LoL, juichuan won't be around for the next week or so.

Anyway, the entrance to east trail is behind the huge water pipes. There are staircases heading towards the river from the end of the road. You have to cross the river to go behind those pipes and you can see a path which will lead you up the east trail.

Btw, saw it on 8pm news just now that a girl just fell from the rope section of west trail and sustained serious injuries. Hope she is going to be fine. Everyone be careful when climbing yeah

which news? gawd i hope she's okay. still...im all high hopes of going next week!

Yes saw the news too...& it's not the first..atleast 1 accident every few years..& mostly happening to students study nearby such as TARC & MIA...I read the 21 year old in deep/serious injury...They brought here down from the terrain & looks like she's in coma!

Be careful when climbing bkt Tabur

Hope she will get well soon. Injuries sounded quite serious and rescue team only managed to bring her to the foot of the hill after about 4 hours.

Cheers.

West trail but an accident juz happened last week. Be very kful when hiking.

I think better dont go at this point of time due to the wet season. very slippery leh...Hey jui chuan, Hornet, next time we finish those 6 peaks at east trail yah hehehe.

Sure. Next time will be more prepared. If you noticed, my camera bag was swinging left and right that day, which made it harder to climb

Haha yeah...thts 1 of the reason i didnt bring mine hehehe.

im goin at 6+am later. will update bout the hiking conditions

bukit tabur eH.....my playground there, it's a very nice place and a good training spot for rookies, where u all normally hike? there is to place to hike, the 1st is start from the klang gates dam which usually take 2-3hours while another 1 the entrance is at the waterfall there....where u take the staircase down, that route is shorter
