On this page, you'll find links to photographs of the Uttarakhand Himalayas. A few of these have been lifted from various publications, while many have been graciously supplied by a good friend who visited the region recently. In her research travels on Third World women and rural development, Ritsuko Nakamura snapped some wonderful pictures and made an excellent contribution to this web project. Many thanks!
