travel 2007 : yunnan, szechuan-china MeiLi Snow Mountain ( clear sky)

The clouds has cleared, the sunrise moment over. We waited for the clear sky when all the peaks revealed their sacred faces.

 

This shows the Mingyong Glacier & Kagebo Peak which has been described as the most beautiful peak in the world? by Joseph F. Rocker, the renowned Amican explorer and botanist. In 1986, the Panchen Lama Jianzeng once held rituals there. As usual, Meili Snow Mountain was enveloped in layers of clouds and mist. But as soon as the Panchen Lama recited scriptures and sprinkled some holy water, the clouds parted and Kagebo emerged from the mist. This has become a widespread legend among local people.

 

Mingyong Glacier sits at the foot of Kagebo Peak and looks like a long piece of white silk. Running from 5,500 meters down to 2,700 meters, only 800 meters above Lancang River, Mingyong is one of the few low altitude glaciers in the world. There is a 40km ride between Deqin and Mingyong
