Broga - Gunung Tok Wan - Sungai Tekala

Ekspidisi pada kali ini di sertai oleh 10 orang peserta yang bersemangat untuk menawan puncak Broga yang terletak di Semenyih. Kami mengorak langkah menaiki dua buah kereta menuju ke destinasi kami pada jam 10 malam bertarikh 20 Jun 2014. 

Perjalanan kami bermula di Shah Alam dan mengambil masa selama dua jam untuk tiba ke kaki bukit Broga. Suasana di kawasan tempat meletak kereta sungguh gelap hingga membataskan pergerakkan kami. Mujur setiap orang mempunyai lampu suluh dan kami meneruskan perjalanan kami ke puncak Broga.

Kami tiba ke puncak kira-kira jam 2 setengah pagi. Setelah memilih kawasan yang sesuai, kami meletakkan peralatan dan berehat seketika. Kami mula memanaskan air untuk membuat teh dan membuka sedikit makanan seperti biskut dan roti. Kami menggunakkan apa sahaja hamparan yang ada seperti ‘ground sheet’, ‘sleeping bag’, dan ‘sleeping mat’ untuk melindungi pakaian dari terkena tanah. Sambil mengisi perut, kami berbual-bual sambil berkenalan kerana ada di antara kami baru pertama kali berjumpa. Kemudian kami merebahkan badan dan cuba untuk melelapkan mata.

Kira-kira jam 5 pagi, suasana menjadi hingar-bingar. Pengunjung sudah mula memenuhi puncak Broga dan kami semua terjaga. Kemudian kami menunggu waktu Subuh dan menunaikan solat. Kami menunggu sehingga matahari muncul sambil bergambar. Setelah suasana menjadi terang, 4 orang dari kumpulan kami mempunyai misi yang lain iaitu menawan puncak Gunung Tok Wan pula. Jadi kami berpecah kepada dua kumpulan; kumpulan pertama meneruskan perjalanan ke Gunung Tok Wan dan kumpulan kedua turun dari Broga ke tempat letak kereta.

Perjalanan ke puncak Tok Wan mengambil masa kira-kira 3 jam. Cabaran pada kali ini ialah keadaan jalan yang mendaki dan diselangi menurun. Kami menempuh keadaan sedemikian banyak kali dan mengakibatkan kesakitan pada bahagian peha. Malangnya, semasa dalam perjalanan, kaki Aizuddin mengelami kekejangan dan tidak dapat meneruskan kerana bimbang kecederaan menjadi serius. Maka perjalana di teruskan dengan 3 orang peserta iaitu Shaq, Nazreen dan Aqif. Kami bertiga tiba di puncak kira-kira jam 10 pagi dan berehat seketika sebelum berpatah balik.

Keadaan di puncak Gunung Tok Wan tiada apa yang mengujakan kerana di permandangan puncak di halang oleh pokok-pokok yang besar. Kemudian kami berpatah balik dan ketika sampai ke kaki gunung, kami hampir berputus asa kerana terpaksa menempuh kawasan Broga yang tidak mempunyai pokok dan kelihatan seperti padang. Jam menunjukkan pukul 1 petang dan kami terpaksa juga meneruskan perjalanan walaupun meredah panas terik matahari. Keadaan Broga yang seperti gurun kerana debu-debu memasuki mata dan bekalan air sudah habis. Kami berjaya tiba di kawasan tempat meletak kereta dan berjumpa dengan ahli pasukan kami yang lain. Setelah berehat selama 10 minit, kami meneruskan aktiviti kami ke Sungai Tekala. Jarak Sungai Tekala dari Broga tidak begitu jauh, kira-kira 15 ke 20 minit.

Di sana, kami mula memasak nasi dan lauk sambil menikmati air sungai yang menyegarkan. Menu kami pada ketika itu ialah nasi, telur dadar, sardin, dan sambil bilis. Setelah mengisi perut, kami membersihkan diri dan menukar pakaian. Kami bertolak pulang kira-kira jam 5 petang dan akhirnya sampai ke rumah masing-masing dengan selamat

This time, our expedition was to reach the top of Broga’s Hill located at Semenyih. We managed to gather 10 persons this time. By using two cars, we were heading to our destination around 10 p.m. on 20 June 2014. We started our journey at Shah Alam and the journey took about 2 hours to reach Broga’s Hill. The environment at the parking site was pitch black and caused a problem for us to walk. Luckily everyone had their own torchlight and we continued our journey to Broga’s peak.

We managed to arrive on the top of Broga’s Hill about 2 a.m on 21^st June 2014. After getting a proper place, we put down our equipment and take a breath for a while. Then, we heat up plenty of water for the tea and recover our energy with some biscuit and bread. We used ground sheet, sleeping bag, and sleeping mat to cover up from the dirt. While rest, we talk about ourselves because some of us just met for a first time. Then, after settle down, we try to sleep.

About 5 a.m., our surrounding turns from silent to noisy. Visitor started to reach the Broga’s peak and all of us woke up. Then, we perform Suboh prayer and wait for the sun rise. To fill the gap, we took tons of pictures. When the daylight covered the surrounding, four members from our group decided to continue to Mount Tok Wan peak. So our expedition team split into two groups; first group continue to Mount Tok Wan and second group went down to car park. The journey to Tok Wan peak took around 3 hours. The challenges this time was the continuously incline and decline path. It caused our thighs loosen. 

Unfortunately, Aizuddin cannot continue the mission because he suffered from muscle cramp and won’t take any risk. So the mission was carried on by Shaq, Nazreen, and Aqif. We made to the peak around 10 a.m. and take a breath for a while before turns back.

Actually, nothing was unique there. The peak view was block by the big trees. Then, we turn back and when we arrived on Broga, we almost lost our hope. It is because we had to across Broga that doesn’t have any trees and look like desert field. We had to across it even though the heat from the sun burns us because the clock shows 1 p.m. Its feel like we were at the desert because the dust enters our eyes and we had no water supply left. We made to the car park and gather with our group members. After take a short break for 10 minute, we continued our activity to Tekala River. The distance between Broga and Tekala River was not far, it took about 15 to 20 minutes.

We started cooked rice and dishes while enjoying the clod and refreshing water. Our menu was rice, egg, sardine, and ‘sambal bilis’. After having meals, we clean up ourselves and changed our cloth. We went back home on 5 p.m. and arrived at our home safely.
