Hike and Bat Watching

[BUSHWHACKER]

Several of us are gonna hike up Kao Nang Phanturat on Friday and then go watch the bats.

If you want to join us meet at PTT near the 201km marker 5 km north of the Cha Am traffic light at 3:30pm. If you know the park, just go there and we will head up at 4.

After the hike and the bat watching we'll go and eat some dead chicken and maybe have a Leo near the 195km marker on Petchkasem.



Please let me know if you intend to join us.

Hey Bushwhacker, people may be interested to know:

How long is the hike?
How strenuous (steep or treacherous) is the hiking terrain?

Thanks!

This is going to be a pretty easy hike of around 2 hours. It is going to be uphill though.

Optimitsts versus pessimists: It's gonna be 50% downhill stroll.
Yep, two hours + a bit more for hanging out and taking photos from some of the great view points along the way. Might see some monkeys and will probably see some deer.

According to the CDC "Only three human cases of Hendra virus disease have been recognized."

This won't be keeping me up at night.
