Rafting Down the Mystic Brahmaputra by S P Chamoli
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 6.3 MB
Overview: The Brahmaputra River is one of the last largely free-flowing rivers emanating from the Tibetan Plateau. “This book is the account of “a world record in white water rafting” (The Times ofIndia ) down the mighty Brahmaputra River, from Gelling on Indo-Tibet Border to Dhubri on Indo-Bangladesh Border by an Indo-Japanese rafting expedition team under the auspices of Indian Mountaineering Foundation, jointly organised by Himalayan Association of Japan and Indo-Tibetan Border Police. This account has been penned down by the leader of this maiden rafting venture. The mighty river has been rafted down in only 2 small rubberised AVON Rafts, through its unknown deep gorges of boiling white water rapids of Siang valley up to Passighat and thereafter long placid voluminous waters of plains of Assam covering a total distance of about 1300 Kms. in 25 days. The book gives first-hand account of the unexplored tribal area of ‘Abhors’ hills, inhabited by the’ Adis’—the animist of Arunachal Pradesh and worshippers of ‘Dolo-polo’ (the Sun and Moon God)—and ‘Mishings’ of Assam, which makes it an interesting reading.
