Nice one shenggai. Oo invest on good shoes. Di naman kelangan sobrang mahal eh basta it can serve up to its purpose.

Hindi pa rin ako makapili ano gusto ko, bumili muna ko ng sandugo sandals. Hehe.

Antagal din bago nasundan ng 2nd climb. Aug 9 yung first, nov 26 yung sumunod sa batulao. Grabe, hindi ko akalaing hihingalin ako dun haha. Pero nagenjoy ako kahit hindi sanay katawan ko. Ilang araw din ako di makagalaw.

Akyat kami uli bukas, twin hike sipit ulang + Pamitinan ba yun. Goodluck sakin. Sana sunud sunod na to para masanay na katawan ko. Iba kasi feeling pag nasa taas.

Goodluck sa twin dayhike nyo haha. Mahaba habang lakaran yang sipit ulang. Most probably uunahin nyo sipit bago pamitinan. Oks na yung pamitinan, wag na yung binacayan haha

[shenggai]

^ di rin natuloy ang twin, kinulang sa oras. Pero naenjoy ko sipit ulang, rock climbing. Bawal madulas. Haha

[lblackcat]

Gaaaah! I miss hiking! Lalo na overnights! The mountains are calling but I can't answer. Nangangati na paa ko haha

[smile22]

me and my husband always talk about climbing.. gustung gusto namin but hindi namin alam san magssimula.. are there support groups / fb groups na pwedeng magjoin for newbies?

[lblackcat]

Start by going on day hike trips so that you can assess if it's really for you. Pero if you are to ask me, nothing beats going on an overnight on mountain campsites. Sobrang sarap ng feeling!

[smile22]

^hi sir thanks for your response. we'd love to. that's actually our new years resolution. anyhoo, ive searched FB and turns out there are a lot of groups that are doing organized camping/hiking/trekking. ive joined some of the groups to get tips... sooooo looking forward to my first climb.

[lblackcat]

[FayeP]

bro lblackcat,

bro un upcoming pulag sa Jan 30, how much un per person? saka pede ba beginner? kasi isa pa lang naakyat ko un Mt. Pinatubo at di ko na din sure kun considered ba siya heheh....pero gusto ko matry ulit...

[lblackcat]

2600 po. Sent you a PM to the events page for the full details. Pwede naman beginner, pero mind you. You would need lots of patience and somewhat endurance, damay mo na din immunity sa lamig kasi ang kalalabasan ng trip na yun is parang nagdayhike ka sa pulag. See the event page na lang for the full details and itinerary of the trip.

[smile22]
