    The density of housing here is just amazing.
    At the base of the Juyong Pass of the Great Wall.Look how organized, well-mannered and coordinated these school kids are!Some temporary artist installation. (Looks like a bottle opener to me.)One must descend before ascending. :)Pre-descent pic.The objective in the distance.Mark's down there at the wall intersection.Almost there . . .Proof of life -- we made it!To hinder advancement of invaders, the steps were built of varying heights.We didn't have time to see if we could do this side ... probably a good thing.A good warning to heed BEFORE attempting this endeavor.
