Soliloquy of a Wandering Pilgrim

5 persons, 4 days and we brought down 200 kilos of platsic litter and another 100 kilos of misc garbage. They were brought down to the incineretor at the Darjeling zoo (thanks to Sumita Ghatak, DFO, Wildlife-I, Darjeeling)!   Wonder if this action that we have just done becomes infectious, and everyone starts picking up litter from the Singalila trails, the Army (SSB to be specific) stops throwing their empty alcohol bottles outside their camps, the private tea house owners collect plastic litter and keep their neighbourhood clean!!!! Imagine.. a better, cleaner mountains....( since we have raped our cities alreday...)...spare the mountains..if you please!   -- Adventure Mania official website: www.adventuremania.com Upcoming Trips blog: http://adventuremania-india.blogspot.com Raja's personal blog: http://himalaya-raja.blogspot.com Real Adventure Journeys Across Himalaya Call Raja:  +91 97487 61139 Optional Number :+91 92305 11139

Yesterday, when we reached the Darjeeling Zoo with 200 kilos of plastic litter and 100 kilos of mixed garbage and put it in the incinerator, it was a moment of satisfaction! In past 4 days, 5 of us worked on the Singalila Ridge trails and picked up as much rubbish as possible! It has been our continuous effort to act as a responsible trekking outfit and we will continue to do so in the days to come. I will post pictures and a short report here on my blog soon. I would like to thank our friends for their support and trust: Sumita Ghatak-Divisional Forest Officer- Wildlife -I Sabyasachi Talukdar- Uttar Banga Sambad Satyajit Kar- Ria Mount Support Suman Guhaneogy- Yak Equipments Sikhar Lodge- Tumling Siddhartha Lodge- Tumling Pandim Lodge- Kalipokhri hopefully we will be able to come out with a regular cleaning process on the Singalila Ridge soon. -- Adventure Mania official website: www.adventuremania.com Upcoming Trips blog: http://adventuremania-india.blogspot.com Raja's perso...
