Day 2: Officially our first day hiking! Unexpectedly long due to the cancelled flights. But we made it through anyway! We were supper happy and hopeful as we are finally on our long awaited journey to ISLAND PEAK! But that was still miles away. We enjoyed all the little things like the food, the air and the scenery. Before this, we had only seen these landscapes from pictures and videos. Seeing it in front of ourselves was surreal, it was so beautiful yet so unassuming. The day was longer than we expected and we hiked 1h into the dark before we finally reached Phakding, from Kharikhola.

This unplanned journey was also very insightful as we saw the stark contrast before and after we joined the main EBC route. Paths and buildings were a lot more developed once our paths converged. Cafes and bars started to emerge where before there were only small lodges.

Day 1: The day none of us expected coming. A 22hr Jeep ride from Kathmandu to Kharikhola. We had to take the jeep route due to bad weather delaying all flights for the past 4 days. Was the longest and most intense ride I've been on. Never even knew cars could drive on such roads. Our trip had a bumpy start, but we made it to the starting point in the end!

Havent had an update here for ages. Went to Gunung datuk for 2 weekends in a row and it was great! The forest air and spring waters revitalised my tired body. Always a great time hiking!

I'm once again reminded of just how beautiful and powerful mother nature is.

Last week, we did a 3D2N expedition around Tioman island for a total of ~65km. It was such an experience. Fighting against and surfing on the waves at Juara, night kayaking and seeing bioluminescent as we paddle and also seeing a perfect double rainbow! I picked up kayaking as a means to enjoy and explore more of what nature had to offer and its finally starting to pay off 😋 Can't wait for more adventures ahead!

Also super grateful to all the friends that I've met on the trip that shared the same passion for the outdoors as me. Always a great time connecting through adventures 😁

Gunung Ledang, AKA Mount Ophir! 1276M.

Had a great trek last Sunday hiking for 9hrs! Ophir was a really fun to hike mountain, not too easy like Datuk, but not hard as well. Perfect for a day hike and training! Was abit crazy to do this on a sunday and cross the customs at 12am and go to work the next day, lol. Truely Living like we're still students. Where to next? 🤔

Caught this incredible sunset shot while out kayaking around Koh phi phi. The red and blue makes it look like some fantasy shot! 🌅

Took with my gopro 9, which is kinda grainy in low light.

Reminds me of Aokiji vs Akainu, iykyk

2022 May - Gunung Korbu 2183M & Gunung Gayong 2173M

I've heard of these 2 mountains years ago, but didn't think it was hard or anything, given that it was just 3D2N hike. But boy was I wrong. we were way under prepared for such an endeavour, but in the end we conquered it nonetheless!

Training hike around Mcritchie and Bukit Timah Hill.

Today we hiked around 15km in 4hrs carrying trek bags and all! Roughly the same time we would have to hike on day 1 and 3 of KorGa trek. Good training for our trip 3 weeks later. The rain really poured down on us towards the end and we all ended up drenched! Hahaha, should have been more prepared and brought our ponchos out with us. Also, I found out that my merrel shoe is starting to give way, might need to retire it after 1 last trip at KorGa.

GUNUNG KORGA HERE WE COME!

This was taken during my first trekking trip back in 2017, had a strenuous 3 day hike at Gunung Rajah. But since then I've conquered 15 other mountains.

Can't wait to be back in the wilderness at the end of the month. Great way to warm up this cold body for greater things to come! WATCH OUT MOUNTAINS!

Had my first comp climbing experience at @smugravical. Signed up for this late last year and didn't expect much. After transend where I didn't even send 1 route, I was pretty certain that it was gonna be the same here, so I decided to just take it easy and treat it like a fun climb. Although I didn't make it to the semis, I'm glad I joined the comp. I felt that the routes were still very tough for the qualifying round, but I'm super glad that I managed to send one of them! I wasn't expecting much at first, but after sending that one black route, I suddenly felt like semis was within reach had I just sent 1 more! But my excitement got the better of me. I kept trying for routes that I didn't have much luck with and were not my style, and in the end, I couldn't even zone those. After climbing for 2 years, it was really interesting to see how I compared to others in Singapore. it was a super interesting experience and I definitely learnt a lot about comp climbing in Singapore, and how to pace myself during competitions. would definitely go again for next year's Gravical!

LONGEST PADDLE YET!
32km done from pasir ris to sembawang and back.

Had a good time over the weekend with a crazy bunch! Paddled through the rain, which made the trip much more bearable as there was no sun. We had the current on our side for 90% of the time which helped ALOT. Even with the current, we took about 7 hours to complete including lunch. Cant imagine if we had to go against current 😬. Overall a super fun challenge, looking forward to the next expedition!
