Keshav befriends Kili, an inhabitant of the surrounding hillsbefore reappearing with his stunning bride, Chameli. He also meets a wide variety of peopleWhite, a doctor with an ornithological slant of mind who traverses the pass regularly; his faithful driver, Babu; and Keith, a decaying long-term resident of the pass who tried unsuccessfully to live with Tina, his sister in the UK. The moodiness of the unique weather and topography of the pass remains a constant backdrop as Chamelis disillusionment with Keshav grows in the presence of other ardent admirers. Keith finds himself battling depression and alcoholism, despite Whites attempts to help him; Kili too suddenly disappears.
