Oh, and the guy at Halfway House said foreigners can hike the High Path through the gorge
A family member who speaks Chinese did a limited phone survey of lodging in Lijiang area on June 1.
Haba Snow Mt Inn is not yet receiving foreigners. The owner reports that village residents are fearful of foreigners who might carry in virus with them. Even if a guest house was willing to accept them, there could be pushback from the residents. Reportedly, foreigners may arrive in the village, just not spend the night there. The owner reported they can stay at Base Camp on the mountain.
Other locations surveyed:
Halfway Guest House in Tiger Leaping Gorge--open to foreigners
International Youth Hostel Lijiang--open
大港旺宝酒店(Da Gang Wang Bao Hotel) in Lijiang, 5-star--open
柳智别院 (The Hideaway) in Lijiang)--open
The following were open at some point in May, but are now closed to foreigners as of June 1:
Mama Naxi Guest House in Lijiang-closed to foreigners
琦萍酒店(Qi Ping Hotel) in Lijiang--closed
Better call in advance for status update before going.

Don't know about travel, but my wife contacted Haba Snow Mountain Inn, a popular hostel in Haba Village, on April 23. They were not permitted to accommodate foreigners as of that date. She asked them to notify when they open to foreigners. Will report any news that I hear.
No results found.
Paragliding high above Tiger Leaping Gorge
发布者Rugged country, beautiful pics. Nice to see these fabulous mountains from above.
I'm trying to identify the mountains shown. The top photo with the article title overlaid, is Haba Snow Mountain I'm pretty sure, based on comparison with photos I've taken from the ground.
The photo above "How do you feel about flying in such challenging locations? " shows Haba Snow Mountain on the left, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain on the right. In the foreground is Haba's south ridge.
The last pic, Nick's selfie, I think shows Haba Snow Mountain in the background.

Summiting Yunnan's majestic Haba Snow Mountain
发布者You can hire a guide through any of the many guest houses in Haba Village. The author of the article stayed at Haba Snow Mountain International Youth Hostel, which is also known as Haba Snow Mountain Inn. You can find contact info at the Haba article at www.WikiVoyage.org. The "lady who owns the hostel" is Yang Xiu Lan (杨修兰). She is very helpful and gracious, even speaks a little English, with emphasis on little. Additional info on climbing the mountain can be found at www.ItinerantClimbersCollective.com, especially useful for those who who want to make the ascent on their own without guides (this assumes they already have experience with ice axe and glacier travel). The author climbed the mountain in December which is definitely off-season, and the prices mentioned are on the low side. During the standard climbing season costs are higher.
