&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;Coastal trekking is not as popular in India as it should be. Not very takers for walking along with the huge coastal line India offers. No one has explored much in this erena except trekking in Goa which is reduced to walking from one beach to another but a serious route has yet to be established. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;I suggest to hardcore trekkers to explore this scenic land starting from North Goa to South Goa. North Goa does not have plam trees and most of the time you will be walking under Sun- so start early if you do not like a Sun tanned skin.&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;Same situation is in Kerala - not much takers for coastal trekking which could have been a boon for looking deep into village lives of people living at coast.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://c.services.spaces.live.com/CollectionWebService/c.gif?cid=2511171439322316286&amp;page=RSS%3a+COASTAL+TREKKING+INDIA&amp;referrer=" width="1px" height="1px" border="0" alt=""&gt;&lt;img style="position:absolute" alt="" width="0px" height="0px" src="http://c.live.com/c.gif?NC=31263&amp;amp;NA=1149&amp;amp;PI=73329&amp;amp;RF=&amp;amp;DI=3919&amp;amp;PS=85545&amp;amp;TP=himadventures.spaces.live.com&amp;amp;GT1=himadventures"&gt;</description><category>Adventure Outdoor Himalayas</category><comments>http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!214.entry#comment</comments><guid isPermaLink="true">http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!214.entry</guid><pubDate>Tue, 29 Apr 2008 02:29:50 GMT</pubDate><slash:comments>2</slash:comments><msn:type>blogentry</msn:type><live:type>blogentry</live:type><live:typelabel>Blog entry</live:typelabel><wfw:commentRss>http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!214/comments/feed.rss</wfw:commentRss><wfw:comment>http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!214.entry#comment</wfw:comment><dcterms:modified>2008-04-29T02:29:50Z</dcterms:modified></item><item><title>Kedarnath- Badrinath, new route by Tapin Pandit,58 kms only</title><link>http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!212.entry</link><description>&lt;div&gt;Tapan Pandit, a teacher from kolkatta has discovered a new route of only 58kms by trek between KEDARNATH and BADRINATH.

The train took almost same time in covering the return distance from Kakapora to Badgam. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The train has air-conditioned coaches with heating system and push-back seats. This is for the first time in the history of Indian Railways that a train with all these facilities will cover short distances in a particular area/region. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;An inspection for opening of Railways for the carriage of passengers was also carried out on the occasion. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;With this successful trial run, a new chapter has been added in the history of Indian Railways.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://c.services.spaces.live.com/CollectionWebService/c.gif?cid=2511171439322316286&amp;page=RSS%3a+Successful+trial+run+of+train+in+Kashmir&amp;referrer=" width="1px" height="1px" border="0" alt=""&gt;&lt;img style="position:absolute" alt="" width="0px" height="0px" src="http://c.live.com/c.gif?NC=31263&amp;amp;NA=1149&amp;amp;PI=73329&amp;amp;RF=&amp;amp;DI=3919&amp;amp;PS=85545&amp;amp;TP=himadventures.spaces.live.com&amp;amp;GT1=himadventures"&gt;</description><category>Travel</category><comments>http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!201.entry#comment</comments><guid isPermaLink="true">http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!201.entry</guid><pubDate>Sat, 10 Nov 2007 10:11:56 GMT</pubDate><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><msn:type>blogentry</msn:type><live:type>blogentry</live:type><live:typelabel>Blog entry</live:typelabel><wfw:commentRss>http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!201/comments/feed.rss</wfw:commentRss><wfw:comment>http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!201.entry#comment</wfw:comment><dcterms:modified>2007-11-10T10:11:56Z</dcterms:modified></item><item><title>Talking about Medicines which help in AMS</title><link>http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!200.entry</link><description>&lt;p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Quote &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;a href="http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!199.entry"&gt;Medicines which help in AMS&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;here is always a debate on use of medicines in AMS. I would suggest that attitude should me to avoid factors of AMS.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;1. Work high and sleep low: This is one of the oldest formula but as climbing is becoming more and more expesnive- people are trying to play with human body. But if you work high and sleep at low altitude-you can always have safe and tension free time in mountains. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;2. Drinking Water:Afterall it is water which plays important role when you start your jounrey and then walking from mountain base village. If you can concentrate on your water input and urine output-you can always avoid having AMS. In colder and high places- drink warm water as much as posible-this also helps in having less pressure on heart and kidneys.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;3. Diazepam /Alprazolam: These are good muscle relaxant besides giving you good start of sleep. Should not be regularly used and should not be overdozed.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;4. Disprin/Aspirin: are first medicine of choice when headaches are there. They also make blood THIN to pass through small cappilaries. This medicine is FIRST AID in heart attacks and chest pains also. But creates GESTITIS-so should not bemixed with any alcohoal beavarge-can cause severe vommitting.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;5. Diclofenic Sodium: In India-popular brand is VOVRAN-S and VOVARAN-M&lt;br&gt;Both are good muscle relaxant.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;6. USE OF GARLIC: This is oldest but most effective than having any medicine. GARLIC chewing creates bad odor but helps in controlling blood pressure and thus AMS.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;WHAT TO DO IF AMS IS FOUND: Should always retreat from mountains. Never stay high-this could be fatal.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;COMBIFLAM: This is INDIAN TRADEMARK which is good and safe as it works both as analgesic as well as anti-inflammatory.&lt;br&gt;GUM PAINT: This is most helpful and reduces use of sleeping pills as pain of gums is common in climbing [ Cold water from streams and glaciers can cause ]. Gum paint acts like local anesthesia and climber do not feel pain.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;img src="http://c.services.spaces.live.com/CollectionWebService/c.gif?cid=2511171439322316286&amp;page=RSS%3a+Talking+about+Medicines+which+help+in+AMS&amp;referrer=" width="1px" height="1px" border="0" alt=""&gt;&lt;img style="position:absolute" alt="" width="0px" height="0px" src="http://c.live.com/c.gif?NC=31263&amp;amp;NA=1149&amp;amp;PI=73329&amp;amp;RF=&amp;amp;DI=3919&amp;amp;PS=85545&amp;amp;TP=himadventures.spaces.live.com&amp;amp;GT1=himadventures"&gt;</description><category>Adventure Outdoor Himalayas</category><comments>http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!200.entry#comment</comments><guid isPermaLink="true">http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!200.entry</guid><pubDate>Sat, 10 Nov 2007 10:09:16 GMT</pubDate><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><msn:type>blogentry</msn:type><live:type>blogentry</live:type><live:typelabel>Blog entry</live:typelabel><wfw:commentRss>http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!200/comments/feed.rss</wfw:commentRss><wfw:comment>http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!200.entry#comment</wfw:comment><dcterms:modified>2007-11-10T10:09:16Z</dcterms:modified></item><item><title>Medicines which help in AMS</title><link>http://himadventures.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!22D9791E8AE9BDFE!199.entry</link><description>here is always a debate on use of medicines in AMS.

You must balance being properly clothed and equipped with your weight allowance and your budget. Along with the information on this page, we encourage you to contact your agency or   with any questions as you get ready for your trip and / or before you consider making an expensive gear purchase. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Remember: The layering of clothing is considered an outdoor art form.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;Men's Clothing &amp;amp;

There has been a lot of snowing along that route in the past few days. And since it (the snowfall) has occurred before time, a lot of trekkers were stranded. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;No permission is being given to trekkers at present either for Uttarkashi or Chamoli,&amp;quot; Kumar said, adding that &amp;quot;&lt;b&gt;No other group is stranded as of now&lt;/b&gt;.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;A team of German and Indian trekkers that was scheduled to take the same route as the Russian group has returned from the base camp after the snowfall.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Earlier rescue efforts were hampered as helicopters were snowed in and ground rescue teams could not reach the region, which lies at an altitude of between 18,000 and 21,000 feet (5,486 and 6,401 metres).&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
