Sikkim - Along the Singalila Ridge and Kangchenjunga south-east |
|||
On the way from Panding to Bikbari. A steep descent (before a steep ascent and another steep descent). We are still getting nice views of Koktang and Ratong. |
|||
Our camp in Bikbari with Ratong, Kabru and Kabru Dome. |
|||
Leaving the valley en route to Dzongri. Again with beautiful views of Koktang, Ratong and Kabru and the Dome. |
|||
Clearing the pass and last descent towards Dzongri with the summits of Ratong and Kabru in the background. |
|||
Chortens (or stupas) above Dzongri |
|||
Sunset from camp in Dzongri. I think that the mountain in the background is Pandim (6691m). |
|||
Sunrise from a view point above Dzongri. You get wonderful views of Kangchenjunga |
|||
From the same view point with my camera pointed a little to the left (south). In the front a small mountain called Black Kabur (apparently it is a holy mountain for the inhabitants of Yuksom) whilst behind you can see Kabru (note the small spelling difference but one is 2500m higher than the other) as well as Kabru Dome. |
