Never Forget 2015 Travels

2015 has ended at marami nanamang nangyari sa taong ito. From the hardest mountain ever climb to return climb to another Byaheng Norte. Also a year of "Mercy and Compassion" because of the Papal Visit

Let's have a Throwback for NorTrav's Travels of 2015.


Mt. Makiling Traverse Part 2 - March 15

The ultimate return  climb but with a little bit change in the trail making it more challenging to climb than the first one in 2014.

Mt. Tapulao (The Revenge Climb) - April 8 - 12

I failed last 2012, 3 years later, we've return and we conquered and this is my first toughest climb with a difficulty 6/9 (now 5/9 according to Pinoy Mountaineer).

Magalawa Island - April 11-12

After the toughest climb, its time to relax and swim in Magalawa Island. A 5 minutes from mainland Zambales is the Magalawa Island.

Manabu Peak - August 23, 2015

This mountain is somehow tough, BUT it gets tougher when it rains. This dayhike is somehow my memorable climb because we climb even the rain pours heavy.

"This is North Luzon Part 2" - December 28 - January 5

NorTrav is BACK to the North to complete the "This is North Luzon" list. Some are new including the Burgos Windmill or the extension of the Bangui windmills. Yes, it was expanded, adding MORE windmills outside Bangui. Unlike Bangui Windmills, Burgos Windmills is located near the National Highway.

Some in the checklist includes the Laoag Belltower and The Old and New Quirino Bridge in Bantay, Ilocos Sur.

Another year has ended. Expect a lot more adventures this year. Expect more climbs, foodtrips and travels both North Luzon and South Luzon, as well as Visayas, Mindanao and a most awaited international travel.

Like I said Last year "By Land, By Air and By Sea Tuloy pa rin ang byahe ng NorTrav."
