Following the path before me, I have passed by several junctures that are of vein like structure either leading me to a dead-end or another path. It was in there that I've had several thoughts like "What am I actually doing here?", "Should I still go on?", "Can I really do this?" and the like. But I was already there I thought. It would be of such waste if I would back out now. So I opened my Compass app again in my phone and see where the falls is located. I continued scouring the wilderness until I found a well made path. I followed it and there was already this feeling in me that I am heading towards the right direction. The path was continuous and no diversions along the way. I continued walking and I can see that I am at a higher elevation meaning I went pass the base of the mountain already.

Of Roots and Other Things: Mt Kupapey and Mt. Fato
From the summit, the sea of clouds was just really stunning. At times, it would give way for us to have a peek of the rice terraces from below. It may not be as fervent green yet as we were expecting but such a landscape is a diamond that cannot be pocketed but has the beauty to fill the eyes of every athirst soul.
Mt. Ugo: Day Hike Challenge
Doing a day hike is normal. But doing a major climb as a day hike involving a 32 kilometer trail with several assaults is definitely insane! Though it was fun. It was a test of endurance. It is a leisure itself that leaves you with no option but to finish what you started, to take into responsibility every action that you make. This is mountaineering. It is extremely dangerous yet it's all worth it in the end.
