This is a back dated posting regarding hiking mount kinabalu which i completed in August 2011. Previously didn't have the right mood to write the posting as the journey itself was full with drama, excitement, upset, disappoint, etc. Our mood have been up and down like riding roller coaster in this trips. I will detail it down on later why i said so.
It is until my friends who just came back from hiking mount Kinabalu and post many beautiful photo in his facebook that really make me feel wanna put it back in blog.

| Waiting for our transport for 2 hours |
Our group consist of 11 members. Team leader is our Hiking and Diving head Mr jeffrey tan. Reach Kinabalu Airport around 1.00 pm and meet our "agent" around 1.30 pm. We waited about 2 hour for the transport. ( First signal thing may get worst on the way). As we are in high spirit, we didn't notice any fishy and still happy to be in Kinabalu. After our transport reach, we cramp in one van and go for lunch.

| The road to Kundasang can be dangerous |
We reach our accommodation at Puncak Borneo Resort around 6.30 pm. All of us sleep in double Decker dorm. Water was cold but the food at this resort is really good.
The first day was all about travel by air and then by road till Kundasang, the nearest town before start hiking to Mount Kinabalu at Timpohon or Mersilau gate.
