29 Jan 2011, the day I pushed myself to extreme levels just to keep up with others. 've to say this is the most difficult trek I did, well few says it is an easy one.. But, i'm different from them ;) It all started with a very long walk on the Jeep trail, then pass through some agriculture fields which lead to a small waterfall. After an yummy lunch break and some photo shoot started the 'real' trek. I say it real, coz the actual climb of the mountain starts from here.. After a 20min walk we're welcomed with a very very beautiful waterfall.. I regret for not taking out digital camera and just click with mobile cam.
Everything went smooth till here. A wrong turn(left turn) made all of us stay on tree branches and a one foot platform for almost 1 and half hour, as we're supposed to climb rocks which are almost 90 degree.. Meanwhile another guy searched for a trail on the right side of the waterfall which is the actual one..
So finally trek started on the correct path, and now our only goal is to reach the destination before it is dark.. This part of the trek is what I'm talking about which took away all of my energy.. I took frequent and long intervals, munched on apples, biscuits, energy bars etc etc.. to get my lost energy.
The views from this peak are breathtaking.. Words are not suffice to praise of what we see in front of our eyes.. We're not that lucky to watch sunset, but just lucky enough to see the dusk colors..
After some struggle, I some how reached the place where team is resting happily..
From here me and three others went up to temple(destination place) by jeep and also took everyone's luggage with us.

Tents raised - food cooked - slept - good night :)
Good morning - trek to sunrise view point - pack up and head to Jog falls..
