28th May 2010 to 31st May 2010
I’ll be leading a group of age 40+, normally sedentary dentists up tropical alpine peak, Mt Kinabalu 4095m on an expedition dubbed Not Quite Over The Hill.
Team members include
Chan Joon Yee
Chew Teck Hong
Raymond Lee
Leslie Ng
This is my 4th time climbing the mountain and my second time leading. Unlike the young ladies I led some years ago, this group comprises middle-aged people who are not into adventure travel at all. Nevertheless, I see it not just as a mammoth task but a worthy challenge to put everyone on the summit.
Wish me luck.
Update: Expedition Not Quite Over The Hill was a success. Only one member didn’t make it. It’s a great achievement for me. Apart from sharing my passion for the mountains with others, I’ve managed to take my best pictures of Kinabalu. It’s my 4th ascent and better weather conditions on summit day than on any other trip.
