My pursuit of my Achan’s dream – the 16th Trip – Brahmatal Trek Altitude 12250ft- 23rd Feb to 28th Feb 2019`
I went for this trek for the love of Roopkund as the base camp Lohajung was same for both Brahmatal & Roopkund and wanted to experience snow. Brahmatal trek has the best views of Mt Trishul & Mt Nanda Ghunti. Although we were not able to make it to the last summit point due to heavy snowfall and campsites were covered under the snow but still the views which we got at the highest point was magnificent.
Lohajung looked beautiful covered in snow. I was excited to meet my old trek guide Dhan Singh Bhaiya here with whom I had done my first Himalayan trek (Roopkund trek) in Sep 2017. He was equally thrilled to meet me and it was difficult for him to believe that I had actually remembered all the tips which he had shared. I was the slowest trekker in my first trek therefore he had accompanied me throughout the trek wherein he had shared tips thru stories & kept me motivated. These stories had helped me build my strengths not only for trekking but for my life too. I often use this tips when I have to motivate someone.
My takeaways were
Strength is Happiness
H of Growth mindset which I learnt was How to turn your weakness to your strengths in life
