@lsd-25
gud ittenary
i'll soon upload my pics of Sarahan, Kalpa & Sangla Valley
the trek to sangla kanda is quite easy & the lake at the top jus makes even more better 
also in Sarahan the trek to Bashal peak is v. very demanding think twice b4 going & if u want to go kepp atleast 2 dayz for rest after it belive me u'll need it 
the problem with valuing art is, till u dont understand it, it's worthless but wen u do understand it, it's priceless!! |

Hey some good macro photography there bro.
i have few questions for sangla kanda is there a trekkers hut available at the lake, and how's the trail to shivaling pass is it well defined ?
I got bit by a DOg man, my trip is postponed for july now.  but neways its rainin cats and dogs in that area these days, so i am lucky if i take out a positive out of it.

well those huts u see at the lake are not exactly trekkers hut but u can talk to the local folks there (mostly sheppards & seasonal farmers) u can take rest in it.
the trek to shivaling pass i've heard is well defined as it's is a modrate traffic route taken by sheppards & treakkers but i'm not sure as i'vent been there personally.
p.s. go there in aug. it'll be better

well oct. is quite late if u wanna venture in high altitude places sumthing like mantalai or sumthin, the problem is in late oct. it can snow in these places catching u unaware & unprepared so look out for that one
if u jus gonna chill in kasol or kalga or even kheerganga u'll enjoy the touch of snow
happy rubbing my friend

@ssa .. good to hear from you .. Yea the basic plan to go up there and chill .. Even if I can head upto kheerganga that would work perfect for me .. But I would be spending most of my time in Kalga ..
I got weather in mind .. I`ll be keeping a check on it.. Lets see how it goes ..
Rubbing will happen ... 
Cheers !!
