Support This photo lets the viewer imagine the Glacier that made this formation! --Needsmoreritalin (talk) 14:04, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
Support Cool, but, remove spots in the sky, please. --Terragio67 (talk) 16:53, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
Support Good, probably you captured avalanche. --Mile (talk) 17:01, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
Comment There are three dust spots near the peak. --C messier (talk) 19:17, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
Support In confident expectation that the stains will be removed. Impressive scene. --Milseburg (talk) 22:27, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

- @Terragio67, PetarM, C messier, and Milseburg: Thanks for meticulous reviews pointing out the spots and stain -- I've removed them. Re "avalanche": there is an overhanging snow field. Zooming in to 200%, texture is visible in this and the snow below indicating that they are static. I suspect I've not caught an avalanche in action. --Tagooty (talk) 02:42, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hello again, there are still two spots on the left of the mount. One on the left of the peak and the other on the left of the hidden cloud. Terragio67 (talk) 04:37, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
Done
Thank you. You have remarkable eyesight! I found the spots and have removed them. --Tagooty (talk) 05:01, 19 July 2024 (UTC)

Support Impressive peak. If you can provide a further crop to avoid the cut out building at the bottom near the water course, it would be great -- Basile Morin (talk) 22:22, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
Done Removed the cut-off outdoor toilet building. --Tagooty (talk) 08:51, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

Support A magnificent mountain truly worthy of the worship it inspires. Had favourited this photo when you shared the album with me last month :). --UnpetitproleX (Talk) 23:26, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

Support Impressive view with such a high prominence. The Zanskar Range along the Leh-Keylong corridor is magnificent and full of hidden gems. I wonder if this Lungnak area is now accessible by motorbike, 4WD or maybe even by local bus from Darcha दारचा? --Argenberg (talk) 09:43, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Argenberg: I went in a normal car, a Tata Punch. The is paved from Darcha to the Shingo La pass, unpaved down the Lungnak and Tsarap vallies, paved for the last 20 km to Padum (see images from Oct '22 in the article). Tagooty (talk) 12:27, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Argenberg: A local state bus was inaugurated just this month, between Manali and Padum via Darcha! UnpetitproleX (Talk) 12:55, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
- @UnpetitproleX: Thanks for this info. I've added it to the end of this section in the Wiki article. Tagooty (talk) 08:30, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
