Itinerary description

Originally, we both had a very little known hill, Kapit Hill (900m +/-), in mind. However, seeing how wide and strong the river current was, as it leads to a very beautiful, but also, very violent, waterfall (also, we don't want to get our boots' wet🤣. It's a holiday hike, so, nah...), we decided to detour, and go where the trail leads us, which is the Orang Asal's foot highway, in these parts, where they hunts and gather forest produce.
As we checked the topographic map, as provided by Wikiloc, we noticed that the trail we're on, is heading towards an unknown, and unnamed, mountain, standing at 1050m (+/-). However, at 927m, the trail went cold, as it is overgrown with wild vegetation. So, of course, being lazy🤣, we turned back. I mean, we've covered at least 12km, what else do we want? 🤣🤣🤣

PS: In the same area as well, there's few other 1000m and above mountains as well. Very interesting. And we found out from the Orang Asal here, that one can also hike towards Mount Yong Yap. Hmmmm......

Looks like it has been recently cleared by the Orang Asal, for plantation purposes

At this point, we decided to turn back, as it's very dense
