Trekking ...

We've been planning this winter trekking for a while. Originally planned for 28th Dec 2012 but the date was shifted for 29th because of some other engagements - a cousin's tombstone opening ceremony and a friend's wedding on the same day .

We started around 8:45 in the early winter morning. One gypsy and a sumo and some 2-wheelers to one village Gelmol took around 20 minutes. From there we started our trekking. We took about 3 hours to reach the summit. It was tiring ... very very tiring and most of the times we have to grit our teeth and climb just a few more steps... which goes on and on..The feeling on reaching the summit, fresh cool air through your lungs  and the scenery - no feeling will ever be able to describe this.
The destination...(taken from Khuga Dam side)

This is where we started.. around 30 of us.
