My dream to conquer the 4th highest peak in South East Asia finally came true last July 2010. Mount Kinabalu, located in Sabah stood at 4095.2 meters above sea level & is also a UNESCO WHS of Malaysia (Under Kinabalu Park).
Training started 8 months before the real climb - jogging, dumbbell exercise, stairs climbing. The journey was tough....but the experience was...PRICELESS!

| Ascend - Mesilau trail (9.00am); Descend - Timpohon trail |
 |
| Arrived at Laban Rata Resthouse at 4.12pm (photo taken at about 6pm+, after dinner & bath) |
 |
| Low's Peak - the highest peak on Mt Kinabalu @ 6am the next day (journey started @ 2.30am) |
 |
| Familiar? This is Southern Peak (look behind your behind RM1 note) |
 |
| Breathtaking view from the Peaks |
 |
| Wow! Amazed with Nature's creation :) |
 |
So steep~~It was really cold up there!
Yours truly (will definitely try this again~) |
