A young man in his twenties looks past me as we head towards opposite directions on Mount Emei. His 100+ pound load consists of dirt and sand – all of which are used to maintain and build new walking trails on Mount Emei (which is at an elevation of 3,099 meters (10,167 feet) – more than twice the height of the former World Trade Towers that stood at the heart of New York City). He makes less than US$1 an hour.
