1. Siguniang Mountain is located at the junction of Xiaojin County and Wenchuan County, Aba Prefecture, Sichuan Province. It consists of four peaks covered by ice and snow all year round. The four peaks are lined up from right to left in the picture below. Girl (Snow Mountain). They are the eldest girl, the second girl, the third girl and the fourth girl. Outdoor circles call it: Dafeng, Erfeng, Sanfeng and Yaomeifeng. Yaomei Peak, with an altitude of 6256 meters, is the highest peak of the Minshan Mountains. It is also known as Shu Mountain (the king of Shu Mountain is Gongga with an altitude of 7556 meters). They are lined up within a range of 3-5 kilometers from north to south. Their heights are 6250 meters, 5355 meters, 5276 meters and 5038 meters respectively. Yaomei Peak is the highest peak in Aba Prefecture and enjoys the reputation of "Queen of Shu Mountain". The Siguniang Peak we climbed this time is 5,038 meters above sea level and is called the entry-level peak in the snow-capped mountains by outdoor organizations.

2. In the past, to go to Siguniang Mountain, you had to cross Balang Mountain. The Balang Mountain Pass, the highest point of the highway, is very beautiful, but now the Balang Mountain Tunnel is open to traffic. After passing through a short, dark cave with no lights, I finally saw the words "Balang Mountain Tunnel" vaguely. To the right of the tunnel entrance was the original road over the pass. For safety reasons, I entered the tunnel honestly. The total length of the Balang Mountain Tunnel is 7,980 meters. It really turns a chasm into a thoroughfare. After exiting the tunnel, it can only be described as a sudden enlightenment. Due to the lowered terrain and the blocking effect of the mountains, the sun shines into the car again, and after turning a few corners, the true appearance of Siguniang Mountain appears before us without any warning - the Maobi Bridge Observation Deck has arrived. The blue sky is like a wash, and the white clouds are like pictures. The four girls are sitting dignifiedly in the distance. No matter how beautiful the legend is, they can't describe their charming faces. There are many people parking at the Maobi Bridge Observation Deck, and it is indeed a good place to have a full frontal view. After arriving here, the rest of the journey became a lot easier. A short walk down the winding mountain road, we entered Siguniang Mountain Town, where there were gradually more houses and people. Because March is the off-season, it is still a little deserted, but a little less hustle and bustle is not necessarily a good thing for us.

3. There are more than 70 snow-capped mountains in the entire Siguniang Mountain area. Currently, there are three ditches available for general tourists to visit: Shuangqiao Valley, Haizi Valley and Changping Valley. You need to buy tickets for the three ditches separately, and they have different entrances. After crossing Balang Mountain and approaching Siguniang Mountain Town, you will pass the gas station and you will find the mouth of Haizi Valley. If you continue going forward, turn right at the bridgehead in the town and enter the mouth of Changpinggou. Shuangqiao Gou Mougou is about 7 kilometers away after passing Siguniang Town and then towards Xiaojin County. If you ask local guides which ditch is the most beautiful, their answer is almost 100% that it is Haizigou. If you believe them and go in rashly, you may be disappointed. This is not to say that Haizigou is not beautiful, but there are others that are more beautiful than him!

4. Hiking Changping Valley: Changping Valley is mainly an ecological tour. The original plant species in the ditch are very rich and the vegetation is well preserved. In the vast stretches of primeval forest, there are tall and straight ancient cypresses, dense green pine branches and lush leaves, dense fir trees and willows, blocking out the sky and the sun. The length from the mouth of the ditch to the end of the ditch is 29 kilometers. Generally, if you only have one day to complete the entire distance on foot, you must camp. You can choose to hike or ride a horse when visiting Changpinggou according to your physical strength and preferences. Starting from the Lamasery, riding a horse costs 50 yuan to Erdaoping, 100 yuan to Xiaganhaizi, and 150 yuan to Lianghekou. These are all It's the price, if you want to go further, you can bargain with the groom. Many people worry that they do not know how to ride a horse or that it is dangerous to ride a horse. In fact, the horses in Siguniang Mountain are very docile and are used to carrying tourists for a long time, and they are very orderly. If you are afraid, you can have a groom hold the rope. If you are walking in Changpinggou, you can start from the Lama Temple and go to the Dead Tree Beach. There are planks along the whole journey, which is easier to walk. However, if you want to continue walking, the road will be bad. I caught up with the rain that day, although it was not very heavy, it rained from time to time. But it didn't affect my interest at all. In order to take pictures more conveniently, I walked further and further...

5. Siguniang Mountain in autumn and winter: Walking on the Oriental Holy Mountain, I suddenly saw the colorful scenery. The autumn scenery crosses over to the vast snowscape, and the world of ice and snow is coming. There, there are the colorful colors of autumn and the coolness of the high autumn air. Especially at the moment when the fallen leaves are flying, there is also the romance of the blending of autumn and winter.

Snow scenery and autumn scenery coexist. An autumn snow scenery makes the place beautiful. The colorful woods and white snow in the mountains and forests complement each other like a natural ink painting. Looking from the top of the mountain, the wind is blowing and the sea of ??clouds is floating on the mountainside, dividing the majestic mountain range into upper and lower parts. The upper part is the vast rime, and the lower part is the red and yellow colors of late autumn. It is really a beautiful scene! The blue sky and the colorful forests all over the mountains and plains, God seems to have spread a palette here and painted it colorfully. The colorful forests at the foot of the mountain and the white snow on the mountain are so colorful. The autumn wind is blowing all over the mountain, and the thousands of cliffs and valleys are full of colors.

Pull away the clouds and mist, and stand in the blue sky and purple air. There is both the splendor of autumn and the purity of winter. It is a colorful fairy tale world. The Queen of Shushan is better to hear than to see. For many people who love to travel, her name is already familiar. They have heard about the beauty and holiness of the Queen of Shushan thousands of times, but nothing is as shocking and touching as standing in front of it. Here, there are beautiful mountains and clear waters, vast grasslands, and towering snow-capped mountains. The rivers are criss-crossed, integrating majesty, vastness, elegance and depth. The snow-capped mountains in the distance are even more majestic and dreamlike in the sunshine. The color of the lake changes with the seasons. No matter what season you come, you will encounter different scenery.
