Summit Aviation has commenced flying to Machail Mata Temple from Gulabgarh. On foot this yatra takes about 3 days from Kistwar. Machail Mata Temple is a Chandi Mata temple and is an amazing place to be in, the idol of Chandi Mata is made of white Marble , the idol has closed eyes, but to the surprise of many the idol opens the eyes occasionally, moreover some of the Jewellery pieces keep moving in pendulum direction despite the fact that there is no wind inside the temple.The dates of this Yatra are fixed every year i.e. from 12th August to 28th August.

Week 4 of Gulmarg Heliskis inaugural season bring the team more challenges, how do you deal with over 1.5 meters of snow falling on the parked helicopter..?
Keep on shoveling!
Over the four day storm cycle the heli was dug out an cleared of the weight of the snow countless times.
Before this storm cycle hit we went exploring to find tree runs that we can heli access in bad weather. The weather window came and it was on.
Gentle slopes, Steep trees to Alaskan style alpine runs, Gulmarg Heliski has it all!

Its week three and dumping, the team head out after the storm passes and are greeted with a fairly touchy unstable snow pack.The guides do their job and the stoke is high.
The snow pack stabilizes in time to get some steep runs before the next storm hits. We've now had another meter and a half on the upper mountain and its all on. You'll see that next week!
