This is a uphill day through a very thick forest full of Monal Pheasant. (A large plump pheasant with a loud, ringing call. Males are mainly iridescent blue, green on the mantle and rufous on the neck, with a white patch on the lower back and an orange tail). It is a prominent bird and was the state bird of Himachal and often seen by the tourists and trekkers.). After having packed lunch at Shilt we would come down to the rolla campsite of the GHNP !
Note : For people who dont want to trek they can rest to explore surrounding and bird watching around Rolla camp. This forest is home to the endangered king of the birds “the Western Tragopan. (In the villages close to GHNP, the local name of Western Tragopan is Jujurana (Juju means bird and rana means king) i.e. the king of the birds. There is a local legend that the Lord created this pheasant and all the birds in the universe donated a feather each to give it color and unparalleled beauty. The male is one of the world's most spectacular birds: black on the head, a deep crimson on face and mantle and orange on the breast, the black belly and dark wings are spangled with star-like white specks. The female is a dull brown. Though rare, with luck we might see them.
