I will drive from the Haishan MRT exit 2 on blue line at 8:00 morning so we can get started early. We will only fit 4 more in car, bringing total to 7. If you do not want to ride in a small car with strangers for and hour, maybe this is not the hike for you. If you have your own transport and would like to come, please coordinate with me to try and join.
If you get tired going up Elephant mountain and need to stop... this is probably not the hike for you.
Cancellation due to Emergencies etc. by 7:00 morning on that day. Rain would be most likely reason for cancellation.
