Gg Bunga Buah
We made it to the summit of Mt. Bunga Buah. We were there when the wind blew on faces along with the sun. It's a good training ground for hikers planning to tackle higher and tougher mountain.
Maybe, this mountain has not seen hikers for a couple of week, just maybe. The forest has started creeping into the trek in some areas. It would be a good idea to wear long sleeve shirt and anything that covers your leg (unless you don't mind small-small scratches).
At the peak, the were some The leeches are not a menace but they still irritates, and surprisingly there are some green stripe leeches. The stubborn and painful biting one.
We would rate Mt. Bunga Buah as :

The scenery from our recent hike
Before the hike @ at entry point
After 1/2 an hour trek, we reached an old road
Mother nature claiming it back
Old quarry
Jungle frame
Up ahead is Bunga Buahs summit
Found this guy on trek
Rock Garden
This is one of the stop point
Nice breeze and one can see Genting Highland from this point
Genting Highland from a distance
One of the view
The "lotong"s as locals call it can be heard shouting from here
Distinctive sound
Sharp at noon, we saw the steel structure marking the summit
The guys at the summit
We descended just a bit for flat and bee/wasp free ground
Here we had our lunch
Our unofficial cook
Nice Pose
Thats all guys.
We are planning to go again to do some clean up
and clear the trail a bit.
