Mount Kamet Expedition

Mount Kamet Expedition

A thirteen member team of the ENC with logistical support from DAPSA undertook a challenging expedition to the twin peaks of Mt Kamet (7756 M) and Mt Abi Gamin (7355 M) in the Garhwal Himalayas from 09 May 16 to 11 Jun 16. The team has achieved unprecedented success by summitting both the peaks on 02 Jun 16 and 04 Jun 16 respectively. Mt Kamet, the third highest peak in India, is the highest peak open for mountaineering. Thus, the Naval Ensign has been planted at the highest point possible within the geographical boundary of the country.
