Ascending and descending the steep slopes of MK must have been more gruelling especially when it rained. Your experience and being the oldest in the pack, must have been the driving force to the young ones, to overcome the fear factor.<br />Well done!nahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826590137201441127.post-11352872146877007622010-06-29T10:17:54.423+08:002010-06-29T10:17:54.423+08:00Well done, Chap!

One of my colleagues from NPB did it during the weekend. But he overlooked one vital item at that time of the year - around Nov/Dec; sun glasses. When he came for classes on Monday morning, he was practically half-blinded ...... from the sun's reflection off the snow on top of Mt Fuji.Lam Chun Seehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01762020157703342970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826590137201441127.post-76459996133576222802010-06-28T18:21:12.141+08:002010-06-28T18:21:12.141+08:00victor, on the way to the peak, i met a mother and...victor, on the way to the peak, i met a mother and daughter team. i think the mother must be older than i. last march, my friend's group had a 77-yr old man who also reached the peak. so, seniors can.yghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07054865524193859788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826590137201441127.post-63687744247812449692010-06-28T18:17:06.715+08:002010-06-28T18:17:06.715+08:00chun see, i am sure you also can make it to the to...chun see, i am sure you also can make it to the top.yghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07054865524193859788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826590137201441127.post-25926853965626718642010-06-28T13:49:01.854+08:002010-06-28T13:49:01.854+08:00icemoon, i didn't have much problem with the r...icemoon, i didn't have much problem with the ropes.yghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07054865524193859788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826590137201441127.post-70323745067263887522010-06-28T13:47:52.468+08:002010-06-28T13:47:52.468+08:00john, it was quite a challenge and much more gruel...john, it was quite a challenge and much more gruelling than bt timah. for me, once is enough.yghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07054865524193859788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826590137201441127.post-62110091805594358662010-06-28T01:37:30.588+08:002010-06-28T01:37:30.588+08:00YG,congratulations on the accomplishment!

I am sure that your regular forays at Bukit Timah have strengthened you for this though and helped get you into condition. When you said you were going I almost volunteered to come with you but then I reminded myself what a hard trek it is and restrained myself. A great achievement and once again, well done.JollyGreenPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05829814386239434664noreply@blogger.com
