Jungle Trekking at Pos Slim (Thursday 18 May 2000)
Ng Chang Chai led a group of 46 participants (including 10 non-members,
most of them were from the Pharmaceutical Society) on a trekking trip up
the Cabang trail at Pos Slim on this sunny Wesak Day. The response for
the trip had been most encouraging, just like the previous trip along the
same trail. The participants had a good sweat-out trekking at altitudes
ranging from about 300m to 700m high. Except for an initial stretch of
steep incline the trail was quite undulating and shady. Trekking
under the canopy with a mountain air ambience was indeed quite pleasant!
Besides having a good time appreciating nature at the waterfall site, this
trip also exposed some first timers to the life of orang asli at the rustic
Pos Slim orang asli settlement, located at the beginning of the trail.
