After three
years, I came back to Wawa dam. This
time around, I was the guide of two of my friends who tagged along who also
share the same passion as me. Of the
three of us, Jay was the most excited because it was his first out-of-town trip with his
new camera.
Since it was
August (2011), we were quite apprehensive about the weather because it tend to
rain every now and then. Actually, along
the way, we experienced scattered drizzles and we were hoping that a good
weather will side with us.
The moment we
traced the path towards the dam, the houses along the way increased. Likewise, the open side of the trail on the
side of the mountain is now secured because of the steel fences. With the presence of the fences, somehow, my
reservations way back in 2008 when I was passing this same trail was now
comforted.
After passing the
steel blade bridge, the abundant water flowing from the dam greeted us. Unlike in 2008 where the water was murky,
this time around, the water was clear.
We found a path
that leads directly to the lower ground towards the base of the dam. It would
be a good experience for a quick splash with the rush of water at the dam but
since it was August, the water level was high and the current was strong. Instead, we just spent our time taking photos
and doing some crazy stuff. And we were
happy because we had the place all by ourselves.
