Unfortunately umatras ung kaibigan ko dahil may importanteng lakad so, I push through pero hindi ko pa ina-accept ung invitation. 2 weeks before the climb, nagkaroon na ng FINAL LIST sa mga sasama, so umaasa ako na makakahabol ako sa listahan pero huli na. So, hindi ako nakasama. Ang susunod na akyat nung araw na un ay November 29 - 30 sa Mt. Maculot. Sumama na lang ako sa Mt. Maculot. Then sumama ako sa Mt. Pulag last January 4-6 - The Mt. Maculot Journey - - Characteristics ng Tarak Ridge It consist of River crossing sa Papaya River and an assault you will never forget.
