Rocksea, Spiti and the Ladakh regions are cold desserts hence this bleak landscape. We were there in June and day time is quite OK. Since we would trek in fact day felt warm but nights are cold. On this trek we were lucky to have a bit of cloud cover so the days too were pleasant.

Savage Garden, thanks for stopping by. I would say let the kid grow up a little more. Though I have seen kids in the region, I would say take him when he can remember something. Till then places that are closer and do not involve such high altitude would be a better bet.

Are most rivers in this region are muddy?
I remember Zanskar/Indus confluence at Nimmu. One was dirty (color-wise) and other dirtier :-)

Savage Garden, you are welcome.

Rocksea, trust Shrinidhi to notice such things!

Thanks Ramesh.

Sangfroid, I think we sat down next to one that at least for a while was clear :D
