Mt. Palay-palay or better known as Pico De Loro (Parrot's Beak)

My first dayhike - also my first failure climb
Pico de Loro 
in Ternate, Cavite City

Hindi ko alam paano ako magsisismula sa pagsusulat ng kwento ko ng karanasan ko sa bundok na ito...Dapat ko pa ba ito isulat or hindi na?
But I came to the point na why not? Pinili ko magkwento ng lahat ng napupuntahan ko bilang pasasalamat sa pagkakataong ibinigay ng Lumikha sa ating Kalikasan...not only me had an experience like this...not only me had a sad story like this...I think every hikers/mountaineer had this similar experience...."failure climb"...
Ganun pala ang pakiramdam...di ka mapakali...gusto mo balikan agad...and sometimes keep on asking yourself...Bakit di ko ginawa?...Bakit di ako tumuloy? But keeping in mind those sad experience won't make you move forward...Kaya I just set aside those sad experiences and life must go on....Ang saya kayang umakyat ng bundok...ang sarap kaya na damahin ang biyayang ganda ng kalikasan...Kaya pipol...eto at ibabahagi ko sa inyo ang ganda ng Pico de Loro (Mt. Palay-palay)....sa abot ng aking karanasan...

a unique tree that catched my attention along the trail
Another view in campsite
Again....as I mentioned earlier...a "failure climb" does not mean we have to be disappointed...
This can only be charged into experience...though I did not climed the Monolyth... I can prove to myself that I can still do dayhike eventhough I'm not as young as other hikers...ayun yun oh! hehe
And soon I will go back to this very beautiful mountain and push my unfinished business...
See you soon again...Mt. Palay-palay or better known Pico de Loro...
Guys...who will join me here...taralets...byaheng jologs tayo!!!
