It was a tough first to find! after nearly 3 years, the cache was finally found. Its a bit moldy which can be expected, so i didn't write anything on it. The joy of standing on the Nanhu Big Mountain with the cache in hand was just enough. The weather was great for us, plenty views of nearby mountains, I will definitely be back!
Well, I want to express my appreciate for hkw0704's accompany on the trip in the first. He drives quite well (maybe a little bit fast
) ,helps, and teaches me a bunch in the 2 days.
We plan the trip since last year. But it delays for many times because of typhoons. Furthermore, 4-day trip is not easy to go for a normal job worker. We are only 2 this time.
I walked and set my backpack up correctly, so I felt better than that on Jia-Lou. But the 13 kilogram luggage still hurt my shoulder and back.
We climb for 11.7 km to Yun-Lin Hut then give up. That's because I felt nervous when we were in the dark after 18:00 in the first day. And we both agreed that we can climb up to the peak, but we will be too exhuasted to go down.
I think that porter is the key to the success for a citizen.
This is the toughest trip I've ever had. We even climb down from a vertical cliff!!! And my clothes and hair are so smelly![xx(] Oh......man, as my old saying, "the trip rjt set is always unforgetable.

Well, I totally forget about this cache before rjt's log [B)] Just like rjt's log, we have no many chances to commune with this cache, so we went firm for it even though nobody want to go with us. I was tired with my 21kg backpack, that is a new personal record of mine, so I climbed up very slow on the steep trail just like a snail, I felt really sorry to rjt for that. So far, that is the most toughest climb I had, it kicked Hehung West Peak easily, however, at least I've tried it, I've ever seen Nanhu Big Mountain with my own eyes, she is a really beautiful mountain even we can not reach her. I had many new experiences in the past two days trip, rjt is a trustworthy partner indeed, really unforgetable!
