Cooking is the most difficult thing for Du because there is no electricity and water at the observatory station.

Du has to carry food - mainly dry vegetables, potatoes and pickles - from the foot of the mountain to the top every two weeks.

Still, to Du, this challenge doesn't compare the loneliness he has to bear.

"I have nobody to talk to," he said.
