Along with [[Gurdial Singh]], who joined as faculty, and [[Narendra Dhar Jayal]], then a student at Doon, they were among the first to go on major Himalayan expeditions 1940s onwards.<ref name="Kohli">{{cite book |last1=Kohli |first1=M.S. |title=Mountains of India: Tourism, Adventure and Pilgrimage |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=GIs4zv17HHwC |date=2002 |publisher=Indus |isbn=9788173871351 |page=209 |quote= p.290, Much of the credit for early interest in mountaineering among Indians goes to the Doon School, largely because of some distinguished British mountaineers on its staff like J.A.K.
