GUA MUSANG: The two mountain guides accompanying a family of four on their trek across the Gunung Gerah mountain range are believed to have more than 20 years’ experience.
GUA MUSANG: Mountain guides Shafiee Sidek and Hazman Mamat, who have more than 20 years of experience, are accompanying a family of four on a trek through the Gunung Gerah mountain range. Both guides are considered senior by their peers. A search and rescue official stated that it is possible one or more members of the group may have been injured, leading to their delay.
The group entered through Kampung Dakoh, Pos Balar, and proceeded towards Mount Gerah, Mount Bilah, Mount Bieh, Mount Ulu Sepat, and Mount Belatoh. Their trek began on August 29 and was set to conclude last Thursday, encompassing five mountains over six days. The guides, along with firefighters, were prepared to head to Kampung Dakoh should the need arise.
The family was reported missing after entering the mountain area on August 29 and were expected to arrive at Pos Kemar last Thursday, though there has been no contact with them.
