Peak and wall we have climb during this trip :- South Peak, Alexandra Peak, Ugly sister, wall near Sayat Sayat hut and Wall at St John peak, the wall we climb using traditional climbing technique. This trip we spend 3 days at Sayat Sayat Hut and a day at Ghuka hut, first two day the weather is very good and the scenery is excellent, but the day following is very cool and windy.Temperature during day time is around 13 celsius but at night the temperature can drop to 7 celsius so warm clothes need to well preapre. Most of the rock climbing route here are natural protection no anchor so climber have to use traditional way to climb and set up their own anchor.Type of rock here is Granite and because no many climber most of the route have lose rock. This trip have 7 participants for the trip it include organiser, some of the participant attack by AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness), the symptom is cannot eat, feel tire, vomit and cannot sleep well this all deal to thin air and high altitude. @ Copyright by MMG (Malaysia Mountain Goal Adventure Consultant) |
