Conquered TWICE!!!

I can start by saying that I am an adventurous person who loves going trekking. So let me tell you about my favorite trekking destination. It is a place called Mulayangiri. (FACT FILE : Mulayangiri is supposedly the tallest peak between the Western Ghats and the Himalayas, it is also the tallest peak in Karnataka). I was lucky enough to scale this peak not once but twice. Once with my collage pals just after finishing college and the second time with my office colleagues. The first time I did not have a camera of my own :( but this time I was all ready to point and shoot but to my disappointment My batteries gave way, they used to discharge very quickly so again had to restrict my instincts to go on clicking. But still I maneged to get some nice shots.Yes and about the place It is very beautiful especially in the winter season around October time. The whole place would be covered with a blanket of mist so much to the point that If you stand under a tree you would be drenched with the dew drops formed by the mist hitting against the tree. Dont believe it well I have just the thing to make you believe.

You can see how the dew drops are formed on the thorns.It would have been more beautiful had I not shaken it in my over enthusiasm to capture the pic :)



The above two pics will give you an idea about the mist.


Here are some more snaps....
So from Mulayangiri we went to another place called Kemmangundi. It is also a very beautiful place.

This is the picture a spot in Kemmangundi called Z point. It is called so because the path to get on top is in the form of the alphabet Z as you can see in the picture.

This was about my last trip. So I am definitely going back to Mulayangiri once again....What about you...?
