Ok so there’s been a kerfuffle going around the mountaineering community about a certain incident involving a neophyte mountaineer who started rocking the boat by posting photos of officers of a mountaineering group… allegedly tagging them as “no balls”.
The group cited then reiterated by issuing several statements to counter the defamation done by the said newbie climber. Based on the initial actions of both parties, no clear story can be exhausted, only character assassination of each other.
The girl answered the statement issued by the group… and the mere allegation now is slowly being spun into a story as she fires her ammunition.
I have no certainty as to the veracity of the statements issued by both parties. I will just repost the information I gathered from the intarwebs. As of last I’ve heard, the group already filed civil and criminal cases against the girl who spammed several FB sites with the pictures of the officers of the group… tagging them as “no balls”.
The mountain involved was Mt. Pulag, and the event was CLIMBAPALOOZA which I think was held last weekend of February. To those who are not conversant with the hiker’s parlance…. CLIMBAPALOOZA is an event organized by the said group every February in commemoration of the V-Day… and it is celebrated nationwide.
I myself discourage mass climbing as such.
Here are the exchanges by the two parties:
