The group of 114 participants including 102 girls was flagged off from Kala Kendra Jammu by co- chairman of Tawi Trekkers J&K, Zorawar Singh Jamwal. President of the Club Ram Khajuria and along with others office bearers also accompanied the trekkers.
The budding trekkers were pleasantly surprised when Everester Rajiv Sharma of Udhampur who climbed Everest about 27 years back in 1993 also joined them for the trek at Manthal along with his wife and daughter Himika, an international skier. The young trekkers were thrilled to learn so much about mountaineering and mountains during their interaction with the veteran mountaineer.
