Growing Spirit Mountan
Mount Kinabalu towers 4095 meters (13,435 feet) above sea level. It is the highest mountain between the mighty snow-capped Himalayas and Wilhelmina (4509 meters / 14,793 feet) in Irian Jaya. It is also one of the most accessible and spectacular mountains in the world. Because of the earth movement, in is still growing with the rate of 5 mm (1/4 inches) a year.
Ever changing, it is the mountain of tropical rainforest, colorful blossoms and golden sunset, but also dark and violent storms. At times, a ghostly mist shrouds the mountain and it is easy to believe the local Kadazandusun's claim that it is the homeland of their spirit world.

Join in the Thrills and Spills of Our Adventure
In an effort to raise much needed funds for Borneo Child Aid, each person participating in the OmniBus Mt. Kinabalu Climb is donating 300 Malaysian Ringgits to the charity on top of all their travel, accommodation and climbing costs. This is really a great effort by all involved, but we obviously would like to help as much as we can so we have added a sponsorship page to the website where you can sponsor our “epic” climb and make a secure donation with your credit card. You will receive a receipt directly from Borneo Child Aid so you can offset your donation against tax, better they have your money than the tax man.
