3 people were very very excited for this trip, namely: I, Memet, and Boleng. After a long discourse to go to Mount Kerinci end of this discourse can be realized.
Overview of Mount Kerinci, which is located on Mount Kerinci Regency Kayu. Kerinci - Jambi is the highest mountain in Sumatra with a crater type strato (still active and has a crater of 400 x 120 meters and contains green water) included in the Kerinci Seblat National Park (TNKS) area of 1,484,650 hectares located in four provinces, in part a large national park located in Jambi, Including Mount Kerinci volcano is still active, with an altitude of 3805 masl. The mountain is the highest mountain in Indonesia beyond the mountains of Irian Jaya. East of the mountain there is Lake Bento, the highest clear watery swamps in Sumatra. Behind him there is a crater of Mount Seven with a very beautiful almost untouched. In the middle of the park there are gaps sungaipenuh valley city, coffee plantations,and lake Kerinci.Days Friday, July 1, 2011 is the beginning of our journey to Mount Kerinci, Our journey from Bandung to the location of Mount Kerinci terbiang fairly smoothly, although the ROP trip was little changed, because when we left the train in Lampung to go to Palembang.Here's our route to get to G. Kerinci:
- Bandung - Port Merak (bus)
- Port Merak - Lampung (ferry)
- Lampung - Palembang (railway)
- Palembang - Jambi (bus)
- Jambi - Sungai Penuh (travel)
- Sungai Penuh - Kersik Tuo (public transportation).
From the journey we agreed to purchase supplies / logistics market in Sungai Penuh, when the early reaches of the Sungai Penuh, we were stunned to see the beauty of Lake Kerinci is very, very beautiful. Because the lake is so vast and magnificent, but unfortunately we did not stop to enjoy its beauty more closely.
When finished buying our logistics directly went to Monument Tigers. Tiger is a monument to be our starting point toward the door of the jungle, because the Tigers until the door between the monument there is no jungle villages - villages or settlements, only plantations and fields - fields of the population. From Monument Tigers we can see the beauty of Mount Kerinci from a distance.
Upon arriving there, we were a little laugh, especially the natives of Sumatra Boleng because in areas where the majority of the population are indigenous people of Java, so that any language using the Java language. Cows - cows there are also very rare, because the color of his skin that diverse.
Distance from Monument Tiger Woods until the door was pretty far, about - about 3-4 miles, we decided to walk to reach the door of the jungle while hoping there tebengan truck carrying vegetables in order to save power before starting the ascent.Soon we were walking and arrived at the front door of the jungle. The starting point of our ascent is located at an altitude of 1800 mdpl, meant to be topped mountain we must climb as high as 2000mdpl again. When I got there it was very late, at 15.30 pm. because the day has been very afternoon we decided to start entering the forest and if it finds the airy little flat land that we immediately set up camp for the night.
Shortly after walking about half an hour we finally arrived in the post 1. Heading 1 is the first place we stay when climbing the highest volcano in Indonesia, the conditions in the post a very very feasible to set up camp, because there has been provided the foundation of a thatched cottage which is still very well maintained. Immediately, we took a thump and set it up. Dum finished in our established immediately went looking for wood to make fires at night. In the evening while warming themselves beside the fire we started to plan the climb briefing tomorrow.
Day began to change, the morning began to come shining forest we stopped, scenery jumper tree monkey, black squirrels and birds can not be a view that we acuhi. It was cold that morning and even during sleep I often wake up because of cold temperatures at night.
Our worry over water sources dry, because when we were coming here, the locals told us that here was almost a month does not rain. So we divide the tasks, and Memet I took water, and cook boleng. Not thought to take my water and Memet have to go back down to the door of the jungle, not only it turns out after asking the farmer to take our water has to cross a large field and entered the forest again and then down to lembahan. "Wahhhh warm up before climbing really bad" I said to myself.
2 hours more we arrived back at the post 1. Upon arrival we immediately ate boleng cuisine. After our meal before packing, do not forget to sort out the luggage pick what you need in Hide. Once everything is settled we started looking for a place to pile stuff - our stuff, not long after all was beresss then we begin the journey.Around 09.00 we started our journey to the post 2.
Only about 5 minutes walk arrived - arrived Memet suffered cramps in the legs, probably because when you take away the water which is very very far away, and added before starting the climb he did not warm up. So was forced to-2 day trip we went very very slow.We arrived in the mail 2 at 10.00. in post 2 we took a break to document where the heading 2. Conditions in post 2 just a plain field open to the sky is quite feasible to be made in place to set up camp. When finished documenting the post 2 we continue tracking to get to the next post. When traveling, Memet foot conditions do not heal, so that the movement is still the same way as before.
At 11:00 we arrive in the mail 3, the same as in the previous post we rested for a moment to document the post 3. Condition 3 is almost the same post with the conditions in post 1, there is also a cottage here. Once finished we went back to document the journey, the condition of foot cramps Memet fact still remains, so the movement is still the same way as before. Time has shown at 12.00, still not seeing the next post, we finally decided to find a place a little roomy for lunch.
After a long walk, about - about 15:00 pm we finally arrived at the shelter first. On arrival there we met with people who are down, they're taking a break. Since conditions Memet feet that do not heal, finally we decided to spend the night in a shelter this.
Altitude at this shelter a 2500mdpl. In a shelter is very typical, here we can see the big tree in the middle of a field soil, Shelter is a place to rest only his iron frame alone. This location is an open field and can look towards the village of grit Tuo.
After dum founded, as usual we immediately went to find wood. wood has been collected, but the new show at 16.00, while waiting for dinner time we relax, unexpectedly after looking to the right and left, we went back to see black squirrels and birds that we encountered in the first post this morning.
It was getting dark, the cold winds began slamming into our skin. Immediately, we move closer to the fire to warm themselves.
According to the info we can travel only 2 went to the shelter, then to the shelter three, after that trip immediately peaked. To spend the night in shelters 3 according to the info that we can be too risky, because if the dum less powerful, can - can we fly in the wind dum. Finally we decided to take a rest in shelter 2, and then rested, and at night we were tracking to the top to see the panorama of sunrise from the highest volcano in Indonesia this.
Cold temperatures we wake in the morning, fortunately the fire was still burning at the time.About - about the time when it is at 07.00 back I saw a black squirrel and a bird perched on a branch beside us dum.
Finished breakfast we start packing and start the journey back, target tracking today just to shelter 2, from the info we can from shelter to shelter 2 1 takes 4 hours.
Kira - 09:00 o'clock we continued our journey, this day trip faster than yesterday, because Memet foot condition was already improving. But this time around the track track track starts to look ferocity, is almost the tracks on a ladder through knee-high and thigh, fortunately cramps Memet not recur. After a 3 hour drive we finally arrived at the shelter 2.
The wind in the shelter 2 is true - really puncture the skin, at the height of this shelter right 3000mdpl. Place to set up camp located on the left, about - about walking down 10 meters then we arrive at the camp. Place of camp at the shelter two really wide, plus the existing shelter is the foundation of iron that can be used as a divider between dum. We can also provide water for the shelter of this, suppose - suppose to walk a bit towards lembahan we can find the river.
Dum has been established, the food was already ready to eat, we eat it with gusto immediately. because tonight we will be tracking the night, then from noon until late afternoon we took a break.
Once done - fine dinner, we were immediately packing and start climbing. Exactly at 22:00 we started the journey summit, this time it was crazy tracks, two tracks from shelter to shelter these three tracks really - really vicious, the stairs are really - really high, not infrequently there ladder which reached our chest, really overwhelmed us face this track,so its okay if we walk in the daytime, it is definitely very BT we see a truly mengganaskan tracking path.
An hour later we had arrived at the shelter 3. As high as 3351 this place is the boundary between forest vegetation and sand - sand, here there is a bulletin board that contains the prohibition to make new routes and information about the trajectory of sand and rock please be careful. Extensive field. Here could set up a tent as long as you meet the requirements for the tent was set up here, because here the wind was blowing pretty hard and cold temperatures. According to information, we can find water that is located one the left side when facing the ridge to the summit. From the shelter of this roof of the world can look very clear, the moon and stars into drugs when tracking our fatigue earlier. It was wonderful to see the night sky, the camera unfortunately we were not able to capture the beauty of the sky at that time. In this shelter pucak Kerinci can already be seen. Yahhh maximum of 2-3 hours is about - think it is up to pucak. But because the time is still showing at 23:00 we started the journey to the top with very slow.
Next to the track to the top of the sand, rock rock. Its path like a rat lines, whose land in, like a big ditch. Often we move - moving point as a dead end track (stuck). Here we must be very berekstra be - careful because the track is slippery due to sand, so that we can easily slip coupled with the advent of fog coming, to buy time while we were tracking only loss has been felt very cold.
When getting closer to the top of our hanyaa even walk 5 minutes, then rested her to 30 minutes. Wahhhh rasanyaaaaa tortured. At the height of 3600an masl we decided to stop because if you go will probably be very dangerous because of the smell of sulfur fumes are getting sharper. In added time at that time still show at 2:30.
While waiting for the sunrise, we took refuge in the course of a large curving ditch to avoid the gusts of wind. Here we issued trangia to make hot coffee, hot water taste so delicious that I drank at that time, plus it's very beautiful scenery, views of a collection - a collection of city lights to be distant - far off when it looks like a city of islands. Visible far in the sky, visible lightning that makes us spellbound. Views of the night when it seemed perfect because it added a very clear view of sky. Wow That's right - when it's really beautiful star, as often times we see a shooting star, then we even had time to start making constellation constellations. Ekekek ...
Because the air is very cold, we also had a chance to sleep. But soon we were asleep immediately woke up very, very cold temperatures. Even had I repeatedly saw the Memet body vibrate - vibrate cold. Hahaha ...
It was 4:30 already beginning to look a bluish sky-blue tuaan. We decided to move to continue the journey culminated. With the body vibrate - vibrate cold I start to walk step by step, we are running very very careful - careful because the way the flatter but still uphill.
1 hour walk we arrived at the highest volcanic peak in Indonesia this. Gusts of cold wind and tiredness disappear arrived - arrived. Landscape became a sea of clouds early scene that looks very beautiful.
Kerinci summit marked with fluttering red and white flag that is on iron poles firmly embedded. Thankful trip run very smoothly. Visible in the distance mountain views 7 and hills - the hills around the peak of the highest volcano in Indonesia that. Active crater was seen still spewing smoke - smoke sulfur, which is not necessarily how thick, sometimes a lot and thick, sometimes too little and thin. However it is very unfortunate that we dreamed of scenery sunrise hindered by thick fog and clouds. Haduhhhhh ... but so be it lah ... views of the sea of clouds, sky view horizontally, view of lake Kerinci from a distance, and views of mountain scenery sunrise 7 fairly treat the time. Memet was quickly he immediately bertayamum and praying at the top of the highest volcano in Indonesia that.
It's almost 3 hours we document the beautiful scenery on the highest mountain peak. we await the views of the Indian Ocean according to the information can be seen at the top of this mountain. However, because of thick smoke clouds and sulfur dream has finally foundered. Yahhh what can make ... beautiful scenery it makes me feel at home, and want to linger - long there, but due to extremely cold temperatures, plus the hunger craze finally we decided to go down.
The trip down went without a hitch, as we go down a big ditch, rock rock, and sand that is the path the track looks very clear, very beautiful scenery ... until finally we passed the monument yudha, at night we did not see this monument, it is because yesterday we were walking at night, so it is reasonable if not noticed.
When passing lane 3 shelters to shelter 2 (where we had left the goods), we were mesmerized by the sight line that looks like a hallway. "Waoooooooow" I thought.
We decided to spend the night again in the post 1. Because the condition of the body who is also the day tired already getting dark.
We really enjoyed the trip at that time, dense forests, scenery animals - animals that are often encountered, it is very impressive to be on our way, plus we climb this mountain's highest volcano in Indonesia. Hehehe ... But unfortunately in Mount Kerinci was not there that sells souvenirs - souvenirs and accessories, so we left the mountain without hands fruits such as clothes, stickers, and bracelets - bracelets.
Glad to be your place to enjoy the beauty of Mount Kerinci
Hopefully still maintained and preserved beauty.
