Let the storms begin! Mad for mud, winds, rains, slippery roots, sleepy snakes in their holes, wild cats, and isolated rock traversing. Few pictures, could not risk Panasonic in the rains...
Mount Arayat. My first love.
Lost count how many times I've been up to Mt. Arayat, and the last time i summit Mt arayat is during a stormy weather. Im not scared of a little downpour, I actually kind of enjoy it.
But not just a bad weather, Pampanga that time is down to signal number 2. With Mami Ei and Miles and my go signal from Rochelle our plan to trek Arayat with storm signal number 2 still pushes through. I dont have any reason why do we need to cancel or reschedule the climb, all i know is i want to climb that time.
I guess it’s a good idea to spend a few quiet days in the mountains with rains and thunder. After all, I always like to be in a mountain, its my most favorite place. Being in a mountain, I feel peaceful, its so quiet, since not many people want to climb on a rainy day.
Trail is easier and more forested than it appears from highway. This was much more beautiful than I expected. Much more forested than you would expect when you look at the mountain from below, and that contrasted with the boulder made for a very interesting hike.
Amazing views but could have been better at the summit if it weren't for the cloud cover.
Well, no matter the reason, always remember where you are. You are in the mountain. You cannot control the weather. You are dealing with an unpredictable phenomena, remain humble and be heedful .If you prepare yourself with the right gear and the right attitude, you can expect anything right coming your way.
