Day 3 looking at another mountain range away from the canyon

Waterfall along the trail

Looking back through the canyon near Tina’s guesthouse

Bamboo forest along the trail

Deepest and narrowest part of the canyon.  Probably a thousand feet down and only a hundred or so feet wide

Terraced farms

Looking downriver through the gorge. Very sparsely populated in this area

Beautiful!

View from the veranda at Halfway guesthouse, where we spent 3 nights

View from our room’s window

Looking north away from the canyon

Halfway house couryard with corn drying

Lunch at Tea Horse guesthouse.

Along the trail

Naxi guesthouse. Very much a working farm. We slept over the animal stalls. $1.20 per night and about the same for dinner
