Default Outing to Genting Highlands

Dear members,

I will be organising a trip to Genting Highlands this Sunday, 1 March 2009 to see wild Nepenthes. There are N. sanguinea, N. macfarlanei, N. ramispina and some hybrids between these 3 species in this location. It is an easy walk of about 200 meters and the terrain is leveled. So anyone can make it as it is an easy walk. On top of that you get to enjoy the nice cool air of Genting Highlands. The drive up Genting from our meeting point in Desa Aman Puri is about 40 minutes.

Just a reminder on some things that you should bring/wear:
- Bring loads of water
- Wear long pants
- Wear comfortable walking shoes
- Bring extra t-shirt if you want to be dry
- Camera
- Rain coat/umbrella in case it rains and you do not want to get wet
- Axe/knives/swords/parang/spear... just kidding! It's a safe trip.

Some guidelines:
- Please do not poach the plants during/after the trip
- Please do not advertise the location to others
- For those below 16 years, please get consent from your parents. Better if your parents can be there

"Explore, enjoy and protect the planet."

Details:
- Date: Sunday, 1 March 09
- Start Journey to Genting: 1pm sharp
- Meeting Location: Desa Aman Puri Shell station / Mc Donalds
- Back Home: evening approximately 6-7 pm
- Might plan dinner if the majority wants to. Dinner will be at your own expense

Ken, it's a mix, but more open spaces. If time and weather permits, we will go to other locations in Genting.
