Comments / Trip report:
I did this climb with Rob and Deividas. The trip was organized by Albert at Mtapoadventures, a small trekking company based in Davao.
We traveled from Davao to the trailhead in the afternoon the day before and stayed in the accommodation at the trailhead. Starting quite early (logistics reasons), we were walking already at 0315.
