Trekking and Mountaineering this summer

crazyd1amond

Hey
was wondering if you guys could answer a couple of queries:

First of all, what are the dates for the BMC at NIM this year?Where can i find out?

Is there any course at NIM that will allow my 15 yr old younger sister n I to go together?(my parents are a wee bit paranoid ... )

Also which out of the Sar Pass, Saurkundi Pass n Kedarkanta treks conducted by the Youth Hostel Association do u think is the best n would reccomend?

Is the WHMI in Manali any good?

Elektra

Of the 3 treks mentioned, I would recommend Sar Pass. Yeah, it's a bit tough if you are a first timer, but you will definitely enjoy it. Its worth all the hard word
I would grade these treks in this order ..
Sar Pass > Kedarkantha > Saurkundi.
