About Mayodia Pass
The 2655 m pass on the Roing to Anini road, 56 km above Roing, and the easiest place in eastern Arunachal to stand in snow: from December to February the road is white and day-trippers from Assam come up to see it. In the clear months the view runs down over the Dibang plains. There is a small government lodge at the pass and nothing else. Fog and ice close the road without notice; start early and carry warm clothes.
