    Some Orchids From The Mount Kalatungan Range Natural Park Bukidnon Mindanao

    It was October 31, 2016, when the first author made his first trip to the Mount Kalatungan Range Natural Park (MKRNP), which is situated in the central portion of the province of Bukidnon, on Mindanao.

    The 5th Highest Mountain In The Philippines Mount Kalatungan Travers To Mount Wiji

    My hubby is a professional climb guide here in Mindanao and of course he wanted that wherever we may go, our little BABEYBOO will be with us. He has a goal for BABEYBOO to complete the top 5 highest mountains of the Philippines. We planned the climb date for March 29 to 31 and went along with the other participants. We made sure we packed the baby stuff and gears. That's very important to not forget all the things the baby needed. That's for 3 days and 2 night's period of time.

Ok, so that sounded a little too bragging but let me steal the limelight and draw up the pride and adulation of summiting one of the toughest traverse in northern Mindanao; Mt. Kalatungan to Mt. Wiji. Looking back at Kitanglad-D2 traverse, Mt. Kalatungan, in its full multiplicity and elaboration, is a great trophy of climbing perseverance and deserves its very own shelf in my hiking library.

    After a 2-hour trip from Iligan to CDO, we met with other 16 ...

    New PH Orchid Species Named After Duterte

    A new Robiquetia species has been found in the Kalatungan Mountain Range, one of the mountains of Bukidnon.

    "We take this opportunity to name this species as Robiquetiadutertei."

    It has subsequently been recorded from Camiguin Island and Mt. Malindang, Misamis Occidental in Mindanao. The species has been seen in orchid markets in Manila and sold as Robiquetiacerina(RCHB. F.) GARAY. The exact provenance of the traded plants had erstwhile been unknown, with few, if any, specimens surviving in the hot climate of Manila available for study. A search of the relevant literature for the Philipp ...
