Through the checkpoint at Taroko Gorge. We had a one hour window to get there.
The national park was deserted and we had the entire park to ourselves. Something about a recent earthquake? You were allowed in btw
50km of downhill!
Road looked a bit unpassable from this angle
But had been cleared
Clouds rolling in
No cars/buses the whole way
With no tourists and the 7-11 closed, this monkey unlike the others came up, flexed and tried to reach into my snack bag on the bike. Rude.
arrived. These slippers hurt
