A total of 12 members came along for this trek , Dr. Chan and Lau from
Taiping, Dr. Kiew from Sitiawan, Yip and 2 others, Mabel, Swee Cheng, Kok
Choo, Ai Lin, Moon and Ng Chang Chai.
We took a leisurely walk up the mountain
and managed to reach the first camp site by 5.00 pm.There was insufficient
space for everybody so five of us carried on until the peak. It rained
after five and we were caught in the rain. Dr. Kiew can vouch that it was
very cold up there. He shivered so much that he could hardly stick the
tent pegs into the ground. Fortunately the rain stopped after 7.30 although
the view from the top was obscured by mist.
After spending some time the next morning
enjoying the mountain scenery, which was still obscured now and then by
clouds we trekked down and reached our cars by about 4.00 pm.
