I have came back from Pelepah waterfall. Don’t worry i’m still in one peice. Mrs Chongky too. Though she is currently having some behavioral issues and now she thinks she is an insect.
On our way to the waterfall, we passed by Kota Tinggi and witnessed first hand the devastating effect of the recent flood. The terrain changed quite a bit from the heavy rainfall. Everything is suddenly steeper and still quite slippery. There were landslides, fallen trees across the river and stuff. The two days we were there it did rain. And pretty heavy in the night. Lucky i was already sleeping in the tent. A non-leaky tent.
The trek is definitely challenging. Nothing like what i have heard about being leisure and stuff. Perhaps it’s just me. Leisure to me sounds like a hike into Bukit Timah natural reserve. Even my lovely Teva feels slippery on the wet rocks. My Solomon dry pack broke, i’m not sure why. Everything got a bit moist.
Oh wellz. Kinda expected. Solomon has great design, but poor quality.
