There is signal only at Orchid Plateau ②The pace of high-altitude hiking is very important! We walked up the mountain too fast and felt fine, but got altitude sickness after being exposed to the wind on the summit, and ended up staggering back... One must respect nature to be accepted by it ③Take your trash with you!! We picked up trash all along the way. Those with low manners who eat self-heating hotpot on the summit and then litter do not deserve to visit such a beautiful place
