Some say that Mt. Minya Konka has blocked all the winds in Sichuan because it is too high. It is also the king of all those mountains, standing high in the southwest of Kangding county. But the king is not really a show-off peak, surrounded by few other high peaks more than 6000M, it's not easy to find a good view point of this holy peak. Yaha Mountain Pass, we have heard of this place thousand times from local Tibetans. Finally, we set off for the best view point of Mt. Minya Konka in early spring.
