yeah.. i hate climbers who litter also.. spoils the environment and breeds mosquitoesOriginally posted by Maya061:ohh.. sorry that's indonesian for meter above sea level.
how high is those mountains ? usually took how many days for one journey ? i want to climb kinabalu, how's the track ? issit hard ?
abt the fierce monkeys that's true. whether it's dirty or not .. i haven't climb there. perhaps yeah.. i hate those climbers who throw the garbage in mountains. so irresponsible..
oh.. hello Bear, yesterday you were absent. got many things to do lately ??
berkilah and ophir are usually a day's climb
not too bad.. ophir's a bit boring and steep though.. berkilah route is along ariver.. so it's quite fun
kinabalu is the highest mountain in south east asia.. but i think lately, they say some other mountain in iran jaya is measured to be slightly higher.. can't remember the exact height.. i think it's 4101m.. it's an easy climb.. cos usually u take transport up to midway before u climb it.. takes about 2 days to reach the summit and one day to climb down.. it's VERY beautiful up there... maybe i can show u the photos when u come singapore.. the view is just breathtaking .. i've seen 60+ yr old climb up before.. of cos, they had porters to carry their stuff
oh ya, i went to gunung tahan also.. highest in west malaysia.. can't remember the height.. this one is tougher.. takes 4 days to climb up.. and 3 days to climg down.. and that's at a slower pace and a longer route... but it's very clean.. primary forest.. very wonderful natural surroundings... awesome experience.. you need to cross seven rivers along the way.. it's an unforgettable experience -
last place i climbed was ophir...
before that i was at the omnimax theatre watching 'kilimanjaro'...
hope i get to go hiking sometime soon -
wah... kilimanjaro.. cool leh.. i heard it's damn sui up there
-
yah boy, they went from tropical to desert to snow...Originally posted by sillyme:wah... kilimanjaro.. cool leh.. i heard it's damn sui up there
i wish i could be there

wild dogs cry out in the night
as they go restless
longing for some solitary company
i know that i must do what's right
sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus
above this savagery
i seem to cure what's deep inside
frightened of this thing that i becomeOriginally posted by sillyme:wah... kilimanjaro.. cool leh.. i heard it's damn sui up there -

seems like a day trip cos you got loadsa facilities to climb, eh ?
when it comes to climb here you gotta be prepare for everything. usually the small mountains ard 3 days. middle ard. 5 days. and big ones (like mt. jaya wijaya at irian, has snow on top of it) will take weeks. and not to mention you gotta have legal docs and escort fr indonesian army (there are still rebelions who live in the mountain, so you might get kidnapped).
not to mentions sumatera mountains still have tigers...
if you go to sumatera, can go to danau gunung tujuh (seven lake's mt.). it's a lake surrounded by seven mountains. gosh.. it's beautiful. or to mt. argopuro (at east java), the most lovely mountain i've ever climb. there are edelweiss savana, beautiful lake, and a pricess (trengganis) cemetary on top of it. you'll feel as if you're nothing compares to all of this God creation. amazing..
hey.. gunung tahan seems so interesting. i'd love to go there if possible. would you be my guide then ?
we can swap photos if i visit yr country, k ? God creation... all beautiful and you'll feel grateful that you've seen them..
btw.. it's nice to know that you have the same interest with me.. -
morning everyone!!!!!

danau gunung tujuh sounds like heaven... i've been looking for places to climb other than those in malaysia.. so now my turn to ask.. would u be my guide? i've heard of rebels still in the forest and such.. that's why dare not venture there, plus the tigers.. how did u manage?
oh, i'm also delighted to find someone with a common interest wish we'd met earlier.. at least back then i was fitter and more willing to climb -
good noon dotsg

yeah.. very interested. but i think if we really (i hope it will) go someday, we must have a few weeks excersice so we'll be fit during our journey. if not, i'd be faint liao.. i know how tired and exhausted to climb a mt. and you really must have good companion (i mean a trusted friends) when go climbing. 'cos ppl tend to show their true habit (sometimes it's not a good habit ) in such situation. yeah.. can go with some friends, must be really nice. i can't wait to see you liao..
when you go to indo, i'll take you try paragliding and rafting (if the weather is ok). climbing will need loadsa praparation here. but hey.. i can ask my friend to accompany us to mt. in west java (not too tall and still very nice), only takes 3 days.
fortunatelly.. i haven't (and hope i won't) meet any tigers. we only saw their scars on some trees.
at least we know each other now. i hope we really able to meet someday (soon).
have you eat yr lunch ? i just had. a plate of fried kway teow - i guess the spelling is wrong... -
aww.. flattered u want to see meOriginally posted by Maya061:

paragliding!!!!!!! i've been dreaming to do that.. how much does it costs? a climbing indeed can see everybody's true colour... the trip we went tahan.. we went with a few of my juniors... wah when they are tired, they really cannot think properly.. then they start to turn lazy.. end up we had to push them on and take care of them..
you spelt your lunch properly.. i'm still doing some stuff.. so gotta finish up before i go -

i have some friends who are the instructors of paragliding. and i also already can jump solo but i think i must re-take the course now, since year 2000 was my last jump. i's not expensive to do tandem here. but if you wanna jump solo, must take the course. i think it's abt S$ 300. i'll take you try if you're here, k ? it's fun up there and things are small small down there. can see tea fields all ard. it.
when tired.. i could be lazy too lor.. and zhen de ma fan.. i even had a fight with my friend (a guy) up there, wah.. really bad leh.
but some guys were sooo nice, very patient and funny.
better take yr lunch now..
i gotta back to work.. *sigh* -
