Projek Benum was first planned on 26 February by me (Mizi) and Apek then invited all Band of Brothers’ member, later confirmed to join including Ferol and Ipin.
It’s difficult to find guide since non of us ever hike there before. I asked Jol, then he told me to call Dr Ramli, who went there few times.
Fast forward, we managed to gather 13 people later became 10 when 3 of them can’t joined last minute. So there we go all 10 gathered at Masjid Sg Chalit on 30th March before 5 am, waiting for 4×4 to pick us up.
Mission to peak was aborted due to trail not clear caused by fallen trees and bushes. Few of us will return for Projek Rentis Benum.
