Cool, could not find your profile but found your page.

2012 should be even more bigger considering the fact that this travelog even before reaching Leh has roped in 5 confirmed people

Dear Ajay, Yes I am already counting 40-45 member team for next year. May be we have to do a full camp out Expedition. Bcos we will not be able to find many hotels where we can accommodate that many teammembers.
