Gunung Yong Belar and Gunung Irau Expedition.2010,August 13rd-15th

对不起，迟写了。第二次到Gunung Yong Belar,第一天，放了工，回到家，拿了背包就往Kota Kemuning 的方向驾驶。七点钟一定要到达那，因为Weng Kit 和Tata 会在Kota Kumuning载 我们。Eh?，大伟也到了，等了一会儿。Weng Kit 和 Tata 也到了。到齐了，出发咯。Chee Loong , Wai Kit 和 OPY 在Kepong 出发。而老师，Puffy,Pang,Monica,Adrian,在中午的时刻也出发了。出发路途中，Tata还没吃晚餐，刚好人有三急，就到了一个休息站上个厕所，顺便打包。风雨很大，放慢驾驶速度。一路上，Pang,sms,打电话关心我们的安全。驾了三四个钟的车。终于到了金马伦的一间店面叫88的名。到的时候，老师，Puffy,Pang,Monica和Adrian在炸炸鸡，泡茶。第一晚我们就在这睡了。天气真的好冷。

第二天清晨的早上，大家分工合作把背包搬到老师的Hilux 车后。各自找位子上车。雨终于停了，路途济水，石头路坎坷。不久，到了Blue Vallery。大家准备早餐。也准备心情上那高高的楼梯路。一路上每个人都很喘。过了水坝，里面的路都生满了高高的树枝，树根。想想已经有一年多没人到过这座山了。开了几段路，最后还是找不到那路线。虽然，这一次我们去不到，下次我们会在来。最好，大家决定用一天的时间爬上Gunung Irau.那雨一下停，一下子下。天气又冷，九点起步上。一路上大家都很有合作的精神。谢谢Chee Loong,Weng Kit,Tata,大伟 和Wai Kit 背着食物和水上到山顶。也谢谢OPY,Adrian,帮忙煮食物。还有要谢谢老师煮的午餐加哩。吃了午餐，准备回K.L

在一次的谢谢驾车的朋友，谢谢大家互相帮忙。谢谢你们，也谢谢ODA Adviser,ODA Ms Puffy,ODA Committee :Pang, Sian Seong Chian Nii,Monica.

Best Regards

|- Yong Belar/G Irau -|

Its a wonderful trip as i came back with mixed feelings and its a little bit weird as this feeling has been following me for quite sometime.

No-matter things happen to us or to others, it brings a lesson.

I even just realised that we do have some skills to pack up our backpack.
I do believe that everything we had come across in life ,even something which seems or sounds simple, do bring us a little bit of knowledge, the only matter is whether we realise it or not

I think things happen for a reason
I mean, we may be disappointed for this so-called incomplete trip
but for me,

because when i first entered CHEELOONG's car,
the way he described WAIKIT ,
from there i knew that - Again~~ i have again underestimated G7...

To look at it positively i think i appreciate the given chance for me to go 'near' to it and feel it ,
so that i can come back and re-estimate and re-adjust the way i should look at it.
and i could have a better preparation next time if i can get another chance to go for another visit.

This is the first time i felt so young i was,
because people around me , they were so caring in that few days.
I know ive been a lil' bit quiet that few days but actually, thats the real me.
I hope this doesnt bother y'all too much ,if it does i would like to apology for that.
I got a shocked when people can actually notice that i was just too quiet.
Actually everything's okay and its just fine,
except that seeing u guys busying looking for trails but i failed to help.
I truly wished i could help, little bit maybe.....?

so that I have only one conclusion with me and that is-- a lot more to learn.... =)
haha,  THANK YOU!

gunung yb/irau

its the first attempt for me to give G7 a try.which is reli tough.and i did a bit of training,speaking frankly. it was never that excited and fear at the same time for me to get onto the mountain peak.
ODA gave the best shot,trying to search for the trail and stuff.nvm,keep it up next time!

thankx once again for ODA to give everyone the chance to see the true nature.

its a tough and mixed feeling for me,especially the special training given to me during the trip-the lost of my camera,its great to know that its still alive and that i can reli gain something from the lesson!thankx to Ms.Lim.. it pushed me to another level of conciousness.

walaupun the trip to irau was weird for me(in terms of after losing my camera) but i managed to fight over my own emotion slightly and keep fighting till the whole trip ends.
THANKX ODA!
See u guys next trip!

Gunung Yong belar/Irau Expedition

Gunung Yong Belar/Irau Expedition

Gunung Yong Belar- one of the Mountain i always looking forward to went there. The first G7 Mountain i visit,which is back to years 2006 before we went to Gunung Tahan. The feeling is great everytimes we visit to Gunung Yong Belar. Cold weather, nice trails,plus with a gangs of nice people.

For this expedition,i can say alot of mixture thinking and feeling has come out from my mind when this is ODA first time to declared call off Yong Belar expedition. What i have thinking about? I am mad on myself actually. I am self- talking at that time.Thinking of PST, PST......how could this things happen in ODA??? Are you the one who need to take responsible on this thing happen? Are you put enough effort to look for the trails? Are you really ready to bring such a good team to visited Yong Belar?Are you prepared Yong Belar trails information with you??Why all the way, we have followed the right way proceed to Yong Belar yet we still not manage to complete it? What we have done wrong???

From the day of depart, it is a bad sign for us.Which is heavy rain all the way from KL to Cameron. This is really make me worry for Tata and Chee Loong.To SMS-ing remind them to drive safety all the way to Cameron, no need rush for the time.It is a really cold night, my first experience super heavy rain and cold night at Cameron.I am feel uncomfortable on that night. The next day when we proceed to the farm, Hilux has stuck at the trails.I am didnt say anything, and i looked at Laosi eyes, it tell me very firmed that no matter what we will get through all these.We will proceed to Yong Belar.

This is the first time, we didnt manage to reached Yong Belar Peak. Because all the trails are closed now as compared last time we visit. However, all the way proceed to the trails everyone are trying very hard and keep on looking for the trails. Special thanks to Laosi, Lee Chee Loong, Tata, Weng Kit to try very hard and keep on opened the trails for everyone.

Thousand apologized for everyone who joined us to Yong Belar Expedition. Chee Loong, Tata, Wengkit, Tar Wei, OPY, Adrian, Wai kit.Thanks for you understanding ODA have to called off on Yong Belar Expedition due to concern about the safety on everyone,weather, mixed up trails, timing to reached Yong Belar Peak.

Eventhough we didnt manage to reached Yong Belar Peak,somehow everyone still with very strong outdoor spirit to accomplished another Mountain - Gunung Irau!!!

G.Yong Belar/ G.Irau 2010 Aug 15th-17th

G7- Gunung Yong Belar 听起来都怕，还是要去看看的。

很感谢老师在还没出发前给我们来一个briefing( 就像给了我一颗镇定丸），听完后大致上就清楚了也开始做些准备工作更期待日子的到来。就在那天，与十年不见的旧同学-David Tiew Tar Wei
再次见面了感到开心又兴奋。

当天下午我们一车四人+一条狗浩浩荡荡的出发了，一路上都下这大雨。很快的四个小时后就抵达目的地了，雨依然的在下着我们就在哪儿附近的商场外落脚了（这也是我第一次没在帐篷了过夜）。

第二天睡醒天气好好的，我们就依照行程表进行活动。在去campsite的路上，因天气路不好走，我们好不容易才到达。在这我好敬佩老师，她好勇敢哦不顾一切的闯过那凹凸不平的山路我都吓到把眼睛闭上了。

这时候G7就开始了（紧张），一关又一关的闯过去却来到死路。老师，Pang, LCL, Tata, Weng kit & Bee Suan 用了两小时尽全力的想要开出路来，但种种因素我们只好返回。。。
就这样我又有机会回到GUNUNG IRAU。

虽然我们没完成GUNUNG YONG BELAR，但却很开心的完成GUNUNG IRAU。老师你不需要感到内疚，就因这样我们才会很快的回到GUNUNG YONG BELAR。

谢谢大家，希望很快的又和你们见面。。。

Sorry to all Yong Belar Trip Members..

Dear all,

First of all, congratulations to all Yong Belar trip members for coming back to KL safety. After those 3days, I think all of you already exhausted, hopefully now all of you already get a good rest and fully recover from your tiredness.

This trip, as trip leader, very sorry because I unable to followed you all to G.Yong Belar due to changes in my exam schedule. I really hope I can join you guys, but too bad..

Anyway, this trip is must be a tough trip because according to Miss Lim and Pang, 90% of G.Yong Belar's trail already covered by ''paku-pakis'' around the area. Therefore, all of you have to use your body to 'clear' the trail, this must be very tiring and painful especially clearing the ''paku-pakis''.

But all the pain never stopped you to continue proceed, you guys are fantastic !!

Not only that, few days after trip, I was shocked because all of you seen to be more motivated to go G.Yong Belar again, I think this is the 'Outdoor Spirit' which every outdoor lovers should have. Awesome !!!

I also wish to thanks all ODA !!

Thank you ODA Advisor/GPS for this trip , Miss Lim Kwee Hoon for trying so hard to look for the trail and lead the team during trip. Not only that before trip, she also helped me a lot in preparing trip planning and trip briefing and conduct the trip briefing. Thank you !!

Next, of course is the Trip Leader 2, Pang Siew Ting. Before trip, she also helped me a lot in giving suggestion on trip planning and checking all the equipments before depart. During trip, thanks to her for managing all the 'big big small small' things and brought everyone back safety. Thanks !!

Last but not least, thank you all others ODA committees during the trip, Bee Suan, Monica, thanks for helping out during trip. I'm sure both of you are very tired because of running here and there to look for trail. Thank you..!!

And to Chee Loong, Tata, Weng Kit, Adrian, Phei Ying, Tar Wei, and Wai Kit...Don't be too demotivated because never reach G.Yong Belar peak. Although you never reach the peak, but after this trip, you already gained more experience and learn more things.

Hiking, whether we reach peak or not is not important, important is what we able to learn during the process...Today, I'm sure you already learned something from the trip, so be happy with what you learn !! =D Don't worry, G.Yong Belar always there, one day, lets go again !!

Lastly, Thank you everyone for work as a team during the trip and once again congratulations coming back to KL safety !!!

G.Yong Belar, we will visit you again !!!

I wish I can stand inside this photo with all of you !!

Best Regards,

sianseong
