Nimrat
Kaur
treks
in
the
Sahyadri
mountains
and
gives
us
some
pointers:
‘Monsoons
main
ghats
pe
trek
nahin
kiya
toh
kya
kiyaaa??!!!
‘I’m
no
expert,
I
trek
because
it’s
a
long
time
love-affair
but
reading
about
some
recent
trekking
tragedies
made
me
want
to
share
some
mini
pointers.
‘Please
ensure
you
ALWAYS
sit
down
for
pictures
if
you’re
in
flowing
water
or
high
up
somewhere
too
close
to
a
cliff.
‘Super
basic
but
most
important
to
ONLY
take
your
next
step
once
the
previous
one
is
steady.
‘Selfies
and
videos
ONLY
when
you’re
standing/walking
on
dry
rocks/even
forest
floor.
Even
with
the
best
of
trekking
shoes
and
gear,
there’s
lots
of
lose
mud
and
super
slippery
rocks
so
PLEASE
don’t
be
in
a
rush.
‘Try
to
wear
BRIGHT
colours,
or
carry
some
colourful
element,
makes
it
easier
for
rescuers
if
you
don’t
camouflage
with
the
forest
incase
God
forbid
there’s
a
fall
and
you’re
injured.
Going
deep
into
nature
comes
with
equal
amounts
of
thrill
and
responsibility…
‘Baaki
ab
ghats
par
garmi
bauhaut
badh
rahee
hai,
kaafee
photos
main
smiling
outside
dying
inside
waala
scene
tha…
So
jaldi
plan
banaao,
Sahyadri
ki
khulee
hawaa
khao!’
Urmila
Matondkar‘s
thought
for
the
day:
‘Gorgeous..honestly
is
nothing
but
state
of
mind..how
you
feel
and
more
importantly
how
you
make
others
around
you
feel.’
