We pick a relatively simple trails - Southview, peep at the two caves again at Cave Path,  up the steps at Rengas, join the mainroad, branched off to the Submit Path and back the main road walking down the steep slope instead of up..Oranges, dragon fruits and small bottle of H20 fueled this short walk.

 

Merbau's bark.

Holed bark.

 

Wise man's gift. but which tree is that- Gaharu?

  Gaharu,  Aquilaria malaccensis

Passiflora laurifolia picked up along the main road. Not sure where is the vine.
