කුවේණි විජයට දෙස් තැබූ යක්දෙස්සා ගල (Yakdessagala 540m) | |
 Yakdessagala first came across my senses in 2011 while I was on top of Yapahuwa and again last year when I visited Wellagala rock. The temptation of conquering this rock surged after seen Dinesh Dekkers video which prompted me to do so ASAP! I must thank Anupama who guided me in every way he can to make our journey a success! |
