Description
  • leeward

A modified bivouac under a boulder of the Naya Kanga moraine. Behind the stone fence a place for about 2 people with backpacks, around plenty of space on the gravel for building tents. The site is on a flat area beyond the horizon of the upper level of the valley in a slight trough, so the surrounding area is fairly well protected from the wind.

Water source
  • water is unavailable during snow cover

Water from melting snow is in a nearby couloir behind the edge of the valley floor, in case of warm weather the spring probably flows around the bivouac as well.

Best time to visit

Probably anytime...

Access

The bivouac is located at the entrance to the Ganja La saddle from the north behind the last edge of the valley (4800 m.a.s.l.), the trail marked by stone signs passes right by.
