Climbing the same mountain twice or more is a different experience and tells different story! indeed, we had so many unforgettable epic moments here in MT. BATULAO .
This was the mountain I've been with for the very first time , so since this is my second time here I will be the one who served as their tour guide. naks!

Mt. Batulao consist of many peaks ( I'm not sure how many it has, but I saw 10 peaks, but local said it has 12? okey..Each peak have different level of difficulty but you can only see almost same view. lol!!
This was a traverse hike, again from new trail to old trail ang trekked namin, according to my firstimer buddies, it was easy to take new trail for going up, and it was hard for them the old one, ( Actually it was not hard, the only problem is when you are afraid of heights, matarik yung pababa from the summit using old trail. The trail was dusty, always bring wet wipes and more water. oh I would advise you to use trekking shoes/sandals, or else uuwi ka with barefoot!

After a months since I've been here, the mountain changed a lot, or maybe the mountain wasn't the same like the first time I saw it.

It turns me blue! :( I was so $^#$& when I saw this situation, the mountain was burned so bad! I asked locals, others said they burned to plant ( something to eat or sell to earn I guess) and others said (para daw maganda ulit ang tubo ng mga talahib after rainy season.) anyway whatever their reason, I was not happy with it.!

The laughter that you guys brought was epic..hoooh I will never forget how hard this was to the firstimer.Special mention to "Jackie"
Im a silent climber,whahah,,Sa kanila ang kwento sakin na lang ang napakalakas na TAWA!
This was also the pinakamatagal na trek I had. hahah. alot of breaktime and photoshot, we started our trek at 9am reached Peak10 at 12pm, then we reached the jump off at 6? hahah. amazing, but it was fine, we own our time anyway.
