Climbing a Mountain (2)

Maybe we're suckers for punishment? If you haven't checked out the earlier 'Climbing a Mountain' blog, then I suggest you review that one first. This time is was just Ros and I, and no flashpacking. Simply a large hill that starts at about 4,000m above sea level. We thought we'd acclimatised, and therefore it should be a 'walk in the park', but no.



We had to stop every 10 meters for air - that's a lot of stops - but we made it. Few!

This is Litang, with the hill that we climbed behind

Hanging out with a local Yak farmer on the peak. We were pleased to see that he was out of breath whe he arrived also
