Road from Kangding to Litang

Our 8-hour bus ride to Litang on a bumpy, dusty one-lane highway. We reached an altitude of almost 5000m and the Tibetan homes that lined the highway were no longer wooden (as we were way above the tree line, we think). A painful drive for the 7 passengers aboard the bus, but well worth it for the scenery alone. The destination made us forget the ride ever happened.
