Now I am looking at a mid life crisis tour that take me one weeks at certain part crawling pace, to fuel depot that is not in the map chart, visit longhouse that is deserted long ago... cross river at shallow point to reach my destination... Apo Kayan... I will need a GPS and Radio for sure... I am searching for my own route to vast forsaken logging path and by word of mouth alone...I could use a local 120PS truck with 4X4 mod or... a jeep with a trailer... Mmmm... ajeep and trailer look nice in a framed photo...Nah... I am joking...

Reply:Well... this is only a car team of 3 person if we fall off a cliff then its bye-bye forum... But... this time it ok trip only muscle ache controling the jeep for up to 24 hrs on 2 occasion... The road including river cross and wild trail with change of meeting a human after 1` hour hard drive... making direction inquiring a bit awkward as backtrack is a norm and fuel level is truthful in term of distance... but we do enjoy some nature delight...
