The Sahyadris in the monsoons
Western Ghats are a mountain range in India that run along the western edge of the Deccan Plateau, and separate the plateau from the narrow coastal plain of the Arabian Sea.
The stretch along Maharashtra and Northern Karnataka is known as Sahyadris.
The windward side is simply awesome during monsoons with the densely saturated winds from Arabian sea pouring on the ranges giving birth to numerous waterfalls and fauna.
I love them because these are the first ranges that i ever trekked and there are so many peaks close to each other that you can locate the last peak you conquered...... moreover it will always have memories of my college days and friends embedded which i always fear from getting lost.
