We are happy to announce that, Nanda Devi East Expedition 2013, has now received letter of approval from the Indian Mountaineering Foundation. One more step ahead. Now we wait for the clearance from the Uttarakhand Government and then the final approval from IMF again.

Surely the bureaucracy we have built around our mountains even are 'Himalayan'! It is very difficult to keep our sense of humor alive sometimes, but once you get used to the slow process ( or, know someone in India who can take care of the paper pushing for your expedition), Indian Himalaya is unbeatable.

It is less crowded. It is more diverse. And above all, there are still plenty of exploration opportunities left.

Cheers!
