trek in west Arunachal Pradesh

Hi,
Recently did 5day trek in western Arunachal Pradesh, IT WAS MIND BLOWING. We did altitudes ranging from 6000ft to 9000ft. I along with friends from a outfit called rawtourism packed our tents and gear onto mules and yaks along with porters,cooks the works.We trekked through mixed forest, sometimes only pine and quaint Monpa villages.I believe its possible to trek to the higher reaches but not in winter(oct - mar.

trek

Hi,
Yes , the cost for the trek worked out to approximately Rs.35,000( roughly) additional expenses are getting from gauhati to destination.Keep in mind that to enter Arunachal Pradesh you need a tourist inner line permit. And you can check out rawtourism @ www.rawtourism.com.
Hope things workout for you.Any more questions?

I have been trying to e-mail these guys at raw tourism but keep getting mail delivery failure. Do you have an email address for any of them other than that listed on their website?

Surely that is the total expense your group incurred.Can you give the per head expense? It will be also very helpful if you can outline your route/ itinerary for our reference.
