  • this is Bhojgiri as confirmed by Locals when we visited in Feb. and adjacent mountain did not had any name which is currently tagged as Bhojgiri. Can u pls confirm your source of info?
  • we had there in March-14 & got the information from the locals & not from 01 person only. we confirmed it from 04 local peoples including the village sarpanch. we have some future plans of rock climbing in the area & hence verified the information from more & more people.
  • Dear Satish, This place is wrongly marked. What you have named Shirlop is actually Bhojgiri. I have verified this from 1) a villager Mr Kokate from Pachkewasti, which is at the base of Bhojgiri (what you call Shirlop). 2) I have also spoken to many other vilagers from Kokatwadi, taleran and Talmachi (atleast 15 different people in 3 villages). All have confirmed that what you have called shirlop is BHOJGIRI, What you have called BHOJGIRI is actually Daundya. Also, The part that you have marked Daundya / Devdandya is not limited to what you have marked. it includes the 2 peaks on the north (whi you have called BHOJGIRI. Please refer to my GPS trace and you will know what I mean. URL: http://www.everytrail.com/view_trip.php?trip_id=2785461&code=b6efc5a2a68245f18dca8626295efea3
