What's on my mind

Explore Baugo, budlaan falls . . . Transformers: Hunt of the Fallen . . . 7.11.9


“It is revealed that thousands of years before Optimus Prime and the other Transformers arrived on Earth, there was a race of ancient Transformers who scoured the universe looking for Energon sources. Known as the Dynasty of Primes, they used a weapon called the Sun Harvester to drain stars of their energy in order to convert it to Energon and power Cybertron’s AllSpark. The Primes agreed that life-bearing worlds would be spared, but when one brother, who was thereafter dubbed "The Fallen", constructed a Sun Harvester on Earth in 17,000 BCE, the remaining brothers sacrificed their bodies in order to hide the Matrix of Leadership, the key that powers the Sun Harvester, from The Fallen, who swore to seek revenge upon Earth once he found the key.”

In present day, 11th of July 2009, Optimus now joins XSemBros, an organization consisting of x seminarians of Pope John XXIII Seminary and his own team of Autobots—including newcomers Arcee, Sideswipe, Jolt, and the twins Skids and Mudflap hunting down the Fallen. Intelligence reports a spotted Decepticon hiding at the cave of the 3rd falls of Baugo, Budlaan falls.

Objective: Capture the Decepticon and bring it to the exit point. Friendlies will take over from there.

. . . Sam: Bai, d ko ka kuyog ninyo ky klase ko. C Mikaela ra. Kaw na bahala Daks.


Good luck XsemBros and Autobots!!!

Details of the mission:

Baugo, Budlaan Falls

entry point: Baugo Basketball court

exit point: Tops but there’s been a change of plan. Back to Baugo Falls. Mission has been compromised. Security breached. hehehe

major jump offs: Baugo basketball court, 1st falls, 2nd falls, 3rd falls, Tops, crusher, actually there are a lot of falls. we will just post all the pics of the falls.

xsembros the explorers:

Daks, Cute, Roy, Ace, Cathy, Ady, Richard, Jhebs, Don, Astel

sweeper: Puff

Pro photographers: Puff and Don

Semi Pro: Ace

Budget highlights:

* we negotiated php 30 per head for the motorcycle from jy square to baugo but bati ang dalan so naka pliti mi php 70 ky luoy ayo ang motor. i suggest others who wants to go there to take the sunny hills area. habalhabal fare is php20 per head.

* bring your own lunch.


What to expect:

* fun. so much fun and challenge.

* rock climb. root climb. rock jump. slippery trail.

* get wet. slippery rocks. rocks that are like walls. BIG ROCKS.

* cool waters. i think its potable but drink at your own risk.

* from the baugo basketball court, i think the 3rd falls is just 2 km away.

* snakes (we saw 1 alive that is about 1.5 meter snake and 1 headless dead snake)

* good view at the 3rd falls. it has a cave beneath it. and it blows wind like a propeller. maybe that is the reason when you take a bath at the falls you will not feel any cold. the water is cool but you will not get a cold feeling. amazing. you can take a dip there the whole day.

* we saw the snakes at the 3rd falls.

* compared to kawasan falls, baugo falls is much nearer.

* too bad the place is not totally clean. you can find some garbage around the river but not that many.

* there are cases there of flash flood so it is not really advisable to go there when it rains before hand.


How to get there:

go to Sunny hills. from there ky daghan na habalhabal at php20 per head. 2pax per motor. pwede sad php30 one pax per motor. going to the Baugo basketball court nana. u can bring a car also to the Baugo basketball court. don't take the busay route. lisud ang dalan.

from the court ky u can start the trek there. if you want to go directly to the river you can take our route. there is a footpath at the right side of the court going down left. when you go down take the left route. at the river go left until you reach the falls until the 3rd falls. at the 3rd falls take the right side trail. look for it. at the top you will now start to assault big boulders. rock jumping and climbing.

Don't go there when it rains.
