Panoramic view up the reservoir of the Teesta Low Dam-IV Hydroelectric Power Plant in northern direction. The landslide on the left side of the photograph is a recent phenomenon, most likely related to changes in the slope water conditions due to reservoir filling. However, landsliding is maybe less dangerous for travellers at this site than the aggressive, potentially rabid monkeys roaming the roadside.
