Itinerary description
3 to 4 hours.From mid-June to the end-August the Durmordo River,draining from the Panmah Glacier,is too swollen to wade,so you must trek about 1.5 km upriver to Jula bridge.The route is vertiginous 'path' across the cliff face with a death drop into the swirling river below.Jhula is a rather dusty camp surrounded by a few bushes about 20 minutes beyond bridge towards south,with silted side stream for water.Jhula camp site has prepared camping grounds and wash-rooms.
