Aaaj mai upar, Aasma niche!!

Yes we made it!!! Finally at the top of mountains. Joy of winning.

The Ranges

See these outlines. Beautifully painted by mother nature....

Decision!

Our 'Gypsies' were already at the top of Yettina Bhuja (meaning: Shoulder of Ox.). Me and Achalesh were easy go guys :) and stoped here. It was critical decision: To go or not to go!!

Young guns of India

On the way back, it was 2nd Oct. bole to Bapu ka B'day. We were expecting our jeep to come near the same spot and pick up our dead walking bodies. But apun ka saala Bad luck hi kharab....

All the village jeeps were in nearby town and we had to stretch ourself for another 7 KM walk. These kids were coming from school after Gandhi Jayanti program... seeing these cute innocent faces was refreshing...

March from here

The Journey starts. We were not knowing as how long our destination was. See the glittering faces. Till here we managed this Jeep.
(L-R) : Vinay, Achalesh, Me, Jeep Driver, Harish, Nadeem, Swapnil, Arun, Guide-Pigina and Sachin.

Cool Blues

This was amazing site. Morning around 6AM on a bridge and shades of Blue everywhere.

Jaha raat wahi Basera!

Started from Mangalore office at 9PM and reached this place at 2AM. This is a typical village school and we spend a night in school corridor in our sleepy bags. When got up early, was time to say Bye to this place... Truely natural!!!

On the green carpet

After a 9 KM of nomadic walk to 'Yettina Bhuja' mountain trekk, I could manage this smile.

Let there be a light!

Misty Christmas morning. Woke up from bed and peeped out from window, without a seconds delay i rushed to camera and picked this one....
