From " THE HINDU " dt. 8th July , Friday
" An official spokesman said Manali-Leh road was closed due to snowfall on Baralacha and Rohtang Pass and extensive damage to road due to landslides. Hundreds of tourists, including 70 foreigners, were stranded at various places. " More:- http://www.hindu.com/thehindu/holnus...0507080390.htm http://www.himtimes.com/national2.html#nt0

It's really difficult to get much accurate information about the Leh - Manali road here in Manali. Travel agents are saying that jeeps will be leaving tomorrow morning and a friend of mine here has been told that it will be possible for her to begin cycling to Leh in the morning. On the other hand the media reports reproduced on IM plus those I have seen in the paper suggest a potentially dangerous situation with snow, mountain sickness etc.
It's very difficult to make much of an informed choice! |

Manali-latest Situation
Travel agents could be wrong-they are interested in montetary benifits only.
latest news is that road is open upto KULLU and further treffic is moving VIA NAGGAR to MANALI. High passes of ROHTANG and BARALACHA LA has received snow -even SPITI AND KAHUL has seen snow. I think-it is not safe to move from MANALI to LEH for another 10 days. |
