The height of the Ladakh Ranges prevents rain clouds from crossing into Ladakh, and as a result Ladakh receives only 2 inches (5 cm) of rain per year. These Mountain ranges cause moisture laden air masses to drop their rain and snow as they climb over the mountains. As the air descends, it warms and picks up moisture, dropping very little. This is known as a rain shadow and this prevents rain to drop in Ladakh.
