Mhow - A Magical Mystery Tour

Album: Mhow - A Magical Mystery Tour

Most of these pictures were presented at IRFCA Chennai in Jan '07 but never uploaded to the gallery thereafter due to sheer procrastination on my part! They were taken by Bharat Vohra and I with a lot of logistical help from my brother-in-law Col Suneet Malik who was doing the Senior Command Course at Mhow at that time. The aerial shots were taken by my cousin Shrimoy who was earning his CPL at Indore at the same time. He joined me on a train ride up and down the ghat section one day and was so charmed by the beauty of the Choral Valley that he decided to revisit it - from the air! Mohan Bhuyan

Trekking the Shiradi Ghats.

Album: Trekking the Shiradi Ghats.

2 days, 55 km, rain and shine, trollies and trains, bridges and tunnels, bags and tents, MTR ready to eat and Cup-o-noodles and a never ending urge to get to Subhramanya Road from Sakleshpur on foot.
A set of photos taken during the trek along the ghat section in the Sakleshpur-Subrahmanya section, by Ramdev Gowda, Pawan Koppa and Bizzy Mishra.
