MacLehose Stage 4

The vacation ended up with the adventure in Tap Mun - the north-east island away from the New Territories. It is a tiny yet beautiful place. We stayed there few hours, trying to climb the rocks beside the sea, then hacking back home before the last ferry was gone. We found that nice weather gives us pleasure and also a hard time, this is the consequence, which hot and thirsty are combined.

Days and weeks followed were heavy rains and typhoons coming to Hong Kong, so we paused our adventure plans for nearly a month till last Sunday.

The weather was perfectly well, encouraged us to come back to the MacLehose, that's IV.

In this episode, we are going across the Ma On Shan (~600m) walking over 6 hours and 15 km.
Even though there were pretty much excellent views, the time limited made us continued without long breaks.

Watch the videos downward and you will understand more about the story*

For the next stage, we may either go for the V, VI, VII MacLehose or challenging the hilltop of Ma On Shan, extremely dangerous with 702m highest point, that is where I tried to go up in failure. We shall turn climbing soon.






Wrong Way! (Introduction of this trip)

Ma On Shan, Here I Come! + Solo adventure to the highest point.
For the next challenge, we'd probably get a better camera, more equipment, turn ourselves to a rock climber newbie, a special newbie...

(MORE VIDEOS WILL BE RELEASE SOON)
