received heavy snowfall in November this year but the road was thrown open
again soon. Tourists are making beeline to Rohtang pass and hundreds of
tourists are reaching here every day to see the snow. As the cold has decreased

the tourists for few more days.

half under snow, is bringing smile on their faces. Tourists are enjoying
skiing, horse riding and other snow related activities here. Couples are capturing
the wonderful moments in their cameras with snow-clad Pir Panjal and CB ranges
in the backdrop.
