Mt. Batulao in Nasugbu, Batangas is just 811 MASL. Yes, it’s
just a small mountain. A 2-hour trek is enough to reach its summit. But 2 hours
is never enough to feel and savor the wonders of this mountain.
This mountain shocked every mountaineer when it claimed a
climber’s (or a picnicker’s) life early 2012. That was actually the first time
I heard of this mountain. And I was really curious about it. Known to be very
steep and rocky, a mountain lover like me was really challenged to experience its tricky trails.
