Kenabaru, lar. You guys enjoy yourselves, ok? Bring along a full suit raincoat. It not only prevents you from getting wet but also provides a good insulation from the cold.

climb it back in 2003.. nice view... not so tough track.. just need stamina mar... :P

didnt exercise for quite sumtime then straight away climb... smokin summore... :(
but still manage to get to the top... took me 5 n half hours to get to the resort..

start to climb to summit arnd 3.30 am. raining n it was damn cold
reach summit around 8 am.. was lucky cos ngam2 rain stop n the sun shining.. few hundeds other went down early cos of the rain....

recommend for those who wish to go.. even if u didnt exercise for quite sumtime.. as long as ur healthy can go up i think.. :rolleyes:

headache,
it is never too old to do anything unless you behave like an old ayam. i got a friend, whose mother had climb the mt for 9 times, and was done after she hit 55years old. Old at age young at hearts. LOL

cheers..........

 

[cchoi]

no age limit and boundaries,

for all old ayams, young chicks and cikus, and all sexes too ha-ha-ha

cheers...... :P :D :lol: :)

I climbed twice before :)

The first part to laban rata is not that cold. Just wear shorts and t-shirts will do. Coz once you sweat you'll feel warm. Take it slowly. Enjoy the scenery and flora-fauna. Don't rush and compete with others how fast you can go. This stage shall take about 6 hours (average speed). Start climbing at 9am.

2nd stage from laban rata to peak takes 3 - 4 hours. You'll start at 2pm so that you can catch sun rise there :) Here its very cold. I remember I was wearing like 4 - 5 layers!!! You also need torch light for this climb. Fatigue might set in here coz of cold.

As for descending. You descend in 1 shot. Fastest I tried was in 2 hours :)

coming down in 2hrs was fast, you jump and hop all the way down or wat....

cheers.....

AE-86,
if ur asthma not vely serious, can go one. just make sure you seek doctor advise first lah, otherwise u cannot breath vely susah oh. but maybe the air is so fresh there, it may cure ur asthma.

[jiggly_head]

wah, if go up straight to the summit then smoke damn kau syiok lehh. :D

 

[cchoi]

jiggly,
u can, provided u can get ur lighter light up. gotta try many many times b4 u succeed. air is thin there tats why difficult to lite up.

 

[jiggly_head]

use bunsen burner lahh. hahahha or zippo. :)

then smoke while u are climbing the mountain, true test of lung power.

 

[cchoi]

jiggly,
respect a bit lah, dont smoke along the way, climbers will star at you w one kinda look. but u can smoke when at the summit, they are ppl who does it.
