The lower and middle elevations of the Himalayas mountains receive their heavy snowfall in the peak of winter, which runs from December 21 through January 29, where up to five feet of snow covers valleys and slopes alike. There is little to zero snow from Nepal to the Hindu Kush this winter, and worries about climate change are in the region's mind.
