Rescuers are repairing roads to the remote village in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region where a landslide killed 35 people.
Rescue vehicles were still about 20 km from the village as the road became impassible, local authorities said Friday night.
Rescuers have ridden donkeys or walked to the site with enough supplies to meet residents' need for a week.
The landslide, brought on by unusually heavy rain, struck the village in Kokyar Township in Yecheng County of Kashgar Prefecture early on Wednesday morning.
The landslide buried or damaged dozens of houses and cut off roads, electricity and telecommunications, complicating rescue efforts and making it hard to follow the progress of the disaster and rescue work.
Residents from nearby villages used donkeys to carry emergency supplies.
The village, which sits in a valley deep in the Kunlun Mountains, has more than 110 households and is about 170 km from the county seat.
