Gunung Datuk
Gaming has been low for a while since Raya, but I aim to rectify that in the upcoming Christmas and New Year holidays, starting with The Intergalactic Space Mega Battle TM (Twilight Imperium III) this saturday, most likely at the Outpost @the Curve.
In the mean time, enjoy the following outdoor adventuring report!
Early morning: Wake up early to have Bah-kut-teh at the Emporium (which serves midnight-dawn BKT)
Mid morning: Speeding our way to destination Gunung Datuk, located between Rembau and Tampin. Reportedly the training ground for KK wannabe climbers. Passed by two separate accidents, an overturned truck and an overturned car. Nearly become an accident myself, damn stupid F1 driver wannabes.
Late morning: Reached Gunung Datuk after a slight detour (landslide on the road) Hiking up after registering with the rangers. We are late according to our schedule.
Early noon: A fellow climber becomes dizzy, fainted and vomited after 45 mins climbing. This mountain is no joke. The climber and a volunteer have to beat a hasty retreat. The rest soldier on. Large tree roots and vertical steps make the going interesting:
Noon: We reached the top! Spectacular view. You gotta see it for yourself… that is if you can make it! Can you make it? These guys can:
Another shot, this time all girls, on a different angle:
If they can make it, you can too! Enquire for details how to challenge yourself to a quarter of KK’s difficulty.
Just for everybody’s info, a soft toy pig named Bubbles made it to the top of KK and I have a picture to prove it. So challenge yourself, start climbing and don’t lose to the pig, oink, oink!
