#club5050 | Unlimited Adventure "Burn Kelieten"

Assalamualaikum all steemian friends. How about your story today. May we all always be in the protection of Allah Subhanawata'ala Amin. At first glance I want to know about my current natural news. Is he still fine even though humans are fiercely against him? Sometimes without gratitude we forget hard about the natural beauty that the creator has entrusted to us to continue to protect and preserve. As much as we can enjoy everything that is very perfect. But we often forget to leave a piece of that beauty so that our children and grandchildren can enjoy it in the future. Maybe this is just a word of reminder for all nature activists to continue to be grateful for what is given and as much as possible to preserve it properly when indeed set foot on the earth that stretches widely to reach the highest peaks.

Yup, "Burn Kelieten" is one of the towering peaks in the Gayo highlands. It is known as a cold city, and is beautiful for its beauty and scenery. So that we were too frightened to move our hearts and set foot into the land. As I said in my previous post, that I like to wrestle with nature and explore the forest, so on that occasion I immediately emptied the Cariel bag that had been prepared in the corner of the room.

"Yok gas," the WhatsApp notification came in and was read on the cellphone screen. The invitation made him just go and say goodbye to his beloved mother and hurry to leave. Every now and then I look at the watch that is wrapped around my wrist. Exactly at 09.00 we set off and began to explore the journey and adventure without limits.

On the way we stopped at a luxurious and majestic building which was crowded with people in droves to carry out their obligations as true Muslims. Arriving there we immediately moved quickly to perform ablution and pray earnestly'.

All finished praying, then we left and continued our journey back. Instead we had begun to smell the cold charm of the city. Yes, now we have started to feel the cold air of the magnificent city which I call the Korean version of Aceh.

On the side of the road that we passed were lined with beautiful flowers and plants that thrived there. It's really amazing and beautiful to the eye. Eyes sparkle to see a very beautiful charm like in a fairy tale. With its cool atmosphere, towering mountains, a stretch of lake that stretches in the middle of the city, beautiful plants adorn the entire city with very lush and beautiful blooms, the most important thing is the very delicious specialty of Gayo coffee.

Instead of telling a long story about the charm of the city. We have also arrived at our destination, namely the burn kelieten main camp which is located at the bottom of the mountain close to the lake. Because we arrived at night, so we couldn't continue climbing that day.

All who want to climb stop there and rest to climb the mountain the next day. We were all getting ready to pack up our things and also getting ready to cook for that night's hunger pangs. We only serve ready-to-eat food so you can hurry up and take a break.

Birds chirping began to sing cheerfully, the sun greeted warmly plus the cool air was complete my happiness that morning. Now is the time to play wisely. No more neglectful and careless words about everything. Whether it's big or small, there's no need to underestimate anything that has to do with climbing readiness. Everything is really well prepared. Both in terms of health, completeness of climbing equipment, logistics, mental and other important things.

After everything was ready, we began to carry the cariel, each with a different weight, according to the needs of the climber. All running in line and still very excited. We walked down a hillside lined with dense pine trees.

Thankfully, the hills we passed were filled with pine trees, so the sun couldn't even sting the heat over our heads. We are still walking leisurely up the slopes of the pine hillside. Some of the team had started to gasp after climbing several hills to get to the highest peak. Everyone started laying down on Cariel and paused to catch their breath properly.

Evening greeted us and we had made it through several shelters from the bottom to shelter 2. Under the twilight square, footsteps were still dancing following the trail of endless adventure to the highest peak. All began to prepare flashlights for lighting devices while traveling in the dark.

The sky began to turn orange, red fibers began to appear majestically in the high and wide expanse. Now we have entered shelter 3 which is the last post for the ascent we did. All the teams started to pitch their tents nimbly, and some started looking for firewood to prepare for tonight's bonfire.

Everything is ready, the tent has stood majestically, but there is a problem when we want to start a fire there. With the capacity of moist wood, it is a bit of an obstacle for us to start the fire. And thank God we were equipped with a little knowledge about fire survival and how to choose good fuel to use for humid conditions like in the mountains. We cut down a few trees that stood there cocoons as fuel for us to use that night. With all the efforts that have been made, thank God we managed to create a bonfire as a heating medium that night.

All lined up around the bonfire to warm the body. Each took out their own lunch. And started cooking for dinner.

The night passed beautifully with the cool natural atmosphere and the fireplace was a pair of situations that I really enjoyed. Wrestle with nature, enjoy the charm of the night in the middle of the jungle of the great god. It was very memorable and made me addicted to wanting to come back that night.

When dawn greeted, the clock headed right at 05.00. We all got ready to head to the top of the rock. Seeing the land above the clouds, from an altitude of 2930 masl. The view is very beautiful, I stand on a rock stuck at that height while breathing fresh air without any volume at all.

Everything I enjoy now really amazes me. And I am very grateful to be given the opportunity to enjoy this beauty, which even others have not had the opportunity to experience all of this. Being above the heights with all the experiences and lessons that I got along the way made me learn to be grateful for the blessings of Allah that were entrusted to us to explore. With high mountains we are still nothing compared to this world, we are small grains trying to find happiness in the vast expanse of nature. Are we still arrogant with nature, are we still arrogant and feel great to make nature polluted and damaged by our lecherous hands? Think before you act, nature is still very patient with our actions and don't wait for everything to really rage before we realize and start to appreciate. Now it is enough for us to take lessons from some of the disasters that hit. It's just a real warning for us, that they are hurt and disturbed because of us. So it is enough that you are grateful for the beauty that nature has given by not polluting and destroying it.

Let's go further and stand higher above the earth. So that we realize that we are nothing compared to this magnificent earth. This is a short story from me and some quotes in it for reflection. I hope all friends enjoy reading it and are more excited to explore this earth.
