzogchen (Great Perfection) practitioners. All three of the symbols are details from murals of the Lu Khang in Lhasa.
