Yesterday I experienced what was probably the most grueling and intense outdoor experience of my life. It was a feat of endurance such that had it been my first time mountain climbing, I would have certainly been overcome. I would have sat down on the trail and refused to go any farther. The only thing is that there was nowhere to sit down. It was a 5 hour ascent, with the angle almost never dropping below 45 degrees. Though mostly dense forest, the summit of the mountain was an almost vertical crag of brittle rock, about 50m high.
Here are some pictures, in no particular order:
The following to pictures are the same, but the second one is zoomed in on the center of the first picture. The second picture shows the village of Llifen in more detail.
