From Patalkhan we had to cross an exposed slope, where we fixed rope, for one slip can take you to the Rishi ganga. After a large rock fall area, we reached the vast plains of the Southern Sanctuary with excellent views of Nanda Devi. We decided to make our base here, next to a spring, from where different parties would visit various areas of the Sanctuary. This place was christened Chaubata (four paths) and a small temple was constructed and consecrated to mark our camp.[7]
From this base camp we had wonderful views of Nanda Devi but unfortunately the famed ‘Golden Sunset’, only for one evening. Soon everyone was busy in different activities in smaller sub-groups.
One of the first move was that Suman Dubey had to unfortunately leave next morning by helicopter as he developed high blood pressure. Two scientists, Dr. Sarfaraz and Anand Pendharkar, with a support team, made a camp ahead of Sarso Patal near the confluence of two glaciers; the Dakhini Nanda Devi glacier and the Dakhini Rishi glacier. They spent days collecting water samples, rock samples, observing bharals, birds and other fauna in the Sanctuary. Rupin Dang and his support team had filmed the entire route and the expedition on video and had undertaken many studies on the flora and fauna of the route. From Chaubata, they visited the Southern Sanctuary and higher slopes towards Nanda Dekhni Dhar before returning early on 16 June.
I stayed at Chaubata and organised the construction of a bridge across the Dakhini Rishi glacier so that we could visit the Northern Sanctuary. After great difficulties the bridge was made and team was about to cross over to visit Rishi Tal, a lovely lake in the Northern Sanctuary. However, due to the early arrival of monsoon, this plan had to be given up. The grand finale of our activities was two treks accomplished by Motup Chewang.
Sunderdhunga Khal (5550 m)
On 14 June, Motup with 2 Sherpas, Samgyal and Dukpu, left Chaubata and reached the Dakhini Rishi glacier where they camped at 4800 m. The next day, they traversed the upper slope, keeping above the glacier moraine and finally descending to cross the moraine. They climbed on the right of the glacier and camped on a small snow plateau at 5000 m. June 16 was partly cloudy and they started early, around 5.00 a.m. First they traversed under the slopes of peak ‘Cream Roll’, which is to the east of Sunderdhunga col. The western slopes of Sunderdhunga col[8] are broken and avalanched regularly. They emerged a little above Sunderdhunga col on the east and descended to the col at 8.00 a.m. They saw a small clearing for camping on the south of the pass as well as an old cairn, possibly made in 1934.
After half an hour they returned and the descent was quick and they returned to Chaubata the same evening, tired but satisfied. This had been a strenuous outing but they had the satisfaction of clear views and being the first party in 67 years to reach the Sunderdhunga col, after Shipton- Tilman in 1934.
We were poised to enter the Northern Sanctuary when persistent bad weather turned in to heavy rain. On 19 June, monsoon arrived in the area, a couple of weeks earlier than usual. The radio was issuing warnings. As we had to descend the dreaded Rishi gorge on return, it seemed wiser to call off the expedition and return to the Lata village. Very carefully, we re-crossed the difficult sections of the Rishi gorge and we crossed some of the high passes amidst heavy rain, which was a harrowing experience.
Nanda Dekhni Dhar
The rain did not stop our last exploration. Motup, Samgyal and our guide, Kalyan Singh, decided to return across the high col above Chaubata.
This pass connects the inner Sanctuary with Trisul nala and was used by enterprising shepherds to bring the flock into the inner Sanctuary. They discovered several cairns erected by them during 1978 – 1982.[9]By using this route shepherds could bring the herds into the inner sanctuary, which was one of the reasons why the area had to be closed.
They started from Chaubata on 19 June in rather uncertain weather. At first they traversed across 3-4 steep gullies to reach a small nala to Patalkhan. They climbed up this nala and camped at 5000 m, having walked almost 7 hours that day. This camp was a little below the Nanda Dekhni Dhar. Views from this camp were vast and exquisite. Peaks of the North Sanctuary, Trisul nala, Dunagiri and distant peaks of Chaukhamba group were visible though Nanda Devi remained under cloud.
20 June was a brilliant day. First they descended a little to cross the slopes of the upper Bhujgara nala and finally reached the col and crossed over into the Trisul valley. The descent was steep, across gullies going south and traversing towards Tridang, the base camp of Trisul. They descended to 4400 m over a few grassy slopes but mostly rocky gullies. They found several cairns up to the lowest point they reached in the Trisul nala, indicating that this was the route used by the shepherds in the past. However on the lower slopes a large section had broken off and they tried traversing on a small ridge for almost four hours, trying to locate a route across the ridge. This would have allowed them to descend to the Trisul nala. However, finding no route, they had to climb back to the col and camp above the Bhujgara nala completing a long day of 12 hours. Next day they started to descend the Bhujgara nala and joined the traditional route through the Rishi gorge.
Their exertions were not in waste. With more time and clear weather, it will be possible to complete this route, from Tridang to Chaubata, by traversing diagonally across from Tridang which is traditional base camp for climbing Trisul. It offers the lower and probably, a less difficult access to the Inner Sanctuary.[10] A team can climb to the Nanda Dekhni Dhar to obtain excellent views of the Inner Sanctuary, without suffering the difficulties of the Rishi gorge or disturbing the Inner Sanctuary. This could be one of the environment friendly solutions for the future of the sanctuary.
The objective of our expedition was to study and make recommendations on the environment and ecology of the Sanctuary. All along the trail we discussed these issues as well as measures necessary to protect the fragile environment. These have been complied in a detailed report and submitted to the Indian Mountaineering Foundation.[11]
Being the abode of goddess Nanda the peaks and the Sanctuary is venerated by people and poets for centuries. Environmentalists, scientists (even nuclear scientists), historians, politicians, poachers, medicinal plant gatherers, forest contractors, local residents, activists, government, forest officials, trekkers, agents, and international climbing community – everyone has an interest and views on the affairs of the goddess and its Sanctuary. With her benevolent smile this ‘bliss giving’ goddess blesses all as the juggernaut moves on.
On one of the last evenings in the Sanctuary, we camped at Ramani, on the banks of the Rishi river. Alone in my tent, I could observe the Rishi ganga in spate. The river was rushing faster than the Rajdhani Express (the fastest train in India), roaring louder than any industrial unit and was powerful enough to generate many units of electricity. That sight itself was a coupe de grace. The power and divinity of even one river was enough to fight for and preserve it.
This power, I realised, was directly pitted against the power of the human mind. Is this where the conflict was? On the one hand the human mind wants to borrow beauty, peace and power from the Rishi and on the other, the same mind has led to the destruction of the mighty rivers and their environs. But then, an uncontrolled Rishi can also destroy everything in its wake. Maybe the power of the river and the power of the human mind are incomplete without each other. Where do we find the balance, that ‘Golden Mean’ to preserve this mighty river and the Nanda Devi Sanctuary, as well as feed the human desire to borrow from it by visiting such environs ? Like in Fritjof Capra’s philosophy, how do we achieve the ‘Tao of Rishi’?

[3] All future expeditions and trekking teams are advised that no such permits and
payment is required to be made to any villages in this area for visiting Nanda Devi
Sanctuary.
[4] Chipko
This area has a history of protests related to forestry rights. In the past the well- known Chipko Movement originated from the area. The Chipko movement (literally ‘hug the trees’) was started from the village Reni which is situated at the entrance to the Sanctuary, by Ms Gaura Devi in 1976. The village women embraced trees to prevent the forest contractors from cutting it. This became a well-known idea and received much coverage the world over. She was given a medal and some money. Later Sunderlal Bahuguna (Tehri Garhwal) and Chander Prasad Bhatt of Gopeshwar entered the movement and took charge of it. Ms Gaura died in 1996 and today Chipko movement is not active.
[5] In early literature it the pass is mentioned as ‘Malathuni’. Malatoni is the correct spelling as on the present maps and used by the local villagers.
[6] The history of exploration of the route to the Nanda Devi Sanctuary are covered in several books and articles. For a brief coverage see ‘Story of the Nanda Devi Sanctuary’ in Meeting the Mountains (by Harish Kapadia, Indus, New Delhi, 1998).
[7] Chaubata (four paths): Four routes meet here: (a) The route from the Rishi Gorge, (b) route (via Sarso Patal) to the Nanda Devi base camp, Devtoli and Maiktoli base camp, Sunderdhunga khal in the Southern Sanctuary. (c) Route to the North Sanctuary, across the Rishi ganga river to Rishi Tal and all the peaks in the Northern Sanctuary and (d) Route for climbing to the Nanda Dekhni Dhar which crosses into the Trisul nala. This trail was used by shepherds to cross into the Sanctuary.
