June 7, 2025, Day 3 of the trip. The day to meet Cheonji from the North Slope of Mt. Baekdu~ I tried the North Slope climb of Mt. Baekdu, but unfortunately it snowed, so I couldn't get a proper view of Cheonji. ๐Ÿ”๏ธ The scenery of Mt. Baekdu covered in white snow was truly beautiful, but the magnificent sight of Cheonji will have to wait for another chance.... ๐Ÿ˜ญ Still, I'm glad I got to feel a bit of Mt. Baekdu's beauty. If I get the chance, I definitely want to visit again next time and see the wonderful sight of Cheonji!

Since it was Saturday and the weekend, a lot of Chinese domestic tourists came to visit too. There were really, really so many of them... haha

Unlike the West Ridge Course, the North Ridge Course takes you by car almost all the way to the summit. However, the road is steep and winding, so you might experience motion sickness. If you think you may need it, it's a good idea to take motion sickness medicine beforehand.

I wanted to take a photo in front of the Heaven and Earth commemorative stone, but people were pushing so hard... I just quickly snapped a photo of the stone and left. In our country, we'd have lined up and waited our turn to take photos, but in China there's no such thing... lol

I arrived at Cheonji, but... it was hidden by snow and clouds so I couldn't see it...ใ… ใ…  It was a cold and disappointing trip to the North Slope.
