Back to those burning hills

I spent Tuesday afternoon hiking in Huoyanshan 火炎山, those barren-looking hills that can be seen next to the No. 1 Freeway 中山高速公路 as you're driving north into Sanyi 三義. Appearances can be deceiving as there are plenty of trees (and birds). People, on the other hand, can be pleasantly few and far between - in four hours of walking, I saw only one other hiker out there. Best of all, there were tantalizing hints of unexplored trails, something to look forward to on my next visit.
