The Guide, our guide is Mang Bino the No.1 guide for Kalisungan, didn't show up at jump-off because of communication problems, we've meet him about 15 minutes after we've started to ascent.

***kung maulan i-expect na nating maging maputik ang trail, dagdagan pa na farm ito na dinadaanan ng mga kabayo, hindi maiiwasang malubog ang mga mamahalin niyong sapatos sa putik.
***malamok, kung mag shoshort magdala ng mosquito repellent, mas maganda yung idinidikit lang na may malakas na amoy, meron akong nabili nun sa National Bookstore di kasi maganda yung Off MosquiRep
***ang assault pa summit matalahib at matarik, pag inabutan ng tirik na araw dito kayo malulusaw na parang kandila, Water Water Water... kung pababa magandang magsuot ng Gloves pang hawak sa mga talahib pababa dahil talagang matarik...
***maraming Prutas, may saging, saging, at saging :) meron din namang lanzones at rambutan.
***puro pa akyat, minsan ka lang bibiyayaan ng patag, lasapin mo na.
***Payong o Raincoat lalo nat tag ulan. (prefer ko yung payong, mainit kasi yung raincoat)
***nakakaligaw na mga sang sangang trail, wag mo na ipilit na hindi ka mag ga guide, nakakaligaw talaga kasi nga farm sya.
***madali sya kung medyo maulan, ewan ko lang kung tirik ang araw...
***wala na yung White Cross sa Summit
***pag nakita niyo na yung talahiban part 15-20 minutes nasa summit na kayo, at yung talahiban na yun, yun ang pinaka challenge ng kalisungan
***wag balasubasin/balahurain yung Ligo-an sa baba, yung napakagandang bahay sa kung saan kayo mag wawash up.
***wag niyo nang baratin yung Guide na si Mang Bino, Worth it yung ibibigay niyo :)
