Spring in the depths of Yunnan's Jade Dragon Snow Mountain

During spring, nature stirs into activity, including flowers that burst into blossom despite the still-chilly weather of their mountainous habitat. The color green starts to blanket intertwined branches and lifeless bushes, bringing vitality to the depths of the wild.

These photos were taken along the narrow paths and trails criss-crossing the foothills of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in southwest China's Yunnan Province, showing lives waking up to the pleasant spring vibe.
