From here we have to walk to footstep of the mountain where it took us 2 hours. From the footstep we have to climb Teman Bunga. At Teman Bunga we took a rest for drink and food. We left our things at Taman Bunga and start climbing to Mt Trusmadi summit where the last team member reach the summit @16:25hrs. It took us 8 hours to reach summit. We spend 30 mins on the summit of the mountain, unlucky day for us because it was raining, thick foggy and windy.
We start descending @17:00hrs where it start dark soon. At the middle of the jungle after Taman Bunga we encounter heavy rain and thunder. We have to continued walking. After 5 hours walking our torchlight became dimer and dimer, this make us horrible, so we have to walk in line because of darkness. After 16hrs walking, we manage to arrived at the end of the logging road where 3 hilux still waiting for us, so thanks to the drivers that they still waiting for us until @02:00hrs. While packing to the hilux and put the light on, everybody panic because litches still attached to our body and blood stain everyway. After everybody clean from litches we start proceeding TVRC through the muddy logging road. From TVRC we used our own transportation drive to Keningau where stay at Hotel Perkasa. We back home at the same day after 6 hours sleep at the hotel.
