We reached Jandrai Museum (Last Jeepable point) @ 07: 00 pm & shifted in our jeep for Thal.

[BILAL3538]

Reached Thal bazar @ 08: 00 pm, mostly shops & hotels were closed but few were still open for us

Decided to take dinner from there with Chappal kababs (H)

[BILAL3538]

Chappali Kababs !!!

Now for short period sky was clear with less clouds so surrounding looks more Beautiful now !

I had not taken a single shot on our way down... Now looking at this picture I regret my decision of packing the camera in the backpack. Since the sun was quite bright the pictures would have been really outstanding (like this one).....

And after Dinner we have two options to stay night,

1. Stay in Thal Bazar as some hotels were available,

2. Camp in Kumrat Forest Rest House

We decided to move forward & camp in Rest House which was 10-15 Km away from Thal bazar & jeep took almost 1 hour to reach there.

Upon reaching there we found Rest House was vaccant (Earlier on phone we were refused that no space avlbl by forest office Sheringal)

So we availed the room facility instead of camps;)

Unexpectedly Sky was crystal clear & Mr. Murtaza captured some outstanding night shots & then we all went to sleep.

That's the end of Day 2

The only picture that I had taken on our way back was when we were crossing a wooden bridge on the Panjkura river. The last 3-4 wooden logs were missing and when we crossed it our jeep got stuck in the gap between the logs. It was a really heart stopping moment as for one second we thought we will be falling into the river. Since this happened on our way back most of our jeep was off the bridge. But had it happened the other way all of our jeep would have been on the bridge and it could have proved quite dangerous. After inspection we found that one tyre was bang in the center of the log while the other was off the log. So to cross this one has to put both tyres on the edge of the log. Local people helped us to get our jeep out of the bridge.

It was really scary az it was getting dark,I too captured it by mobile cam ,

This picture shows the clear story of incident. These logs were not proper according to jeep & jeep have to cross by moving on inner edges but our driver did a mistake he tried to move on middle of logs so left rare tire slipped & stuck in gap !

Thanks to locals who helped us a lot pull the jeep out from these logs.

At this point on the way to Jandrai.. I left the jeep and guided the driver. I told my group, that I was expecting that you people also leave jeep. The group didn't ear on my point and on return this happened.

Lesson to Learn: Always offload from the jeep while crossing such areas and filling CNG etc.
