Though I haven't read the entire log, it appears to be good.

Nice travelogue, Arvinder!
I admire people who vlountarily go for walks in the desert!
For that matter, people who walk a lot anywhere!

I think this is BCMT's first desert trek travelogue. (??)

Re: National Desert Trekking (Nov-2007)
Thanks to all of you for the appreciations and comments.

@Prasham -- It was the 3rd day when we had 13kms of Camel Safari and 3kms of Trek.

If you have time please go through the blog, it has day by day details of what we did during the whole Trek.

Cheers
Arvinder
