Tso Moriri Panorama
Tso Moriri is a sharp contrast to Tso Kar. Its also a salt water lake but a constant inflow of fresh water from glacial rivers around the periphery ensures the salinity stays low. Its close to the Indian border with China/Tibet and hence has heavy military presence. Altitude is 15,000 ft. and qxygen levels in the air are very low. Even tying your shoe laces takes effort. Each step is a gasp. It was cold, too, with night temps dropping to freezing point at the peak of summer.
