Conservation Issues: There are different threats that mountains constantly encounter, Landslides which usually occur in the rainy season most especially in high and mountainous areas, cutting down of trees around it and quarrying around the mountain. Neither large hardwoods nor towering trees can be seen along the trail due to the still prevalent practice of pag-uuling or small-scale charcoal production in the community which remains as one of the main sources of livelihood of the Dumagats.

Conservation Measures: For the continued security and conservation of the mountain, the following reminders are implemented: • Practice the “Leave No Trace” Principles at all times, Leave No Trace directs people to minimize site alterations by avoiding actions such as digging tent trenches, cutting branches from live trees, hammering nails into trees, permanently clearing an area of rocks or twigs, or removing other natural items. Leaving the trail, the way you found it lets others enjoy it too.

This shift to tourism is being done to introduce a more sustainable way of living.
