At 7:42 in the morning of August 23, after climbing in the dark for nearly 4 hours, I finally reached the main peak of Syue Mountain. It is the second highest mountain in Taiwan with an altitude of 3886 meters. The weather was clear and I was very lucky to meet a beautiful, clean lenticular cloud in the blue sky and mountains. It looked like a hat, and very much like a UFO.
