I was looking down from the plateau of the summit at Sayat Sayat check point. To me. the most mesmerizing part of the entire climb of Mount Kinabalu is the descent from the summit. You can see the grandiose landscape while you walk downhill. My magical moment is not the point when I stood on the highest point of the mountain, Low's peak, but when I walked down the rocky plateau looking at the magnificent rocky formation of the summit.
