Thank you for sharing useful information about climbing Mt. Guiting-guiting. It is indeed extra effort for climbers from the southern part of the country. I love the view on the way up, at this point, perhaps everyone was excited not minding the weariness that was yet to come. I can imagine the difficulty climbing while it was raining making the way more slippery. It was still an achievement on your part despite not reaching the summit. Someday you'll come back victorious.
