Finally, we reached ITBP CP, Chusul. We showed our permit to ITBP guy and inquired about Kaksang La- Hor La- Yaye Tso- Mirapal Tso- Mahe route.He told us, civilians are not allowed on that route. After reading
tsk1979, I wanted to cover that route. We met their CP in charge. He also denied us to go towards Kaksang La. We finished registration formalities and moved ahead.

You have a point. I have added Baralacha, Rohtang, Kunzum and Sach to the list as well. A total of 32 passes as of now. First post updated with the list.

This may not be the thread to post it, but what is the distance between Sankoo and Drass via Umba La? Google maps doesn't give this route.
