6.36am, we arrived at 19km, 3km more to go …….
.

We are facing another uphill task but after went through our day 1, I believe we already get use to it, right friends ?
.

After 15 min walk from Camp 4, we reached the only stainless steel ladder.
.

Guys, another climbing work ……
.

Yes, this is the good spot to take a picture. Cheers …..
.

Wow …. how many slope like this we have to go through ?
Luckily we do not need to carry a heavy back pack. ![]()
.

Another young Monkey Cup (Nepenthes).
.

Can you please wait for me, tough guy ? ![]()
.

When the going gets tough, the tough gets going ……..
.

This Orchid is really beautiful.
.

There is always a light at the end of the dark side.
.

Is this the type of Nepenthes Adnata ?
.

Just want to show you how big is this Nepenthes Lowii. ![]()
.

This is the point where if you miss your foot, you will end up ….. maybe more than 50 feet below ? So watch out when you reach here.
.

After 1.5 hours walked, we saw this flower.
.

Another attractive plant caught my attention.
.

8.22am, reaching another slope.
.

5 minutes later, another one……..
.

2 minutes later, we are into a dark area …..
.

8.33am, this is a very very, real real slope to climb.
.

4 minutes later, another hurdle to go …….
.

This is just a temporary reward for climbing 2 hour 11 minutes.
.

Guys, take a rest. we are almost there …..
.

Another Nepenthes Lowii.
.

Yes, we finally make it to the top at 8.50am, 2 hours 20 minutes !
.

This is the plaque to remember Thomas Damit Ngang, a man who fought long and hard for the future of the Berawan People !
.

Another group photo with our “Python Snake” guide.
Oh yes…. remember I wrote that in our first day mission, a person who started to talk nonsense and wanted to give up for the 2nd day’s trail.
Let the secret be revealed now ……. This guy is squatting down in the middle of this picture .
.

Introducing the record breaker …… The Lady in Yellow. She reached the summit in less than 1 hour. According to our guide, no one had ever achieved that. So….. can she be in the Guiness World Record ? ![]()
.

The Marathon Men have made it to the Summit also.
.

This is one of the usage of a Monkey Cup.

.

A lantern flower ?
.

Descending is more difficult. You have to slow and steady.
.

I started to miss the Summit …..
.

One leg falls cause you regret for whole life ……..

.

Another lucky day to be able to see this baby snake.
.

4.58pm, we were already back to Camp 3.
.
.
Next –> Time to say Sayonara …..
