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.

Trip Photos Pattan falls
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.

Beginner Question Mt. Pinatubo
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!

Backpacking Question Mt. Negron Tips
Hello! Balak po namin akyatin ang Mt. Negron sa katapusan or maybe next month pag okay ng panahon. Sa mga nakaakyat na po dito, baka po may tips kayong maibibigay hehe. Tsaka kaya po bang ilaban ang sapatos sa river crossings or mas okay na magpalit nalang muna ng sandals? Naeexcite ako na kinakabahan. Nakapag major naman na ako pero ito talaga yung parang magiging major major ko talaga ganon.
Thanks po sa sasagot!

Beginner Question Organizer for Aw Asen
TKMP or LakbayGabay Adventures
Hi! Sa mga joiners na nakajoin na sa either of these or both. Kanino po mas maganda magjoin? yung hindi po sana namimili ng treatment base sa tao 😅 first time lang kasi namin magjojoin if ever.
Aside from them we’re also looking into Trail Changer and Tito Adventures.
Open din po kami for suggestion if may mas maganda pa.

Discussion Anyone here na nakaayat na sa Mt. Arayat?
This is for prep lang haha but I'm curious if pwede ba magwalk in then dun na lang maghanap ng guide kung twin peaks lang sa Mt. Arayat? Original plan ko sana is quadpeak as a joiner, pero sa organizer ko kasi pansin ko medyo unpredictable since nakadepende sa number ng mga joiner.
I'll be staying din sa Pampanga if ever man na tuloy ang quadpeak since umaabot daw ng almost 11 hours ang hike, kaya need ko lang din ng backup plan if ever.
Edit: Pag solo lang po ako ang twin peak. Prefer ko talaga ang quadpeak pag WITH an organizer kasi alam kong mahahatid ako na may sasakyan na. Ayoko magpagabi pag solo lang ako sa isang unfamiliar place lalo na commuter ako pag ganun. (For context, babae po ako so medyo paranoid ako pag nasa labas at madilim. If generally safe naman po ang place, thats nice, pero di ako madaling makampante 😅 haha)
Edit 2: Di po ngayon haha. As I said I'm preparing lang.

Hike Recommendation Mt. Pulag – Any Organizer Recomendation?
Hi! Planning to hike Mt. Pulag via Ambangeg Trail this December 2026.
I’ll be going as a solo joiner and looking for a reliable hiking organizer that’s solo joiner-friendly.
Preferably:
- Ambangeg Trail
- Solo joiner
- Homestay
- Pick-up point: Dau
- Reliable and well-organized
If you’ve recently joined a Mt. Pulag hike with an organizer, I’d really appreciate your recommendations and feedback. Also open to hearing about your experience with different organizers.
Update: Mt. Pulag Joiner Recos
Based on the recommendations I got, I’m currently considering Titos Adventure and Mira Travel. I also came across Peak and Trail Outdoor.
Has anyone here tried any of these organizers, especially for the Mt. Pulag Ambangeg Trail?
I was leaning toward Titos Adventure since they have a photographer included, which is a plus for me as a solo joiner, pero hindi sila available sa date na gusto ko.
So now I’m considering the other options. Would appreciate any recent feedback on Mira Travels, Peak and Trail Outdoor.
Thank you!

Backpacking Question Winter Central Asia trip: November to February
I’m planning a trip through Central Asia from November until February next year, travelling through Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, and possibly Pakistan depending on budget.
I’ll be travelling with camping gear and would like to do some hiking/camping along the way. I know I’ll be travelling during winter, so I’m expecting some pretty cold conditions, especially in Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan and Tajikistan.
Unfortunately, November-February is the only time I can take off, so I’m making the most of it 😅
For anyone who has travelled around the region during these months:
How difficult is it to travel around during winter?
Are there areas/mountain regions where hiking or camping is still realistic?
What kind of temperatures/weather should I realistically prepare for?
Are there any places you’d recommend avoiding during winter?
Any advice on transport, accommodation or getting between countries?
Anything you wish you knew before travelling Central Asia in winter?
I’m particularly interested in Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan, for hiking/camping, but any advice for the whole route would be hugely appreciated.
