We plan to start out early 7 sth in the morning but plus minus waiting all packed up and breakfast ended 9am. It was already damn shiny.
Everyone waiting to get the IDs from our guide. Mine was a nice number. U can call me Bond.
After getting all our IDs permit done. The driver took us to the starting 2km away from our lodge.
Our guide gave us a quick brief before starting the long hiking to the summit. I was quite regret not listening him that we should buy some food b4 reaching Laban Rata, our mid journey rest place. The food was dam ex there.
The hilarious Kinabalu hikers.
It was cold at first but after a few walk i will ended up stripping myself.
Sweating up like hell already on the second pitstop.
Squirrels everywhere on the second and third pit stop.
The path getting harder and harder… luckily it didnt rain on that day. I heard it always rain most of the time.
Sean and his magnificient view at KM 4.0. We just realize we stepping higher than the clouds already by then.
U might see us smiling but this rocky road take 1.5 km all the way from km4 to 5.5km before we reach Laban Rata our rest point.
The view at Laban Rata. Finally after 5 hours of hiking, we reach there. The view was too beautiful to describe.
That particular moment.. its feel like " macam Tuhan ". Just like when Jesus Christ reach tranqulity.
Tired creatures trying to rest and wait for the slows one to reach before getting meal and to our rest container.
Another nice view from the motel..
Our rest place for the night before starting climbing at 2am. Believe me, this cotainer just few steps from the mountain reef between life and death.
View of our containers from the motel just now. Just a 15 mins climb could make a lot of difference. Looks scary though.
8pm.. cold and dark like hell outside. Should be around 11degrees..my first time wear 4 massive clothes to sleep.
Good nite.
