When the car started skidding backwards over the snowy road, we decided to get off. By the time we jumped on, we were very cold and just hoped the driver would manage to get us over Zheduo Pass.
We had some brief stops on our way, quickly taking pictures and cursing the weather that had been so bad for us these last days. We had not seen one mountain peak other than those we saw in the beautiful picture books we had studied, and this last day did not seem to be any better. Now, as the jeep climbed up, we were at least sure that we would see the first snow of the season, in the second week of September. When it came, it came suddenly; at first, we saw some delicate white patches scattered in the landscape, but soon, we were driving in a white landscape. The road went always higher from here, and the landscape even whiter. At a certain point, the wheels of the jeep started to spin without having any grip on the road, and then the jeep started to skid towards the edge of the road.
