Stormy Hike at Mount Marami

August 2018  | Mount Marami Maragondon, Cavite

Together with my two friends, one rainy Saturday, we decided to hike Mount Marami.

It may be a not so good decision but we still went for it.

At 5 am, we rode a bus at the Pasay Coastal going to Ternate, Cavite.

Upon reaching the town of Maragondon, we rode a tricycle going to Mount Marami jump off.

We started the hike at 7 am.

It was a long walk with some river crossings going to the summit.

It was raining occasionally and we had a lot of resting time so it took us almost four hours to reach the summit.

Upon reaching the summit, strong winds and rain welcomed us. There was also no clearing so we didn’t see any view from top.

We tried to wait but we really need to go down before dark reach us along the way.

Maybe we’ll try to get back here sometime.

As expected because of our low phasing and muddy trail, we got back to the jump off area at past 8 pm.

Our knees were trembling and we also had a lot of muscle pain the day after the hike.

There’s really a storm according to the news for the following day.

This hike was really not advisable that day but still we surely had fun!
