. The drive takes round about four hours to Changla Pass. At the
first sight of the lake through the 'V' of the ridges of the valley
all cameras, digital videos etc. came tumbling out. The azure lake
beautifully set off the golden yellow of the mountainside, painted
thus by the mellow rays of the evening sun, on a canvas of crisp
blue sky. Considered to be the most arduous and at the same time
exhilarating is the cross country jeep drive to the Pong valley.
