Summary:

I have been thinking unhappy thoughts ever since I came upon this map of Pangaea with today's political boundaries overlaid on it. Where would I have going hiking in Pangaean India? 1) The Himalayas, crown jewel of hikers arose begining early Cenozoic and reached their bewitching heights in the mid Miocene -Pliocene. 2) The Western Ghats, the poor man's Himalayas, arose in the Cenozoic
