Hundred islands in Pangasinan Philippines where you can see the beauty that the island f Philipines can offer, considered as one of the world class places in the world, known of its fine white sand beaches, clear water and awesome under water corals and structures. We have been to the hundred islands National Park with my mountaineering friends to spend some relaxing moments together. We are fascinated of the magical and countless little uninhabited islands dotting the wide blue seas.

The Hundred Islands National Park is the foremost tourist destination in the province of Pangasinan in northern Philippines. It is a five-hour drive north of Manila passing through Pampanga, Tarlac, and finally to Alaminos. The jump-off point is the town of Lucap. From the wharf, it is just a short 20-minute boat ride to the islands.

Visitors to the area should be prepared for the lack of luxuries of any sort. There are no beach resorts, nor aqua sports facilities. This is simply nature at it's best, without any of the commercial hype and fanfare.

Month Of The Mountain The Hills Are Alive Mt. Canlaon

Mountaineering, mountain climbing, news in mountain climbing, videos in mountain climbing, mountain, mountains, climbers, mountaineers, caving, river rafting, wall climbing, kayaking
In a celebrated Broadway play turned movie, Julie Andrew sings one of the most familiar songs in Hollywood; “The hills are alive to the sound of music.” Now, unless you consider all sound to be music, like minimalist composer, John Cage, music is not exactly what our hills are alive to.

Here, it is the sound of slash and burn agriculture, it is the sound of uncontrolled up-migration and consequently the noise of the motor-cycles, the most available mode of transport there, it is the sound of the construction of expensive neighborhoods and the sound pf everything else but, hardly, music.

But, in 2007 with the celebration of the International year of the Mountain, IYM and the designation of June as the month of the mountain, the international community said that music should, again, belong to the mountains; of watershed protection, of making the mountains contribute more than simple extractive minerals and goods.

Local mountaineering groups are gearing up for appropriate celebrations. Habagat for one has scheduled a Basic Mountaineering Course (BMC) for beginner mountaineers or those who just want to update their mountaineering skills.
