Mountain climbing in China

The still photo shows one of the stairways at Hua Shan.  I've previously posted a photo of the gondolas and the plank walk.   This morning I also found a video, which includes one stair segment even worse than the one above (think not just vertical but almost convex), and - at the four minute mark - video of the plank walk.  Not for the faint of heart.

  1. Aieee. That's like my nightmares, except the impossibly dangerous climbs occur inside weirdly designed buildings rather than in the mountains.

  2. Not for the faint of heart, even if only in video form!
