Well Auli it is.....booked and leaving on the 15th of Feb from Mumbai... anyone else going to be there around the same time?

Any tips on what to carry ?

Cheers

You will need a sunscreen.

thanks Ronak getting a list ready .. though hve much time...will update the entire list..

Also what about pants...better with tracks as jeans or cotton might get wet?

Carry normal trek pants may be 4 or 5. Also carry two pairs of inner thermal wears. You get these thermals at hoisery / remdymade garment stores. Can catch temp upto -10 deg. Wear the thermals inside and the normal trek pants over it. Thermal wear priced around Rs 500 to 600 per pair.

Wear in layers so if you feel it's getting warmer (It does get warmer at noon time - the sun rays hit you) you can remove outler layers. As suggested by Amit trek pants will be better.

Are u staying at Cliff Top Club? Phenomenally expensive place.
Or staying at GMVN and course with Cliff Top? Is that poss?

amarshah · Dec 5th, 2007, 10:51

Well am at Clifftop...it was a group booking, i am not aware of the cost yet. Well its done and not can be done abt it. I had been told GMVN was booked.

rishabh6296 · Dec 20th, 2007, 11:20

clifftop club would cost abt rs. 4000 for a double room on MAP.

amarshah · Dec 20th, 2007, 12:01

Right Rishab... but it seems we got a good deal as we 8 of us including stay on full board basis and training in two family bunglows at approx 1lac for 5 Nights. It also includes stay in Rishikesh 2 Nights and travel etc..

Works out to be approx 1500 per day with travel/training/stay/meals.. the works...Well not sure if it is a good deal or not but i think it is worth the try...

It does look like a good deal.

true Ronak so giving it a shot... lets see how it goes !

Solang Valley has best slope but no good hotels and no ski chair cars.

Auli has ski lifts but slope is not as steep as Solang.

But I agree with skiing at Narkanda...going to try myself...just waiting for a green signal to go !
