Hi all,
Lepas seminggu balik dari PITC baru ade mase nak bukak blog ni..this entry nk cite plak pasal our journey ke PITC..Last week (16-19 Feb)our team of 8 went to PITC. The main goal is to assess damaged that has been done to our plots due to the logging. Kiranya nk tengok berapa teruk plot dan transect ktorang rosak akibat pembalakan so boleh stratergize pe yg ptot buat tuk next assessment.

Fog greeted our arrival. Logs awaiting for transfer

In total, we got 24 plots throughout 200 ha of area..Lepas 2 tahun xmasuk hutan ni, the differences is very shocking. We can't even recognize the area. Our aim to visit all 24 plots looks very much impossible. Took us 1 hour to find our first plot..OMG..musnah hutan kesayangan ku..After a while, baru la bering betol balik n works become faster..On the first day, we decided to join forces..sebab not really clear on what we need to access. By 5pm, only 10 plots accessed and we went back for another adventure the next day..

| Serious discussion |

On second day, we split into 2 groups. Each group assess 7 plots. I team up with Dzamir, Rozaimi, Ezu n Agah (Our reliable orang asli). we assess plot 1,13,14,15,16,17 and 18..Took us 5 hours to access all that. Anyway, enjoy pictures from our trip below.Photo credit to Ezu..

| Melepaskan lelah setelah seharian mendaki.. |
In conclusion, most of our plots are damaged and plot team need to go back and repair the plots before our assessment in April :-)
