Took a didi from Lijiang to the cable car base. Its low season so there were still tickets available to buy, there are lots of queues to get on the bus and on the cable car but we are used to that travelling in China. The mountain is beautiful and it was amazing to get to the top and see the glacier up close. We didn't take any oxygen with us, just climbed the stairs slowly and rested often. The blue moon lakes were very pretty too.
