[size=18]Update:[/size]

For those who are interested to come with us on Hi-Peak, kindly let us know through this topic.

Hi-Peak is the second highest mountain of Luzon Island with an elevation of approximately 6,000 feet, it is accessible from Palauig, an hour north of Olongapo City. Distance from Manila to Hi-Peak is 260Kms. The last 25 kms leading to the Peak is an abandoned mining trail within a mining concession owned by C-Square Mining Company. Mr. Phil Geeslin is our gate pass there, so we will have to collaborate with him and his group to be able to meet on the rendezvous point. Last Feb.8-9 the LRCP group went ahead and some are willing to go back there with the trail pack. We are encouraged to bring all the necessary stuffs used for camping. An extra shovel, saw or jungle bolo would be needed if the trails need to be cleared up along the way. And before I forget, Phil wants "Buddy System" on the trails, if a vehicle bogs down (hopefully this won't happen), another vehicle will have to be on hand for service utility. This also provides less down time so that the rest of the group could continue going up to Hi-Peak.

[size=18]Itinerary:[/size]
Feb. 28 (Friday) = Leave Manila 2000hrs and meet with other tsikot.com members in Petron NLEX. As I know, of it is a 3-4 hour trip from Manila to Iba, Zambales (somebody correct me on this). Meet with Phil and his group at Palmera hotel where we would also be staying in for the night.
Mar. 1 (Saturday) = Depart from Palmera resort at 0900hrs (that's what Phil told me) to continue the travel to Hi-Peak. But he also pointed out that it is much better if we could leave earlier than expected.
Mar. 2 (Sunday) = Descent Hi-Peak at an undisclosed span within the day.

Ask ko lang kung may restroom? Tanong ni tess. I like to know kasi kung wala, I'll have to borrow the portables used by the El Shadais sa Luneta :mrgreen:

**Ungas** · February 17th, 2003 10:29 PM

Tinanong ko na kay Phil yan, tungkol sa mga morning rituals ng tao. He said that's also one reason to bring a good shovel to cover up something that aren't supposed to be left uncovered. :mrgreen:

It is beyond our control what the LRCP have decided last time. We could do nothing to prevent us from joining their trails.

Now is our time to turn the table around, they ARE joining our trails this time. :mrgreen:

Any questions re accomodation or the expedition, pls. post. Cheers! :D

I hope boss ted won't mind I quoted his post.

Tsikot peeps!!!
How many rooms do we intend to reserve?
We have yet to finalize the people who are interested to come.

**kimpOy** · February 19th, 2003 09:25 AM

kung gusto ninyo pumasyal sa amin sa pampanga
ok lang on the way naman!

kahit pauwi or papunta
pero mas maluwag yata sa pag pauwi

basta alam na ni sir ungas ang number ko!

**afrasay** · February 19th, 2003 06:59 PM

Kim::: Backback? :D

**Olive Drab** · February 19th, 2003 08:55 PM

mag-stop over na kayo sa Razon's halo-halo on your way back to Manila so we can have a mini EB.

**Ungas** · February 19th, 2003 09:01 PM

Sure! Pipilitin namin bumaba ng mas maaga kung may mahahatak kaming recovery vehicle. Baka kasi plan nila Phil mag stay up to 2pm bago bumaba.

O kaya mas maganda kung sunduin nyo kami dun sa Hi-Peak para makababa kami ng mas maaga. :P

**tebs** · February 20th, 2003 04:53 PM

ano na ba ang final plan?

**afrasay** · February 20th, 2003 08:08 PM

Checkin kami ni Tess mga 12nn ng Fri. Relax2 muna.
