5.5.11

This is a special day where I have reached South Peak, Mount Kinabalu...my best achievement so far in my 3rd Mt. Kinabalu expedition. I thank Almighty for blessing me with good weather on the morning of the climb and as so far my training has helped me in reaching to this point. Everything was so good although the day before I was soaked in the rain when ascending up to Laban Rata. My timing was also good with 5.5 hours from Timphohon to Laban Rata.

Nevertheless, descending was tired and painful on my knee not like the previous two rounds. This is probably due to over pressure from South Peak to Laban Rata which took me about 7 hours and then another 5 hours from Laban Rata to Timphohon in heavy rains.

It was a great journey and I will be back again to conquer the Low Peak !!
