Gunung Ansi - Ulu Bendul Oct 14th 2007
Gng Ansi is situated at Ulu Bendul and its abt 20 mins drive from Seremban and its on the way to Kuala Pilah.. one can't miss the rest area as there's a huge signage and the only r n r along the the route to KP from S,ban.
Total 46 climbers have decided to join for the climb... and 80% are first timer to Ulu Bendul, the challenges they are facing will be interesting...
Met all the climbers at the senawang toll at 8.10am.. hmm i was late for 10mins as email infiorming them 8am..as i did the head count and brief them total 9 cars will be heading to Ulu Bendul for the Gng Ansi climb...
Reached at Ulu Bendul 8.45am... met Kathy and hubby, Kelvin boy....by then everone were busy preparing and getting ready for the climb. at 8.55am kc took a group pix and i brief them the do's and don't's on the hiking...
Started the climb at 9am.. as usual Kenny and Debbie brought happy(dog) along for the climb... so he lead the way but debbie have to be close with him all the time. I lead the group to the 1st check point and do the head count to ensure that all of them are on the right trail.
by then i will be the reccee of the group 'cos the trail as the 2nd part of the climb can be misleading esp for new comers...
As it been raining for the last few days, its was cooling and refreshing to hear the sound of the water gushing down from the river as 2km of the trail will be along the the river before reaching the loggers trail.
At the logger trails i have to wait for the climbers to show them the right trail to the peak 'cos quite number of climbers have lost their way....
The 2nd part of the trail is challenging in view of the 'ladders to nowhere as its all the way upward and its seem never end..
Once i have brief Kathy, KC and Pansy abt the route, as they were the last in the group, i have to move on fast to ensure that all are ok...
abt 15mins to the peak Ann fell down as the rope she hold snap and her head knocked on the ground and had a deep gashed.. quickly Janet apply presure on her head to stop bleeding and i bandage her head. Told the climbers to go ahead to the peak while i accompany Ann down as the peak is just nearby.... Yen Erl and Gang decided not to continue as they wanted to send Ann to the hospital....
As we were going down the 1st batch were on the way down as they ahev reach the peak earlier its Lee and gang 'cos they are all training for the awana trail blazers which will be on Nov 11 at Awana genting.
It was raining as we headed back to the car park and informed yen erl to take ann to the hospital while i wait for the rest of the climbers to arrive back. The last climber arrived at 4.45pm and i glad that all was safe.
Yen erl informed that Ann is ok and got 5 stiches and i met them for dinner in seremban..
Lesson learnt .. be cautious when u hold the ropes while climbing ... do not put fully your weight on it
It been an experience for me and will pass on the knowledge to the climbers...
Till then the next climb P3 signing off...
