Good to "meet" you! :b<br /><br />Re snakes: I think I have a phobia of them because years ago, a rattlesnake actually, literally, went over my foot (when I was doing archaeology field work in Colorado). Still, it's true enough that it didn't bite me.

They generally hear you coming and are gone long before you can see them. <br /><br />If you start up the mountain from the trail that leads directly from Sok Kwu Wan there is little problem route finding.

Snakes are NOT among my favorite creatures to encounter on a hike -- and I've already seen more cobras (just one, actually) than I want to see while hiking in Hong Kong! :SYTSLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930487923185001591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-39354172275711255012011-05-04T01:47:46.327+08:002011-05-04T01:47:46.327+08:00One of our favorite "walks" in HK.

Once on the way down he came to the trail through some scrub area.

The funny thing is that I think my hiking photo-essay from two weeks ago actually had the best photos... but it has attracted zero appreciative comments stating that (thus far)!<br /><br />http://webs-of-significance.blogspot.com/2011/04/from-violet-hill-down-to-stanley-via.html<br /><br />Hi ewaffle --<br /><br />Thanks once again for noticing something that I&YTSLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930487923185001591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-81684671415263222832011-05-03T11:40:57.875+08:002011-05-03T11:40:57.875+08:00An interesting and possibly telling detail in the ...An interesting and possibly telling detail in the picture with the pavilion obscuring part of the cement works--there seems to be a full but not overflowing trash receptacle at the bottom of the stairs. In almost every place I can think of in the U.S. that trash can would be surrounded by cups, wrappers, bags, etc. since the custom here is to toss waste in the general direction of the can.
