Our guide wake up early to cook breakfast for us 5.15am. Whole night struggle to keep myself warm, very tough night. Daybreak arrives at 6.05am that morning, and I can’t wait to get up. Went to the kitchen, our trusted guide had already prepared our breakfast. I ask for a cup of hot boiling water, and make myself a cup of hot milk as a starter, and then followed by hot chicken porridge, and a pack of instant noodles. All these foods slowly keep my body warm, and I think I’m ready for my ascent to the summit now. Morning view on top of a small ridge at church camp 6.50am. While waiting for some of my friends for breakfast, I walked into one of the small ridge on the west site of our shelter house. Enjoyed bird's eye view of this village, the sun rises in the east, but is covered by thick white clouds, and the mountain range was covered by a fog of clouds. It’s like the mountain range wearing a wedding veil, breathtaking views. Muddy Trail 7.44am. It’s ti...

Entering Day 2 of my exploration trip to Mount Murud. Woke Up at 5.30am, had a very nice sleep last night. I lay on my bed again, very hesitate to wakeup, all of a sudden I listen “ho-ho-ho-ho-ho” wait a minute, that’s the sound of the horse. I peek at the windows, and look down. A few horses was just outside the Inn eating grass. How on earth they manage to get horses here, the road is very bad?!!! Bakelalan Inn I stayed in the same room with Sui Chin, the Inn here have more than 6 rooms, with each room 2 person. The temperature is about 23⁰C now, good thing they provide blanket. I felt panic all of a sudden, the place that we will stay tonight is about 2000m ASL, its going to be cooler than now. I didn’t bring any sleeping bag or warm jacket.  Sui Chin told me not to worry because he have a spare jacket, so he lend his spare jacket to me. We head down for breakfast, the lady owner cooked fried beehun, fried rice, and soup. I ordered a hot milo, I told myself I ...

Day 1 of my adventure, flight is at 6.10am to Kota Kinabalu. I woke up, look at the clock it was around 4am, I don’t feel sleepy at all. Will be meeting my team at the airport at 5am, so I still have another hour to do a final check in case I miss out anything. I only have one backpack, which weighted around 12kg, this is the average weight that I carry on my 3 days 2 nights camping. All of a sudden my phone rang, it was from Loong one of my team members, telling me that most of them are at the airport now. I check on my wrist watch, it was about 4.45am, and I look at the clock on the wall, same…. Should I be going to the airport now? Reached the Kuching International Airport about 5.10am, got my backpack to scan, and as I walk through the x-ray door, I’m clean! Meet up with my friends and some new team members at the café near the boarding gate. We all started to chat about what to expect on our journey, and calculate the time we need to reach our next destination. For all we...
