    Sabi kasi ng friend ko na mas maganda daw dumaan ng Marcos hiway right now because of the present weather conditions. Delikado daw kasi sa Kennon Rd dahil sa possibility of a landslide. Saan nga ba talaga ako dapat dumaan?

    I always take MARCOS HIWAY going to Baguio. It is safer and much less prone to landslides. Kennon Road offers better views but it's landslide prone especially during the rain season.

    Yep, take Marcos Highway. Be on the lookout also for ninja potholes, especially when taking curbs on the Marcos highway access road. Expect thick fog along Marcos highway also if the weather doesnt improve.

    take marcos highway, though mas mabilis sa kennon road, but safety is a must and marcos highway is the safer route.

    kakagaling lang namin last weekend sa baguio and sa kennon ako dumaan papunta at pabalik. open siya for light vehicles so walang mga dump trucks. para sa akin pag bukas ang kennon at may dala auto mas ok dumaan dito at mas mabilis pa. meron konti detour sa bandang camp 5 or 6 ata since ginagawa yung bridge.

    Besides doon sa 2 bridges na ginagawa sa Kennon Road, meron din portions na 1 lane lang kasi undergoing ang concreting. Pag walang ulan okay dumaan sa Kennon kasi mas malapit. Once na umulan ng malakas mas safe dumaan sa Marcos Hiway para makaiwas sa mga falling rocks and debris that usually roll down along the roadside. Also easier to overtake slow moving vehicles sa Marcos Hiway.
