Mt. Nangtud Climb - The Summit Awaits (Barbaza Antique) 8.21-25.2025

Image
  A breathtaking view captured at 8 a.m. from the ridge of Mt. Nangtud. We may not have pushed for the summit the next day due to bad weather, but we were still blessed with a stunning sunrise at the ridge,  a definite highlight of our climb, along with the serene river trail. This photo was taken on the second day during our backtrail, which involved several river crossings. Shoutout to our porter and guide from Lumboyan Trekkers, who prioritized our safety above all else, even when we insisted on pushing to the summit along with the other group. It was the right call; better safe than stranded. ______________________________________________________________________________ ITINERARY Day Zero (August 21) 04:50AM - 05:50AM - Cebu to Ilo-Ilo (via eplane) 06:00AM - 08:00AM - Rendezvous with kol Wendell 08:00AM - 12:00PM - Ilo-Ilo to Barbaza 12:30PM - 05:00PM - Secure permit, register at police station, kompral, habal2x guide's home 05:00PM - 08:00PM - Prepare food for tomorrow's ...
