Dehradoon a place where cool people live, really
people of Dehradoon have helping nature. Dehradoon is capital of Uttrakhand,
since I saw CM’s house when I was passing for a picnic spot.
Lets come on my journey. I reached Dehradun in eve,
and started getting details of all picnic spots nearby. One rickshaw driver
gave me complete details that there are 3 points worth watching. Gucchu point (robbers
cave), saidhara(later I knew it is actually Sahastradhara) and Buddha Temple. He
said since it is eve, so we can only view one point either saidhara or gucchu
point, since saidhara was sounding like a temple, which I already seen in the
morning only. So I asked him how much for gucchu point, he said Rs200, it was a
big amount for me, so I said him Ill come later if I want to go. To confirm the
fare I asked a local vendor, about the route to gucchu point and its fare. He
said me hire a Vikram (taxi name) and go to parade ground and then hire a bus,
it will take me to gucchu point and further 2kms downwards pedal yatra. I did
the same, as soon as I entered Gucchu point it mesmerized me. It was waterfall,
but to reach there I had to go in between the mountains on foot in water nearly
500m-700m in the cave.
I removed my shoes and put them in my backpack, I
had to carry my bag on my shoulders only, I had no choice. When I put my foot
in water people nearby which came out of cave were talking about snakes in the
cave, I scared listening this. I thought pahle hi to apan hoshiyari me akele aa
gae hain aur koi saanp kaatkhaya to ghar vale bolenge “aur jao akele ghumne
firne”. However I went in the cave for 50m and decided to quit. Since it was
all dark
And all people were coming out only, I thought If I
go in and there is no one and if something happens to me no one will know till
the next day. I came out of the point, and started going 2kms upwards; I was
tired like hell after covering so long distances from morning. Still I took
lift from gucchu point stop and reached parade ground.
Abhi 3rd Day ki kahani baaki hai, abhi
raat bhi to baki hai…..
good decision -"if something happens to me no one will know till the next day."
