I think Gangotri opens around April, so in Feb it will not be accessible. You will not get any transport, food, accommodation and also keep the permit matter from Uttarkashi which probably you will not be able to collect at that time. More of all the snow condition at that time will be bad, so in my opinion, perish the idea and try some other low altitude snow treks like Har Ki Doon etc.

Thanks Roy. You saved me a lot of time. Makes things clear. Can u suggest options for low altitude treks. Surely would like to touch & feel the snow. Never done before.

Thanks
