Gunung Korbu, standing at 2183m above sea level is the second highest peak in Peninsula Malaysia. Having climb Gunung Kinabalu, the highest peak in Malaysia, I expected the trek up to the peak to be a breeze. When my good friend Suhaimi invited me to join his group of matriculation students for this hiking expedition, I gladly accepted without hesitation. The only problem nagging me was that I might slowed the group down just as I did to my lady friends while hiking Gunung Kinabalu! We reached the starting point at Ulu Kinta early in the morning and started our climb after a short session of doa selamat. The first day was a whole day hike, treking alongside a river. As we went higher up, the river began to flow swifter and the jungle trails became more undefined. This signalled the start of our, oops.. my misadventure.
The matric students so young, you so old and sure slow them down!
