Meili Xue Shan (Chinese 梅里雪山, translation: "Mainri snowy range") or Mainri Snow Mountain ({{bo|t=སྨན་རི།}}) is a mountain range in the Chinese province of Yunnan. It lies close to the northwestern boundary of the province and is bounded by the Salween River on the west and the Mekong on the east.[1] The Meili are subrange of the larger Nu Mountains, themselves a constituent range of the Hengduan group.

The crest of the range rises to over {{convert|6000|m|ft}} above sea level, making for impressive prominence over the river valleys to the east and west, which are between {{convert|1500|m|ft}} and {{convert|1900|m|ft}} in elevation. The highest peak is Kawagebo, which rises to {{convert|6740|m|ft}}. Kawagebo is considered sacred for Tibetan Buddhists. Other significant peaks include Mianzimu, Cogar Laka and Jiariren-an. Because of restrictions and dangerous conditions, none of the major peaks in the range have ever been summited.

In January 1991, six Chinese and eleven Japanese mountaineers lost their lives to an avalanche, one of the worst climbing accidents in China.{{Citation needed|date=January 2015}}
