Goddess, Idols??!

Please do not disturb or kicking these stacks of rocks when you encounter one. Some of these rocks were stacked with the likeness of idols or goddess.

I heard from one friend that hikes this mountain many times that someone actually possessed by spirits that believed to be resided in rocks that taken home.

Please do not remove/take ANYTHING from the mountain. At most is taking pictures like me & I am not possessed yet**!!! ;-)

Note**: Already two weeks since my hike!!!
