A 9 hour climb to and back from the tallest point of the Andaman islands. Beautiful forest landscape for almost first 2 hours of the coast hugging climb makes it worthwhile.

Trek with Indiahikes. Memorable mainly for the villagers we met on the way. No snow on the pass was a disappointment.

Four years after our first trek across this pass, we were back with no support other than 2 guides. Was fun, but exhausting carrying all our stuff, cooking and putting up tents ourselves. Best thing was the solitude with no other groups around us.

Second time on this trail. A delayed start this time meant we did it over two days, staying for the night at Vellagavi village.

Started with a memorable road trip on NH1 from Shimla to Leh. Experienced worst high altitude sickness on way to base camp. On summit day we managed to get stuck without a guide. Still managed to reach about about a 100 m below the summit at 6000 m.

An unforgettable weekend. Over two days and a night we managed to do a lot of bird watching, mostly huge flocks of flamingos, paddle around in the water for hours with a lifejacket on, practise riding a catamaran and getting our car stuck in the mud and finally having it pulled out by a tractor!

A climb along the route of the old ropeway used to bring tea from top station to the plains. Starting at Kurangani, we sweated our way up to top station in the heat. Nice campsite at the top and a hairy climb down.

May turned out a little early for this. Lot of snow at the pass, a bridge washed away in rains ... Finally we had to change plans to reaching the pass instead of crossing it and fell short of this too by a few hundred meters.

Climbing up all the way from Kumbakarai to Kodaikanal in one day in hot conditions made this difficult.

A trek to the mysterious skeleton lake partly spoilt by a deceitful guide. But variety of terrain on the way with cedar forests, alpine meadows and snow covered mountains. Also probably the trek with most flora and fauna - mainly rhododendron and birds.

My first trek in the Himalayas. Actually the first camping trek for most of us. Not knowing how to pack, we struggled to carry our heavy backpacks and sleeping bags. To top it all, we didnt have enough protection against rain and crossed the pass soaked and freezing. So it was exhausting, but memorable and amazing too, and got us hooked to the Himalayas.
