Datu Umboy's Pamuhat ritual from the Talaandig Tribe where a chicken is sacrificed for the safety of the community and the mountaineers from the enchanted spirits of the mountain. @becomingfilipino

It's an animist x Christian ritual / healing altar. @becomingfilipino This is where we will do a ritual to offer a Chicken for the environment and for the safety of our trek. @becomingfilipino

The ritual place at Datu Ambuy's hut.

Honored to get a happiness headband and a signature SMile signboard photo with Kyle @becomingfilipino

My favorite trail mix with fried mango, m&m, nuts, corniks, cashew, nagaraya

The climb to basecamp takes about one hour or so with stops along the way with @becomingfilipino and Reina
