to Gunung Nuang.
Gunung Nuang

the state of Selangor adjacent to Pahang state. At about 1,500 meters or 5,000
feet high, Gunung Nuang can seen from Kuala Lumpur or Genting Highlands and is
part gravel, dirt road with thorns, roots, muds, trees with streams. Basically
Gunung Nuang is used a training ground for trekking among runners and climbers.

Fahrin and
his friends when on an expedition trekking to Gunung Nuang one weekend. Everything
was fine on the way to the peak of the hill but in the evening on the way back
it started raining heavily literally like cats and dogs. Their clothes were
soaked and totally drenched from the pouring rain as they marched single file
along the footpath. Fahrin, being more experience with trekking, moved back
slowly to make sure the newer members are still there.
