yogesh sir as you said forclaz 500 are ok for ladakh in winter for normal use, and for chadar we think about gum boot with 2-3 socks

For all Himalayan/Rajasthan desert trips, carrying a roll of toilet paper is a must. My Linea has a roll of toilet paper in the boot.

basics first

that is so damn helpful. Planned my trip last summer to Ldakh, We were not that much prepared........that made our little problems a larger one.

Thanks Abhishank, glad you found this useful.

3 to 5k for a really warm jacket is going to be a bit less. If you can visit Stikage in Delhi, you can try and check out their down jacket, which ought to be in your budget.

yogesh sir what you advise under 10k for a jacket

 

[Yogesh Sarkar]

I believe RKBharat had bought a jacket from Adventure Point for less than that and it proved to be quite good. Alternatively, have a look at jackets from North Face or similar brands (no idea about pricing of it though).

Can you suggest what is appropriate for face protection.

 

[Yogesh Sarkar]

You can buy a balaclava, but that might not be very comfortable to wear all the time. I just used a woolen monkey cap and it was enough for most situation.
