    On the new year eve, my outdoor friends & I went to search for the path to one of the oldest limestone hills in Sarawak. It's called Gunung Selabur.....the hill which I was searching few weeks ago.

    In this trip, we found the right way to our destination but we failed to reach the summit as it was started to rain in the afternoon.


    The trail to the hill:






    The paddy field. In the background is Gunung Selabur:





    The limestone cliff :







    Gnemaspis kendallii , a species of forest-dwelling gecko.
