Mountain After Mountain
... very bumpy as it can get. During the journey can see China government is working hard to upgrade the road to Meili Snow Mountain but mountaintop has it uncontrollable and predictable, landslide is an happening event which can be happened any day and any time. The usable road can be unpassagable next minutes, there is why some portions of the road are bumppy due to re-route or upgrading.
