  1. I had reached at the Skeleton Lake, India this past year during the summer holidays, after a tiring nine-hour drive through the bus tours. Some 16,000 feet above sea level, at the bottom of a small valley, was a frozen lake absolutely full of skeletons. That summer, the ice melting revealed even more skeletal remains, floating in the water and lying haphazardly around the lake's edges. Something horrible had happened here.
