Gaddi, Kukti Pass (16,000 ft) from the Lahaul side. (As for 4.10.11a, but a better photo.) Autumn migration south. There are two flocks visible one fairly low down, approaching the pass, and the other on the ridge of the nearside shoulder of the hill. Cracks in the snow covering of the glacier are visible.
Gaddi, Kukti Pass (16,000 ft) from the Lahaul side. Autumn migration south. There are two flocks visible the front of one is approaching the top of the pass, while the followers are crossing the steep, dangerous gullies where rocks fall from melted ice. Another flock is in the middle distance, in a shadow below a patch of old ice.
