3 great Phil. VT'ers in Marlboro Country | missmarianne, queenn and barbie_sunrise |
After our Mt. Pulag climb we were 6 VT'ers who took the bus to Sagada - it was a 6 hrs bus ride from Baguio through some beautiful landscapes with rice terasses everywhere going up and down the winding dirt mountain roads.
In this photo you see missmarianne, queenn and barbie_sunrise but in the group were also jonXXX, kentski11 and me OH_DK. The photo is taken in Marlboro Country near Sagada - we were on a day trip with the local guide Alfred. We had a great day hiking in this beautiful landscape - most of the time we were above the clouds and on the way we saw wild horses and many cows. |
| Our group beside the hanging coffins |
|  | The hanging coffins In Sagada they have an old tradition of hanging the coffins with the dead on a cliff wall like here or put them in a cave. |
| Excibits in Sagada museum |
| | Sagada museum This was a private collection of excibits. It was owned by the woman who showed us around. She was closely related to the Igorot tripe that used to be head hunters.
The woman told me that a Danish Antropologist was staying in Sagada and she studied the traditions of the Igorot tripe. |
