Hi Peak trail CANCELLED! Challenge revoked

x-wind,

pwede sumama pag may 4Lo ang sasakyan mo.

another option: makisakay ka sa mga pupunta

eto ginagawa ko. at least kasama ka pa rin sa kasiyahan. and you see it first hand.

ungas,
yung step bars ko nga ang sumagip sa body ng sasakyan ko, kung hindi baka mas malaking damage pa.

pero depende rin sa klase ng step board. may mga mahihinang klase kasi. mabilis makupi.

I wud lyk to buy new tyres (at least dalawa, naka A/T naman un) f ever I go. Also to chek all my suspension.

it's heating up. esep-esep muna ako.

Di naman kailangan ng aircon sa pagakyat ng hi-peak, we usually drive up with open windows.

Law of Physics ang papasok, higher altitude less oxygen. Some fluids tends to overflow upthere. So DO NOT overfill your fluids. Basta umabot sa MAX level or a bit lower ok na. Kung 2 AT tires, lagay nyo sa rear para mag grip.

Mas maganda pa yung gusto sumama hitch na lang after Palmera Resort, si kimpOy umakyat ng naka 2L gear di pa rin kinaya. May mga parts na kailangan talaga ng 4WD.

Patrol at Land Cruiser pwedeng naka-stepboards. Mas mataas pa din ang stepboards nila kaysa sa frame ng sasakyan mismo.

ano yung mga kelangan na iprepare sa vehicle before climbing? Anoyung mga vital parts na ipapacheck dapat before climbing?

**OTEP** · September 21st, 2003 04:33 PM

Check all systems. Brakes, tires, suspension, engine, etc. Any part that has already gotten broken on your rig should be double checked. Check all fluid levels and all belts.

Check for low hanging accessories which may have to be removed.

Mr. Phil G. just called me up, he was up in the Cordilleras kaya pala walang reply last week.

Anyway, about Hi-Peak, he told me that he was thinking that monsoon rains may still be present upthere. And it's not nice to camp on wet soil. Though he was asking directions if anyone knew how to get to Mount Banoy in Lobo, Batangas. Trail is not that exciting as Hi-Peak, but the view is breath taking according to him.

He said, he's planning to climb Hi-Peak by mid November.

**crawdaddy** · September 23rd, 2003 01:40 AM

so I guess cancelled na ang High Peak this October...?

**kimpOy** · September 23rd, 2003 08:40 AM

moved one month lang, ok lang yun.

**tebs** · September 23rd, 2003 10:38 AM

ok na rin ang november.

isipin nyo na lang. originally nga, next year pa e. bonus nga lang to.

**Ungas** · September 23rd, 2003 12:59 PM

Mr. Phil G. emailed me, with his permission, I would like to quote him:

...Tell you what, if I can get someone to come down with me same day I will go for the day, up and then down to Iba. Just let me know...

We can still push thru if you guys really want it, we'll just have to find another vehicle to convoy with Mr. Phil G. going down on that same day.

**Ungas** · September 26th, 2003 04:42 PM

Update:

Just talked to Mr. Phil G. early this afternoon. Looks like plan for 3rd week of October will push thru if sky will be clear by then. Please keep your schedules open until the 4th weekend, if monsoon rains will hamper with our 3rd week sched.

Yehey!!!

**odell** · September 28th, 2003 03:01 PM

hehehehe

**Boy2** · September 28th, 2003 05:51 PM

odell, kaya yan... tutulungan ka naman nila dun, and walang iwanan

good luck!

**hanson** · September 29th, 2003 10:13 AM

i'd like to join but i won't be bringing a ride. i'd hitch with anyone of you guys then i'll shoot photos.

**Ungas** · September 29th, 2003 12:06 PM

Pwedeng hitch, David!

Sa dami ng sasama ang daming bakanteng upuan na sasakyan.

Mr. Phil G. and I spoke again, and we have agreed to postpone for October because of monsoon rains hampering the trail. Latest word from the engineer of C-Squared Mining that the trail is blocked by fallen trees, soil erosion and boulders. If we continue the October plans, it will be too treacherous for newbies who would want to join. Clearing the trail plans will commence early November, hopefully this will be easy enough for everyone to enjoy. :D
