Photographer's Note
Mount Kinabalu is located in Kinabalu Park in the Malaysian state of Sabah, some 80km east of Kota Kinabalu.
Mount Kinabalu is South-East Asia's third tallest mountain. Height of the mountain is 4,101m.
The mountain is sacred to locals. They believe that spirits of their ancestors inhabit the top of the mountain. Previously, a chicken was sacrificed at the peak every time a climb was made but these days this ceremony only happens once a year when only seven chickens are needed to appease the spirits.
