Yak & Nak Peaks Day Hike

What a spectacularly successful day hike! We were blessed with perfect blue skies and incredible high-altitude weather. The energy across the team was fantastic from start to finish—Sandy even treated us to a spontaneous Peking Opera performance of "我家的表叔数不清" along the trail! Here is a recap of our trip memories.
