Malshej ghat - The Kulu Manali of Maharashtra

One fine monsoon day. Five enthusiasts. One Travera. One destination. Heaven, heaven, heaven!


The lovely weather, the wind with a taste of rain, the floating clouds.... way to go!


Love the green color and Shail's smile too! ;)


Sunny de nakhre sone lag de ! ('Partner's music rox!)


Ajeet- the dude, the seasoned trekker


This pic was clicked for someone special ;) (Yo Chintu Da!)


Loose control!



The water was ice-cold but it just couldnt keep all of us from jumping right in.



The breathtaking waterfalls..the showers of rain.. the water gushing down the road...sublime!


Vehicles parked all along the Ghat, inebriated people dancing in the rain.....a complete mad rush!

One of my fav pics :)


The bedraggled trio all charged up!


So this was the pinnacle of our trip, and literally so! A narrow path led to this precipitous mountain top. And wat we saw from here is ineffable! The grass dancing to the music of the wind, the clouds rising like smoke forming white and black patches to infinity, the strong wind blowing off waterfalls from their downward course...when I closed my eyes, for once it almost felt like being suspended in mid air!


Now, dont you feel like being in this pic?



One of my best pics ever!


Bachaooooooooooooooooooo! Shail always has a different pose for every pic :)





The Man with the vital stats ;) Any guesses, who?


Happy, happy, happy........

Was a special trip too coz Chintan's leaving the following week for the States. Will miss u, "PAL"!


Truly, a day to remember! All that went wrong was that I forgot to set the camera date right :(
