Here are the on the way pictures took during the Ghat Section ride from Tangmarg to Gulmarg . In the base, you can get Wool coat, Shoes for rent. You can avoid Wool coat for rent if you already have one and just go only with Ice shoes for rent.I would recommend not to spend too much on coat . If you have Jerkin, that should be OK for Gulmarg to Enjoy as Wool coat is not Mandatory as it is just a seasonal business for them.
