Gangotri
- Limited electricity supply means either you need to book a hotel with ample generator support or settle for a thick blanket.
- Maggi and coke are the most hygienic breakfast you will get in this part of country. The Gangotri village is small. Trek around to see natural land formations around.
- Gomukh is an overnight trip from here. The mouth of holy Ganges' origin has crumbled down.
We started from Hanumanchatti (Yamunotri base) for Gangotri at 10 and only stopped at Uttarkashi for lunch. En route to Gangotri we found a dam, the flowing water from which was creating a permanent rainbow. There was also a hot water spring some 40 km before our destination where we had bath.
