Prologue - << Start here

Day 1 - Guardians of the Mountain

Travellers from afar

Warm welcome enveloped in cold cloud

Rice wine and stories of the mountain

Day 2 - In the Footsteps of David Attenborough

Village perched on the mountainside

In search of giants

Day 3 - Vertical Swamps of Giant Carnivorous Plants

Weighing up at the bottom of the mountain

Pelan pelan

Nowhere on Earth more biodiverse

The world's largest carnivorous plant

Swirling clouds of the dead zone

Giant hut in the mist

Sunset above the clouds

Day 4 - Ghosts that dwell the Mist Shrouded Crags

Crowded restaurant at 2:00 AM

Staircase to the checkpoint in the sky

The rocks tried to break my spirit

Mysterious sunrise through piercing wind

Giants petrified in a cocoon of mist

To a well deserved lunch at the bottom
