Really like your shots at the peak of rinjani. I salute you guys for the tough trail to the peak..

I am the girl you met during your trekking to the crater rim II camp site.. We were heading to the Segara Anak lake camp site. Can you recall that? From the team of eleven, Leanne.

Hi Leanne,

Yes, sure I remember ... :-) I hope you have a great trek at Mt Rinjani also. I have been trying to Google "Team of Eleven" but could not find any leads.

How can I contact you? ... :-) KC
