Our March 2024 snow leopard expedition in Ladakh, India, has been booked up. However, a new trip for November 2024 is in the works. Details are forthcoming, but in the meantime, we have an update from our partners at Snow Leopard Lodge:

Snow Leopard Lodge this season has been going really well, with great sightings at Ulley and at Mangyu, and the new rooms functioning well. One bit of exciting news is that there is a new family of snow leopards in Hemis Shukpachen. A mother and her two cubs that are about 7 to 8 months old. This is great news as that ensures very interesting and productive snow leopard viewing till the season ends.

They have also started a new YouTube series with Kenneth Lawrence, a videographer from Mumbai. Here’s the first episode, as well as a new overview video created by Kenneth:
