HIMALAYA - Into Thin Air

  • 3,005 meters

Himalaya is a basic two lodge affair. However, here you will be entering avalanche prone area. While the chances of seeing one let alone being hit is rather rare, you can never be too careful. Do not loiter around these areas for photographs. We will let you know of avalanche gullies when you come close to one. But basically avalanches share pathways with streams, so whenever there is a stream or a waterfall, chances are very high that, it is also an avalanche gully. In the meanwhile, look for Himalayan Tahrs in the slopes to the west from here onwards. Your chance of seeing Tahrs is especially high if there has been recent snowfall in the upper stretches, or just come back in winter.
