| Nanda Devi at 7816m is the highest mountain wholly within India. Kangchenjunga is the highest, sharing a border with Nepal. India has closed the sanctuary but there are treks running up the Milam valley to the east and also along the ridges and valleys to the west. The Rishi Ganga gorge is the route taken by Shipton and Tillman.
The three buttons link to animations where the camera orbits the mountain always pointing toward it. "Close" is fairly close up. "Distant" is from further away and "Low" is from a lower altitude. They each run for 60 secs. and are all about 7MB. The arrows on the map below show the positions from where the panoramas to which they link were generated. Holding the mouse over the arrow will display its name. Some of these panoramas are linked with hot spots. Move your pointer over the peak names and the hot spots will show up as a name; click to go to the pan from this location. There are controls on the pans at the bottom and a direction indicator in the top right. Use these controls or <Shift> and <Ctrl> to zoom in and out, pan around with either the controls or your mouse. See the Terrain page for details about these models. Once again all renderings were done with World Construction Set 6 using a landsat overlay and the DEM data patched by Jonathan de Ferranti. |
