Ascent Trip Report

In port Hong Kong while stationed on USS Enterprise. Took local buses to the bottom of the access road. Walked up to top. I know I summited, but cannot remember what the fence situation was way back then. On the way down, I met another officer from my division who unbeknownst to me had the same goal in mind to reach H.K.'s highest point. Out of 6,000 sailors on the ship figure the odds of two guys from the same office doing Tai Mo shan! On this same trip I also took the cog railway up The Peak on Hong Kong Island and hiked to the summit.
