Rock Climbing For The First Time
Thousand of storms were running in my mind when I came to this Mountaineering institute (SVIM, Mount Abu). I entered the gate and searched for someone to answer my questions. There were two people standing and discussing near the office gate which directly comes after the main gate. I asked them politely about where I was going to stay, and they responded by placing before me one register, and said,"Enter your details here and go in the room no. 101". It was 7 o'clock when I came into that room. 7:30 was the time for dinner and the bell was rang at the exact time. I was feeling Nostalgic!
After dinner the assembly took place and we came to know the schedule of our next 10 days.
Awaiting the morning! We woke up at 5:30 and went for the Mountain walk. I took my first breath in the mountains on 10/12/2016. I came to know many things about the mountains and we started climbing and rappelling from day one itself.
