Sun burn is not serious in valley areas but if u go for snow hike or spend time on snow then u will definitely get serious sun burns due to strong snow reflections.
Easy way out is taking ample sunblock supplies with u considering the no. of days of the trip.
We missed sunblocks in trip shopping in June 2008 and paid the price as we went on Ansoo Lake trek and Babusar pass as well and both these locations were snow covered. Sunblocks were not available in Naran bazar at that time.
Sunburn in snow hikes can get this much serious
and all 6 of us had noses like this and we literally peeled off our face skins after 2,3 days of tour.
