Nuang

It has been years since the last climb. Can't wait to go up Mt Nuang again. This would be the 5th time. Originally it was supposed to be tomorrow, but since we are having a CNY get together, we decided to postpone it to Monday morning. Hope we still have the energy to climb (since I know it is going to be a late night thing!). It is going to be 4898ft to the top, but we are going half way on the first day (3-4 hours walk), and to the top the next morning (3-4 hours walk). So it should be fine.

Lots of memories up there. Lots of things happened. but I don't want to get nostalgic.

Since this is quite an impromptu thing, it is still open if anybody wants to join in. Come lah, but we only have 1 tent so far, so you might need to find your own tent. I'll be sleeping outside on my trusty hammock.

Like old times, Outrecs style.

Can't wait.

Mount nuang in Wikipedia:

Mount Nuang (Malay: Gunung Nuang) is located in Malaysia with the height of 1,493 metres (4,898 ft). Its peak marks the meeting point of three Malaysian states; Negeri Sembilan, Pahang dan Selangor. The mountain itself is the highest point in Selangor and part of the Titiwangsa Mountains.

There are three hiking routes to the peak and all of them were built by Malaysian Department of Wildlife and National Parks. Two of them start in Selangor; one at Kuala Pangsoon in Hulu Langat and another at Kampung Kemensah in Gombak. The third path originates from Bukit Tinggi in Bentong, Pahang. Genting Highlands is visible at night from the peak.
