The trek started at
Okhimath and we moved down to the Madhyamaheshwar Ganga. Walking on the
river bed we reached Jugasu. The old bridge had been destroyed by massive
landslide and the new one was under construction.
The massive land slide which caused much damage. The
blockage of Madhyamaheshwar Ganga lead to the formation of a big
lake.
We crossed
the river in a trolley.
The lake
which has been formed due to the landslide.
Madhyamaheshwar temple complex. The Kashni Dhar is visible just
on top of the temple.
We have more or less made it to the Kashni
Dhar.
Camp set up, we have time to see the trail
which brought us to this place.
Two hours
of moving up along the stream where we had camped brought us to the Kashni
Tal.
Not a deep Tal. We had reached the place
from right and now we started moving to the ridge on the other
side.
The unobstructed view of Chaukhamba from the
ridge made all the trouble worthwhile.
Retraced
the path to the Kashni Dhar camp and moved off to the huge ground of
Pandosera.
We had reached Pandosera in dark and could
enjoy it the next morning.
The trail
to the Nandi Kund makes one cross all the streams coming from top. The route
is behind the dark ridge on the right. Try and spot the man in the picture,
he is quite near to you.
