Too Tough Terrain to climb with Luggage
Crossing lot of Ridges Streams Enroute to Gujjar BaseAfter 7 km of walking, we reached a small clearing in the forest. In front of us was a beautiful tree with several hundred coins buried in its trunk. For a while we thought we had discovered what every man dreams . Dinesh (cook ) announced that this was to be our camping site for the day. He sid we cant make up till gujjar hut because it was already 3 pm still 6 Km steep trek leads to Gujjar Hut . We were a little disappointed at this - it was only around 3 pm and we were all ready for more action. But all of us was tired .The place was the valley of seven hills called Jungle camp site wasn't the normal where the tree we huge and big. Dingad stream is a route offered to cross the several up and down ridges, many samll and big streams and dense mixed forests of deodar, rhododendron (burans), oak, pine etc. provide an atmosphere of perfect peace and tranquility then we camped that night in the valley .

We gathered some wood and started a camp fire. Meanwhile we started preparing for the chilly night by putting on layers of woolens. We all gathered around the fire. Dinesh(cook ) Dhanvir (guide) and porter Ashish started sharing stories of their various treks. Their favorite stories seemed to be the ones in which things have gone horribly wrong. The trek in which they had heavy snowfall, and some of the team members had given up on the way back and started demanding them to camp on the glacier.
