The roads to the Gulf Meru is very challenging due to come here to go through the jungle track. The
roads this time we did the six areas that my brother and I Dio, Irwan
Mas, Mas Anwar, and Bolot Rohmat alias Iril by riding three motorcycles.
Plan
first, early in the morning after dawn we set off from home
(Yosowilangun - Lumajang), but there are some constraints due to lack of
preparation we finally set off late in the morning at 06.30. The date was May 18, 2012 we went together. This trip we stumbled through Puger to buy shrimp for bait fishing there. After buying shrimp in TPI Puger, we continue on to Ambulu. Arriving
in the city Ambulu, we stopped for lunch we will take it to the Gulf of
Meru like noodles, drinking water, snacks, sauces, coffee, etc.. Approximately 30 minutes from town we entered the plantation Ambulu named Bulk Nongko. Here people pretty crowded, in market areas Munitions Nongko we stopped for breakfast once in a stall pecel. After breakfast, we continue to travel the rather stomach churning.
Journey in question is traveling in the Meru National Park Betiri the road is rocky, bumpy and slippery. Concentration, balance, and strength of arm muscles very influential if not want to fall from the bike. Several times we stopped in the area of the National Park for a moment to rest and quench your thirst. The
road to Meru bay is actually the same as the road to the beach, but
when he got on the block Bandealit Sumbergadung we have to turn left and
straight to the Bandealit klo. Leave in our motor homes with the most deket hills. There
is a board depicting a map of national park jungle track Bandealit -
Sukamade, and interestingly written "Have a nice challenge. Oops!!!
Thought ... ya think weve heavy jungle tracknya. Enough, we wrote
earlier track must pass through fields with crops with a slope of 50
degrees yes
about 70 meters. Quite ya, moreover there are no trees to shade us, ..
the heat bro!!! Jungle track we started at 12 noon loh, sure is hot: (.
Several of us had originally despair, not imagine such who
told you that we had the motor titipi explains that some time there
yesterday in Jember campus students traveled to the Gulf Meru to take a 6
hour period. "Klo natives here still 3-4 hours away," the father said.
Hemm, period 'lose
as they thought while we encourage ourselves and everything. Upon
entering the forest, this forest was once a beauty, there are few traces
of animals such as wild boar or bull visible in the passing lane. voice
fluttering birds Rangkok also had several surprise us. Tracknya pretty
slick, because a few days earlier had heavy rain in this area. actually
looks very klo this track rarely passed, there are still a lot of grass
and trees that block our way across. said only three hill?? had was
that we were hurled while running, it seems more of
3 hill ya!! we had to take down some hills many times the past few
rivers. Yummy track is a lot of clean water sources, is very different
if we climb into the mountains. Often times we stopped at the river to
clean and fill stock our
drinking water, and often I fell while passing through a river full of
rocks with moss. Track is quite dark, because the forest is very dense.
felt when the Heat got peg 21 which is the highest hilltop in this
track. awhile we rest here ,
until we finally realizes that it was afternoon and scared kemaleman in
the woods like this. We quickened our pace, especially my brother and
me in order to find the path. Oh yes between us no one has ever come
here, so we had was really keen to reading
this track. In some point, we always leave traces by tying a yellow
rope in tree branches. we thought it would be very helpful at all on the
way home will be much faster because it does not have hesitated to
define the path. We had confusion specify
the path when we met through a river and it's hard for any sign him go.
Once we expand the search radius of this path, we finally find the way.
Almost alone we lost!! kamipun into the bamboo forest, the rain began
to fall. We stopped to
wear a raincoat, but it turned out upon our way 15 minutes, the rain
ceased. My brother and I in front to find a way and mark the trail rope.
Others are a bit further back, I added the excited after hearing the
sound of the waves. I hasten my
steps and finally ... oh the beautiful Gulf of Meru in the afternoon we
took exactly 5 hours trip (12:00 to 17:00 GMT). moment my brother and I
sat relaxed on the beach while enjoying the atmosphere of the evening
and wait for some other colleagues finally up
well with the difference in 30 minutes from us. camping ground we go
looking for the right and immediately set up tents.
Meru In this western
bay unsuitable for the camping ground but already getting late. We
started cooking and making drinks, some snacks we also remove from Our
bags. We exchanged stories about the experience of jungle track when he
left. Dominant story content complaints, hahahaha ... reasonable!
rarely we did or maybe I had not traveled around much longer. evening we
spent the day playing dominoes and
coffee but most also have a deep sleep first. Our plan for fishing in
the evening we undo, afraid if there are wild animals out at night
especially around us other than the beach and estuary is wilderness....
