a roller coaster ride...

a camping trip FOR REAL *updated*

4.5 hours of hike

freaking 15KG of weight in my rucksack
- 7 liter of water = 7KG
- 1 sleeping bag
- 1 set of dry clothes
- 1 jacket
- few packets of dried snacks
- 5 packet of PENANG HARMEE
- 1 personal 1st aid kit
- 3 big bin plastic bags (1 human can fit int)
= 1 with cutted holes for head & 2 arms (coz i do not have any wind-breaker & i have no budget to get 1 yet, so
this is the cheapest way, waterproof lagi)
- 1 gore-tex cap with neck protection (very good, as its cold weather up there-protect from rain & cold wind)

i think that's all..

but amazingly i managed to finished the DOWN-UP-DOWN-UP trek in 4.5 hours.... (1 way)
i could not believe i made in with 15kg loaded behind me...
another 4.5 hours DOWN-UP-DOWN-UP trek to get back to beginning of trail...

Gunung Brinchang getting to Gunung Irau
- trail was super muddy, nice place for commando course with the amount of mud...
i salah kaki into 1 of the pit & i masuk til almost knee.
- windy & breezy, very nice - i suka
- nice environment
- i trek almost alone on the way back.. tak payah takut u will sesat... coz i found my way out..
(the cepats: too fast, i tak boleh ikut & i was using too much brain cells to think which how to get downhill)
(the kuras: im not sure if im in the kuras this time coz amazingly i can actually hike faster than i expected i usually do, lagi with the weight i have in my bag)


final outcome:
- i gain lots of bruises on my lower legs, atleast 10 blue-black
- muds are still stuck in my toe & finger nails
- there are still muds on my lower leg skins... how can i remove them ar???
i've scrub them intensively but they are still on skin.... how??
= maybe i can try medi & pedicure or go Dr Fish ?? hmm.. i think they're gonna extra charge me..
- conquered ONE more MOUNTAIN... not that i've conquered many in my life...
= but i've tried Mount K & Mount Bromo - both super nice & super cold...

why i could possible do so??
- 3 hours of intensive training in 1Utama (running around, 50 sit-ups, 50 push-ups)
- walking/trekking for 35 minutes into Templers Park waterfall with 6liter of water in my rucksak
- short jogs around my condo (very short-too lazy & many mossy)
- my Deuter 50 + 10liter bag... super keng.. if without it, i would not have make it to the top with the weight i need to carry up...

that's all for now.. will post up some pics after i curi from FB... lol... :D
