Bucketlist #43 : Panjat tangga Batu Caves checked!

Sebenarnya lama dh teringin nak pi training dekat Batu Caves, tp macam malas since bebila boleh pi, dekat je kan so since last weekend mcm nak take a break from hike memane yang jauh, we went for Bt Caves instead. It was just 10 mins (or less) from my house so kitorang gerak at 7.30 am which is late sebenarnya, at first ingat nak park dekat depan KTM Batu Caves tu but nab kata dalam boleh parking, so we parked inside. Macam jakun juga sebenarnya since tak pernah tahu how the inside looks like, rupanya parking besar and banyak gila dalam tu tapi kena bayor RM2 for parking.

First thought dalam kepala is 'takpe ke masuk ni dhlah pakai tudung nanti dorg fikir apa pulak' hahaha gila unmatured, but i guess everyone pun rasa mcmtu, and i bet thats how non-muslim feels bila masuk masjid. feel that, bruh. 

the facts is, they don't even care. ha-ha.

there's no weird looks on their face, in fact, ramai je org melayu dalam tu, and they all came for the same reason, training.

at first rasa mcm 'ala, biasa biasa je kut tangga dia, training sini wouldnt be harder than panjat memane' lol i was wrong. naik turun few times pun rasa nak tercabut nyawa. for god sake, it's not easy. patut pun depa training sini.

met a 53 years old malay makcik dekat atas, and we borak, turns out she's on training for Nanga Parbat base camp (Nanga Parbat is the 9th highest mountain in the world at 8,126 metres (26,660 ft) above sea level) & already went to Annapurna base camp. God, its always been my dream weh, to be able to step my bare feet on ABC, insya allah one day. That makcik told us that time dorg training for ABC, they need to complete 10 sets naik turun tangga Bt Caves tu in one hour. thats not a joke k but they did, and salute ah this type of ppl, fit gila even dah in their 50's.

and that makcik advise us to keep doing this sementara muda, well, jangan jadi mcm dorg dah in 50's baru nak pi sana sini. tapi makcik pawer k. salute. insya allah penuh tabung, stamina okay, kitorang pi. we need to dream high, and make it possible. *insert emoji bicep*

we will, 
Annapurna base camp, kausabajap.

#4 : Lata Makau

Since takde kerja dekat office harini maka aku rajinkanlah diri buat post pasal trip kitorang pi Lata Makau ahad lepas. plan mcm biasalah, random gila. lately ni kitorang mcm tak reti duduk diam kalau weekend, ada ada je rasa mcm nak menyusahkn diri panjat memane/pi tiruk, before weekend je mesti meriah group ws discuss nakpi mana weekend ni, so yes, we chose Lata Makau since ada member ajak too, and since dh tahu jalan sbb pi kutu haritu.

so basically Lata Makau ni located at Kuala Kutu Bharu. to be exact, it's located right after Kem BMW, which is the campsite for Gunung Rajah via KKB. from what they said, it is 15 km trekking + hiking (sikit je kut) tp for me its more to trekking sebab canak dia tak macam bukit/gunung but still got.

so we took almost 4 hrs pergi balik, 2 jam pergi and 1 jam 50 minit balik so approx. 4 hrs lah. the timing was quite okay since kitorg banyak juga berhenti. the track mcm confusing juga sebenarnya.

remember my entry abt bukit kutu? kan aku habaq banyak tagging is it? jalan pi makau mcm kurang, senang cerita takde. ada pun mcm cebis cebis kertas putih org left kut buat mcm tagging. kitorang sampai pun lewat since pi ambil kereta sewa first dekat shah alam, 11 am baru start trekking. it was late. kitorang dh suruh imal ejoy and kwn dia gerak dulu since dorg dah sampai around 8 mcmtu, takkan nak tunggu kitorang kan? so yeah, they did.

and who's left is aku, megat, ara, nab and awin. and kitorang redah je. yes. since aku pernah panjat kutu, and sebab baru sangat pi, aku pun okay je suruh dorg gerak dulu. tawakkal je redah. they said ada 3 simpang to lata makau, and we need to ambik kiri je all the way, tu yang mcm berani sikit kut. kalau ada kena ambik kanan maybe aku suruh imal tunggu bcs i know how the track there looks like, banyak tagging but confusing. and simpang pun sebenarnya bukan 3, mcm banyak je. tu apa aku perasan la.

so simpang Y first kalau kanan ke Bukit Kutu, kita ambil kiri. second simpang Y kalau kanan pi Lata Medang, kiri Gunung Rajah/Lata Makau so ambik kiri lagi. Third simpang is after Kem BMW where kalau ambik kanan akan ke Gunung Rajah and ke kiri, to Lata Makau. dekat second simpang tu kita akan masuk mcm lorong kecil, and this one mcm quite confusing bcs all tagging yang dr awal trek tunjuk ke kanan, tapi tak, kita ambik kiri. KIRI ALL THE WAY K GAIS.

jalan nak pi Kem BMW lah yang jauh kut, from BMW ke Lata Makau mcm around 15 mins je kut, or less? don't worry you'll see lots of ppl camping dkt kem tu, lagi lagi on weekend, bcs dorg naik Rajah. salute ah org buat Rajah via KKB ni, trek dahi temu lutut, they said. ada member aku start panjat 8 am, sampai Lata Makau balik 2 am gais. trek pacak all the way. got no chill man. aku teringin tapi nanti lah, buat dari Chamang first. trek nak pi Makau pun dh mcmtu, ni nak naik Rajah, nangis. 

Lata Makau is so nice weh, berbaloi trekking jejauh, air dia hijau biru, dengan dalamnya, puas gila. thinking of nak tidur dekat BMW lepasni, sure akan repeat again! If only boleh bawak family sekali, boleh je just sanggup tak sanggup ah redah 15 km naik turun tu. you gais shud go, and let me know if you do.

Gambar berlambak dalam phone, nanti aku edit balik. Malaih transfer.

Ciao. 

#3 : Next Trip (Yong Belar)

So, next trip is insya allah first trip G7 aku, yong belar. aku buat trip ni since aku person in charge for lencana pengembaraan kelana, at first mcm takdapat sbb its more to lencana ekstreme but somehow they did gave us green light, so yeah, we proceed. cadangannya nak buat on september, and yelah, i'm still in my internship period. tapi sv aku sempoi, and i bet dia takdahal pun nak kasi cuti free if aku barai lepas trip ni nanti. 

it'll be 2d1n punya trip, compress la kut? sbb kalau santai sepak sepak daun biasa dorg pi 4d3n. kitorang collaborate dengan real adventure world (RAWR) this time, maybe pi 16 Sept - 18 Sept kut, tapi 16th tu hari Malaysia, mesti bersepah manusia. kalau pi 23 - 25 cam nice gila since aku habis intern on that 23rd Sept, kira this trip mcm trip raikan aku habis intern ah hahahaha lol

so far aku dh survey blog and go through log hiking dorang, and can't wait to layan pewai dekat batang pipe!

so nanti if this trip dh success, i'll sure share the log here. sabaq sat eh.

ciao.
