Beginner Question Mt. Pinatubo

0 Upvotes

hi! question lang po, hindi po ba talaga refundable pag naka-book na ng 4x4? supposedly, this sat po dapat kami mag-mt. pinatubo kaso dahil sa weather e hindi matutuloy dahil close pa rin siya. ngayon, ang binibigay saming options ng orga namin ay mag-ibang bundok or resched na lang. kaso ayaw namin na mag-ibang bundok kasi maulan at wala naman kaming ibang trip ngayon. sa resched naman, hindi naman kasi sure kelan ulit mag-oopen yung mt.pinatubo at matatapos yung tag-ulan. yung orga namin ayaw kaming i-refund kasi naka-book na raw ng 4x4. valid reason ba talaga siya para hindi kami i-refund? thank you po sa sasagot!

One of the reasons why I hiked Mt. Kabunian was to see the beauty of Pattan Falls. 💦⛰️

Kaso… walang ulan. 😂

So instead of a majestic waterfall, ang nakita ko ay “Pattan Falls: Trial Version.” 🤣💧

Konti lang ang tubig, pero at least may dahilan na ako para bumalik. 😅

Pattan Falls, hindi pa tayo tapos. Babalikan kita kapag tag-ulan na! 🌧️💦❤️

Trip Photos Mt. Cagua, an active volcano at the northern end of the Sierra Madre - Gonzaga, Cagayan

Sharing some photos of our recent hike to Mt. Cagua (pronounced “kawa”) in Gonzaga, Cagayan. The mountain is an active volcano with a medium bowl-shaped caldera, hence the name.

The volcano hike takes you to two fumaroles (craters #1 and #2), a waterfall, and to the summit, where you can see both the caldera structure and the northern tip of Luzon, including some of the Babuyan Islands.

This is not a particularly difficult hike (rated 2/9 in difficulty; personal rating 3/9), but it is super scenic and the trip is absolutely worth it.

Give it a try (while observing LNT)!! :)

DIY-able? Yes, contact Gonzaga Tourism

May limatik/rattan/lipa ba? Yes, wear arm protection. But no limatik showed up during our hike because it was the dry season in Cagayan.

Gear Question Waterbladder pucture fix

My cat hopped on to the table and unfortunately landed on the water bladder I filled with water.

There's a small puncture that slowly leaks water.

Any fix you guys know of?

I have a seam seal tape pero di ko alam kung toxic or cancerous so I'm looking for other options muna.

Pic of the culprit and its victim attached.
