Pindar River
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Pindar River emerges from the Pindari Glacier. The river, in its initial course, flows through sedimentary rocks. Further to the south, it meanders through quarts schist. Granite is found in abundance in this area. The Pindar river has cut a gorge in thick glacial deposits up to nearly 10 km, resulting in the formation of spacious glacial terraces spread on both sides of the gorge. Further down, from Phurkia up to Khati, places enroute to the Pindari Glacier, there are numerous waterfalls, hanging valleys and tremendous rolls cliffs as the one of at Dwali.[1]
