The Prolonged Dry Spell This Winter Affect The Ski Resort Of Gulmarg
Tourists are sitting in a cable car gondola lift as it passes over the higher reaches of Affarwat, in Gulmarg, approximately 55 km from Srinagar, in Srinagar, Kashmir, India, on January 20, 2024. The prolonged dry spell this winter in the Kashmir valley is dealing a severe blow to the famed ski resort of Gulmarg. The once bustling ski slopes are now lying snowless, causing disappointment among tourists and particularly ski enthusiasts. The absence of seasonal snowfall is resulting in the cancellation of mass bookings for hotel owners, severely impacting their businesses. This unanticipated setback is underscoring the vulnerability of winter-dependent economies and the urgent need for strategies to mitigate the impact of unpredictable weather patterns.
