Building 'The Lodge' in Yunnan's rugged northwest
Posted byLove this article, thanks for writing about this. The trek from Dimaluo to Cizhong is beautiful, with two ~4000m passes between them. With Mathey's shelter project in Siwalongba (between the passes) and Hongxin's lodge in Rishatong (on the Mekong side), it's great to know it's possible to do this walk without having to carry so much equipment, or hiring mules to carry for you. Article didn't mention that Hongxin, a great fellow, also is making some very good wine.
