From Kashgar to Lhasa the route seems to be passable by 4WD. But today I got a message from Lhasa: "...let you know that the road between Tibet and Yunnan is under repaired and are not available for tourism until this December, Bad news! Did anybody try the alternative Lhasa to Sichuan route? Is it as attractive as the road to Yunnan?

I have put up a message to 32000 of my Tibetian friends. Perhaps one will contact us or a few join GLOBOsapiens? :-) http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/9374/globotibet.jpg --- Rudolf "Rangutan" Graspointner Reply    Reply with quote    Contact rangutan   wojtekd Premium account Joined: Oct 02 Points: 74870 Posts: 411 Posted: 2010-06-12 22:06:00    Ooops! Another bad news from Lhasa: "...the repaired road is from to Yelashan to Paksho and Niutagou to Zhongba, it will affect both tour from Yunnan to Tibet and Sichuan to Tibet..." So it seems that I must postpone my project for the next year... Anybody interested to join me in 2011? Thanks Rudi for your help - so far no info through this channel...

I heard nothing either, suppose only GLOBIES travel and most stay at home :-( Seems this 4x4 tour was done earlier this year: http://www.raids4x4.com/article/articleview/241/1/221 --- Rudolf "Rangutan" Graspointner Reply    Reply with quote    Contact rangutan
