A little hit, but miraculous place in the Yunnan Province is Tiger Leaping Gorge — a brutal, but ridiculously gorgeous, two-day trek that takes you above, and then in, one of the world’s deepest canyons. Just got back from two glorious days spent scrambling and shuffling along this amazing ridge. A few pics from the trek:

(Quitao, the town at the entrance of the gorge)

(One of three small villages you pass along the way)

(There are a lot of amazing, but sheer, drop offs along the way)

(Walking on the interior of the canyon after climbing down a steep series of steps and ladders)

(Leaving, the edge of the gorge, where the river widens)
