‘The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul.' Forty three junior school boys along with the headmaster Mr. P.Chaturvedi, Mrs. J.Chaturvedi, Mr. Paresh Mahawar, Mr. Pradeep Upadhyay and Mr. Praveen Sharma embarked on yet another adventure in the mountains. This was the tenth trekking expedition by the young trekkers of Mayo College, Junior School, Ajmer .

On the first day at Rishikesh, the boys went for a walk to Lakshman Jhula for warming themselves. The boys visited a thirteen storeyed temple and worshipped the idols. In the evening they attended Ganga Arti at Swargaashram Ghat. Our base camp was at Ukhimath, a place from where we have completed three treks. Our first trek was of Deoriataal, a high altitude lake at 8500 feet. On the following day we paid homage at Tri-yugi Narayan temple and Kaali temple. Boys played in the chilling cold water of the river near Kaali Temple .

The next day was the main climb to the Tunganath (the highest Shiva Tample in the world). We started from picturesque place called Chopta which is known as mini-Switzerland of India . Up next on the action packed itinerary was river rafting from Shivpuri experiencing five interesting rapids up to Ramjhula. Boys enjoyed Artificial Wall Climbing, Confidence Course, Burma Bridge, Double Rope Bridge, Tarzan Jump, Dry River Crossing Race etc. at HAI – Himalayan Adventure Institute. They visited Gun Hill Top at Mussoorie through cable car. Next Day was a full day scheduled for sightseeing in Dehradun which include visit to the Robbers' Cave, Forest Research Institute and Gompa- The Buddhist Monastery. The trekkers will remember the smell of pine needles, the silver of oak leaves and the red of maple, the call of the Himalayan cuckoo, and the mist, like a wet face cloth, pressing against the hills.
