I like to drive along the alpine road and to see the mountain’s view. This time, I came to Wuling (武嶺) with some friends and tried the first climb of life, Acacia Hill (HehuanMountain) - main peak (3,421 meters). The peak is above 3,000 meters altitudes. Because of alpine roads that make climbing high altitude mountains easier.
We parked the car in the Wuling parking lot, and went down along the road to the entrance. The trail is flat asphalt pavement and easy for people to climb. However, along with the pace, my breathing more and more rapid, I feel that I could not breathe oxygen. I asked someone else to know that I have to slow down the breathing rate until I return to normal breathing.
The temperature today is very low and foggy. We are lucky to see the snow has not yet melted. The best time to visit main peak is May and June when it will be warmer and full of azaleas. Beautiful things are always worth looking forward. This is my first high altitude mountain climbing and I expect to come back soon.
