On my trip..
1st day (with Greenery & Water)
We reached around lunch time.. The place where we stayed was in between of village & Forest... one side village (covered by Farms of all different light shades of Green) & end of it thick dark Forest (all possible shade of green) and on the other side it was river (muddy on not clean but BEAUTIFUL) & big rocks... Continuous and constant fight of river water & rocks.. the slash of water & roaring sound.. wow that was so rushing like new blood in body..
My room was above the river, yes over the bridge.. can you measure how excited I was..
Holla.. wat a welcome gift we had.. and live hunting of Snake having frog, just outside my room... Man.. he jump and bite the frog, trap so hard and the frog was finished, then he started swallowing slowly slowly.. my eyes were witnessing frog going from his mouth to lower part of his body... I have no words to explain that scene..!!
Then 1st place we went was a water fall, it was so muddy that One literally feel to call it 'Chocolate fall'It was an amazing place... at there wind was so fast n strong as if it was sprinkling water on your face.. spent around 3hr over there.. Will try to post pic if possible...
At night around 9'o clock we went for Road transit, it means in search of any animal but on vehicle not on foot.. we were in search of snake.. though got two but they were road killed, but then found a different creature belongs to snake type family only but was not snake.. very very very slippery skin it has.. we were not allowed to hold but I touched..! It in was dark grey color which very innocent face..!
Came back around 11:30.
2nd day (full of adventure & danger)
In 1st half went in 'Jungle', for on foot transit in forest.. Find Lazards (of three different types, touched two of them and held one), Scorpio (so disappointed for not allowed to hold. But I tell you, She was SEXY n so sharp! And I held her babies 6 of them, they were super cute..!), caterpillar (of various types), and a snake..!!
It was a really Thick forest and rain was accompanying us now & then..
After lunch we just went out around 1 or 2 hr far from the village we stay towards the farms surrounded by mountains, and mind it mountains are not of only rock but they are fully covered by green grass or plants, one can hardly see the rock..!
Initially we there wasn't plan of tracking but then suddenly our leader thought to do so.. so we all went BUT IT WAS THE MOST DANGEROUS DICISION EVER... the local guy was leading us, none of us knowing the route. Less then half way was really good and safe, we saw are small water fall with very pleasant sound of water, if I say 'Surrila' sound.. AND THEN COMES THE DANGER.. with each distance the degree of mountain was changing bit by bit.. at HALF OF THE MOUNTAIN WE CAME TO KNOW IT IS 80 DEGREE... the increase was so gradual till half of the way that we could not realize it but when we realize it was too late, we can not turn from there, if any of us tried he/she will fall directly on ground.. THAT WAS SCARY SUPER SCARY...!! On top of that there was rain, there was wet mud.. and everything was slippery, no rocks no solid tree to get a grip...
Two times I slipped, I actually remember you all & loved ones here around too.. I literally said the local guy " Bhaiya, maar na mat, abhi to shadi bhi nahi hui hain aur kai doston ko to naam bhi batana baki hain"... on last sentence ppl around stared at me like 'WHAT' and I say 'Nothing'...!!
By God grace nothing happen to any one and we all climbed it, but I swear that was a place where any of us could have died... it must be around 300 meters...!
All fears, regrets, risks, anger were vanished when we saw the view from top... It was outstanding... Such a beautiful world we are living on, God is the best creator & painter!!
Came down from a safe 'Looong' route.. and that was enjoyable too as we all are on full masty mood of being alive..!!
After dinner.. yeah still only the day was ended, Night was just started. Around 10:30pm we (five of us) went to FOREST (thicker than the morning one) in search of particular Snake... Alas we didn't found it, but experience of spending 2 hrs in Forest at Night was AWESOME...! It was PITCH dark, one can not see a person standing at distance of a feet, through the source of torch light we come to know there is a someone (who was he/she, even that can be identified without throwing light on that direction)...total silence, seems every leaf of trees were sleeping or spying on you... still sound of insect was all over there.. AMAZING 1st experience..!
3rd day (Road & Me)
Yes it was road walk day... hiking,. we just walking and meeting village ppl, the you know they were super 'Nishanebazz' (target hitter) we ask one of them to hit the cap of our leader and then did it, boss that speed of the stone was faster then the bullet itself... Fab talent!!
In 2nd half of the day we set to came back...!
Thrilling, marvelous experience with Amazing photography workshop.. So much I learned about it and about the small creature of life...!!
Paisa Wasool it was..!!
