  • Indian Himalaya Soli S. Mehta
    Triennial Report 1972-4 Indian Himalaya Soli S. Mehta If evidence was required to prove that fantastic Alpine techniques have come to the Himalaya in a big way, a review of the targets and their style of ascents by compact and efficient teams of the last few years would serve admirably. Not much longer will we have the dull plod up endless snow-slopes-the numerous camps-the siege tactics. True, they are unlikely to disappear altogether but they should be all but swamped by the tide of Grade V-VI routes that are now being opened up both in the Indian Himalaya as well as in Nepal. It almost seems as if Denis Gray's article in a recent issue of the Alpine Journal on Himalayan Ethic has been taken seriously! This review is not chronological-I need the freedom to highlight those factors that would be lost in a purely chronological geographical treatment of events. Firstly then the major problems-Saser Kangri (7672 m) and Changabang (6864 m). Nobody who has followed the progress of Himalayan peak-bagging could have failed to note the importance of these summits which had defied strong challenges in the past. Saser particularly has severe problems of approach. The more ob- vious route appears to be from the SW. but having beaten all previous attempts from this direction, the Indo Tibet Border Police expedition led by Commander Joginder Singh tried the longer and more precipitous route from the Nand E in the spring of 1973. The several crossings of the mighty Shyok river were enough to slow down progress before and all but maroon the party after the ascent.

  • Tharkot, an Expedition to the Garhwal
    100 Tharkot, an Expedition to the Garhwal Barbara lones Photographs 40 -41 The Sunderdhunga valley leading to the southern rim of the Nanda Devi Sanctuary is relatively unfrequented by trekkers and mountaineers. It leads to a number ofpeaks over 6000m but many ofthe more dramatic ofthese - Maiktoli, Devtoli, Mrigthuni and Trisul are usually attempted by the more traditional northern approaches via the Sanctuary itself. Itwas from the north that one ofthe first explorations of this valley by Europeans was made, when Tilman and Shipton made their exit from the Sanctuary in 1934 by the Sunderdhunga Khal and the Maiktoli gorge. As our mountain, Tharkot, was on a ridge running south from the Sanctuary the southern approach was the most obvious and although short by Himalayan standards, had probably as much variety ofscene and beauty as most. The initial part ofthe walk-in crosses a ridge ofhills before descending into the Pindar valley. This section is heavily used by trekking groups en route for the popular Pindari glacier trek. It is not until Khati is left behind that a sense of wilderness and exploration begins to evolve. There is one village in the Sunderdhunga valley, Jatoli. This is a village of poor hill people who are being brought rapidly into the 20th century. At anyone time, over halfthe menfolk can be employed as porters on a trek or expedition, the popularity of the nearby Pindari glacier trek providing employment for a number ofnearby villages. The Garhwal Himalaya is noted for its beauty and the Sunderdhunga area is no exception. Forests of oak, chestnut and bamboo clothe the steep valley sides, whilst an impassable river roars along the bottom.
