Cresta de Gallo, Sibuyan Island sidetrip after the hardest climb 🌊

11/04/2025

Mount Guiting-Guiting, towering at 2,058 meters on Sibuyan Island in the Philippines, is renowned for its jagged peaks and challenging trails. The first successful ascent to its summit occurred on June 17, 1982, achieved by a team comprising Mon Ruiz, Kim Valino, and Roel Tan Torres from the University of the Philippines Mountaineers, along with Edwin Gatia from the Philippine Mountaineering Society. This expedition was organized under the leadership of Arturo Valdez. Notably, all members of this pioneering team were Filipino mountaineers.
