Cliffs along the Shennong	A local guide on the Shennong	Locals along the Shennong	The shoe worn by one our trackers who are teams of barely-paid men, harnessed together to pull the boat upstream through the rapids	Paddling upstream to the head of the Shennong. The scenery is exquisite
Formations along the cliffs of the Shennong which are also pocked with post-holes marking the route of a Han-dynasty plank road, built for military access	Along the winding Shennong Stream	The trackers are paddling us up the Shennong Stream	Trackers paddling the sampan	Trackers getting sampan into position
Tracker on the Shennong	Our trackers have paddled our sampan up the Shennong until it has become narrow, very shallow and rocky with some rapids. They will now get out and pull us through the rapids.	Tracker pulling sampan	Trackers	Tracker pulling the sampan
