Chadar Ice trekking - Frozen River, Timeless journey

Chadar means a white sheet in Hindi. This is synonymous to the landscape of this region especially for the Zanskar River when in winter the ambient temperature of the region fall below zero degree celsius. The river freezes making a white sheet of ice above it. One can walk over this sheet of Ice and is one of the routes used by the locals to reach Leh during winter from Zanskar. In the recent past this adventurous route has been much sought after by adventure loving people to make a trek of their life time experiencing some of the toughest terrains on earth. This is a presentation of the trek undertaken by two photographer friends which ended up in making some fine landscapes from the region and experiences that can be boasted along for a life time. Please see the Prezi presentation to enjoy the travel experiences in words and images.
