After TAMPARULI, i found my lodging for the nite in PUncak Bornoe Resort. A friend recommended the place. I did not think much of the place till you enter the restaurant. OMG..... the view is breathe taking... Mt Kinabalu right in your face... The rooms are expensive but you pay for the view.
I was told to wake up at 5.30 am to see the sunrise from the Mt. Faithfully, I did that failed to see the sun .
The view is like having this beautiful mountain at your door step.Awesome.
Breakfast at 7am. The sun is already so bright but freezing cold.
Carson Falls on my climb up . We were dressed warmly up but as the climb gets tougher, the sweater has to go. I did not complete the climb since we were not prepared mentally and physically for me. IT NO JOKE... the steps are tough but the weather is really cooling around 17C. My friend was yawning all the way up. To her, it was kacang.
Timpohon to Carson's Fall
Why am I dying here? My heart rate is high and sweating so much. The forest around was alive with birds singing and squirrels in the morning. Many porters carrying huge barang walked even faster than me. I told myself that if i were to carry the load.. I might just die here.
By the way, the porter is a male of 53 . This is the 12 water tank that he is carrying up in the month of Oct. I salute him with all my heart.We reached Pondok Ubi and decided to descend. Descending is tough on the knees. Then I really felt old.
Look at the steps. Be prepared.
