But at the same time, the task of stopping deforestation is also more arduous. In the past, because of the traffic conditions, gamu township has always been the most inaccessible Township in Suo county. After the completion and opening of Rongbu Xichang gamu highway in 2004, the traffic conditions of the township have been greatly improved and the communication with the outside world has increased. However, it is still one of the three townships that can only be opened seasonally in the county.
