We all in my office visited SinhGadh (a mountain near pune city) yesterday. It was a fantastic visit and I found myself very much energetic after this trip. We planned and scheduled everything for the day but at the end of the day almost all schedules were gone but we were happy with all that.
We all were supposed to meet at Dandekar Bridge at morning 8AM but as IST no one was there till that time except one. I reached at the same place with one of my colleague at 8.10am. For reaching there by 8.10am I woke up at 6.30 with the help of 5alarms and 3 snoozes because I generally wake at 8.30 to 9 am. At 9.10 am almost every one reached at Dandekar Bridge other than 4 people. They were suppose to come directly at Paytha, The station for the climbing.
We started our journey by around 9.20am with 3 bikes, one scooty and one auto. After one start we stopped at Khadakwasla Dam only. I opted for bike instead of auto. Here we stopped for a while took some photographs and got moving.
Khadakwasla DamOther than Dam Sahil and I stoped at a location for some more photographs but for only 5 minute.
Short stop
We all reached to Paytha(our base station of SinghGadh) by 10.30 and after 10 minute 4 more guys reached there. All those who came by auto reached 20 minute before us.
Just walking to Paytha
We started climbing mountain at 11am morning with 13people other three went by bus.

At initial stage 1/4th of the distance Suni,Amit and I were the person who were ahead from everybody. After some time only Sunil and I were much forward than other. Nearly half of the distance we crossed and found no body was near us so we waited for everyone. Here we were missing our one more friend who is in Indore and whom we use to called awesome some time because that beauty was really awesome and awesome is favorite word of Abhishek.
Other than us after around 15 minute Prateek and Sateesh reached to that point the guys about whom everyone thought they won’t able to make it easily. They broke myth of everyone but it was not enough in fact they reached at top also in first and second position respectively. After these two few other team members came but the most interesting was Neelams entry, Sahil was pulling her to upside and I must say unless help of Sahil and Nishad Neelam couldn’t have reach to top by that route. At last Amit came there and we waited for a long time. In the mean while everyone was climbing upward. Sunil, Amit and I reached to top at last and (but day before the trip we said proudly that our group will be first, and we came first in the list but from bottom.)Final team that means our team reached to top at 1.10PM that means we took around 2hour and 10 minute for reaching there. After that we took buttermilk and lemon water with peanut.

Than we moved to the hut restaurant and we took lot of snaps on the way. We played dart game there with the board that we had with us after some time we consumed lot of bhajiyas with lassan chatni. Then some more photographs and fun before lunch. We completed our lunch by 2.30. Feast was too good. Feast included Bhakri(jwar roti),pithla (something like Kadhi), Baingan Bharta , Curd ,mataka usal and lassan chattni. Food was so good and about baingan Bharta I don’t like baingan at all but I found it delicious at that place.

Taking Lunch
After lunch all played housie Game other than me. We completed 2 round of this game by 4pm and then we walked to watch some more points at the top with Snacks. There beauty was ultimate. It was like nature painted that all with its finest colors. It was green and white mixed dilute fog was giving a special effect in the entire scene.

After this we were suppose to come back by the same route by which we reached at top but we found sun was getting down in the west and we found we won’t able to make it on time. So we decided to go down by jeep. We reached down to our base station Paytha. We reached there by 5.50pm.After this I came back to my room with Amit because he was leaving the place that time only. Other people left Paytha just after 20-30 Minute followed by us.
After coming to home also I was not feeling tired at all this was the great thing of the entire tour.
