An unspecified -cave- or rock shelter, which the Christian saddhu Sunder Singh characterised (note 1) by glowing eyes of wild predatory animals that jump over entering visitors and which, in case of rainy weather, becomes too wet to guarantee a wholesome night's sleep for insufficiently prepared wanderers. The -cave- used by Sunder Singh in late June or early July 1916 (note 2) is situated at an unspecified distance short of Narkanda (note 3), a village north-east of Simla and a few miles south of Kotgarh (note 4).An unspecified -cave- or rock shelter, which the Christian saddhu Sunder Singh characterised (note 1) by glowing eyes of wild predatory animals that jump over entering visitors and which, in case of rainy weather, becomes too wet to guarantee a wholesome night's sleep for insufficiently prepared wanderers.
