KK Trip 30/9 ~ 5/10 - Part 2

Right, finally got sometime to continue. From Laba Rata, the resting point for all. The climb on the next morning 2:00am was tough. We have little sleep as the lodge does not have heater. The room is damp and cold. It does not help us either. We try to wrap ourselves with as many blankets and put on as many clothing as possible to keep ourselves warm...

2:ooam. Judgement time. Our mountain guide turn up and give us the good news. The weather is good to climb. Hurrah!!! Finally, the adventourous journey has started. There is no moon in sight, the day is cold as wind breezed past us from time to time. Even if you got a touch light, there is little visibility for sight more than 100 meter due to the mist. As I am the slowest among the group, our mountain guide stay close to me and guide me the whole way through.

Until we reach Sayak-sayak, I asked the park ranger there: "Will I see sun rise? Will I see KK town after sun rise?" The answer is "NO". The weather is only good for climb but does not guarantee I will see what I want to see". So, I decided to stay and let the guide to continue to hunt for my friends whom have travel far. Sometimes, I do think I am lucky as I did not get soak as it rains after I stayed in Sayak-sayak hut. It rains after a few minutes... Freezing.

Anyway, we started decend from the top to KK Park then head on to our next destination. Hot Poring. A place with warm sulphur bath to relax our muscle and reduce the soreness we have had through out the climb.

Here is sneak preview.
