Rafting on the Zangkhar

The symptoms of Altitude Sickness slowly abating, Thomas and me decided to risk going rafting. We went on the river Zangkar, a 3+ category as far as rafting goes, meaning it isn't slowly descending like putting, but neither is it too exciting or wild. We never capsized, which, considering the chilly water, was a very good thing. 
Before the departure
Guide, us two and two others (mother and son, maybe Chinese-American? 
Pretty muddy river, the Zanghkar





And after... Can you tell how the Indus meets the Zanghkar by the different colours?
Amazing landscapes and good fun, all in all.
