Climbing is still in old times in India

Climbing is still in it's primitive sorm in India. Such a huge mountain range but it still does not make any quality gear...no skiing and no hardware for climb.

Paying feeses and royalty is again a big issue...sposnsors are few ...this makes me bit worried about future of climbing in India.

Glacier broke- Friendship Peak

Part of Glacier of Friendship Peak has been damaged and in a avalaunche...it had drop down. This makes further "E" route little longer and now new route to the summit will be explored.
