The developer and hero of starring in this documentary is one of my long-known friend Eben. He has been to China for now 10 years with the purpose of being involved development of rock climbing in China. He has been to several locations in Yunnan, Sichuan, Xinjiang and Nepal, living with his students above 5000 m.

Ping-Le Qinglong (Guangzhou Province) is 75 km south of Yangshou. Best way to go there is to rent a transport for 400 CNY and go with a group of climbers, as the location is quite remote. It is a full-body style of climbing on large Tufa holds. The routes range from 7c+ to 8c+, yet are not finally graded.
