Even though this is a famous and ancient mountain with centuries of rich history, current life in rural China is rough by any standard. Maybe there is running water, maybe not. Maybe there is indoor plumbing, maybe not. Maybe there is electricity, maybe not.

To be on this mountain truly makes one realize just how small we human beings really are. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/559f322be4b0a325e7a8f4f5/1493662768472-YKZ4L5E8QHZF9UW9SAUV/1HuaTrek.png Blog - Huashan Trek HuaTrek - This is the raw GPS data we gathered on our GPS watch. Data points 1250 - 1921 represent the hike on the mountain. The orange route is our hiking trek. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/559f322be4b0a325e7a8f4f5/1493663115814-WSY176S59VRWJ321H7F1/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Huashan Trek Reaching out with the camera lens to 'touch' the Chess Pavilion. It is still a long ways away! In this photograph you see both the building above and the pavilion below. While we ourselves have not been out to the pavilion, we know people who have. The report is that the 'path' to this piece of legend is highly dangerous, at best. One's sense of balance had better be pretty good! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/559f322be4b0a325e7a8f4f5/1493663245630-MQLI04Y9LQBS9YJBFWM8/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Huashan Trek Some of the raw, stark and wild beauty of this granite gem called Huashan! The raw and stark beauty of this mountain never ceases to amaze us. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/559f322be4b0a325e7a8f4f5/1493662713780-DCUKG5Q9GQ87NAIQ6WE2/3WindsweptA7K_2943.JPG Blog - Huashan Trek Windswept Huashan plateaus. Even the trees develop a toughness, in order to survive on this mountain. Life up there isn't easy, even if you're a tree. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/559f322be4b0a325e7a8f4f5/1493662842945-YXTOOSFFRF9AMYOM0PE4/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Huashan Trek The West Peak cornice with the plains and Huayin City in the distance. In 2002, after spending the night on the mountain to capture the sunrise, Dennis (and others on that expedition) walked to and sat atop the cornice on West Peak. The cornice is the middle peak in this photograph. Beyond that you can see the plains where Hauyin City spreads out. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/559f322be4b0a325e7a8f4f5/1493663059609-2PVEZ6P50IKW7I6ZQDQM/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Huashan Trek A distant view of the Chess Pavilion on Huashan. This location pays homage to a legend that is unique to Huashan. We've posted pictures of this pavilion before. Find the roof top along the edge of the closest mountain and follow the rim down and to the right. Atop the next plateau is the Chess Pavilion. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/559f322be4b0a325e7a8f4f5/1493662902173-5RHQM7BGSRO4EJWMHNZO/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Huashan Trek Zoomed in on the precipitous West Peak cornice. Zooming in on the cornice precipice, Dennis didn't realize until later, the potential danger he had been in, hanging out on rock that looks like it could break away at any time. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/559f322be4b0a325e7a8f4f5/1493662745440-8ZF7P3J486CMX6JDM139/2HuaTrekGoogle.png Blog - Huashan Trek The Garmin Huashan trek overlaid on GoogleEarth.
