Partners in North India - Longshot

[TobiasT]

I find myself transplanted from the Cascades, teaching in the foothills of Uttarakhand, in Mussoorie. I have a about a month in June to climb and other random weeks to get out and look for ice and rock. There is not much of a mountaineering community here that I've found, so if anyone has any ideas of where to find motivated partners let me know. I'm comfortable on long trad routes, mixed terrain, experienced above 6000m, and am WFR.

Best,

Tobias

Try getting in touch with Dave at High Himalayan Adventure (in Vashisht, near Manali). He has a website.

If you are in Mussorie then get in touch with Krishnan Kutty at the Hanifl Center http://haniflcentre.in/

 

Kutty headed the India operations for NOLS for many years. He has been a regular visitor to Bellingham/Seattle for decades.

 

We climbed Banderpoonch ( visible from Mussorie) together a couple of years back.

 

Cheers!
