  • Madlum Cave And Mt Manalmon Trip

Few weeks after the formal announcement (including the date and location) a lot of the members already created their own activity on that specific date, so as a result, just the two of us will be doing the day trek, so we added a sidetrip going to Giant Lantern Festival in Pampanga as per VP Jerald.

  • Hiking Mt Manalmon Madlum And Bayukbok Cave

    Every holiday in a calendar is a day to be seized. We should spend it very wisely by doing things we want, be productive, make it memorable if possible and/or spend it with our love ones. As old saying, "Time is gold" we should not waste it and make the most of it instead. As for me, I spent the last holiday by doing the things I like and with one of my love ones. I went on a hike with my younger sister. I joined her again with her colleagues on their hike to Mt. Manalmon.

  • Diwatas of Biak na Bato

    In this day and age, one would be surprised that there are still those who believe in the existence of a "diwata" or fairy-like being that rules in so-called sacred mountains of the country. Tales of "Mariang Makiling" in the mountain ranges of Los Baños, Laguna; "Mariang Sinukuan," the goddess of Mount Arayat in Pampanga; and "Maria Cacao" in Cebu have kept mountain visitors and dwellers thinking if they really are just a pigment of the imagination.
