Mt. Pulido next for Blue Falcons
published in Journal Online

SAN LUIS, AURORA -- Mt. Pulido, known for its rich mineral deposits and tropical rain forest situated in Diteki, San Luis, Aurora, will be the site of the advance mountaineering course of the Noble Blue Falcons Mountaineers on May 12. Under the leadership of Leonardo “Onad” Usita, the training will be led by premiere trainors Alfredo “Pedie” Dukha(Course Director), Anthony “Allan” Usita (head of mountaineering affairs) and Nelson Pandi(founder of Lakas ng Kamaong Pinoy).

The DENR Forests Rangers and the Philippine National Red Cross-Aurora Chapter will also send their expert instructors to guide the 600 climbers.

The training is one of the breeding grounds of the Noble Blue Falcons, who will send their best climbers to the ambitious Mt. Everest expedition.

The group was encouraged by the efforts of Governor Bellaflor Angara-Castillo of Aurora to promote environmental preservation and conservation.

The Blue Falcons’ “Climb For A Cause” revised the traditional concept of mountaineering where the climbers conquer their limitations for personal glory and prestige.

Noble Blue Falcons also encourage their members to join mountaineering as an alternative healing process.
