In the beginning it was downhill...into the river. Our very first river crossing. See the river for the 2nd time was a refreshing reminder of my very first trip to Gunung Tahan, with it's crystal clear cool water that is sustenance to a parched throat was a grim reminder to the exhaustive climb ahead but still it was good to feel the coolness of the water. To be wet so early on in the trip may or may not be a good thing as the long hours ahead will remind us of this coolness that we are leaving behind once we cross to the other side and the journey will be uphill...on and on and on.
Watching from behind everybody else i can only smile proudly as my 25%, with all of her food and clothings in her backpack (which incidentally is the same color as mine) cross the cool river ever so carefuly.
