Mount Emie #2

January 21

Today we woke up at 7 and went to take a bus up Mount Emei to the trails. 3 hours of winding mountain roads we arrivd at a trail head where a few people were selling shoe spikes. Bought them and hiked up the icy path winding through an area of aggressive monkies which knew how to open bottles and attacked anyone carrying a bag.

We briefly stopped for some tea before continuing on to the giant temple on the mountain. From the top we could look out at other mountain peaks which poked out over the sea of clouds. It was beautiful and reminded me of the pictures of China I had seen in Chinese buffets as a young child.

We Climbed down the mountain and called it a night after getting a message.
