We did it!
Managed to climb both the peaks in a day. Thanks to raghunandan for driving us around.
Life is short to be filled with ego and jealousy. While world is too big to be covered for the given life time. Quest is to enjoy every bit of the wonders on earth till the existence. And therefor I roam!

twin peaks
17th September is nearing and from now it's no turning back.
Me along with few trekkers put up a plan to climb two peaks in one day.
Well I never did it before but great. Let's see how it works out
PLAN:-
5:15 AM from my place to Hebbal drive
6:00 AM start to Skandagiri and be at the base by 7:00 AM
7:15 Start the climb to skandagiri
Assuming it take 2 hours to climb the peak and takes another 1 hour to descend should take us approximately 4 hours for return journey with 1 hour as rest period.
11:45 AM start to tumkur via bypass.
on the way have light lunch and proceed to madhugiri.
travel time including lunch will be 2 hours 30 mins
start at 2:30 to climb madhugiri.
takes two hours to reach on top and return will be 1 hour 30 mins. half an hour rest at top and start down.
if we start at 5:00 from top then we should be back by 6:15 to 6:30 PM.
hmm.. still sound cool.
I'll keep my fingers crossed for rain no to spoil our sport.
