Hi
Got back from Fraser's Hills yesterday leading a group to hike Pines Trees Hills therefore miss the energizer run. Weather was cooling as compare in KL, misty during the climb. Took 7 hrs return as most of them are 1st timers
This is for the preparation of the Mt Kk Climb in April and May.
So this sat. Kem Pacat, Gng Nuang, will be meeting Yen Erl & gang at Tesco Ampang at 7am before heading to Gng Nuang. This is 2 nd last training for the April Mt KK climbers , its a mental test for them to walk up to kem pacat and back totaling 7hrs.
On April 11, will be going to Gng Datuk, however it wil be back to back for me as on Sat April 10, its the gng datuk challenge.
