Itinerary
To ensure today’s journey, the crew will leave early to return to the hut not too late.
Today’s total is 15.5km. The team will go to the top along the old forest road.
On the way, there are many thick scrubbed grass sections, and members need to prepare towels, hats, and dangerous cliff-free paths, mainly mountain-to-mountain trails, and the height changes slowly. The members must prepare neck and face scarves, cheap ear caps, gloves, and high-neck socks.
The flashlight and energy food need to be prepared and brought today.
05:00: You wake up, take a personal bath, then prepare for breakfast.
06:00: Start the journey, conquer Pu Si Lung Peak.
The first step is mainly to climb uphill over low-painting grass hills. The team needs to enter the old forest early before the sun rises to avoid losing strength and water.
It’s about a six-hour journey from the campsite to the top. The hillsides of the mural grass, the slopes of the old forest, the nursery and Do Quyen, and moss and lichens are all over the road leading to the top, respectively.
At an altitude of about 2650m, the old forest in Pu Si Lung seems to be forgotten by the civilized world, and the vegetation is almost intact.
It is expected that at 11:30, the group will reach Pu Si Lung Peak at 3083m above sea level, and the group will take a commemorative photo and celebrate the successful conquest. Meanwhile, Porter will prepare food and set up tables and chairs, and the crew will have lunch at the top.
