| The Lohit River enters India
at the border of China near Kibithu, Indias eastern most inhabited
tip. It is a medium volume continuous Class 4+/5 river in its upper
alpine reaches and becomes a pool drop towards the latter end of the
trip.
There have been very few raft expeditions on the Lohit River. We
were part of a trip in February 1994; we organized the first successful
complete descent on the Lohit. A Canadian, Indian and UK team tackled
the exceptional river. This trip offers kayakers a solid class 4+/5
Expedition with on of the hardest multi-day runs in the Himalayas. |
