Mount Bintuod is a mountain in the Sierra Madre range in the province of Nueva Vizcayamunicipality of Alfonso Castañeda. It is probably the highest peak in the Philippines longest mountain range with a first GPS-based measurement of 1,915 meters above sea level, from an expedition in April 2012. There are no records of the first ascent, but local tribe people have long established paths. In some maps this peak is misidentified as Mount Dalimonoc, an actually lower peak adjoining Bintuod to the west. However, locals report hunting to have reduced wildlife in recent years, thus game is rare now. The forested peak can be reached in a two days one night return hike from Barangay Lipuga, Alfonso Castañeda, Nueva Vizcaya. This rural area of the Philippines is traditional land of the Bugkalot or Ilongot tribe and was only opened to a road via Carranglan, Nueva Ecija in 1997 when a hydropower dam was constructed in the Casignan River of the same valley. ==See also== *List of mountains in the Philippines *List of Southeast Asian mountains 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mount Bintuod」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
