Would you brave this descent? Huangshan, China
>>217210476Sure. Why doesn't he just stand up and walk though? That's snow, not ice.
>>217210476>HuangshanIs that the mountain where the sect of plum blossom sword is located in these shit murim novels?
Yes but I'd go down backwards, with a short grip on poles for 3 points contact at all times, making deliberate footholds. That way I'd have a better chance of protecting my head from making contact with the ground and a better chance of arresting a slide. I can't quite tell but it looks like he has micro-spikes on his boots, that's good. That or full crampons. I might be over-cautious here but I've tumbled about 10m down a steep slope before and would have gone a lot further if I hadn't stopped by half grabbing half crashing in to some exposed stone. It hurt a lot and I bashed my knee quite bad, which swelled, and bruised my ribs. I probably wouldn't go to fucking China, though. It may have some nice land but it's a total bugman country (worse than the UK even).
