‎CHIN Shui Hiung; Ravi Mandalam & Christopher Chin‎

‎East Kinabalu - A Guide to the Eastern Part of Mount Kinabalu‎

‎Kota Kinabalu: Opus Publications 2013. Very well illustrated large 8vo pp viii 152 a very good new copy in dustwrapper. This book is a guide to the remote and rugged eastern part of Mount Kinabalu the tallest mountain on the island of Borneo. The western part of the mountain is readily accessible by a scrambling trail that has been developed over several decades into a secure track with guard rails steps and ropes in steeper sections. It attracts thousands of amateur climbers every year. The eastern summit of Kinabalu was scaled for the first time only in 1957 by two British climbers Myles Bowen and Ross Urquhart a century after the maiden climb to the western summit by Hugh Low in 1851. The steep ascent over sheer cliffs and the rugged terrain continue to limit the number of visitors to East Kinabalu. In this book the authors provide information on the topography of East Kinabalu four climbing routes and brief historical information on each route. The routes described are the Bowen�s Route on the south side of the mountain branching off the tourist trail before the Sayat Sayat rock face and ascending over the Mesilau cliff to the Eastern Plateau; Kotal�s Route from the east side that ascends to the top of the East Ridge from the East Mesilau River and traverses behind and below the Pinnacles to the Eastern Plateau; Bulangga Route from the northwest side of Kinabalu that ascends up from the Penataran River to the top of the North Ridge and thereon to the Eastern Plateau and the East Ridge Route that traverses the entire length of the East Ridge from Poring to Rhino Horn. The book is profusely illustrated with photographs maps route profiles and other minutiae. Pictorial laminated boards. New/New. Opus Publications Hardcover‎

‎Kinabalu - The Haunted Mountain of Borneo: an account of its ascent its people flora and fauna‎

‎Kota Kinabalu: Opus Publications 2008. Illustrated in black and white small 8vo pp xvi 95 paperback a very good copy. First published in 1927 Kinabalu: The Haunted Mountain of Borneo still enthralls readers with the exploits of early-day explorers of Kinabalu. This account follows Enrique�s desire to scale the summit with his trusted companion Sau Nan and a small entourage. Enriquez�s account of his expedition contains some of the most beautifully written passages that portray the starkness and beauty of Kinabalu. He notes that "Kinabalu is a sort of Mecca for naturalists" which still holds true today. An enjoyable read that captures the romance and excitement of discovery. An amateur naturalist knowledgeable about butterflies and birds author C.M. Enriquez concocted a two-month itinerary to collect butterfly and other specimens on Kinabalu when his adventures began.
