Mohan Pass Explained

Mohan Pass is a principal pass in the Sivalik Hills, the southernmost and geologically youngest foothills running parallel to the main Himalayas.[1] The main road from Saharanpur in Uttar Pradesh to Dehra Dun and the hill station of Mussoorie[2] in Uttarakhand cuts through the pass, then crosses the foothills.[3]
