OU1901 092-099 Feature Cycling Ladakh
Cycling Ladakh Catching breath on the road to Rangdum monastery PICTURE CREDIT: Stanzin Jigmet/Pixel Challenger Breaking the There's much more to Kate Leeming's pre- Antarctic expeditions than preparation. Her journey in the Indian Himalaya was equally about changing peoples' lives. WORDS Kate Leeming 92 93 Cycling Ladakh A spectacular stream that eventually flows into the Suru River, on the 4,000m plains near Rangdum nergy was draining from my legs. My heart pounded hard and fast, trying to replenish my oxygen deficit. I gulped as much of the rarified air as I could, without great success; at 4,100m, the atmospheric oxygen is at just 11.5 per cent, compared to 20.9 per cent at sea level. As I continued to ascend towards the snow-capped peaks around Sirsir La pass, the temperature plummeted and my body, drenched in a lather of perspiration, Estarted to get cold, further sapping my energy stores. Sirsir La, at 4,828m, is a few metres higher than Europe’s Mont Blanc, and I was just over half way up the continuous 1,670m ascent to get there. This physiological response may have been a reality check, but it was no surprise. The ride to the remote village of Photoksar on the third day of my altitude cycling expedition in the Indian Himalaya had always loomed as an enormous challenge, and I was not yet fully acclimatised. I drew on experience to pace myself: keeping the pedals spinning in a low gear, trying to relax as much as possible and avoiding unnecessary exertion. -

India's Best Kept Secret
Veronica Reilly India’s Best Kept Secret We are hurtling along the Highest Motorable Road in the World in a beat-up Jeep. The young Ladakhi driver, who seemed so kind and friendly back in the capital city, Leh, is clearly mad. He swings around blind hairpin turns on this single lane road carved out of a mountainside without the customary horn blaring. The almost continuous use of the horn is the way that people drive on these one-lane mountain roads in the high Himalaya without having frequent head-on collisions. Our driver likes the aspect of Himalayan driving custom that requires hurtling along at preposterous speeds, but does not accompany this reckless behavior with any- where near the requisite amount of horn usage. Himank, the road’s authority here, has even painted large signs black let- ters against a yellow background, on the bare rock walls above us that read, “Horn please.” Immediately to my left and thousands of feet below lies the rocky brown bottom of a ravine. There are only intermittent guardrails. I try to imagine that the window overlooking the precipice is actually a television screen. I breathe deeply and try to let go of my attachment to life. We are among Buddhists, after all. Perhaps our driver gains his cavalier attitude from a firm belief in reincarnation, a belief that I don’t share, although I am suddenly reevaluating the possibility. The beginning of the trip, several hours ago, was joc- ular, and the five of us, thrown together for just a few days, introduced ourselves. -

P: ISSN No. 2231-0045 RNI No. UPBIL/2012/55438 VOL.-7, ISSUE-2, November-2018 E: ISSN No. 2349-9435 Periodic Research Demographic Structure of Ethnic Tribes in Cold Desert Leh – Ladakh Abstract The present study was carried out on demographic structure of cold desert Leh- Ladakh. The analysis of the data reveals that the study area has a total population of 1, 33,487. Near about 77.49 percent of total population is a tribal population and is unevenly distributed. The major tribes are Bhots, Champas, Brokpas, Mons and Arghuns. The average physiological density of population is 260 persons / Km2. The overall literacy rate is 70.24 percent and varies among males and females. The average sex ratio is 690 females per thousand males that is less than the national average sex ratio of 943 females per thousand males. Majority of the population was engaged in secondary activities (45.72 %). Birth rate and death rate shows fluctuations with years and G. M. Rather there is declining trend in population growth from 1981 onwards. Sr. Assistant Professor Keywords: Demographic Structure, Tribal Population, Cold Desert Leh, Deptt.of Geography and Regional Physiological Density, Sex Ratio. Development, Introduction University of Kashmir, Population is defined as any finite or infinite collection of individual Srinagar, India objects. But in geography it refers to a congregation of human individual objects. The specialized study of population geography, began in early sixties with the presidential address delivered by Trewartha (Trewartha , 1953). Review of Literature According to Trewartha the scope of the field should include a treatment of all the variables present in the census schedule of advanced nation. -
Ladakh Subsate BSAP
DRAFT BIODIVERSITY STRATEGY & ACTION PLAN: SUB –STATE LADAKH 8. STRATEGY & ACTION PLAN The Action Plan below spells out detailed sets of action, jointly elaborated by the main stakeholders, which are meant to translate the strategies presented in the previous chapter into actual biodiversity protection on the ground. The underlying approach has been to design actions that are SMART, in other words Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time Bound. No systematic attempt has been made to define priorities between actions, locations and actors. However the sequence of actions as they are presented under the different strategies is broadly indicative of priorities agreed by the participants in the BSAP process. I.
