In the age of satellite pictures there exist many valleys in the Indian Himalaya, unseen by the human eye. These valleys, like the peaks around them, have never been trodden. Now that Everest has been climbed several times, the future of mountaineering lies in these smaller peaks, by no means easy to climb. This book contains articles covering the author's treks and climbs in the remote valleys during the past thirty years. It contains special stories of exploration of the area in Sikkim, Kumaun, Garhwal, Kinnaur, Spiti, Lahaul, Zanskar, Ladakh and East Karakoram. There are stories of crossing passes and climbing peaks, accidents and deaths, personal injury and agony. These articles givean insight into the Himalayan area, their history, its people and the period of development of Himalayan climbing in India during the last three decades.
