FINDING GOLD IN THE MOUNTAINS OF MINDANAO...
I didn't find it myself. But many have made this arduous journey into the mountains of Pantukan, a famous area called Boringot, in search of new-found riches.
Breakfast in Tagum was necessary for this muddy climb to Diat - via some really friendly local stops along the way. Learning the history of this place at Post 4, named for the old logging posts, I also found out that they have an area called "White Monkey" (Puting Ongoy!)
In Diat, I ran into someone I knew! And he invited us into his home for lunch - before showing us the gold smelting process, and an abandoned tunnel!
Then the rain came... and we took the river road back to Pantukan!
Part 2... Kidapawan and Magpet! I love this area, and especially the glass bridge at Kapati Falls. Hope to spend more time in the future!
