3-Day Battles: Bobrova & Soloviev vs Péchalat & Bourzat "Craziness"
. 01 Aug 2013 . Sportfolio Editor .
Literally a crazy battle.
Even though the battles usually focus on different interpretations of the same music, when I found this program by Péchalat & Bourzat I just had to find a way to squeeze it into the "Battles", and as the french duo is very difficult to pair with other skaters, since they tend to use music that others don't (fortunately!), I thought I'd put them against the Russians with their program about a depressed man, the theme matches and both teams do a good job of letting us know what it's all about.
Voting ends on the 4th of August 17:00 GMT.

Customer Reviews
Quality used to be good but has gone bad!
3 people found the following review helpful
Posted by Sprinkles on Jul 13, 2012
Purchased at iHerb
I have fine curly hair (loose curls), but quite a bit of it. I've had a lot of trouble with hair conditioners because they normally over-moisturize my fine hair and leave it looking stringy and limp after a number of uses. However, this conditioner is great! You don't have to just but just a small amount (like a nickel-size) to easily spread throughout the hair, and it moisturizes just great without being heavy or greasy or over-moisturizing. My hair performed better immediately after starting to use this conditioner. The only thing at all I'm not fond of is the scent. It has a grapefruit tang in it mixed with like a sweet buttercream scent. Luckily, it isn't overpoweringly strong, and the scent does not linger after you've used it. Will continue to use this! **********UPDATE 3/2012: The manufacturing quality of this product is now poor. I have had several more bottles of this, and I'm now giving it up and never buying it again. Each bottle's performance is different from the last, and none of them are exactly like it used to be, even though the ingredient listing stayed exactly the same. Now, there is a problem with varying levels of greasiness from batch-to-batch, and you don't know what you're going to get. I see from a few reviews that others have experienced this with the greasiness/heaviness. The conditioner doesn't rinse cleanly any longer; instead, it actually COATS the hair with something greasy that won't rinse out (you can feel it in your wet hair after you've rinsed), and you're left with greasy hair that is frizzy/uncontrollable. I called Nature's Gate about this problem, but like most mfg's now, they wouldn't admit to any problems and acted like they'd never heard of this. But after seeing this poor and variable quality in several of the latest bottles (which I couldn't even use up), their product speaks for itself. Too bad!

Nice clean scent & seems to bring back the low lights I paid so dearly for. Rinses clean too. I alternate between this one and the green bottle for extra body.
Very good for color protection

I purchased these earrings for a dear friend who has always wanted diamond studs. While the earrings are pretty and seem to be good quality, they are TINY -- so much so that I am a bit embarrassed to give them as a present.
I bought this pair because I had lost one of my others. These were very clear diamonds, much clearer than my old pair. I thought the price was very low for the quality that I received. Very happy with this purchase.
These are for a second hole and just perfect. I had some diamond stud earings years a go and lost one. I thought it was about time to get a new pair. I treated myself and they are just the right size and just love them

"You ask too much of a fledgling, Tomar. Tu will learn. The ever present frown you see on his face is much too akin to yours, however. That was inherited."
This is totally not canon, but Tomar and Tomar Tu feels, ehe…Also, can Xudarian babies look like fluffy-downy angry birds please?
irrelevant maybe but in Bangla, the word tomar literally translates into "your" or "Yours"

[...] Source:Comments on Manali – Leh Highway Status [...]
Hi dheeraj.. how r u..???
Compliments for having such a nice family..
My thanks are also for those..
cause they are also a great factor of the help given by you to the visitors…
Hi Deeraj,
Thanks. These options would be really useful to us. Would be great if you can get us the distance and route map of these places in Leh , so we could interlink it as per our need.
1) Do you have any idea about the Distance(kms) and Travel time of the below places ?
a) Leh – Khardung La – Diskit (Nubra Valley) – Hunder / Diskit
b) Hunder / Diskit – Sumur – Panamik – Sumur – Khardung La – Leh
c) Leh – Hemis Monastery – Pangong Tso
d) Pangong Tso – Thicksey Monastery – Shey Palace – Leh
e) Leh – Upshi – Chumathang – Tso Moriri
2) Also do we have any route to travel directly from Diskit to Pangons Tso ? Just to avoid coming back to Leh.
Thanks in advance.
Hi Deeraj,
Thanks for the effort you had put in to draft the plan. We were able to take several information from the itinerary but we may not be able to execute it exactly for the below reasons.
1) We don't have direct trains to Jammu or Srinagar or Chandigarh from Bangalore , so we had no option but to choose Delhi as the starting point.And also we do not want to risk by sending bikes in connecting trains at least for the onward journey.
2) We are flying to Delhi and have booked tickets, so we can't start from Jammu.
3) We are people from south, so wanted to make the most of the trip, we are planning to visit wagah border and Golden temple in Amritsar as well.
Considering this can you tweak the plan a little bit to start from Delhi and suggest which is the best way to reach Leh and cover all places?
Thanks in advance
Hi Deeraj,
We are 4 people from Bangalore planning to do biking to Leh starting from Delhi.Bring own bikes to Delhi thro train.We have planned for 15 days excluding the days spent in Delhi.We wanted to cover the route Delhi-Manali-Leh-nubra valley-Leh-Kargil-Srinagar-Jammu-Amritsar-Delhi.Can you please suggest us the important spots to visit on the listed place? How much time can be spent on each place to cover the above ? Would be great if you can customize the itenerary to suite us.
I plan to ride my motorcyle with my wife in tow, from Chandigarh to Leh. We leave on Aug 10.
Anyone want to join us

Do u hv any feedback from people coming back from leh regarding crossing nallas in car .
Hi Dheeraj
We 3 friends are planning to travel delhi-manali-leh on bikes.
We would be having a pulsar 200cc & Yamaha R15 150cc bike.
Plz advice whether these bikes would be able to sustain the terrian.
We are planning to leave on 23rd June evening from delhi.
addational to this I am planning manali leh road trip between june20th to june 27th .
pls suggest how to plan 07 days vacation between manali and leh .
Dheeraj ,
I heard yesterday the tourists got stuck in Rohtang.. don't know why… do you have this information ?
Hi Dheeraj
You are right..
Hi Dheeraj
Thnx alot for the reply.
We are planning around 15th of June, lets see what are the conditions at that time.
Hi! I want to know whether the roads are good enough for bikes or not.
I also want to know that can we take Scorpio there?
hi dheeraj ,
tks for yr reply ,
In short , sld I take my Swift car after june 25th on this route or not . I think u r the right person to decide .
Hi dheeraj , thk for giving this good news . I am waiting for this day . Pls advise what the the road condition as of now . I hv to plan Manali – leh Trip with my children's in my swift diesel car .
Dheeraj ,
Surprising .. against all predictions and huge stock of snow the road has opened suddenly so early ? If I hire a car like Sumo or Mahindra MAx or Qualis id it possible to reach leh ?
Hi Dheeraj,
Let me thank you first for the updates. I am planning to start from Pune on 4th June and planning to stay in Jispa rather than Keylong. I had a nice experience in Jispa last year. I am hoping that Keylong to Jispa will be open.
I find a very little chance of Manali leh road being open by 8th June and in fact it will take till end of second week ?
Hi Dheeraj,
We r planning to go to Leh via Manali on 4th of June. Hope it will open by that time. Otherwise we will proceed through Kargil / Shrinagar. Please let us know the Veg food availability in both the routes. Also we are traveling by an SX4 and Dezire. Will it work. Most of the comments in the blog were updated in mid May. Please let us know the whether conditions now ( for Manali Leh route ).
Hi Dheeraj
Alternately if I want to avoid 6 days of travel by road and go to Leh by Air; are their options available in Leh to come back to Chandigarh by road.. as in private taxi's.This way I can take advantage of spending more time in Leh and can enjoy the road travel in return journey .
If yes, How much do they typically charge?
Thanks a lot for the update on the Leh-Manali highway. Your efforts have proven to be of immense help to aspiring Leh tourists like me. Keep up the good work.
Hi Dheeraj, We are planning to start our Manali – Leh trip on June 20th. Please let us know your views on this date?
We are a group of 8 people and planning to do this on bikes.
Thanks Dheeraj, I will be hiring this private car. I hope that should not create a problem
hi, i need your help, we are planning to go to Leh by tommorrow in our swift car. Please let me know can we go from manali leh highway. Is it open. Or please let me know Will swift be fine for driving in that area. Please reply
Thanks Dheeraj
One last question; I will be travelling by a private toyota qualis; I hope this vehicle is fine for the terrain; do I need to take an inner line permit for entering Leh or sight seeing with in Leh..?
If yes what is the procedure
Hi Dheeraj
Thanks for your earlier response to my query
If I plan to take the Srinagar- Sonamarg – Zojila Pass- Kargil – Leh route; and I start around 5 AM in the morning from Sonamarg to Leh do you think I can cover this distance and reach Leh by 5-6 PM the same day with no halt in between
Also as I understand there are specific timeframes when vehicular movement is allowed for onward and return journey at Zojila pass and Kargil. Do you have any idea what time does the window open at these places to allow vehicles to go to Leh side because I guess I will have to plan it that way to cross these places when traffic is allowed to move towards Leh else I may not be able to make it from Sonamarg to Leh on same day
Appreciate your quick response on this.
hey buddy,
You are a superman. thanks a ton for the lightning fast response. I think going via srinagar makes total sense, just that why i wanted to go from manali – leh road as i have heard it is very unreliable and can close any time so i wanted to cover it first but i guess that all depends upon lady luck.
Last question brother…. 25th june is my date for leaving to the roof of the world and i definitely would prefer manali-leh to srinagar- leh (given a choice to pick one,otherwise a full circuit any day) …monsoons also arrive around these days in north. so should i postpone (not more than a week/10 D) or continue ( i know it all depends upon weather gods but considering previous data). Thanks again
Hi Dheeraj,
First of all big thanks for the way you are helping travelers like us. I am planning ludhiana – leh trip in my lancer petrol on june 25th. Plz suggest should i start the journey from srinagar or manali? i want to do the full circuit. Also we are four persons, would the lancer do fine? i would personally like to start from manali as i have heard it is more prettier than sri-leh route.
Hi Dheeraj,
I am leaving tomorrow for Leh. Thanks for your contact no. may be i will call you to take your guidance.
Many Thanks & Regards
Amol Shivarkar
Plz lemme knw whther manal leh route wl be open by 15th of june??
Hi Dheeraj,
Thanks a lot for the info.
We are friends from Bangalore,planning to bring our bikes and start from Delhi or Chandigarh.I have few more queries.
1) Planning to cover Manali – Leh onward and Srinagar-Kargil return way.Starting from Chandigarh ,How many does it require to bike to implement this plan, including sight seeing Leh, nubra valley etc.?
2) Trying to plan this trip for July last week or Aug mid . Which is the best time to cover this plan?
3)How is the accomodation facilities during this period ? Do we need to book in advance ? Is it wise to bring our own tents ? Can we get tents for rent to stay ?
Please advise.
Hi Dheeraj,
Thanks for your quick response. Brother we thinking of going by bike from Manali to leh and I have find out some information regarding taking bikes on rent. I want to know is that safe to go by bike during the time frame of July 1st and 2nd week. Also can we get good bikes there which can carry us from Manali to leh without any problem.
Please suggest what will be good for us as we can not bring our bikes there.
Thanks once again for you help
Thanks & Regards
HI Dheeraj,
I am really happy that you are sharing important information of Manali-Leh highway. Bro me and my some friends, we are planning a tour to ladakh on 1st of July. I have some questions for you like where we can see the snow on the route and how much snow will be there during 1st week of July, how much traffic will be there during 1st and 2nd week of July and can we get to see snowfall. Bro we are very fond of snow and like to play some adventure sports in snow so please suggest any place where we can acomplish our desire.
Thanks & Regards
Hi Dheeraj,
I have gathered lot of information from you.Thanks. We are group of friends planning to visit Leh during August. We got some news that since Ramdan fasting would be performed strictly in areas around Leh, availability of
food during day time would be issue.I am not sure how far this is true.Do you have any idea regarding this? Please advise.
Hello Dheeraj,
I am leaving Delhi on 29th May and planning to reach Leh on 2nd June. Taking route Amritsar-Srinagar-Sonmarg-Kargil-Leh. Please let me know this route is fine now and what kind of hurdles I may face during travelling. I am planning to come back to Delhi via Leh-Manali route. Is there any chances that Leh-Manali will open around 7th June?
Hi Dheeraj Thanks for the much needed advise. As i have already mention that I will be travelling along with my family from Srinagar to Leh on 8th June and then from Leh to Manali on 16th June (by own car) could you please suggest any other family which can join us on these dates as its always better to move in group.
Thanks a lot Dheeraj for your advise. Can you through some light on inner line pass for Leh. I am covering Nubra valley and Pangong Tso also. Is any thing more I can see. I will be travelling with family including two kids below 10 yrs of age. Will it be comfortable.
Dear Dheeraj,
We are planning to visit Leh in the first wk of june by our own car (Dzire)via Srinagar and want to return from Leh Manali Highway. What are the possibilities.
Is Dzire car is suitable for these roads??
Dheeraj ,
I just talked with Ravi,driver in Manali. he told he has the latest news as of 21st May that BRO has given a date of 1st June for Manali Leh highway.
Dheeraj ,
How was the weekend in terms of Manali Leh highway in terms of rain or snow ? Has Rohtang opened as expected ?
Dheeraj ,
Nice to see your reply there is no snowfall in the coming weekend. Earlier you told there is a prediction of snowfall this weekend. Has it changed ? Also you suggest to do manali Leh highway atleast first week of July but I think if we do the journey as soon as it opens then it will be a lifetime journey as far as the view and snow are concerned. The late you are the less you see.. I think so.
What's your opinion in this regard ?
Also do you have any further update for Manali to Kaza via Kunzam la ?
hye dheeraj.
i am jothish here. we are a group of 10 guys who wants to do trekking from manali to rohtang pass.
so i need to know which is the best route for the same.
secondly, when will be the roads be opened?? i need the roads to move my administrative vehs, which are all mountain vehs.
thirdly, once the roads are open, how many days will it take to be completely safe??
i saw ur previous responses, and found to be really helpfull. hope u respond the same with me too.
hi dheeraj finaly we decide to go leh on 28 may we reach manali on 30th if leh highway open or not at that time other we chose srinagar site pl suggest
Hi Dheeraj, i took 20 days leaves and want to see Leh as well 4 dham (bari, kedarnath, yemo and gangotri) and m leaving from Nagpur on 29th May. Do you think that in 20 days i will see all these places? plz let me know.
At last i've reached leh on my bike. Everything was o.k. except the stretch near zojila.its just horrible. it took 1 hr to cross 11 km. Weather Is good.But one important thing is that through zojila traffic is one way. i.e. one day you can come from sonmarg to leh, while on the next day you can go from leh to sonmarg that is due to the survey of the tunnel that is going to construct near zojila.
Hi Dheeraj, we are planning srinagar leh manali by innova starting 5 june and back from leh on 10 june .Is it safe to travel on innova on 10 june from leh to manali . how will be the road for innova at that time ?
When you say snowfall is predicted Friday and Saturday do you mean this Friday which is today ? or you meant next Friday 20th May ?
Hi Dheeraj,
Thanks for the continued and timely updates! Much appreciated.
So basically me and my friends are just waiting for the Manali – Leh highway to open up and then a group of 5 of us will hit the road from Delhi in our Mahindra Xylo.
My questions:
1. I understand from this forum that the roads are going to be bad. But how RISKY is it going to be? What are the chances of us having to stop mid way because of landslide/snowfall? When the highway opens, can we expect a decent amount of vehicular traffic to make us feel not all alone? Are the tents along the way on Sarchu/Keylong etc set up as soon as the highway opens?
2. How challenging is this stretch for a driver who has done hill driving before but not done this stretch? I've already mentioned that car will be a Mahindra Xylo.
My questions are quite a few and detailed but I am sure this will help many others on this forum. Look forward to having these answered.
Dheeraj ,
If there is no snow fall next weekend though it is predicted then we can expect the highway to open in first week of June ?

hi everybody!
I m planning to go manali-leh-jammu via taxi in mid june.Can i hope the road be open till then..?
Hi Dheeraj,
I am planning to go Leh via Manali road in June first week(1st June). I am planning to go there by my own car, Maruti swift. I would like to know by that time Manali-Leh highway is going to open or not and is it a good idea to drive swift car on these roads?

Do you have any reference of Leh taxi stand Dheeraj ?
Dheeraj ,
If you can give any reference in manali for the taxi I will speak to him.Also I believe I can get shared taxi or private from Leh taxi stand to come to manali.
Dheeraj ,
If I go lo Leh from Srinagar will the buses ply in that highway in June ? I think the road has already open now.
Dheeraj ,
Understood the HPTDC buses will ply in July in Manali Leh highway but if I go there in 1st/2nd week of June can I get private car from Manali to Leh that time from manalki taxi stand ? I want to know if the cars will run that time.
Hi guys, howz the condition of road from Manali to Kaza & Kibber. I have planned my trip with family,friends n kids to Kibber this mid june, and was wondering if it is advisable to take a cab or self drive my Safari from Manali. Any piece of advise would be of great help.
Dheeraj ,
If manali leh opens by June first week when is the bus expected to ply on the road ? Is it from 1st week of June or may be a little after ?
i plan for leh to manali on last week of may what is whether condition and road is open or not if road is closed than when it open .
oh yes by mistake i typed your name. But i need your contact no.
Dear Dheeraj we have 5 clear nights in Manali area if we could not go to Keylong then suggest an alternate trip whereby we spend 2-3 noghts in Manali & rest as per your suggestion.
Great Dheeraj Thanks for your immediate response. Kindly keep on updating on the Rohtang pass opening status
Dinesh, my plan is fixed i am leaving from pune on 30th May. please provide you contact no. my email id email@example.com.

We are reaching Manali in first week of June and would like to go to Keylong. Any latest update when the roads will be cleared.
Thanks for the update. Usually every year Kunzum la opens before manali Leh highway opens but this time it seems different that manali leh highway is expected to be opened in 1st or 2nd week or June but Kunzam in 3rd week or may be more. This is something unusual. isn't it ?
i am planning to drive down to leh from manali in my swift dezire petrol on 14 june onwards with my wife and kids aged 7 and 12 years.pl suggest whether the time and kind of vehicle selected will do ok with various factors.also send your contact no for further contact.regards.
Dheeraj ,
As we came to know Rohtang is expected to be opened by 21st May and Manali Leh highway by 1st week of June can you please gather some update when Manali to Kaza highway via Kunzam la is expected to be opened ?

Hello, it was quite informative and nice to read your blogs. We are planning to visit Manali in mid-may. We planned three days stay there, with one of those days for Rohtang pass and back. Could you tell us whether a visit to Manali sanctuary would be possible if Rohtang is not opened yet? We have planned for one day local sights and one day for Kullu-Manikaran as well.
Updated the plan
Dheeraj, please comment on anything you see unfeasible. I weary of diesel availability/quality – any recomendations which bunkers I can fill safely.
On a tank full I can go 700Kms. However hill driving may reduce that to 3/4th is my assumption so is it safe to think 500 Kms on 45 litre diesel. On a hill like ooty I can strike 17Kms/litre.
need your wishes and thanks in advance.
I have actually tried to advance the dates as much as possible after your blog.
Yes we can sync up anywhere in the route, I will take Pune -> Ahmedabad, as the roads are good. Good roads help more than shorter routes (experience)
you can ping me on saneax on twitter.
Hi Harsh,
I am posponing by a week (starting on 4th June) from bangalore. The itenary changed, as the Kargil Pudum might get cleared by them (fingers crossed). I want to go to Pudum, have heard a lot from friends on this.
I am a family guy, however I am going with friends, so far just 1 of em have signed up and I am asking others who are still thinking. My kids are too small below 3 years for them to accompany me.
I am also planning to visit Ajmer Sharief/Vrindavan/Katra(Vaishno Devi) as we go along. the route plans are here :
Day 1 – Bangalore->Bhiwandi (NH4 bangalore->tumkur->dharwad->kolhapur->pune->thane->Bhiwandi – 989Kms – http://goo.gl/maps/hTwi)
Day 2 – Bhiwandi->Ajmer (NH8 bhiwandi->surat->vadodara->udaipur->Ajmer – 1002 Kms – http://goo.gl/maps/1t6z)
Day 3 – Visit Dargāh Sharīf of Khwāja Mu'īnuddīn Chishtī and Pushkar
Day 4 – Ajmer->Vrindavan (NH8,NH11,NH2 Ajmer->Jaipur->Mathura->Vrindavan – 366 Kms – http://goo.gl/maps/JjM2)
Day 5 – Vrindavan->Katra (Vrindavan->Noida->Ghazaiabad->Meerut->Karnal->Patiala->Ludhiana->Jalandhar->Katra – 826 Kms – http://goo.gl/maps/cvfC)
Day 6 – Vaishno Devi Visit and rest.
Day 7 – Katra->Srinagar (Katra->Anantnag->Srinagar – 279 Kms 1730 mts (5676 ft) – http://goo.gl/maps/xB8a)
the later part is still in a flux, since I am not sure if Khardungla pass will open up or not will depend on that.
also i need sum hotels cum dormitories ka contacts so that i can do advanced booking or will i get accommodation easily over ther on the spot? can send me info on my id email@example.com
hello guys,

Hi Sanjay, Just now i see the way from Bengaluru to Leh its going through Nagpur, if you go from Pune then its will be long way; are you going to pickup any one from Pune?
Hi Sanjay, I think you will going through Mumbai-B'lor Highway and my flat is on Mumbai-B'lor Highway. If possible i will join on 29th May.
Are you going with friends or Family ?
Hi Dheeraj, How are you doing. Thanks for your help. Please don't say that Leh-Manali Highway will open in mid June I have leaves up to 20th June … I know you can not do anything its under BRO but still hope for best.
Dear Dheeraj, After reading all the posts we have now decided to ride from Chandigarh via Jammu, Srinagar, Khargil and Leh. Then based on the leh-manali status head towards Manali.
Do you think we can do it as per our orginal schedule to start from Chandigarh on May 27th or do you think we need to postpone it to June 2nd. I do not think we can postpone it any further than this.
Amol, I am on Ritz, it will be good if we join, I can join you from Pune on 29th, can you advance a day?
I am planning to visit Leh on road in my car (Ritz diesel)
starting 28th May and returning by 16th June. Dates are nearly fixed, If I have to go I need to time it during the window I have. Earnestly thanks for this blog. I was searching frantically for this info.
thanks again.
Note: Folks who could join me from Bangalore on road are welcome. Even if you want you can join from Delhi etc. but by road is what I am coming. I am look out for a driving co-mate. let me know if you guys are interested. you need to send me a twitter pm on http://twitter.com/#!/saneax
Hi Planning to go leh on 30 May from Pune anybody want to join ?
m going by Ford Fusion.
Hii,dheeraj t s ruhail.actually i was going leh last time itself but due cloudburst i couldn't.i reach manali with my alto but couldn't go further. This time i am quiet passionate to complete manali – leh circuit in my alto which is n good condition also with my friends.we r total 3guys and little bit of luggage.
I request u to give me fair advise regarding taking alto to leh and that too in the month june when there will be good amount of snow. I will be starting delhi by 14june and reaching manali 15june. according to the amount of snow this year i have planed my date of starting from manali.i hope by that time it will open. what u say?
Dheeraj and Ankur,
Thanks for the update on the status of highway conditions.Me and my friends were planning the journey on bikes starting 03 june this year .. I guess we would have to wait atleast till 10th June.. Do u guys think 10June as a feasible date (starting from delhi ).
Dheeraj, thanks a lot for all ur inputs..actually im having a pen and paper while im reading this place.
How do you view a bicycle ride from Leh-Khardung la? Im planning by late July or early August. How steep is the climb?
Till now i could only gather this much that it would be a 37 km ride of which last 15 kms would be dirt road after the check post.
Thanks a lot Dheeraj you are helping a lot
Hey Dheeraj,
Deepak from Bangalore.. I am planning to ride out from Delhi on the 7th of June. U think its a viable option and the roads might have been opened? I had actually planned to ride in July. However, I had to advance my plans to June coz I was told by a lot of people that July is not the best time to be riding coz of he melting snow. In fact I re-booked my air tickets too.. Pls lemme know the best time to be riding…
Thanks Dheeraj are you stay at Manali ?

Hi Guys,
We are a motorcycling group from Bangalore. We are planning to do a round trip from Chandigarh to Chandigarh via Manali-Leh-Khargil-Srinagar-Amritsir-Ludhiana.
We are planning to reach Chandigarh on the 26th of May and start our ride on the 27th or 28th from there. We will be leaving Manali and get on to the Manali-Leh Highway by 29th or 30th. What are the chances that the road will be open by that time. Any news will be appreciated.
Hi Ankur & Dheeraj,
I am actually planning to undertake trip to Leh via Manali during mid-may, but from what I read it seems that it is unlikely to be open by that time.
What time is it safe to assume that the entire stretch would be open, and I can plan / apply for leave accordingly.
Manali-leh Highway is still closed. there is snow upto 15 ft. you can go upto gulaba (21 kms frm manali) road will probably open in may end. Road is cleared 8 kms ahead gulaba, but traffic is not allowed, mountain bikers can take you 3-4 kms (they bribe B.R.O people). I tried to travel further on 11.04.2011 and 13.04.2011 but snow is sliding on the road, it is still not safe to travel.
