Yunnan Nature Adventures and Paraglide Yunnan.
Canadian with 4Wheel Drive Jeep constantly exploring local valeys and mountains..
Good contacts with guides in Yunnan for Dail / Lijian..
Photos and Videos
I hope I can skip work to go see these films..
If you want to explore the mountains around Kunming and need a way to get to your hiking trail I can get you there and also do a retrieve at a different location...
or to the summit for mountain bikes with reitrieve at different location....
Reasonable rates.......
Fundamental fact to consider driving in china........
Everything coming from the right has the right of way.
Everything coming from the left has to give way...
This is why cars will cut you off as they get on the road..
It's the same rules as a boat or aircraft, it cant cross in front of someone's port side...
Lack of Oxygen is more than likely your problem.
Do you smoke? this makes a big difference for your lungs to absorb O2.
Exercise regularly? this also is a factor for your body to process 02 into your blood..
If it's realy bad you can get 02 tanks or 02 bags at many medical supply stores in kunming.
Aviation rules applied to civil LAW requires oxygen for pilots flying ( in unpressurised aircraft) over 3000 meters MSL ....Kunming is at 1800meters mean sea level.
No results found.
Overall good selection for creating basic "heavy / thick / bulky" furniture.
Clean, quiet, everything I needed, good location, well priced.
Went the other night, it was very late therefore I cant coment on the food but it did smell very good..
Cozy atmosphere and very friendly host.
Will return again now that it's found!
Icing on the cake for Kunming as a concept!

NGO sues Yunnan dam developer over environmental degradation
Posted byGeologically, the Yangtze (Jinsha) river used to flow in this valley until the upwards thrust of the yunnan plateau diverted the Yangtze towards shanghai where it presently flows. Sediments cores provide an 11 million year date for the divergence.

Posted by@ Bilingualexpat my thoughts exactly, but in addition, it may show how important Yunnan was in the copper and tin trade, aka bronze trade via rivers flowing to southern cities such as Ankor Watt and other sea side trade centers.
Paragliding high above Tiger Leaping Gorge
Posted byKC430,
You are correct on photos....
These mountains had never been flown above their summits with a paraglider wing' let alone cross the gorge and continue to Shangrila in a narrow and marginal weather window. Many in china claimed it was impossible but i knew it's no different than any other location on this planet..
It's sad a few uneducated police officers interpret and apply china's aviation laws to paragliding . The police interpret Nick flying a 747 towards the china/Tibet border but, officially; paragliding is recognized as a sport, not a full sized airplane by the Chinese government, including CAAC.
Nick is a very talented and experienced athlete, Thumbs up for Nick's route..
