Dokriani Bamak
One of the most important glaciers of the Bhagirathi basin, the Dokriani Bamak, is a medium sized glacier, formed by two circques, the Draupadi-Ka-Danda and Jaonli peak, located around 5600 m and 6000 m respectively above the sea level. The Dokriani glacier also gives rise to a stream known as Dingad, which after meeting several other snow fed streams across its path finally merges into the River Bhagirathi near a picturesque village of the region known as Bukki.
