My Mount Kinabahru Climbing Trip in 1996

Found several old photographs that record my trip to KK in year 1996. The Team Members were my colleagues at Bukit Batok Secondary School, with the Principal Mr Lim Lye Chuan. The age group of this team was from 30s to 40s. Before the trip, we had our weekly physical training heading by the PE head, Mr. Ong N. A. We ran 5.4km at our best speed. Then followed by stretching and other physical training.

When we reached the peak of KK, we realised all the efforts were worth it. We reached the second highest mountain of South East Asia. What an achievement!


I was shagged at this point! Temperature freezing, and the body was sweaty wet!

At half way, the clouds were below our feet, what a strange feeling!

At the Summit, tired tired tired!

Somewhere along the way to the peak. Can't remember the exact spot.

This was the half way house, we spent half a night rest in here, and started the up climbing journey at 2.30am.
