Hello, I'm back after a long absence due to my busy running schedule. Today, I have another interesting trip to present to you: "Phu Mieng" or as many people say, "Phu Mieng won't die, you know". On this trip, I had the opportunity to travel with the page of Tum, or "The World of Travelers". I must say, this guy is a real wilderness chef, the food is delicious. Let's get down to business. We started our journey from Bangkok and arrived in Uttaradit at 4 am. We rested and in the morning we packed our things, ate breakfast, and prepared to meet what we wanted: 8 slopes and 4 cliffs.

This is our team who shared the same fate in this mission. Let me tell you, this trip was intense and wet. After taking photos, we started our journey. For this trip, I'll let the pictures tell the story.

This is the starting point of our trip. We were mentally prepared to get soaked, bleed, and have our knees destroyed. But we told ourselves that we were here to practice for trail running. Let's start our journey together.

"Pu," our park ranger, was fantastic. He took great care of us throughout the trip. He has a wonderful personality, I must say.

This trip will be a bit green and white, just a heads up.

"P' ต่อ" is the strongest in our trip, always leading the way.

The initial section of the trail is relatively easy, allowing for a leisurely start.

Alternating between crossing the water and entering the forest, they remained calm and collected.

"Brother Steve" also kept walking, we saw him again after a short while. They are probably waiting at the camp now.

This is "Brother On, also known as Super Axe Slasher." He's a laid-back guy who takes things at his own pace, but he has a few tricks up his sleeve.

"Joe" told me that the first trip was so easy that his friend decided to hop on a car. I'm also a fan of taking it easy, haha.

After a short walk, we reached the first spot. The beauty in the picture was different from the real thing.

Our model.

Our first break, before the long stretch (or not), we rested for a bit and then continued walking.

This is it, the real adventure is coming. Flat road? Ha, stop dreaming. (Let's start with hill 1)

Joe started having symptoms for a while, and he threw away his bag. Hehe, let Poo carry it instead because he couldn't handle the cramps. He said the tire was flat, so he became the last student in the classroom.

Lushness of the Forest in the Rainy Season

This phrase evokes the vibrant and abundant life that flourishes in the forest during the rainy season. The imagery suggests a verdant landscape teeming with plant and animal life, revitalized by the nourishing rains.

Here are some possible translations, depending on the desired level of formality and context:

• Formal: The lushness of the forest during the rainy season.
• Informal: The forest is bursting with life in the rainy season.
• Figurative: The rainy season transforms the forest into a verdant paradise.

The specific translation will depend on the intended audience and the overall tone of the writing.

"Tippy" is a seasoned trail runner and wilderness enthusiast, known for her remarkable resilience and endurance.

And we have come to

(Hill 3, as the name suggests)

"Chill" Sister Uum

"Brother Mack," a young man from the south, was part of the traveling group.

The mood shifted as the miles passed, the engine cooling as they set off again.

The admin is standing here taking pictures of the little snake.

Hike, take photos, and find a signal to send news home on the way to the 4-hour hill.

Be extremely cautious here, as it is very slippery. We have now arrived.

Steve and I, who came with P'Toh, will have beautiful photos like this. (I borrowed P'Toh's photos because I was late and didn't have any with me.)

Translation:

This place has many levels. The top is the camp where we will stay. The admin told us that it was just a little further to the only water crossing. So we took off our shoes for a little while longer to get there. Wow, I was tricked. It was about 500 meters + steep + leeches + cramps.

Not only me, but also P'On and the camp were affected.

Tonight, we will be staying at "Wild Persimmon Grove", where there is a stream flowing through, so we can take a bath.

The tent was set up, we showered, and then gathered to eat. The food was delicious and we finished everything. It rained and we all got soaked.

Day 2: Waking Up to Responsibilities and Preparing for Camp 2

The second day began with a wake-up call to fulfill personal responsibilities and prepare for the journey to Camp 2.

Boiling water in a bamboo tube is a fragrant and delicious experience.

Our chefs are highly skilled.

Who says living in the forest means going hungry? There's wonton noodles here. Let's have some.

And we started our journey from the camp. Today's path may not be as smooth as yesterday's. Let's see.

And we met "Tak Tong".

Walking and resting, we eventually arrived. We then encountered Joe, who had set off much earlier, amidst the thick fog.

Carry your own things today. Wow, your body has adjusted.

Translation:

The climb was truly challenging, even for experienced hikers. A misstep could easily lead to a knee injury. After a while, we reached a spot with phone signal, allowing us to contact our families. The weather was unpredictable, with alternating periods of sunshine and cloud cover.

And soon it will arrive.

Hill 6

This is a striking example of contrasting colors. Nature is truly beautiful, but it can also be harsh.

From Hill 6 to Hill 7 is not a long distance, and our camp is located on Hill 7.

Our presenter, Steve, is the one and only.

Upon arrival, we immediately set up our tents. The wind was extremely strong, and the rain came and went. The sky was sometimes clear, sometimes not. (I had already accepted that this was how it would be.)

The weather up here is like this.

Translation:

This is my own tent. In front of it, there's a cliff. It fluttered all night. I slept alone, wondering if I would fly away with the tent. Then, we started our journey to the top of Phu Mieng, the 4 cliffs that they mentioned. We prepared our cameras and raincoats (we were definitely going to get wet), and we set off for Hill 8 first.

I felt it from the moment I started walking up, it was the steepest climb ever.

The trail was a bit rough, with our seniors, P'Tor, P'Fon, and P'Ged, already ahead of us. We, the three of us, followed closely behind.

This event features a cameo appearance by "Aon Fah Pid" or "Man in the Mist," who has already participated in several trips. Let's take a look at some pictures from the journey to the summit.

And we have arrived.

Cliff 1: Cliff of Joy

Translation:

It wasn't worth bringing the camera. It's a huge burden, and a phone would have been enough. Besides, there are no more pictures of the path from this cliff onwards because it rained constantly. We relied on the cameras of other hikers.

Red Cliff 2

Brother, we're going to play MV upstairs. I told you you're hardcore.

Cliff 3: Mist Viewing Cliff

This section is particularly slippery and rocky, with strong winds. Be cautious.

Translation:

No text provided for translation.

The elder sisters, Ged and Fon, are the ones who will be there. They will be a bit whiter.

We came with the man in the fog. I'll tell "Brother On" myself, who else would it be?

Standing in the wind, letting the mist playfully kick my face, showing off the Royal Thai Army boots. The soles are pretty good, hehe.

Cliff 4: Cliff of Courage

Every cliff was white and slippery. I thought to myself that if the sky cleared, it would be beautiful.

Carrying another sign

And we conquered "Yod Phu Mieng...not dying, huh". And then a big storm came with a strong wind. What are you waiting for? But when it came down, it was really hot, I tell you. The camera I brought was a burden. I couldn't get down in time with the first group. I sat down and hid behind a tree. It's crazy how scary nature can be. ((Thinking to myself)) So I took out my phone to take a picture.

Unable to bear it any longer, we charged forward, carefully supporting ourselves with the rocks as we slid down to the camp. It was a truly unforgettable experience. The wind, rain, and fear were overwhelming, as you can see in the pictures. There were even people keeping score of who slipped the most.

No matter how cruel it is, they still smile and fight. I'm telling you.

On the way to the "Sky After the Rain" camp

The sentence is already in English and does not require translation.

And then left, leaving only the white in front.

After changing clothes and eating at the camp at night, Phi To came to take pictures, and this is what he got.

There are no stars in the sky, at least I can see the stars on the ground.

In the morning, we were excited in the tent where Steve was sleeping next door. He shouted, "Bomb!" We opened the tent to see the fog, which was amazing. We grabbed our cameras and went outside. Alas! The atmosphere was exactly the same as yesterday, completely white.

This morning's breakfast is red pork and crispy pork rice, prepared by our very own chef Tum, the admin.

After sitting down to eat and chat for a while, we all went our separate ways to pack up and prepare to leave. Today was our last day after spending several days resting and recuperating. Nature bid us farewell with this image.

Translation:

We then began our journey back along the same path. The return trip was wet, huh? Hehe, with the day of return, Nilui, go ahead, don't be afraid.

Translation:

On the way back down with Steve and Tum.

The Smurfs' pictures are more beautiful than their friends.

This trip, I didn't bring much camera equipment, mostly just my phone. It was heavy, so I wondered why I even bothered to bring it. As usual, I made new friends on this trip. We all arrived back in Bangkok safely.

Thank you to all the seniors we have met.

Thank you for the beautiful pictures, everyone.

Thank you, world of travelers.

We will meet again on our next trip.
