The kausani expedition

It all started with a "yes, we want break" feeling, that we boarded our vehicles to get to see the nature in its purest and refreshing form.

Kausani, is a hill station 45 miles away from nainital. Yet it is not commerically very well developed like other famous tourists places....but one can attend the nature in its best form.
Our hopes of being a spectator to the great himalaya range dimished with the arrrival of monsoon clouds..the peaks werent visible. But not enough to loose our hope..cause we knew a heavy rain is all we need to get a clear view of himalayas..and subsequently a heavy downpour of water...made ambience clear to thousand of miles...and we standing at a height of 2600 ft above sea level..could see well, the awesome beauty of nandadevi peaks as well as the trishul peaks.

Next morning, we awake knowing we have to work hard all throught the day while visiting all major spots in kasuani. Of all, i can surely say the rudhradhari place...was the best to visit...situated right in the middle of dense forest was a waterfall...that was our goal. ..the jungle was more on the lines of corbett national park...we saw great diversification of wildlife ..and became spectator to the best of nature...we crossed fast flowing rivers....met dangerous yet astonishing creatures and animals...encountered a leopard...and were in ecstatic mood when we realized that the leopard got afraid, thus fled away and instead of vice-versa...now we were in the middle of jungle..moving on rocks...in between shrubs...right on our way to the waterfall...that was still 2 miles away....it was strange not to see any other human being...except us....and as rightly quoted by our little 10 year jungle denizen..zebu..."that he took us through a wrong way meant for jungle inhabitants only....the right way was a solid marble path..that lead directly to the waterfall....and that we were moving in b/w a jungle..just for his fun".....to be continued..
