The mountains that Americans so often hiked near the remains of the American Camp Schiel rest camp, to the east of Kunming at the north end of Yangzonghai (阳宗海) lake, in 2007. At that time the rest camp had recently been abandoned by the PLA, who had used it for many years. Many of the buildings and pathways were the original structures from the WWII era. In another visit in 2015, it seemed the rest camp had been torn down.
