And following is the reference image (source) that helped me identify the massif - with beat icons Gary Snyder, Peter Orlovsky, Allen Ginsberg in foreground, on their stay at Kausani.
Its the same massif that you can see in both the pics - Trisul, Nanda Devi, and Nanda Kot peaks, at almost the same angle, albeit about 80km apart (as the crow flies). Even Kausani (at 1890m) and G'lekh (at 1890m) are the same altitude.
Here is a second confirmation: a painting of the same by Arnold Henry Savage Landor, ca. 1900.
