Itinerary description

2nd climb of amputee Melvin Tong, after being the first amputee ever to reach Kinabalu Summit on April 2010.
An inspiration for everyone.

20 hours hiking not except for 1h rest/lunch at Laban Rata Resthouse between 13:30pm to 14:30pm.

Rain non-stop from 10:00am to 20:00pm. 4h at night early morning (2:30am to 6:30am) and 4:30 more hours at night (18:00pm to 22:34pm)...

Very exhausting, very slippery, very dangerous on clutches...
Respect for Melvin Tong, second time achiever!
