We have finally marked off one of our top bucket list items in China, hiking the Tiger Leaping Gorge or 虎跳峡 in Yunnan, China! It was such an incredible experience hiking it, especially since it was only us and a few other people (we basically had the full gorge to ourselves!).

This is our first day on our hike, join us next week as we share our second day hiking, were things got a little scary.
