Chorabari Glacier

[edit]

Satellite image of the Chorabari glacier

  • ... that pilgrims would leap off a cliff named Bhairava Jhamp, near the Chorabari Glacier (satellite image pictured)?

Remaining issues

  • Garhwal and tarn need disambiguating. I'm guessing the second should be tarn (lake), but am not sure which district or division is best for the first.
  • I will check refs and plagiarism later. Chris857 (talk) 21:33, 26 June 2012 (UTC)
  • Where in ref #1 is the 11 degree slope? I'm just not seeing it.
  • Everything else checks out, AGF on one ref for a minor point corroborated by another ref. I went ahead and dab'ed tarn.
  • So, I will pass when Garhwal is disambiguated and the slope can be verified. Chris857 (talk) 02:09, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
  • dab Garhwal. And added a ref for the slope. Also changed glacier area to glacier ice cover area since that portrays the area more clearly.Regstuff (talk) 05:39, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
  • Alright, passed. AGF on one ref. Chris857 (talk) 15:24, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
