Great pic Skip. Screaming shame we won’t protect our border here.

Ditto, thanks for sharing! Can you tell us what portion of the wall this is? I was in Beijing in June, and visited the Mu Tian Yu site. Regretably, I only had my iPhone to capture the scenery.
Going into that visit, I had a dramatically insufficient understanding of just how much hiking one has to do to first get up the mountain to the wall (at that site, at least), then all the additional up/down hiking one does on the wall itself. To get a shot from that vantage point, I expect your legs were pretty well-exercised!

A great wall built at the expense of many lives. Beautiful shot indeed.
A marvel!!
