The mountain and the snow
When you reach the lap of Nanda Devi, height 25,643 feet and second only to the Everest, you are overwhelmed.

The nearest mountain ranges of Dronagiri seem bare, stripped of snow, in the peak of winter.

The Brahmkamal peak with spikes resembling the actual flower is an instant hit.

So is Hathi Ghoda Palki with the glaciers clearly visible. But we came here to see and feel snow. Where are the snowflakes? On 24 February, it snowed for nearly fifteen minutes. Our new friend from the hotel wrote in her diary
" Snowflakes-some slow, some fast, some feisty doing a jig before succumbing to gravity...."
Honeymooning couples danced on the terrace in the snow
Sunrise on Nanda Devi-a picture I laboured to get right on a cold morning at 6.30 am

Wow, such majestic Mountains. I have only been as high as 14,000 feet. It must have been amazing to take in such beautiful views.
I have not read such an article to date. It's great. Thanks for sharing. I really appreciate you sharing this. Also, there are some national parks in India known for the tiger safari, The Satpura Tiger Reserve package is best for you.
