    Hi all,

    I went on a 3 day Jungle trek this month in the mountains near the pilgrim city of Tirupati in India. Quite an amazing experience... :) I would like to share my experience with y'all...

    Cheers!

    That was the big group you had there :p
    I usually prefer wilderness visits in small groups of 2-3 people, sometime even alone. :p

    Yes, it was a beautiful place... The jungle was safe... Just a few panthers, wild elephants, large bears, and most dangerous of all... wild dogs... a few hyenas...

    Leaving the city life behind for a few days was very challenging. Simple things like clean drinking water was scarce. It was fun, but not very comfortable... :) It certainly was a great experience.

    Yeah... great group... Good people... :) Had a lot of fun together...
