And just to get a better idea of Langgawisan, here are some photos of our trip there. Have fun and ponder on what the people are standing up for.

The mode of transportation is called a “skylab”, a throwback from the “Skylab” of the 1970s because of the side extensions  attached to the single motorcycle to serve as passenger seats.

Downed trees are turned into lumber. How many trees? No one is saying.

Work continues as the road is targetted to reach Langgawisan by middle of this year.

Yes, it’s quite a long walk.
