Pangong Lake, situated at 14,000
feet (4,267 m), is a long narrow basin of inland drainage, hardly six to seven
kilometers at its widest point and over 135 km long. About 1/3rd of the lake is
under Indian occupation and remaining under China. The Chinese border is just
beyond the mountains across the lake. Spangmik, 7 km along the southern shore
from the head of the lake is the farthest point to which foreigners are
permitted. There are spectacular views of the mountains of Changchenmo range to
the north and their shimmering reflection in the ever-changing blues and greens
of the lake’s brackish waters is breathtaking. Above Spangmik are the glaciers
and snow-capped peaks of the Pangong range. Spangmik and other scattered tiny
villages along the lake’s southern shore are the summer homes of a scanty
population of Chang-pa, the semi-nomadic herdsmen of Tibet and southeast
Ladakh. The Pangong Chang-pa cultivate sparse crops of barely and peas in
summer. During the winter they pack their Camps (rebo) and take their flocks of
sheep and Pashmina goats out to the distant pastures.
