Today’s trek can be strenuous in ways depending on the snow situation and the condition of the ice on the trail. Our trail will be marked by religiously significant stone chortens that is made as a memorial mound for Buddhist people. We also cross snow slopes between 2 ribs and some crevasses. The climb can be on the steeper side but we will be using all safety measures to ensure responsible trekking. We will find that the views are breath taking. The rivers flow on either sides of the pass and into the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea.
