With not much snowfall in the mountains in winters-people of plains of NORTH INDIA are having very bleak future. Himalayas is changing very fast and weather is playing very important role in effecting lives of people.
With careless and corrput ruling of DELHI-we are going to see very HIGH DRAMA soon.

In this picture-EROSION seen in not result of thousands of years but just within 10 years-this whole erosion has reached from top to bottom.

Zero point has comes towards valley side almost 500m in last 10 years. In this scale-we will be having a dramatic changes in topography of himalayas....very very soon !!

Both Mr. ROGER and PATRICK spent very memorable days here...and no doubt these are one of the best pictures taken.

FOR FUTURE REFF: A trail goes towards NANDA DEVI BASE CAMP from right side of the picture.
You have to have INNERLINE PERMIT to do this trek but you can do this twin trek...
