Mount Rest a Bit

After an hour of clambering downhill which we initially thought was easy...well theoretically going down is easier than climbing up right? Theoretically. Due to popular believes too.

Well...it was no easy task, with roots sticking up out of the ground and slippery slopy trails we had to pay great attention less we loose our balance and plunge into the valley below. Might damage the environment. It was more mental exhaustion for me as we arrived at Gunung Reskit which is 1279m due to the intense concentration. Meow and i thought it was all downhill but no...we had to go uphill as well. That's why i look like shit as we took a rest at Reskit...and that does not take into account my attire which has remained the same and unwashed till now and that's 5 days old. No smell though. Must be the weather. Only discomfort is putting them on in the morning everyday gritting my teeth as the cold damp tights and tee clings to my skin and shivers me timber.
If you think i look like shit look at him. He looks worn and about to drop anytime.

Even the flowers are sweating. The mist is rather thick here and dew is still on these flowers waiting for it's turn to drop to the ground and finally flow into the ocean.
We moved on after a 5min break as we were warned that today we will be travelling a very long distance. From here on we take 5min breaks at any pit stop and there will be less pictures as i refrain from pulling my camera into action as it will be time consuming. My loss but more miles gained. A 'heavy on my heart' price to pay.
Next stop...Gunung Tangga Lima Belas...now that sounds scary.
