Rescuers are competing against time to clear the road leading to the heart of quake-hit Nyalam County in Tibet.
Aftershocks continue to be felt following yesterday's devastating earthquake, including one earlier today that was measured with a magnitude of 5.3.
Three sections of the No. 318 highway connecting Nepal and China were blocked by landslides, though two reopened this morning.
The third section is still being cleared.
This worker describes the mess that is being cleared from the roadway.
"There are many huge rocks. The landslide amounts to about 2,500 cubic meters. So, we have to explode the huge rocks. The explosives and detonator are on the way here, but we cannot tell when they will arrive."
The clearing work is expected to be finished later today.
