Bhivpuri Waterfall Rapelling Experience



Waterfall Rappelling with Tattva Adventures Group  Bhivpuri (Maharashtra)   on 11th September 2016. . . . . 
The day starts early !!! As per the post giving information about the Bhivpuri Waterfall Rapelling event , the train to be taken was 5.20 a.m. Karjat local (!!!!) . It does take mad but motivated people to catch a 5.20 am train on a Sunday . .But then  . .there you are When the train left from Bhivpuri station, there were ten of us (including Jaal Dedhia - the Event Head







) . We were later joined by two more adventurers (who had missed the earlier train). After the mandatory introductions (in which poor Jaal is informed that none of the participants have ever done rapelling before. )  we move towards the base village by local auto rickshaw in which   somehow  five of us manage to squeeze in addition to the auto driver. We reach the base village without falling out of the auto, with two breaks for a petrol refill and an unexpected hiccup in one of the vehicles. After a yummy breakfast and chai the mini trek commences to the rapelling site. Absolutely delightful weather with sun playing hide n seek occasionally makes the trek extra fun. The technical team has all the equipments ready  and after the instructions all of us buckle up and are nervously ready for the action. To our team leaders credit , he chose not to get a disclaimer signed from us !!!
We pose for pics in all paraphernalia ( partly because no one is sure what state we will be at the end of the rapelling adventyre). All of us do the descent with a whole lot of knocks, slips and sliding , but what matters is we complete the descent without mishap. Once the main agenda is through . . .then the fun in the water body starts with unlimited splashing and laughter. Once done . . . .we descend to the base village to a yummy typical Maharashtrian village meal. Special mention to be made of the small stream crossing in which most of us managed to slip and fall. 
Talk about small bonuses to top up a super awesome day . . .We manage to reverse ride a Karjat train and travel comfortably back to our respective stations. Sone pe suhaaga , during  the return journey  Jaal successfully transfers everyones Rapelling video to them via Shareit . . 
All in all a day extremely well spent . . . . . Tnx Team Tattva and fellow Rapellers for another memorable trip :)
