Mohogo Mountains, Morogoro, Tanzania -9.011233, 37.102178 I flew over these mountains in the fall of 2006. I'm still dreaming of returning on foot one day.   We are heading to the Philippines this winter for about a month to see family and have a holiday, so I'm dedicating a wanderlust post to places I'd be interested to visit on this trip. We will be based in Manila on Luzon, and will take trips to the islands of Samar, Leyte, and Coron:
 Mt. Pulag, Benguet, Luzon, Philippines - 2800m asl  The vast and minimally-explored Calbiga Cave, Samar, Philippines Southern Carpathian Mountains, Romania
45.478549,25.01577 The Southern Carpathian Mountains in Romania are home to the largest continuous stand of virgin forest left in Europe. When considered with the rest of the Carpathian Mountain range, they become the second longest mountain chain in Europe, spanning seven countries, and house the largest population of brown bears and wolves on the continent. Dizin, Iran
36.050105,51.414857 When I think of Iran, it's usually not for skiing, but because of the high altitude (2,600m-3,600m) of the mountains, the slopes are often open much longer than their European counterparts.  Photo courtesy of: jyvo_rez Lake Danao, Ormoc, Leyte, Philippines
