Kadlagan-TUKAD KAN MGA ORAGGON sa MT.ISAROG. SEPT.27-28,2008

September 15, 2008

 

Mt. Isarog in the province of Camarines Sur is highest forested mountain of southern Luzon, rising 1,966 meters above sea level. Known to be an inactive volcano. Once you get to one of its summit,you will be rewarded with a view of other Bikol volcanoes like Mt. Mayon. It is a home to many endangered plants, birds and animals that can only be found in the South Luzon region. The Southern Luzon cloud rat is native to Mt. Isarog and the largest flower in the world known as Rafflesia. Pitcher plants and wild orchids are abundant in higher elevation of the mountain. Wild boars,monkeys, wildcats and numerous species of lizards are still numerous in the parks. It has numerous streams and rivers that waters the numerous waterfalls. There are famous water falls like Malabsay, Nabuntulan, and Falls within Consocep Mountain Resort. Plenty awaits to be discovered. Mt. Isarog is now a protected area with strict regulations for appropriate management and preservation of its rich and diverse plants and ecosystem.
 For 11 years from its opening, Kadlagan organized 1 to 2 climb annually through the Patag-patag trail. It remain as dense,clean and the only dirt that can be found along the trail are the leftovers or wastes of monkeys and wild boars. The scavenging wild boars are the ones who are erasing the trail. Typhoon Reming of 2006 destroyed most of the habitat(trees)at the said trail. Nevertheless, Mt. Isarog throught Patag-patag trail is still one of the  major climb destination of Bikol of the Mountaineers. Kadlagan staff bring them to the peak of Mt. Isarog successfully, satisfied,safe and happy.
