Yellow Mtn 黄山 (yellow mtn)

ok...so this is huang shan. sorry for a few of them...i went a little black and white crazy...some of them look sweet tho. this is probably one of the most beautiful places i've ever been to. it was way fun. we ran around and took a bunch of fun crazy pics. we hiked a total of about 15 km or about 10miles. straight up...i swear, i've never climbed so many stairs.
these are some of the most hard working guys in the world...this is their job. the guys like this one carry these all the way to the top. those boxes are not light mind you. its like this one guy we ran into said on the way up "china saved all their A game olympians for this"
these guys are carrying this huge box of stuff up to the top. the stuff these guys carry is the food and drink and other things that are sold at the stores on the top of the mtn. they were moving pretty slow and it was a tight sqeeze at some places.


this is a straight up cliff that we were on the edge of. it was probably a couple thousand feet down. it was way cool and kinda creepy to be on the edge...but what a great view. some of the other people in the group and my roomie have some sweet pics of the cliffs, i'll get em and post em later.


public comb?? (its on the end of the string) and the locks on the chain are supposed to represent love-you're supposed to put one on their with your love. cute eh?

this is pretty cool...i didnt dare do it tho. these guys get paid pretty good, and they better, cuz thats crazy. also...we thought it was funny they had a weight limit posted.

i really like this pic. its pretty sweet.




at this place i had jumped over the little rail deal and walked way out on the rocks. one of the guys who worked there yelled to me and told me to get down...i guess they've had like 8ppl die this year in the park. it was amazing tho.


some chinese architecture for ya


exhausted...and we still had a couple kms to go...
some of the group
