photo: Dizzying Heights - This panorama was taken in the open area fronting the highest shelter in Seoraksan National Park (소락산). In the panorama, the peak to the left of the shelter (without the white spheres) is the highest point (대청봉) in the entire park at an under-appreciated 1709m. And the spheres or more accurately, geodesic domes, if I may? I don't know their function. I was too tired, hungry and stinky to risk expending more energy asking what seemed at the time, a useless question. A good guess is that it has to do with meteorology but my mind's buggy from staring at a computer screen all day that I wouldn't suggest believing me at the moment.
