Chapitre 117: Shuimogou

Bogda Shan covered a vast area as large as 1700 square km. The entire mountain area could be divided into three sections by the altitudes.

The section from 700 to 1700 meters above the sea level was the highland area of the front range, which was rich in minerals and covered by luxuriant forests. It was the most important resource output area in Dakang.

The section with an elevation of 1700 to 2800 meters was the mid-mountain zone consisting mainly of summer pastures and tourist sites. This section was where Tianchi was situated.

Above that was the section with an elevation of over 2800 meters, which was covered with snow all year round and where glaciers could be found. Various rivers that ran through Dakang originated from here.

Bogda Peak stood towering above them all, with a height of 5445 meters.
