For my 2012 Holy Week trip, I once again joined my HLGG friends on a mountaineering/outreach activity, this time in Occidental Mindoro. The first phase of the trip was a gift-giving activity of school supplies and flip-flops for Mangyan schoolchildren. The Mangyan settlement area is located in Sitio Tamisan, and this in turn is located within the much larger Mts. Iglit-Baco National Park.
To get to Sitio Tamisan, we had to endure a 45-minute trek on rolling terrain under the blazing sun.
And crossed this steel hanging bridge before finally reaching the settlement area on the other side:
I’ll be blogging about this after I’m done with the Iloilo-Guimaras series. Stay tuned!
