Borneo - Day 7. Climbing KINABALU 4095 m.

Up at 2.00 and climbing by 3.00.
The rock was dry and there were plenty of fixed ropes to help.
The altitude could be felt and the going was slow.
It took 2 and a half hours to climb the final 2 km. with a height gain of 823 m., 2,700 ft.
Myself and Richard at the summit, Low's Peak, at 5.30 am. 4095 m., 13,735 ft.
The lights of Kota Kinabalu just before dawn.
Then the walk back down to the lodge for breakfast.


Another 3 hours downhill through the jungle got me back to the National Park gate and my bus back to Kota Kinabalu.
