#trlt a2: I don't have pics of it here as they're all physical (and therefore 260 miles away) but the highest I've been is 'a shade under 4,000m', in Sichuan Province, China, when I was on a tour there in September 2002.
I don't *think* I've ever breached 4km.

replying to @TheTravelCamel
@TheTravelCamel Most Scottiish footpaths I've been on have been much milder, and even that steep section on the WHW was a two-off. Two short steep sections in 96 miles isn't too bad bearing in mind it's full of mountains.
