There's a wedding ceremony that was about to start when we arrived. Some of my climbing buddies joked...."Tamang tama...pagbaba natin....sa reception ang tuloy natin."

I like this picture....it is just like a Walking Dead poster.

I'm so stubborn...I hiked Tagapo the first time..April last year...And it was so darn hot..the summit was burned as hell..............now...Dejavu.

Trail to heaven..yey!

We spent more time resting and waiting for the boat. Climbing Tagapo is great. I'll go back here next time but not in April....maybe one of the -ber months.

FIN!!!
I will definitely go back to Tagapo and try an overnight camp!

'Till next climb!!!
