salamat!  :)

Diko na mahanap ang ITI namin sir. Bakun Trio kasi kami 3 days dayhike and 3 mountain peaks (Lobo/Tenglawan/Kabunian)meaning daypacks lang dala namin.. Sa brgy hall ng Bakun kami nag-stay natutulog at nagluluto, ang kapitan dun nag cater samin. 100/person/day. Apat lang kami nung ginawa namin ang Bakun Trio medyo malaki nagastos namin umabot sa 4,500 ang sakin kasama na pasalubong. At that time may mga sirang kalsada papuntang Bakun town proper kaya matagal talaga biyahe namin and we have to walk on some areas..i ,remember sinundo pa kami ng Kapitan naka van papunta sa jump-off ng Mt.Lobo mga 11am na kami naka start trek nag hanap pa ng guide kasi ,500 mt.lobo guide fee,iniwan na namin ang mga gamit namin sa van at dadalhin na lang ni Kapitan sa Poblacion Bakun Central para magaan lang dala namin, Lobo traversre ginawa namin sa Poblacion Bakun Central kami lumabas.The next day Mt.Tenglawan naman 5am kami nag start,ibang guide naman 1000/guide fee mga 830pm na kami nakabalik sa central dahil sa daming photo ops..hahaha.profesional photographer kasi kasama ko that time!pang 3rd ang Mt.Kabunian,6am start trek diferent guide 700/guide fee. pinanghuli talaga namin ang Kabunian kasi ito daw ang highlight ng whole Bakun Trio Climb at pinaka scenic ang view..which is realy true.sobrang ganda ni Kabuian blessed kami ng good weather throughout the whole 3days trek although may padating na bagyo nun sa Manila bago kami umalis papunta baguio.so,we realy pray na maganda ang weather sa Bakun kasi sayang ang oras at pera pag maulan ang climbs namin.



I found this ITI sa net c/o Manong Lakwatsero which is malapit sa ITI namin i think its complete details na with CP# ng person to be contacted sa Bakun area.Check it out na lang.
