    The climb was beautiful, the last stop of the Five Sacred Mountains. It was a pity the weather was drizzling; things were fine at the foot of the mountain, but after passing Nantianmen, the mountain was shrouded in mist. It had a lovely autumnal feel when we arrived. There were so many routes, simply too many to list; I downloaded the track beforehand.
