10t+ ft.



u can hear the power of God created wind all around. tried looking through the digicam the places I'd like to go to. starting from the base since i didn't had a map & it was my 1st time, i followed what logic told me to do to get to where i wanted to be, w/c was go straight. it was only a few mins. but those mins. were like forever. had no water to quench my parched lips. no food to revitalize me. was going against gravity & the weather wasn't helpful. even a leather jacket though can keep me warm, was inappropriate since i was doing a physical activity. even wanted to take it off, but would add difficulty w/ the challenge that lies before me. i was tired & scared i would get frost bite, i said to myself, this isn't worth it, to have a piece of my body to be amputated just because i wanted to reach the top of a mountain. what i did, instead of walking through snow w/c will submerge my already numb wet feet, i looked for solid objects that i could stand on, like rocks, trees, etc. though was helpful, still gave me a wound in my ankle, w/c i only saw after i tried to dry my snow drenched socks in a log i rested on, as in literally removing them, then squeezing them of water. i took pix of where i stopped when i took this vid, but wasn't able to see where they went. the sun would set by 4pm, would be dark by 5, it was pass 2 i think & didn't want mom to worry. there was no signal all over the mountain, can't recall if my battery was almost drained, wasn't even able to have it on roaming. was thinking should i proceed, or return. good thing i continued & after a while, i finally saw the 3rd look out point. there was a couple having a picnic so i asked permission if i could pee coz i really needed to go. they were kind enough to allow me, so i quickly removed my jacket coz i was sweating beneath it, turned around, then peed on the side of the mountain. after relieving myself, i felt vigor coz finally i saw the trail, i went back to the 1st 2 look out points only to be disappointed since i already saw the 3rd point. since time was against me, i hurried to the 4th & 5th spots. didn't tried to climb anymore the rocks above me for fear of falling over board on the 5th spot. it was a true test of will. will i give in & stop, or like what i always do, despite, the traffic, flood, storm, hurdles that comes my way, i will pursue
