Based on the blog,
- this was her third times to climb Mount Kinabalu. (So she is experienced)
- the group followed Mesilau trail (which I had not tried before and therefore had not written before in this blog)
- she and her husband are Marathon runners, both are fit. In fact, the people in the Group (with kids) all seemed fit during the climb
It is written in Malaysia Language in three parts and it is entertaining:
- Guning Kinabalu Trip 2013: Part 1
- Guning Kinabalu Trip 2013: Part 2 Hiking Day (Mesilau - Laban Rata - Gunting Lagadan)
- Guning Kinabalu Trip 2013: Part 2 The Lows Peak attack from Gunting Lagadan
Mesilau trail is 2 kilometers more than Timpohon trail. It took her 7 hour 25 minutes to reach Laban Rata from Mesilau Gate. The trail is more scenic than the Timpohon trail with more variations in terms of scenery, i.e. forest, rocks face, cliffs, etc.
