Mt. Talinis Adventure





Mt. Talinis Adventure


Four members of ZAFMOS, to include the youngest, John Paul Tuazon made it to Mt. Talinis for its annual climb last Holy Week.

Thanks to the help of experienced guides in the area, trained by the Cuernos de Negros Mountaineering Group.

We found the climb challenging especially for some members, who got sick during the climb. Nevertheless, we did reach the top of the mountains and enjoyed the lake. in the area.

Mt. Talinis, which is in Dumaguete, is one of the most pristine and well preserved mountains we have ever climbed. Although not as high as Kanlaon, or Dulang Dulang and Kitanglad in Mindanao, it has its fair share of challenges especially of aging mountaineers like us.

We enjoyed it. and we looke forward to climbing it again.
