When I made my first self-drive trip to the foot of the sacred Mount Kailash, the sun was already setting. I pulled over from Highway 219 and stepped onto the grassy meadow to capture the western sunset. A heavy cloud rolled in from the direction of Mount Kailash, and the sunset first painted it gold, then slowly deepened to reddish-brown.
