took part in a mountaineering expedition to Mount Rudugaira located at a height
of 19091 Ft in Garhwal Himalayas (Uttarakhand).The team underwent
extensive training in ice-craft, snow craft, and avalanche crevasse study
before scaling the peak. They attempted the peak in two groups. The first group
led by Col OK Pawar, expedition leader along with five cadets and four support
staff. They scaled the peak on September 18, 2014 and the second team led by Lt
Col A Thakur, Deputy Leader along with seven cadets and support staff braving
icy winds and bad weather scaled the peak on September 19, 2014.
The girl cadets while
interacting with the DG NCC recounted their maiden adventurous experience which
has given tremendous boost to their confidence and strength to face challenges
in future.
