| Heuiyang-san Remote and "Forbidden" Mountain in the "hairpin" sector of the Baekdu-daegan Mountain-System 998 meters high including Guwang-bong 900m, Shiru-bong 914m and Iman-bong 991m |
| Steep, pyramidal Heuiyang-san in September 2012, shot by Roger Shepherd in 2010. The highly-auspicious name 曦陽山 means "Sunshine-Yang Mountain", connoting a very strong brightness, the yang here being that of the yin-yang [eum-yang in Korean] philosophical duality. It is honored as one of the Seonjong Gusan [9 Holy Zen-sect Buddhist Mountains]. |

| Heuiyang-san is generally closed to hikers, to protect its nature and also the extreme isolated sanctity of Bongam-sa Monastery on its southern foot. This photo of the back of Roger Shepherd, by Andrew Douch, shows the point on the current Baekdu-daegan Trail that is as close as we are now allowed to get. |
| The beautiful Bongam-sa Gyegok scenic-gorge on Heuiyang-san's southern foot is closed to the public every day of the year except the Buddha's Birthday Holiday, to protect the extreme isolated sanctity of the nearby intensive-meditation temple. Great photo by Robert Koehler. |
| The very large relief-carved Amita Buddha in the Bongam-sa Gyegok scenic-gorge; I don't yet know when it was carved or what its Treasure designation is. |
