We woke up around 1:00 to have a light breakfast at the canteen, and then resumed the climb at 2:00. The part of walking up to the summit is pretty daunting because of the steep hills, no harness and it'll be in the dark! But don't worry, all you need is a good headlight and gloves, so you can get a grip on the ropes and the rocky terrain, plus the mountain guides are with you ready to lend a hand when needed, all of them are super friendly and experienced! It's also super cold at the top, always 0 Celsius or lower.

If you want to catch the sunrise, do not arrive the summit too earlier or late, every month the sunrise is different timing, so in August 22nd sunrise is 6am.
If u arrive too early u will need to hide in a big rock to keep warm till the sunrise is out.
🌄
When u reach the summit, everyone is lining up for taking pictures, but this will not be easy and you have to be patient waiting in line, because is really freezing, especially when you take off your gloves. Pls bring a GoPro or something is long lasting battery camera, because of the cold, my iPhone shut down itself after taking the video of the sunrise.

We stayed up at the top around 30 minutes because the sunrise and scenery is magnificent! The moment is very touching and be proud of yourself! Born and brought up in Sabah, this is my first time and I successfully climbed up the highest mountain in south east Asia in my hometown!
💪🏼
Slowly walking down and you will realise how crazy the trails are, because u only see it when sun is out, during the climbing u won’t see anything because is dark!

rock climbing gloves 在 Priscilla I'Anson - Fashion Stylist Facebook 的最佳解答
This is my guide, Mr. Yang. He grew up in Tiger Leaping Gorge, in a small town next to Haba Village and has been guiding people up Haba Snow Mountain safely for many years. I could not have made it up the mountain without Mr. Yang; failure rates of those seeking to summit range between 30-60%, due to altitude sickness, bad weather or fitness level. Towards the beginning of our ascent on summit day, once we reached the big rock slab, my pacing was too fast and he noticed that I was getting tired quickly. He told me to slow down, enjoy the experience of being on the mountain and take smaller, slower steps. Several times, on the glacier, the strong 50-60km/h gusts of wind quite literally knocked me over; Mr. Yang held my hand and hooked his arm around mine to ensure my safety. About one-third of the way up the mountain, I realised my gloves were not thick enough and I started to feel the painful onset of potential frostbite in my fingers; Mr. Yang gave me his gloves. After climbing the glacier, about two-thirds of the way up to the summit, at the base of the snow slope, he told me leave my summit pack there and pick it up on the way back down, in order to lighten my load; Mr. Yang carried my water for me to the summit. Throughout the ascent, as the winds grew stronger and the slopes steeper (it was a 60-degree gradient on the snow slope and there were no fixed lines set up yet to attach yourself to for safety), he would say to me, "Don't worry, let's just keep going and enjoy the mountain for as long as we can. If the winds become too dangerous, we will turn back. Remember, it's not about summiting the mountain, but about enjoying the experience." At the summit, in the freezing cold, he took off his gloves and quickly snapped a few pictures of me to remember, before ushering me back down the mountain before the winds got stronger. He taught me so many lessons that day that I will never forget, but most of all, it was the first time in my life that I was truly able to live in the present, let go of the outcome, and just focus on the beauty of each moment 🌟 #travel #wanderlust #yunnan #mountaineering #habasnowmountain #priscillaspicks @ Haba Snow Mountain
