Pasighat in April
Arunachal Pradesh, India
Pre-monsoon humidity and afternoon storms make river activities unpredictable
April heats Pasighat up. The lowland location (153m) means it gets properly warm, and humidity climbs. But the Siang is still in good condition, tribal life is active, and mornings remain pleasant.
