For example, in Xiaota, it's hot at 9 am at the service area, but by 11 am at General's Bridge, the wind is strong and you need to change into a thick coat. After climbing for a while, you switch to a thin coat, but at the mountain top, you need the three-in-one again because the wind is so strong. Going down, it gets hot again, and it starts raining at 3:30 pm, getting heavier and heavier, making the road very muddy. Mud covers the shoes, and at General's Bridge, you wait for the electric car for 3 hours under an umbrella, but the wind is too strong for the umbrella to be effective, and you end up freezing numb.
