Chakrateerth

We wake up at 5:00am. After getting the breakfast we started our trek again. It was only 7:15am. Pushkar ji told us that today our destination was Chakrateerth. He told us in between we will take the packed Lunch also. The road is quite well marked except the bolder zone, so we don't need to wait for him.

We found a large Stony caves on our way. Our guide Pushkar Singh informed us that this cave was easily accommodated more than 15 people, but the shepherds spoiled the cave. After 10mints of a walk, we reached the place named by “Belpatti”

As per Pushkar ji, This is the right place to take shelter in right as the source of water is near the place. Anyway after taking sometime rest, we proceed. There was a mild bolder zone. We tried to cross the zone quickly as Pushkar ji suggested us just touch the stone by feet not stay there more than 1 sec. After 1 KM we saw a large single stone. As per Pushkar Ji it was Bhim’s gada. From there we can view the Kuber Parvat which was partially covered in clouds. Then we found a mid height accent. One can view waterfall far away.

Pushkar ji Informed us the SahasraDhara Waterfalls would be started after this accent. After 500mtrs, we found the path was on the ridge of mountains & found the saharadharas on our left side. On our right side we saw the Glacier sources of Alaknanda. The path was approx 1km. Then we need to cross some small streams which were created by the sahasradhara waterfalls.

Then we reached a large meadow which is called the sahasradhara Meadow. On left side we can saw the waterfalls, on the right side there were small mountains. In between there was soothing green fields. There were some colourful hubs here & there which gives our eyes a soothing feelings. Soma was too much impressed & wanted to set our camp during our return time.

We took our packed lunch there. It was an amazing feelings to take lunch such a meadow with warm sunlight & cool breeze. We can view the accent tail in front of us which was the trailor of Chakrateerth Wall.

After lunch we have started our walking. Though the accent was creating doun=bt in mind, but we were crossed it very easily. This time I was really feel proud of my performance. I did not feel any tiredness.

After crossing the Bolderzone, it was a semi-normal flat road. That time my speed was increased & I quickly cross the road. Soon I faced a large stream. I did not find any way to cross the stream.

So I was waiting for Pushkar Ji to help me to cross the stream. It was really a dangerous stream with high tide. After half an hour, Pushkar Ji came & help me to cross the stream. After that the road was quite easy. I reached Chakrathirth Meadow after 1hr of easy walk.

It was 2:10pm when I reached Chakrathirth Meadow. Our porters put the tent at the end of the meadow & spread the mat to take rest. I laid down there. It was an awesome experience. They gave us hot water & papaya. We were waiting for others.

After 1:30 hours all are came. We took tea for refreshment with some snacks. Our guide told us they would like to provide dinner early, as we should start our tomorrow treak early. So we just entered inside the tent as cold wind did not allow us to stay outside. before dinner we enjoyed bonfire sometime & then we took our dinner.

After dinner pushkar ji asked us to come ouside the tent. Mt. Choukhamba was clearly visible. But the cold wind did not allow us to stay outside.So I did not took the phote. It was my great mistake. During the whole trip I didnot view Mt.Chukhamba again. But the single moment was awesome.
