A late upload of our hike to Mount Stone Sword. https://somee.blog/@arlenec2021/lqecckqz #someeofficial

Here is Mount Binacayan. I first came here in 2018 with my brother and his wife. This is now my second time. I climbed this mountain last 15 April this year with our Pastor and the youth in the church. https://somee.blog/@arlenec2021/hlgvhntx Mount Binacayan is 424 meters tall above sea level and is suitable for beginning mountaineers. The mountain is located in the municipality of Rodriguez province of Rizal where more than seven mountains can be found. It is also home to the famous and lovely Wawa Dam which attracts the attention of many outdoor enthusiasts. Reaching the top of Mount Binacayan, you will have an enjoyable sight of the beauty of the Wawa River and the Sierra Madre mountain range. #someeofficial

The two-hour trail isn’t easy, but it’s worth it. It’s rocky and the stones are sharp. https://3speak.tv/watch?v=arlenec2021/sbcyxler The one you saw in the video is the wear on the side of the rocks. My husband said it’s like a Lord of the Rings passage. Reaching the peak, I could not describe how I feel. When I reached the top of the mountain, I placed the sun in the palm of my hand. Thanks for your time! #someeofficial

https://3speak.tv/watch?v=arlenec2021/qrqtjytf In December 2018, I went on my first lengthy hiking and mountain-climbing excursion. I joined a group of climbers, and we followed the Ambageg trail, which is regarded as the simplest path. It wasn't simple. We took close to five hours. The weather was really cold. The colder it got as we climbed higher made me believe I would not survive. When we finally arrived at the summit, the consolation was worthwhile in the end. We were thrilled and enthralled. Last but not least, I had the opportunity to step on what was referred to as "the playground of the gods." The Philippines' third-highest mountain is called Mount Pulag. It is situated along the three-province border between Benguet, Ifugao, and Nueva Vizcaya. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Pulag 3Speak #someeofficial

I am still studying how to upload videos on 3Speak. I realized that uploading videos there and publishing them on SoMee Tribe seems not working properly, so I decided to edit the post here on the somee.social platform itself. https://3speak.tv/watch?v=arlenec2021/scudhatf Finally, we arrived at the peak. The temperature was cool and the weather was windy. It took us two hours to reach the summit. Before sunrise, we already reached the peak. We were so glad and satisfied we are glad because we can watch the sunrise. Unfortunately, because of the clouds from the sea, the sun started to hide. The sunrise has passed, and the sun is just glancing at us from time to time. Though we felt a little dissatisfied, still we are happy and grateful for witnessing the beauty of nature that has been displayed before our sight. #someeofficial

https://3speak.tv/watch?v=arlenec2021/qauwsxbw The name “Batulao” has three possible derivations. First, it could mean “stone in the light” in English, which is the translation of the Tagalog phrase “bato sa ilaw.” Another source could be a combination of the Tagalog words “bato” (rock) and “dilaw” (yellow). The latter refers to the mountain’s color during sunrise. Among the three origins of the word, I prefer “light on two stones,” a result of the shortening of the Tagalog phrase “ilaw sa dalawang bato.” This third version of the name calls my attention to an interesting story. The “two stones” refer to “illuminated rocks” in relation to the wonder of nature that takes place at the mountain in the month of December. During this period, the rays of the sun arise out of the valley between the mountain’s two prominent peaks and light them up. I went there last 25th March of this year. Together with the youth of our church, we climbed the mountain. The trail is very narrow and rough. Due to the slippery and dangerous character of the mountain, climbing it was not easy.

And here is the second video. That's the wear on the side of the rocks. My husband said it’s like a "Lord of the Rings passage." #someeofficial
