The new models these days are fine really. I am using a 70csx. The csx comes with the extra strong antenna for a stronger lock on the satellites. It is an older model but served me really well. I suppose all the new models come equipped with this 'strong' antenna. Hi William…I have seen some people using the Oregons. The new models these days are fine really. I am using a 70csx.

Wonder the brand is Oregon 450? I am just contemplating to buy one but would like to get feedback from those using it before I buy. Prefer review from someone using here in Malaysia. Your response is appreciated. Just interested in the guy’s GPS for terrain. Wonder the brand is Oregon 450?

They can be both from campers as well as day trippers I think. Sigh...it is sad really that people still do not have the basic moral and civic mindedness to keep their environment clean.

Just a comment on the photo of the camp site. Are those rubbish abandoned by campers? I see them all the time where ever I go.

People get lost very often at Kutu (even if they have maps). The initial part of the trail has many forks because they are access to fruit orchards. I strongly suggest you go with someone who is really familiar with the place. Or hire a local Orang Asli guide at Kampung Pertak. The trek is tough for me as I am unfit. The last 1km is all steep terrain. Take it slow, so that you can enjoy the walk and also to avoid getting hurt. The place is not easy for someone with sprained ankle or sort to descend. Hope the above helps. Hi Keong!!
