right Siddharth sir; these ghats are treacherous than any other. it was so cold that i barely could doorplate. the atmosphere was no less heavenly though. with mountain peaks at a hand's distance, it was superb. Doorplated for almost three hours at a stretch from Subhramanya to Sakleshpur.
not only mee\, the pilgrims who filled up the GEN coaches at Subhramanya also took out their mobile cams to click out. it was click-click everywhere with roars before each tunnel entrance.
