Talking more about the trek.
Trek to Chaainsheel Bugyal is a Moderate level trek but it turns into a High Difficulty level trek when rain enters your way. This amazing trek was conducted by YHAI in April-2018.
But we faced extreme whether, continuous rainfall and snowfall.... First four groups could do it anyhow but Group-5, 6, 7 and 8 had to back out from the positions where they were.
I was in 8th Group and we had to back out from 10500 Feet high first higher camp...
