On wind-scoured grasslands where Red Army troops trekked 90 years ago during the Long March, ethnic Tibetan postman Lhalung Dorje brings postal service to remote herding communities in Sichuan province.

He covers the 3,500-meter-high "Long March mail route" in Zoige county, braving blizzards and boggy marshland through all seasons. Over 19 years on the job, he has logged nearly 580,000 kilometers and delivered more than 5 million pieces of mail without a single mistake, embodying the Long March spirit as a tireless messenger across the grasslands.
