short account....

it's been some time since im back from Tahan....
to write an account on the trip...omg...too laychey....

in short, it was a trek of a lifetime... meaning to say... i'll only go there once in a lifetime!! haha.... it was darn shag... but frankly speaking...it was an experience... we were lucky, in my opinion, that it rained on the 2nd day... who'll haf a chance to trek along the ridges of mountain ranges with wind rising from one side and rushing over the other side...at the same time raining?! (not to mention that there was lightning too... no wonder RY say he feel "hum" at some point in that day) it'll blow u away, literally!

other than the usualy jungle trek, which makes up large part of the trek, we got to do come river crossings too....8 in a day! with many many leeches along the way.... i kena abt 4-6, cant really acct....there's quite a stretch of rockclimbing too.... virtually vertical walls which we need to find hand/foot holds to make our way up/down to the various peaks...


typical scenery we had along the ridges!!



there i m with the silver raincover....



river crossing in Day 1... cool eh?
