Of Watermelons And A Hill

It was less traversed, less explored, less known.

Yet, we went to it, embraced it and had ourselves roasted under the sun with full enthusiasm, renewed glory and much to reminisce about.

If a hill is deemed challenging, it is Bukit Tabur East that will give that hill a run for its money. And YES, we made our mark there right at the summit of Bukit Tabur East!

A relatively simple trek though it was, the vertical rock climbing route that preceded the summit was truly a physical teaser, especially during descent.

Eventually, though, the hike went well, the watermelons gave a hydrating assurance after losing much hydration traversing up and down the rocky Bukit Tabur East, and courtesy of Kar Lye's baking passion (an assumption), six humans received birthday chocolate cookies.

Atop the hill, it could be clearly seen that KL city was a polluted scene while the Klang Gates' Dam had a backdrop of serene greenery.

Although fatigue kicked in for a few persons, the fact that everyone was down safe and not losing any limbs was testament of what the mind can do. Applauds too to a few caring souls who provided their strength and support to the fatigued persons.

Now, the following pictures will do the narrating of the hike chronologically.
