Milam Part II

As we move out of Nahar
Devi we reach this small temple under the cliff.

Winter is approaching and
sheep are going to lower hills. No rules here, you better move out of the way.

We came here following
this trail.

Don't worry, there is a
good path climbing up this section.

The team half way up the
climb.

The camp of survey party
at Mapang.

Gori flows between high
rising hills on both sides and it seems like a suitable place for a dam.

Pabadli gad flowing from
Shalang Dhura coming to meet Gori.

Across the Pabadli gad
the trail climbs up. The lower trail was damaged and so we used the upper one.

A Shepard's camp above
Gori..

The trail follows the
Gori with small climbs and descents.

The Rilkot village, we
are now in the rain shadow zone.

Hotel at the Rilkot
village.

The trail beyond Rilkot
can be seen climbing all the way up to old Rilkot on the flat above Gori..

The upper trail goes to
Martoli village and the one going down goes to the Lawn gad.

We took the trail going
down and saw the horses returning to road head from Martoli village.

The log bridges on the
Lawn gad.

Our trail ahead of Lawn
gad along the Gori.

As we looked back, the
Martoli peak dominated the scene and the trail going to Martoli from the bridge
on Lawn gad can be seen.

We cross the gate way to
heaven..

The trail is not much of
a problem

Burphu gad coming from
Burphu glacier. The Burphu village can be seen beyond it in the centre.

The bridge across Gori
takes us to the right bank and to the Burphu village. The straight trail goes to
Panchhu and Ganghar villages.

Burphu gad meeting Gori.

The trail we had followed
to reach Burphu village.

Meat of freshly
slaughtered sheep hangs in the sun for drying.

Shri Gokaran Singh at
whose hotel we stopped for tea.

The Birjeganj Dhura is
snowed out due to sudden heavy snowfall in the upper reaches. Across it is Ralam
village and glacier.
