A LEISURE HIKE AT GUNUNG PULAI

Got a call from  a friend and also a member of southern hikers, she asked if I was free on sunday afternoon as she wanted to hike in preparation for her future trip to Nepal. So I agreed. Though the weather was no too favourable and it looked like it was going to rain, but since she came all the way from Johor Baru and not to disappointed her I agreed to proceed with her plan. And besides being a season hikers we had our ponchos handy when it rained.
 At first we went through the stream to hike on the mountain trail, but after the 2nd tier we could not find the trail due to heavy rain for the couple of days earlier and also the path was slippery and so we cut across another stream to continue on the tared road leading towards the army base. But  after an hour or so we had to make our way down as it was getting dark, and it looks like it was going to rain. Further more it was almost dinner time and down we went and went to a nearby restaurant for our dinner.
