The Pambar Shola, c. 2000 m, perched on the edge of the precipice with the falls cascading down for several hundred metres, is a living fossil, a relic among relics. This biodiversity treasure trove, now shrunk to less than 3 km in circumference, is witnessing the last-ditch battle for survival by a number of plant species.
