Nature's Wonders - Places

A Motley Crowd and a Mighty Mountain

August 11, 2008 - By 

A Sunday morning. A motley crowd in their 20s to 40s. A mighty mountain – Gorakhgad.

We cribbed about the hot sun and the lack of rain only to realise later that descending would’ve been difficult had it rained. The wind at the top was strong enough to blow one away. One of us was reluctant to remove her backpack fearing she might lose her balance. Climbing down was a little hard at a few points especially for the first-time trekkers. Sliding down was the choice of many. But as usual Nature Knights pulled it off.

A dip in the stream at the base marked the end of this well-spent Sunday.
