Haba Snow Mountain (Chinese: 哈巴雪山; pinyin: Hābā Xǔeshān; lit. 'Haba Snow Mountain') is a mountain rising above the northwest side of Tiger Leaping Gorge in Yunnan, China. It rises opposite the higher Yulong Xueshan, and towers 3,500 metres above the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, also known as the Jinsha River.[3] The summit of the mountain is a popular destination for amateur mountaineers and its lowest slopes are crossed by the popular Tiger Leaping Gorge trail.
