Treks and Passes of Himachal Himalayas
by Sh. S.R Saini
Sh. S.R.Saini has served in the Directorate of Mountaineering and Allied Sports Manali for more than 30 years. He has trekked exhaustively in the Himachal Himalayas. Dhauladhar and Pir-Panjal Ranges have remained his favorites and his incessant trekking sojourns in these two mountain ranges have taken shape of another book namely ‘The Treks and Passes of Dhauladhars and Pir Panjal’.
This book is not just a travel guide but it encapsulates Sh. S. R Saini’s thirty years of experience and his love for the Himalayas. Unlike new-age multicolored travel books, this book is more substance and less glitter. Having spent almost his entire life in the Himalayas, Saini has lived the culture, traditions, and rituals of the Himalayas. His knowledge of Himalayan culture and lifestyle is a major plus for Saini’s book.
