Nice....been long time...though had covered up to Gallu Devi Temple from trail splitting from trail to Guna Devi Temple....and got a reference about this site and location that I longed to cover....but now with your inputs it will be easy to check in :D
and yes Triund campsite is now commercialized with all kind of tourists....the grade and climb plus no cafe up there (this Durga Temple) will sure discourage nuisance and trash making tourists....!
