^ salamat sis. btw, na-try mo na mag-join sa kanila and which trip? kamusta naman?

[shegothim]

sa pulag trip sis. ok naman si yunan masarap syang magluto at mabait. iyon nga lang kulang sya sa gamit like tent atsaka wala syang dalang utensils pero sinabihan naman nya kami beforehand kung ano ano ang dapat dalhin at iprepare. kaya oks sya sa akin.

[OD]

^ ah ok, kaya pala ang laki din ng price difference. Pero nung trip nyo, nag-hire pa kayo ng porter? Coz I understand you had to lug around lots, and I mean lots. Thanks ha, youve been really helpful. And hanep sa blog ha, sarap basahin from cover to cover

[shegothim]

thanks sis.

yes sis naghire kami ng porter. bale nakihati na lang ako sa kasama ko tapos pinabuhat namin sa isang porter ang 2 bag namin. 500 ang bayad sa porter kahit mga 2-3 bags ok nang pabuhat. may nakita kami mahigit 4 ang buhat buhat na bag.

^salamat, hopefully I could carry out a climb in the coming months. I prefer to take on Akiki-Ambangeg trail but it requires a certain level of climbing expertise/experience. Anyone here up for the same challenge?

Mt Pulag in serious jeopardy

what do you girls suggest, in our own little way and thru concerted efforts, we do in preventing the desecration of a mountain we hope to still marvel and revel on its remarkable charm till our last breath, and our offsprings' breath and their successors and so on.. ?

sis OD, na try ko na po ang Akiki-Ambangeg trail last  year. ang hirap pero sulit. pero pwede ka naman po mag porter. kung beginner ka palang po, mag ambangeg ka na lang papunta at pabalik. easy easy lang kase ang trail na ito.

sis fizzifinfun, ok lang po ang trip mong attire. actually, madalas, ganayan suot ko pag may akyat ako...

sana makabalik kame ni hubby dito. wala nga lang time..

[fizzifinfun]

 ^^ sis kahit sa pulag naka leggings ka?
       san ka bumili ng leggins mo? thansk po..

^^ Hello godessjem Kelan kayo nag-Pulag via Akiki-Ambangeg trail? if I may kwento a little, nag-climb ako recently at Mariveles. It was a major climb originally described as having a difficulty level of 5/9. But after the rigorous trek where we tackled a different and unconventional trail, even the trail leader (veteran mountaineer) ascribed it with a difficulty level of 7. Jusko! hindi ko nga ma-imagine na nakabalik ako ng maynila ng buong-buo. And I consider that experience as my rite of passage to more serious and harder climbs, my purpose was to test my level of endurance and stamina. Mainam din siguro yun baon ko na trail food na polvoron hehe!

Seriously though, I was told the Akiki trail is overwhelmingly steep. How did you prepare for the hike and ilang days kayo? Ive plans of trekking rthis specific trail soon so firsthand info/experience esply from a female hiker will be very valuable. Thanks


@fizzifinfun: in addition to the aforementioned recommendation, I suggest you opt for leggings that extends up to the ankle and choose a fabric that's less h20/moisture absorbent. The length shld provide ample protection so you can minimize incidence of nicks and cuts. saan hike nyo?

[fizzifinfun]

 ^^ sis where can i buy leggings like ng sinasabi mo?

    sa pulag sis this coming oct 29... and hindi ko alam what to wear..
    kung ok lang yung leggings and short..

[fizzifinfun]

 mga sis san nakakabili ng thermal blanket? thanks,,
