Last Monday I went on what is my worse climbing trip to date. It was Gunung Nuang and it was said to be quite straight forward (those who have never heard of Gunung Nuang can go here). But what was supposed be a 10 hour climb, ended up being an 18 hour and 40 minute climb. We started climbing at 6.30am on Monday and came back down at about 2am Tuesday. The weather was wet and that made the terrain ruthless. We ended up hiking down in the dark for quite a big chunk of the time and that made finding the path even more difficult.
I thank God for the safety of all us who climbed that day everytime I think of the climb. My advice, Nuang's not for the faint-hearted and wobbly-legged, especially if it rains. ;)

Hey friend from superly bad quality pic like that can tell one?
if i din know better id have said it was an eel.
Post MORE and BETTER/CLEARER pics laaa... since its wif ur fren all... and if possible include an object in the pic for size reference. eg. a shoe.
Haiyo fren understanding laa sikit... ppl curious ni... ;P
an ell on sand? jaspreet, if you're gonna say that, please don't tell people i taught you bio ok! banyak minta lah budak nie. :p
Of course i will tell everyone! Sir you HAVE taught me well! Let me explain...
Forests have rivers. Moreover you were trekking up a mountain; source of all rivers are on high ground.
Rivers = somewhat sandy banks AND the presence of freshwater aquatic life (ells for example)
also...
Knowing that:
a) You're a bio lecturer and,
b) you do have a somewhat evil/crue disposition
It could be that you might have taken the ell out of the water and onto the bank to study it out of curiosity and then taken a picture.
So sir you have taught me well. Don't doubt yourself. You're a very capable bio lecturer. >;)
what a reassurance! and being a biologist, i would never take the eel out like that to study it lah...no matter how evil my disposition is. :p
Same way you didn't condone taking that snake out of its natural habitat? /;)
yeap...in exactly the same way. ;p
