Itinerary description
it was a night hike start on 7pm ascended in the rain, long nap at Hman Pya Summit ( 8SrTYa ), and then early morning 2:30 am start for the ridge hike to catch the sunrise from Kyauk Pa Daung plateau. Ridge Hike first hour with some rain and fog, but waited in the morning dew and the fogs suddenly disappear with better visibility. Mt. Popa ridge hike had the most mesmerizing and astonishing view, from the South plateau (RHS of ridge hike) many clouds coming up towards the ridge while (LHS of the ridge Crater Rim and Deep forest with stillness ).
