Uzma's Treasure Hunt + Canopy Walk

How do you do?

Yesterday, my company, decided to have a treasure hunt at FRIM, Kepong. I was reluctant to go, because..well just because. 

But after being "politely" asked by the HR dept, I went anyway. So the plan was to have a treasure hunt, and then up to the canopy walk. The treasure hunt was suppose to be a 1 hour game, but since we started late, it was cut short to 30 minutes, which require us to run around searching for answers. This make us, very very tired to go up the canopy walk. For your info, the canopy walk is up to 1 km above the hill from the visitor centre and the slope is about 45 degrees.

So the treasure hunt was pretty easy, my team won by the way! YEAH! So, all we have to do is run around searching for the floras and faunas, name them and pick up some leaves.

Immediately after the treasure hunt, we are up to the canopy walk, with little time to wait, if we want to get down by lunch time. The hike took about 1 and half hour, for 1 km up the hill. The worst part about the canopy walk is the hiking itself, since the hill slope is about 45 degrees, so you really have to force yourself up there, I suggest you don't overexerted yourself before you hike up, and bring very light items with you. But once you got up to the canopy walk, it was really breathtaking. 

Here are few photos from yesterday event.

half way to the canopy..500m to go

it doesn't look that scary..hehehe

I think the FRIM Rep said, we are about 50-70m above ground.
