We departed from PJ at 1am, and reached Lata Belatan at about 7:30am. Most of us did not get enough sleep.
Crossed one river and two streams. No shoes are removed, but balancing is needed to cross the third stream. (Thanks angel, for lending me your poles. Without ‘em, I’ll have to hike up the mountain with wet feet.)
The peak is surrounded by bonsai trees. On a clear day, you can see Perhentian Island. I made a half ass attempt to locate the elusive lookout point, but to no avail. Maybe I was just too tired. 😖
Really love the vibe... hikers helping hikers, the encouragements, new friendships and alone time with nature.
Some hikers ran out of water. Some did not peak (cut off time is 1pm). Some experienced muscle cramps (me included). And some were stung by wasps.
The KLHG organizers did a great job to make this possible. It’d be a nightmare to handle a group of 56 people with different personalities, different age groups and different expectations. But everything went well, and the trip was awesome!
