"The group started out at around 5:30AM. The assault was a surprise to most of us since it was just our second climb (after Mt Binicayan). It was quite a sweltering day. Lots of rests and everyone encouraged each other to go on. " — sylespina • Apr 6, 2016
"This should be a solo climb, but because of the park's rule -no guide, no climb- i lose to have one solo day hike, though i managed to have a guide weeks earlier, i still ended up joining a group of season hikers... and i enjoyed it :)" — ar-o • Feb 22, 2015
