Lonad Caves & Pise dam - Places less travelled near Mumbai

Image
Sundays are rare and few that I get to enjoy. I had one more week off on Sunday and I didn't really wanted to wile it away at home doing nothing, Since all trekking events in summer's are night trek so couldn't join as Saturday was working for me. Dr Ajay from Wanderlust decided a half day outing to  some place less travelled and it was decided we go to LONAD CAVES near Kalyan / Bhiwandi and PISE dam. I had never heard about it before and not much information was available on net except from few who had visited the place before. Since it was close to Mumbai and was sort of day outing so I decided to join Ajay. Meeting place was decided at ST stand close to Borivali station east at 7am, We were only 3 of us, Dr Ajay, Dr Bharat and me, As soon as we reached ST stand, bus for Bhiwandi was ready and waiting for us !!!! Took around 1hr to reach Bhiwandi in the morning. On enquiring about bus for Pise dam, we were informed it was at 8.30am. Since we had time of around 15minutes,
