yes Baguio has a high pollution rate... I may not have the stats but in experience of being there... yes... and I'd say Baguio isn't as cold as it was 15years ago... possibly contributed by less pines now, high smoke emissions of PUVs, and most of the hills of Baguio is no longer a pine forest but a forest of houses...

Malamig sa Mt. apo

Yup, Apo to some is a HE. Pero because of her nurturing nature, providing water and resources to others, I chose to see her as a mother. Umakyat ako last June, sobrang lamig pa din. Went through the Magpet route, took some time, but was well worth it. Was the best route compered to the other beaten tracks.

Bongolanon falls, where you take off from the Magpet route. ang lamig dito kahit summer!!

Nice you conquered APO , Magpet is the easiest route next time try mo Magpet going down to Makilala ang ganda ng mga waterfalls and madaanan mo yung Rizalian community yung maraming unggoy .

btw Bongolanon yan ba yung sa sa Agco river?

Every afternoon or late morning, lagi na lang nagtatago si Apo Sandawa sa mga ulap.
