Great report kshastry, very useful and great photos.
Getting to Srinagar.
There will be a train to Srinagar early next year, it left Delhi yesterday but is experiencing delays. (only joking)
The new line to Srinagar is expected to be completed early next year.
There are flights to Srinagar from Leh (Indian Airlines), Mumbai (Go Air & Air Sahara), Jammu and Delhi (many airlines from Jammu and Delhi).

SOS: Missing Person...
Please look at this thread, even if you are not in India.: Have you seen Jonathan Spollen?
He could be anywhere now: You might have met him, be able to help, or give information.

Say from Jammu to Srinagar by train & Srinagar to Jammu by road. Both the journeys will be equally rewarding scenery wise.

Less expensive way is to take JKSRTC bus from Srinagar to Sonmarg (cost Rs.170). At Sonmarg take a shared Sumo ride to Baltal (Rs.50). From Baltal I have heard, a pony would cost Rs.1800-2000 for a return ride to holy cave.

Great report great pictures I am glad u didn't get riped off by touts and houseboat people, I thought train was scheduled star in the valley form Qazikud to Srinagar this July, I don't know how true it is, It would be awesome to go by train from Jammu to Srinagar
