there's no bridge.. but a staircase.. guess we need to take the hard way. river crossing. this water is very shallow. so need not to worry about his.

dondon83
after a while we passed the Dam, we saw this sign... oh great!! Kem Lolo this way.. and mean we're near!!

dondon83

dondon83and i notice this Stone!!! look at it! it's actually the Borderline of Selangor and Pahang. which mean.. i'm 1 leg stepping on Pahang ground and another of my leg stepping on Selangor Ground . doesn't that sound cool :D. hehehehe okay, maybe to me. after that. we're heading back to where we come from.. i start heading down at 1:30pm. better go down early else u will still in jungle when the sky turn dark.

dondon83look at the time... it's almost 6:15pm when i reach this Entrance (1). due to heavy rain while coming down.. there is no photo taken along the way.. my journey to Nuang Mountain is consider Complete now. oh my gosh!!! it took me nearly 12 hours to complete the mountain hiking. from 6:45am to 6:15PM. but i had a great experience :).
