White to move and draw 

My friend made this interesting but very tricky puzzle.Even Stockfish need to spend some time to evaluate this position is a draw.

A very deep and have so many lines,a little careless you will lose.....But white have the same idea ----- stalemate 

Welcome everyone to think and discuss about it!!

Your idea is right,block your king into h5 and stalemate in the end.

but the move order is important,a little careless you will lose
