While exploring Google Earth I found what appeared to be an old road network that split off the Shaxi Forest Road (沙溪林道), which is located in Pingtung county, Taiwan. It appeared to be an old farmer road that possibly wound its way down the mountain, crossed a stream, then...
While scrolling through Google Earth, I spotted an old road leading down to what looked like an abandoned Forestry Bureau workstation off the Shaxi Forest Road (沙溪林道) in Pingtung. The satellite imagery told an interesting story—before Typhoon Morakot hit in 2009, there was a clear road leading straight there....
In this video I search for the reason why Neiwen Mountain was previously located along a nearby ridge and later moved to its current location. Neiwen Mountain (內文山), located in Shihzih Township, Pingtung County, Taiwan is shown at a different location according to a map from 1992. On many...
First and foremost, let me tell you that this route to WeiLiaoShan North Peak – 尾寮山北峰 is one that I created myself. You won’t find this hike anywhere else…probably. So take that as a warning. Having said that, it was a damn fun hike! And it had a little...
I was browsing some maps one day and noticed a peak named HuYaLuoShan East – 戶亞羅山東. I searched and found very little information about it. That really piqued my interest! What little I did find was too old to be completely accurate. So I did my homework, drew up...
If you’re visiting Duona Village – 多納, Duona Suspension Bridge – 多納高吊橋, or just looking for a quick hike with great views, then head on up to DeDeShan – 德德山 in Maolin District – 茂林區. A quick hike like this isn’t my usual type of thing. I’ll sometimes bundle...
It took me a while to write about this hike because the hiking portion of it wasn’t all that interesting; it was rather boring, truth be told. That’s a great opening line, huh? It really engages you, the reader – encouraging you to read on! But I cannot tell...
If you’re looking for an interesting day hike and don’t mind a bit of a drive, then give WoDanShan East Peak – 我丹山東峰 a try. By my guess it’s not particularly popular, but it holds some features that make it somewhat unique in my opinion. So let me tell...
“Three peaks to rule them all,” they said. No, they didn’t say that. I said it. Because this hike features three peaks, two of which aren’t terribly difficult to reach. One of them has a view that will make you not want to visit the other two. But you’ll...
Just north of the 9 (台9線) down south in Shihzih Township (屏東縣獅子鄉) you’ll find a couple overlooked little peaks by the names of ZhongXinLunSheShan and ZhongXingLunSheShan Southwest Peak – 中心崙社山 & 中心崙社西南山. I’ll be honest, there’s probably no reason for you to want to hike these peaks. I hiked...
