Visiting the ski slopes of Auli - The Destruction

The destruction

Golden Oak Trees marked for felling




Just completed! Swimming pool for storing water which will be turned to ice and then sprayed over the slopes.



The ski slope and swimming pool for snow in perspective




Bull dozers and men at work



Dislodging grass and bushes which held together the mountain slopes for years



Army training camp



A very cryptic message!
