Glimpses from Pahad

Panchachuli glacier

Where the Panchachuli glacier ends and the waterfalls begin above Dugtu

Dozens of waterfalls pour down a dark rock face, each one starting where the glacier ends. It’s the Panchachuli glacier, melting in the June sun.

All Glimpses

  • A thin sliver of the setting sun, bright pink and yellow, hanging in a dark gray haze above a shadowed slope with patches of snow. A blurred tree branch frames the top of the frame, with a band of orange sky behind it.

  • Five prayer flags hanging on a line in the foreground, out of focus, with snow-covered Himalayan peaks in sharp focus behind them under a pale evening sky, dark forested ridges below.

  • Panchachuli V, a snow-covered peak coming to a sharp point, rising above a thick horizontal band of cloud under a deep blue sky, with a lower snow slope faintly visible at right and a dark ridge of conifers across the foreground.

  • A clear blue high-altitude lake with stones visible under the water near the shore, small stacked stone cairns on the rocky bank, and bare brown mountain ridges under a deep blue sky.

  • A winding hill road with a white edge line, pine trees on a sunlit slope to the left under a blue sky. The right side of the frame is filled with dense white fog that partly hides a pine tree and the hillside beyond. Black and yellow marker posts stand at the road's edge.

  • Layers of forested hills with the town of Almora spread across a ridge in the middle distance, and a row of snow-covered Himalayan peaks along the horizon under a clear blue sky.

  • Snow-covered Panchachuli peaks along the horizon under a clear blue sky, with forested ridges below rising out of valleys filled with white cloud, and dark tree branches in the foreground.

  • Multiple waterfalls streaming down a steep gray rock face into a narrow gorge, the tallest fall emerging from low cloud at the top of the frame, with green slopes at the lower left.
