My first ever major climb...and I frakkin survived!! All I have to say is never underestimate a mountain.
The only hike I have ever done in my life is Mt. Pinatubo, it was a 2 hour hike going to the crater and another 2 hours going back. It was definitely hard, since you had to traverse in sand like terrain which made walking really hard (it's hard to walk in the dessert, imagine your feet sinking into the sand with every step you take).
But just like every hike, reaching the summit was as rewarding as getting your very first medal in school. I had cuts and bruises all over because I was wearing the wrong hiking clothes and I had cramps on the way. I'm no mountaineer but I'd really like to climb another one soon.
Here are some of the photos from the trip. Ofcourse, each hike is super special if you do it with your friends :)
(sorry couldn't upload high res photos since they took forever to upload ;) )
