Worlds Longest Crystal Quartz-Rich ridge-Crystal walk conquered!
Adapted from: endemicguides: '' This Tabur Ridge is a long and narrow series of karst hills with a high content of Quartz crystals. The ridge itself, averaging 200 feet high, runs in a semi circle bordering the eastern edge of Kuala Lumpur city. The Tabur Hill Ridge is rated the Longest Quartz-Rich Ridge in the world. Quartz is one of the three common components in the formation of rocks. '' wow! longest in the world! does it look challenging looking from the pic? shall we make the challenge now! yeah...let's go!!!

Gurindam Jiwa tagged this as his favourite..erm not bad..haha Here is the view from the top of the hill. We can't see anything other than the thick haze.
Nonetheless, I guess I haven't seen any blogs of Bukit Tabur with thick haze. We are the first perhaps~
We can't see anything
This pic was taken when we were climbing down the hill. At that time, the weather started to be hot and the haze are gone so we are able to get clearer view. Addition bonus for us to see both thick haze and without as well.

Well, what a great day! We are not expected to be here, Bukit Tabur as safety has become our concern since it was raining till late night the day before and even early in the morning today itself. Our initial plan is to go G-Hill, another hill nearby which does not require us to climb but just involves walking, yea..its kind of boring but we have to change plan due to the weather and safety reasons. Out of expectation, we are here at Bukit Tabur to challenge the impossibility and the world longest quartz-rich ridge. It is destined for us not to go G-Hill when we are already at that area but just couldn't find the entrance. So, after some considerations, we are going to challenge Bukit Tabur!

Well, get ready with a bucket of popcorn and a glass of pepsi. You gonna watch the slideshow of the whole event FOC~ Part 1 of the journey:
