Kangchenjunga from Pelling


The evening I arrived in Pelling, West Sikkim, after a long and very rough ride involving several changes of jeep, Kangchenjunga and the adjacent mountains hid behind cloud. By morning, though, most of the cloud had cleared, and I'd had a good enough sleep to get out of bed and walk down the road to watch the sunrise on these spectacular mountains.

A beautiful image of a magnificent mountain.
I couldn't climb them (I had difficulty getting up to the lookout platform a quarter way up Te Aroha!) But I respect from the foot!
When do you return to NZ?

gz, thank you. I have just over two weeks left here in India before flying out. Back to the Pohangina Valley on the 20th.
