Train, bus & helicopter between home & base camp for Uttarakhand trek

11.04.2024, Thursday.

Three friends met at the station. One of us had actually joined impromptu (on-the-spot) and had managed to get all confirmed reservations (not even RACs)!

The final packing of the bag concluded a few hours before the journey started.

My bag weighed 13 kg.

We alighted at Delhi.

Another train journey took us to the foothills of Uttarakhand - Kathgodam. We met our fellow trekkers in this train for the first time - Paresh Bhai from Ahmedabad and Govind Bhai from Panvel, MH.

12.04.2024, Friday.

22:30 The train reached Kathgodam. Our KMVN's hotel TRH Kumaon Dwar just 5 minutes from Kathgodam railway station and we fell off to sleep in the clean rooms.

13.04.2024, Saturday - day 1 - reporting for the trek.

Our batch of 25 gathered on time and the long journey to Munsiyari starts. It is our base camp.

On the way, we passed by the Neem Karoli Baba Ashram, Kainchi Dham. It is approximately 3 hours from Kathgodam and 8 hours from Munsiyari. We saw it from the top and the road swirls next to it in the valley. I wish we could have stopped for darshan of this powerful place. Neem Karoli Baba was the avataar of Lord Hanuman. Jay Shri Ram.

Pandey Lodge at Munsiyari is our base camp.

The long spacious room accommodated 5 trek mates and it had 2 attached washrooms. The stay was comfortable in the clean room.

14.04.2024, Sunday - acclimatization day.

YHAI Delhi, the organiser of this trek had arranged a hike to the nearby Nanda Devi Mandir.

15.04.2024, Monday - flag off.

Our trek starts by a flag off ceremony and we walk into the jungle.

Our trek route will face the Panch Chouli peaks (5 snow clad peaks). And a detailed description of the trek will be given in the blog posts to follow.

19.04.2024, Friday - group breaks & election day.

Now the plan to RETURN actually started the moment we were seated in the bus from Kathgodam to Munsiyari.

It was election day. And public transport was not easily available. Some of our group members panicked and requested that the acclimatization can be forfeited (dangerous when the trek is an high-altitude one) and thankfully nothing of that sort happened. Members had their flights and trains booked and were apprehensive that they might miss them.

We had booked our return by helicopter and the ride was my life's first. Many of us had traveled in aeroplanes, but helicopter travel is rare. There is weight limit. Anyone above 85 kg and anyone's luggage above 5 kg would be overweight and will pay INR 100/- per kg. My luggage was was 8 kg above the permissible limit and I had to pay Rs. 800/- more. After taxation and luggage, my total fare for the helicopter ride was INR 4475/-.

The same friend who had booked impromptu tickets, got confirmed helicopter tickets for us.

The experience was good. It's choppy. No wonder, it is called a chopper 🚁.

The best part of this aerial journey is bypassing the 12 hour road trip, which dehydrated me completely while coming here.

7 antiperistaltic movements and eyes closed tight. Too much.

The 🚁 ride cuts the travel time to just 45 minutes. The pilot doesn't allow any recording even with a mobile. Flight mode is compulsory. He was shouting some instructions inside the cabin with the rotors on and we couldn't hear anything. We just nodded and actually didn't utter a word in the entire flight and gestured to our neighbours about the land formations seen from the top.

Yet frankly I did feel nauseous, but thankfully not as bad as the road trip.

From the top, Uttarakhand has only mountains, valleys, towns, and rivers. The mountains are lush green. The rivers are running dry.

Nainital is easily identifiable from the top, with the lake after which it is named and also the other lakes of Nainital.

From the chopper 🚁, when all the mountain ranges ended, our ride ended, with landing in the plains at Haldwani. It was hot and jolted us.

We had changed our train's boarding point to Haldwani and INR 20/- per head rickshaw (x 3 passengers = 60/-), dropped us to Haldwani railway station, which was just 15 minutes away.

Friends parted.

We took the Kathgodam - Delhi Junction train.

The train reached Delhi Junction at 3:30 am.

We rested till 6 am in the waiting room.

Delhi has lots of travel options, but we selected to walk the last mile after metro journey to a delicious breakfast at Janpath.

Now the heat awaits us, but my Delhi friend's plan saved us. Check out what Delhi has in store for us and it will be a pleasant surprise. A ride in my friend's Mercedes Benz!

Check out my trek experience with YHAI at Munsiyari Khaliya Top in Uttarakhand.

ED quizzes Rahul Gandhi; traffic to be hit in central Delhi, say police

Vehicular traffic will be affected in parts of central Delhi as Congress leader Rahul Gandhi appeared before the Enforcement Directorate for the second consecutive day in a money laundering probe, the Delhi Traffic Police said on Tuesday.

In a series of tweets, it posted information about the routes to be avoided even as it mentioned that necessary arrangements have been made as a precautionary measure.

Special Commissioner of Police (Traffic) SS Yadav told PTI, "Arrangements have been made to ensure the smooth flow of traffic for public transport as well as people commuting to Delhi so that they are not affected. As yesterday, we ensured that traffic flow was smooth. We will ensure it will remain smooth today as well."

Pov : he's that 'jab we met' wala Aditya but in a Delhi wala way.

He interestingly listens to your non stop bak bak when you both are sitting in the metro sharing your earbuds and listening to vintage Romantic Bollywood. Always admiring your face as you talk. Says "geet tum pagal ho chuki ho" to your "mai toh bhag Rahi hu" plans, goes roaming around with you, Holds all your bags while you bargain with that one shopkeeper in sarojini nagar goes on golgappas and kulfi dates with you, dances in the rain with you on "tum se hi" near India gate, gifts you janpath Wale jhumkas, his eyes don't leave you when you wear kajal and bindi, Brings that "ye lo jala do" energy in your life when something bothers you. he is a silent lover,He Pushes back your zulfe behind your ears, Feeds you roti sabzi while your mehandi is drying on your hands, helps you with your saree pleats and that's his way of telling you that he loves you,he is your 'Aditya'.
