Ravi Valley. On the glacier, where we found the lamb, below the Kali Hind Pass, 15,000 ft. The Barabangahal side. The first trek. Good detail of the gaddi’s tweed chola and tweed hat.
Below the Kali Hind Pass, Bara Bangahal (side). Shepherd wearing ‘chola’ and wool cap, with lamb in his lap. John Keay and I, on our first trek Shimla to Sringar, had found it high on the pass and brought it down. He was climbing up looking for it. This and its companion photo of same man looking through our binoculars, have became well regarded.
Camp site on a ridge above Lambadukh, below Kali Hind Pass. Chamba, Tanjin and Sonam. This was John Keay and my first trek, from ‘Shimla to Srinagar’ . We had been were held up trying to get a permit to pass The Inner Line into Lahaul. Ultimately unsuccessful, so we had to go via Barabangahal, Kukti, Bramour, Chamba, and Kilar.
