Wow 43 days went by real quick. But no,I should not brood this time
In the last weekend of holidays, I went on a “solo”(that’s a feat by itself 😛 hence the highlight) hiking trip to Sharavati Valley(Western Ghats).When I say solo, I mean me with random bunch of people from all over India.When I decided to go, I read through the details of the trip and in my mind I was thinking,”Ha! Just a stupid trek up a valley.I can complete it like a boss.” I did complete it but after slipping,falling,crawling and holding on to a branch like a baby hoping it would automatically transfer me to my destination.Most of the other people in the trip had done several high altitude treks and I was not just the one with least experience but also the youngest of the lot. Let me share some photos.
Note: These were not taken by me.
Let me also show you how we reached the Dabbe falls (Dora style :P)
1. Walk down this beautiful road – simple
 2. Cross a leaches-filled pathway – No time to take photos there for we were busy picking leaches from our bodyÂ
3. Very carefully cross this small water falls – this was fun
4. Cross this ply wood bridge – just that the bridge is broken and half into water
5. Walk down, climb down(or crawl, sit, jump – do something and go down) this clearance – this was challenging as it was raining 24*7.
6. Stand and admire the falls
More photos when I get them and more about the experience later!
