This is one place where i get the maximum solace in whatever littele I do. Kodachadri is netsled in the western ghats. The surrounding rain forests are of most pristine beauty in nature. It was about 9 years ago that a couple of my friends had led me on a virgin trekking trip of kodachadri. It was love at first sight for me and i built an eerie relationship with the proud mountains. There are a lot of hidden meanings in the timeless boulders and steep rockfaces the silent spectators to millions years of history could indeed give us excellent advice alas if only they could talk.

The feeling of euphoria that enacpsulates ones self on reaching the summit and hours of trudging and treading on narrow and steep paths infested by the natures blood suckers Yuck the Leeches is in a class of its own and no words can explain it and better left to underatnd by feeling it.

The rain forests of the western ghats have been flourishing for the past thousands of years and its only in the last couple of decades that humans the last of the god's creation have threatened its existance. Mining logging hunting and other human interference in the cosystem has brought the forest on the brink of extinction and now it ios upto the human race to see to it that we indeed pass on a legacy to the next generation instaed of a baren and sterile landscape.
