Mount Yong Yap Mount Yong Yap (Malay "Gunung Yong Yap") is a mountain located along the Perak and Kelantan state border in Peninsular Malaysia. At 2,168 m, it is the 6th highest point in Peninsular Malaysia. This mountain is part of the Titiwangsa Rangewhich is an extension of the Tennaserim Range from Thailand. There are several logging trails that lead to the mountain and are only accessible via 4WD vehicles. There have been reports of tiger attacks in the past around this area. The latest known casualty was an orang asli who got mauled to death by a Malayan tiger. There are also the usual leeches and sand flies that populate the entire mountain. The mountain trail is deemed tough as there are fallen tree trunks, sharp-edged bamboos and thorny trees that poses a lot of challenge for hikers to get to the mountain's peak. The conical shape of the mountain means having to go up an extremely steep slope to the summit. This mountain is definitely not recommended for people inexperienced at climbingmountains in the tropical rainforest. The Mount Yong Yap trek is considered to be one of the most toughest mountain treks in Peninsula Malaysia.

Peninsulas of Michigan The Peninsulas of Michigan are a pair of fresh water peninsulas defined by several components of the Great Lakes and their connecting waterways which together compose the U.S. state of Michigan. The Upper Peninsula to the north has a more rural and jagged landscape than the more urban and level Lower Peninsula to the south. Separating the two parts are the Straits of Mackinac which joins Lake Michigan to Lake Huron at an even flow. Persons crossing between the two landmasses had to use ferries in sometimes ice-prone conditions until the construction of the Mackinac Bridge. Long tracts of shore along both peninsulas with several Great Lakes give Michigan the largest territorial waters of any state except Alaska (which has thousands of miles of coast). The Lower Peninsula has a population that is well over an order of magnitude larger than that of the Upper Peninsula due to the presence of big cities including Detroit and Grand Rapids with histories of substantial manufacturing and technology employment. The cultural differences between the Michigan peninsulas tend to have greater meaning to residents of the Upper Peninsula than to those of the Lower Peninsula due to their reliance on forestry and mining which puts them at variance both economically and politically with the rest of the state.
