Glaciers and rivers
It stands at the head of the western side of Mangraon Glacier. The glacier flows from west to east and joins Milam Glacier. Further down south east from the snout of Milam glacier emerges Goriganga River that later joins the Kali River at Jauljibi. On the western side Uttari Rishi Glacier joins Uttari Nanda Devi Glacier and drains into Rish Ganga. Rishi Ganga met with Dhauliganga River near Rini. Later Dhauli ganga met with Alaknanda at Vishnuprayag. Alaknanda River is one of the main tributaries of river Ganga that later joins Bhagirathi River the other main tributaries of river Ganga at Devprayag and became Ganga there after.[3]
