Hi,
If you planning for Kauripass then make From Auli becuase if you start from Auli you will fount little up if you start from Tapovan then it will be steep up so you decide that which route you like but if you want go to anoter valley then Kauripass-panyaudyar-ransi-ghat.
about Guide when you trek in the mountain so try to always took experinced guide & he will help for all thing like porter,lodge & in some Emergency.

What I still want to confirm is whether Hemkund is at all possible in first week of April. I know it is officially closed, but still can an attemt be made. There is no point in going to VOF at this time coz flora it is famous for wont be there.

What i have gathered till now is that there two main routes to Kuari pass. One is from Gursa to Chitrakantha and Galgarh. The other from Joshimath to Tapovan and Khulara. I was thinking of taking the latter route. Taking a jeep upto Tapoban and proceeding on the trek after that or . Is there something wrong here.

And how difficult this trek would be without a guide?

And yes we wont go without a guide now.

Thanks for your comments, which I have conveyed to my spouse who took the photographs. Your determination is impressive. Good luck, and happy trekking!

Raghu.
