Nanda Devi, a photo from Uttarakhand, North

Photographer's Note

This is a closer view of the Nanda Devi. It was taken at the same place as my previous post.
You can only see the Nanda Devi East, on the left, and the main peak at its right.
The Nanda Devi was climbed for the very first time in 1936 by Odell and Tillman. They came from the Sanctuary, in the north-west, a place forbidden nowdays.
If you want to climb this mountain, you have to go to the base camp near Martoli, in the south of Pashu.

Hi Stphane,
Just now I've seen your Nandadevi shots taken from Pachu glacier. These are stunning. Nandadevi is my dream peak. It's really a great mountain shot.

Manas

Salut Stephane,
Une vue fabuleuse! Quelle somptuosit� et clart�! Le PdV est parfait et tu l'a profit� tr鑣 bien. J'aime bien la succession d'arches invertis, presque triangles.
Bravo et TFS!
Amicalement, Jos�.
