As Indrahar Pass so is Waru Pass

As Indrahar Pass so is Waru Pass 

 

This is not about the height or difficulty level of Mountain Pass....it's more than that!
I got up early by 3:30 am to get ready for my third High Mountain but first long duration and length hike with all ration and cooking stuff on backpack. Left home around 5:40 am and was at Dramman around 06:15 am and the good thing was like election campaign days and marriage functions for all taxis were engaged so I'd to kill myself at Dramman for almost 2 hours and finally at 8:30 am got the lift up to Kandwari....I remember my first high mountain hike of Indrahar Pass in Dhauladhar Mountain Range..during my first climb and stay in Indrahar Jot the feeling I had was just like a child has once he/she sits on the shoulders of parents and seeing the views around that are generally barred owing to once height and age!

Triund Hill and Snowline Cafe

As the sun is reclaiming it's position in the sky the city plains are feeling the heat increasing day by day and similarly snow in Triund is also going back up in the air...shepherds have started to direct their livestock to the lower ridge of mountains which are full of fresh green grass.

Through Rain and Fog

On August 17^th 2013 at 10:00 am we (Triund Baba and Gordon Cole) decided to meet up in Sun & Moon Cafe behind Gallu Devi Temple above Bhagsunag and 2km ahead of Dharamkot.
We had planned a Triund hike through possible rain and thick fog, so after having tea and noodles at Sun & Moon Cafe, we started our climb.
