Wrong identification of Gangotri Group edit
Hello all,
I want to bring your attention on the page Gangotri Group because peaks mentioned in this article are not at all Gangotri group of peaks, they are on the Gangotri glacier for sure. The peaks falls under Gangotri groups are in the Rudragaira valley. "It is indeed intriguing, that while the Gangotri group towers above the Rudra valley, the Gangotri glacier is almost 20 kms east of the Rudra valley. Undoubtedly, the glacier at one time had its snout to the west of the Rudra valley, which has today receded beyond imagination."[1]
The peaks mentioned in the page have no connection with Gangotri group like Chaukhamba, Kedarnath, Thalaysagar, Meru, shivling, and Bhagirathi group of peaks. They only situated around Gangotri glacier.
Gangotri group of peaks (Gangotri I, II, III) lies 20 km down the valley in Rudragaira valley.--Goutam1962 (talk) 18:01, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
