Photo 1, 2, 5 & 6: Act of vandalism ? Quite sad when viewing these photos. The route to the sumit was quite clean but when you reach the summit, you could see this kind of graffiti and you paid for the guide and permit fee for the hiking trip (complusory as Mt. Ophir is under the control and surveillance of the National Park of Johor). This is the kind of view you can see in other mountains in Malaysia namely Nuang, Angsi and etc.
