Hong Kong is connected directly by a quick flight to Kota Kinabalu, the capital of the Sabah region of Malaysian Borneo. We went to Borneo two accomplish two things: climb Mount Kinabalu and see an Orangutan. We managed both. First on the list was scaling Southeast Asia's highest peak. Kinabalu rises over the island in an oddly shaped mass of granite and limestone. Climbing starts through tropical rainforest. The first day brings you the the edge of the treeline before summiting early early on day two.

| Still fresh and ready. |

| Making it to hut two in style. |

| On top of the final foothill. |
 |
| A few steps from the final hut can be the worst. |
 |
| Early early. |

| The group made it on top! |
