Patangani Dhar - Audens Col - Mayali Pass
There exists an overland route connecting the Gangotri shrine with Kedarnath shrine in Indian Himalayas. But this route is over high passes and glaciers and an invitation for the most relentless trekkers.
We undertook this high altitude journey back in June 2017 and were fortunate to have an amazing weather which let us cross all the three passes and Khatling glacier.
First we took a side trip to visit Kedartal at the height of 4,780 meters. Then we climbed atop Patangani Dhar (4,900 meters) to get down into Rudragaira valley which provided access to Auden's Col. Auden's Col at 5,345 meters is nestled between Gangotri and Jogin mountain ranges.
We managed to cross Audens Col and Khatling glacier in a single stretch and then descend down to Chowki campsite the next day. From Chowki we took a left turn upwards and reach Mayali Pass (5,050 meters) in next two days, and then camped next to Vasuki Tal. From there we descended down to Kedarnath shrine and back into civilization.
Hope this journey enthralls you and through this video we can convey the amazing vistas we witnessed in this high altitude overland route.
