DaFeng (Big Peak) of Mount Siguniang is 5038 meters. From Haizigou of Rilong town to the Peak, the mountain path is about 23.8 kilometers, with the absolute height of over 1800 meters. Along the mountain path, the water supply is sufficient, and the entire route has no dangerous section. Under normal climate: there is seven months of snow period from December to June on the Peak, but there is no snow accumulation from July to November during summer and autumn. As the snow line is shorter and the altitude is comparatively lower than the other majority of the snow-capped peaks, the physical demand is only required to be standard level (with the premise of normal physical condition and no altitude sickness). And the snow technical requirements are not too strict, so DaFeng (Big Peak) of Mount Siguniang is definitely the best place to climb a snow-capped mountain for climbers.
Siguniang mountain area is located in the transition region from subtropical monsoon climate to the continental plateau climate. Due to the weather is cool in summer and cold in winter on the plateau terrain, and because of year-round dry, low rainfall and annual precipitation of 1100 to 1600 milliliters, the precipitation is mainly in the rainy season (in May). The mountain natural vertical band is very representative. The temperature changes rapidly, four seasons are not very obvious, but the daily range of temperature is obvious, sometimes up to more than 20℃.The annual evaporation is 1500 millimeters, the frost-free period is 220 days, the annual average temperature is 12.2 °C, and the annual lighting is 2214 hours.
Mountain Siguniang is a typical plateau climate, such as cool morning and evening, midday heat, starry night, as well as blue sky, white clouds and fresh air. However, due to the high altitude, there will be different degrees of altitude sickness for most people.
