Bung Joggong Mount Summit Hike at Borneo Sarawak “卓恭”山攻顶记

Bung Joggong is the mountain where Sting Village (Kampung Sting) is, I camp on the home stay near the base mount for one night. The next morning, woke up at around 4.30am to hike to summit in hope to see the sunrise.  “卓恭”山是“史汀”村的一座山。我在这里露营一晚,第二天凌晨四点半就起身,准备攻顶看日出。 We started with our Kuching Adventure Team member, but we have no luck finding the correct trail to summit. We are very fortunate that we meet a friend who knows the way up, and he then lead us to the correct route. 我们一开始就与自己的团队先打前锋,不幸的是都摸索不到对了路线,结果浪费了很多时间。后来,一位识路的朋友往后追上,我们跟着他一起到山顶去。 It was still dark that time, I notice that we passed by a paddy field farm which is at the mountain slope. And the trail to the summit are mostly cover with dence wild grass.  但是四处一篇乌黑暗地,我隐约有进过一座稻田...到山顶的路真难走,一路上都是又高,又有刺的野草。 There was an abandon house there, which the owner had resettle to other places after the dam impounded. There is no river or any water source here, only way is by collecting rain water. It...

Kampung Sting and Bung Jogong Mount Exploration Trip 婆罗洲探险者的“史汀”村攻顶探险

The Bengoh Dam serve as a water reservoir dam for storage of raw water supply, raw water will be release for the Batu Kitang Water Treament Plant, and prevention of back flow of the saline water from reaching the Batu Kitang intake point, lastly is for flood mitigation during wet seasons. 位于古晋十哩的 “ 泵供 ” 水坝的功用是个用于储存原水供应的水坝。防止盐水回流到七哩储水池的吸入点,也用于用于在雨季时的防洪系统。 However, the drawback of building the damn…for the Bidayuh people, one of the ethnic groups in Sarawak, face a threat to their livelihood, traditional lands and culture with the development of the controversial Bengoh Dam.  Not to forget deforestation or logging for construction of the dam reservoir will eventually reduce the vegetation and the forest’s absorption capacity. When this happens, I know a group of Chinese environment care NGO which has this objective of care for the environment, yet all they do is just talk but no action.  Staying in their comfort zone, updating their facebook group page w...

Spat Waterfall Exploration near Sematan Silk Farm 靠近三马丹丝绸农场的瀑布游记

Besides camping, exploring waterfall is my second hobby. Its an enjoyment when I get to swim next to the waterfall, and let the water fall on my back. Its like a free massage to ease away the presure and worries.  除了露营,我也非常喜欢瀑布。可以在瀑布底嬉水对我来说是一个享受,冰冷清凉的水从高处涌下来,打在我背上,可以让我享有自然的按摩,来疏解我一天的压力。 This is a waterfall situated near the Sematan Silk Farm, and behind the waterfall is the Pueh Mountain, which is the 3rd highest mountain in southern Sawawak, Borneo. 这瀑布是坐落在靠近三马丹丝绸农场,瀑布的山后是“ PUEH"山,南砂第三高山。 I like this place so much, but the problem here is littering. I suspect these litter might belongs to the people who visited this place. Mother nature gives us such wonderful present, we have to work together to cheris and protect it, not to make the place dirty. 美中不足之处就是垃圾,应该是在此嬉水的人留下的。大自然给我们的礼物,我们要珍惜。保护大自然,我们人人有责。 Take nothing but photos, and leave nothing but footprint!!! 拜访大自然后,摄影留下回忆,走过留下脚印。千万别留垃圾,或是破坏树林草木。

Rock Garden Mount Murud at Sarawak Borneo 砂劳越姆鲁山的岩石公园

Mount Murud is the highest and sacred peak mountain in Sarawak with 2423 meter above sea level, I treked up Murud Mount and camp at the SIB Church Camp (2,135 metres above sea level). The trek takes us up the northern flank of the mountain, offering a magnificient panoramic views of the surrounding mountain view. The Church Camp is the largest evangelical mountain church in the nation, a pilgrimage site for thousands of people. The church camp is the only place to stay on this adventure.  姆鲁山是砂劳越最高的一座山峰,海拔2423米。我和队友们夜宿在半山腰的教堂,教堂旁边有大约二十多间的木屋,这是给信众们来朝圣住宿的地方。而我们就住在一栋两楼的宿舍,楼下有一间厨房。这里没有水电供应,喝是喝雨水,电有发电机,但是只有教堂有常年的活动时才使用(一年大约三次而已)。晚上气温下降到大约15度。 On my way up to the summit, I pass through a very different type of vegetation, the so called mossy forest, muddy trail route, waterfall ridge, and encounter beautiful carnivorous pitcher plants. What attracted me the most of this the Rock Garden. 往山顶的方向,一路会经过烂泥道,不同的植被森林,苔藓森林。而我最喜欢的就是这个岩石公园,这里有各式各样形状的大小岩石。 The Rock Garde...
