Climbed Mount Kinabalu yesterday. Wore Cardinals gear on the way down.

The climb.
Peak at 4095m (13435 ft)
Started at mountain gate at 1750m.
7 hours up to basecamp at 3278m - 6,5km climb/1500 altitude meter.
Rest and Sleep
6 hours from basecamp to peak and back. 2km climb/900m altitude
6 hours from Basecamp down to mountain gate pass.

36 hours total with stay at base camp
35000 steps.

Picture taken on the descent in light rain - about 3 hours before finishing.

I had about 8% energy left here. Ran out of energy with about 1,5km left. Luckily the easiest part where you could trek and didn’t have to climb about half the time.

Bach, full credit my brother. That's an amazing feat as far as I'm concerned.
