Hiking - Man-made Waterfall

Good Morning Blog,

Today I was supposed to go for a new urbex exploration with a new leader, Jo. But due to my mis-arrangement with my programmes; confusing Saturday to Sunday and another way around, today's hike will be a short one...

Thanks Mr Sun for cheering me up in the morning
At least, I got to cover the first part of the hike even though I wanted to cover all... Anyway, where were we heading today?

Decided to wear my Cap shirt over because I know many people find me disgusting...
Even though, I will prefer to not to wear one over...
I guess many people just don't get it, some suggested why don't I just wear this cap shirt and  shorts/hiking pants instead of this disgusting attire... Not many people understand that I had tried and the heat built up on my legs and body especially when my body is soaked.
Oh well, I guess hiking alone will be my option and tired of explaining sometimes...
Anyway met up with the leader, Jo, for this exploration and he was the one who gave me this badge for free, out of his own money. Thank you, Jo.
After explaining to Jo that I might need to exit the group early, thanks for being understanding. Since everyone had arrived, time to move on.
Ah, it has been a while since I hiked here, the pipeline trail.
Ugly Cap will become sweeper again and it's better since I know no one here and everyone has their own cliques
I will just take pictures freely from the back
Ooo my, they fenced up the piping. There are so many changes here.
First stop, Jo wanted to show us this place under an expressway
An opening in which I could hear a lot of bats screeching and smell the bat's poo from outside, so don't want to go in! 😂
Jo told me that there is something interesting at the entrance and oh yes! There is a simple graffiti of an alien and it was quite nicely drawn.

While others entered and snapped pictures inside, I just stayed outside and tried to find a way to take pictures.
It was so surreal like I returned to my past hike here
(Credit Jo) Group photo for the day!
(Credit Jo) I will keep it as a memory because it might not happen again...
It seemed like there is no way to cross this pipeline...
But Jo has his route...
Instead of going under the bridge...
Jo brought us somewhere else
I wondered where is this...
It was a thick foliage...
The tall grass was as tall as me!
After passing by these two giant rocks...
We came to open space... Hmm... It looks like xxxx training ground!
Ah! Jo said here is the SG waterfall!
Here is it!
The water source comes from this stream from unknown
let's take a look closer to the waterfall
LOL! What a mini waterfall and it is man-made some more. LOL!
Ah, BY, he always goes for urbex and hikes himself. Young and daring, hope I wish I can start hiking when I was young.
I didn't get myself down because I hate to get my feet wet but... for this hike, I can only cover one location which is this... So...
I decided to go barefoot to this stream
The drain where it channels the water current
(Thanks BY for helping) Captain Nerd trying to pose in front of people, okay, making others vomit 🤮 success
Looked at the water currents were so strong and can imagine why tsunami can sweep anything along its way...
Standing near the edge of the waterfall. If I can snap a pic without me standing there, it will make it as if it is a big waterfall.
Want to swim under the water and I guessed I am not well prepared enough.
Not advised to enter the stream or water without proper shoes... Bad hiker example 
The rope seems like quite handy, I guess I will carry one out for my every hike and I love how it was knotted like the hair knots.
Oh dear... My time was not enough, we had to cut the whole session earlier because I need to rush back...
In order to cross this gap, we had to climb at the side of the fence with around half of our feet spacing...
(thanks to the mysterious person) can't take big step here and it will be a big fall.
(credit to one of the ladies in the group) Some commented, it will be tough for ladies with big breast, just got everyone burst out loud.
I guessed I can't stay with them too long to wait for everyone to cross, I will have to rush home...
Shirt off and my most favourite moment - no stuffiness with wet back and soaking shirt
It seemed like the heavy clouds were coming, hope it won't rain so soon so that they will be able to complete the whole course.
As for me, just be myself without any judgement from others.
Feeling so cooling and no more wet shirt
I know I am an eyesore will always be an eyesore. That's why I will try to cover most of the possible trails as much as I can.
Today's man-made waterfall hike, was an interesting and yet short one. I will love to visit a natural waterfall if there is any.

Jeff
