At Baganihan, Marilog District, Davao City lies a long great waterfall named Kwagsik Falls. A destination we defied to reach with guts and insanity for a quick big break; one daring adventure for us Kela, Aia, Phan2x, Shyla and Stephen.
We hardly knew the exact jump off to Brgy. Baganihan from Davao City except the eagle statue. We drop off the bus (2 hours travel) in front of a covered court after it and we thought that was exactly where we'll start the trek. The local resident said there was another gym ahead but he wasn't sure he heard about Kwagsik Falls. He sent us to Commander Bayucboc in Maharlika to let someone guide us so we met Joel and Sony. The rain has poured that afternoon we arrived so we expected a muddy trail.

We reached the campsite (doesn't seem to look like one but we have no choice) after two hours and it was getting dark. We were starting to pitch our tents and get warm but suddenly a tree fell off beside us and it freaked us out. Our guides and Stephen inspected the other trees if they are prone to fall off next, putting up a straight log parallel to the trunks to barricade it. It didn't set off our worries but it was adventure that we sought, so the challenge of nature was really really there. Each of us prayed hard that night to wake up the next morning safe, and we did. God and nature, indeed, didn't betray us. Trust was only thing left for us to survive the trial.
When we woke up, we hurriedly packed our things and went off to the waterfalls.

After enjoying the magnificence of Kwagsik Falls, we ate our breakfast and took the river trek back to the road via Nam-Nam. At the highway, we fortunately tried to hitch a ride in a ten-wheeler truck with loads of mineral water to Calinan, Davao City.
taking a break...
