四川康定贡嘎山各种形式的穿越无可置疑的是国内徒步爱好者最喜爱的路线之一。它以沿线众多气势雄伟的山脉,连续不断的各种高山景色而著称。我早就为之所动,几年前曾花了近一年的时间在8264收集资料和作线路的准备,并在2011年的6月初作了我第一次的穿越尝试。但最后因高反等原因而未能成功。我为之非常的后悔和懊恼。这个情结一直在我的心上。今年的早些时候,我又萌发了去四川西部背包徒步的念头,实际上是个更大徒步计划中的一个阶段。我因此从国外带回几乎所有的背包徒步行装,并花费了相当的时间作线路上的准备。我于2014年6月25日至7月3日完成了四川康定贡嘎山的单人背包徒步穿越,没有借助向导人员和马匹。这条步行的线路为康定县城>榆林村>日乌且沟>上日乌且垭口>莫溪沟>下次梅村>草科村。全程距离大约为100公里。除了一整天在下次梅村的村民忠一家的休整外,其间共用时七天半的时间。徒步期间天气的基本特征为每天都有降雨,没有固定的时间,时早时晚;而且我感觉在白天里比几年前的那次徒步更频繁。从老榆林村至下次梅村,加上巴望海以东几公里均为人畜小道,令我有点吃惊,尽管每天有不少的降雨,但路面却相当的硬实;偶尔出现的泥潭稍微绕道就能解决。至于沿途的水源和涉水过溪的细节,我将在每天的纪实里更详细地说明。我的背包徒步线路和每天的营地或住地。我在2014年6月23日下午5点多钟搭乘去四川成都的火车。我从南京站出发,第二天中午就到了成都站。我出了成都站后,赶紧往附近不远处的成都城北汽车中心走去,想购买12点钟去康定的班车。幸运的很,车站仍然有余票。国道G318与往常一样,因修筑隧道,在这些地方车辆只能单向行驶,堵车耗时很利害,确又无能为力。这样我又花上了10个小时,在下着大雨的夜里来到了康定县城。我随即在康定县城的哈达客栈住下。在去康定县城途中的路旁。第一天 2014年6月25日起点 康定城哈达客栈,海拔高度2554m (手表读数8380')启程时间 945 AM终点 格西草原,海拔高度3572m (手表读数11720')扎营时间 445 PM当日行程 20公里(+/-)天气 白天多云到晴,夜里小雨~中雨。我的背包徒步线路和每天的营地或住地。我昨晚在康定县城的哈达客栈住下,12点钟以后才休息。我早上6点多钟起来,明显休息得不够。我有意再在康定呆上一天,以消除旅途的疲劳和适应高原的海拔高度,但一早起来看见天空出现的蓝天,不禁改变了念头,决定慢慢地走,去更高的海拔进行调整。既然决定今天上路,就赶紧去超市买一些食品,后来证明是多余的,不过最后都送给见到的藏族同胞了。雨季里的河流水位暴涨,急冲而下,势不可挡。不得不承认,现代的工业能力使得其附近的人类文明得以长期地保存。康定县城依旧很漂亮。虽然有很多现代化的建筑,和外来文化的展露影响,但它在很多方面都非常体现出藏族文化的特色和风格。这个城市的格局,气候,海拔,四周的群山及人文等,一直都是我的喜爱。康定市区中心的街道,广场是我每次必去的地方。对我来说,两次来去匆匆,这里的一切都尚未仔细地探索,觉得很新奇,不知何时才能消除这样的感觉。简短的购物完毕后,在回客栈的路上,抓紧留下一些更多对康定的记忆。我以前没有注意到桥上的一组雕塑。它们具有历史上汉藏民族交流的主思想。此时相对于我夏季每天开始徒步的时间已经很晚了。我知道今天的路还很长,不敢多久留,赶紧回到了哈达客栈,吃了早饭,打点好行装,踏上了去贡嘎山的经典穿越。与我在8264所了解许多徒步朋友的做法不同,我从县城里开始步行,而不是从老榆林村的水电站开始。所以这增添了大概15公里的路途。但从缓慢地适应高海拔的意义上讲,我认为是还有益处的,同时又能省下单人包车的费用。国道G318公路进出康定城的这座桥梁是乎是城郊的分界点。看着天空的乌云,心里开始有点疑惑,毕竟是在雨季里。在刚才走过的右手路边上,碰见了一位昨天一起从成都搭车来这里的藏族同胞。在我打招呼后,他也认出了我来,显得非常的友善。我们彼此相互寒喧,握手道别。 离开了国道G318后,转上了去康定新城的岔道。我实在被路边正在修建的大型建筑所震惊,到处都是建筑工地。这一带可能是最后一片开发地区。我不是专家,但一直在思考在这多地震的川西地区,从安全角度来讲,修建高层建筑是否恰当。可能我的顾虑为多余的。与上次来这里一样,人们依然在路边放养马匹,但牦牛已经看不见了。显然动物数量上的减少意味着它们的生活环境的减小,和人类的开发活动的加大。此时道路坡度增加,我能感觉到我的行走速度开始有些缓慢,心里明白我的高反已经开始。不过从康定出来的行走是个慢慢的适应高海拔的过程。我的时间还算比较充裕,即使旅途的劳累还没有消除,只要不下大雨,今天走到预订的营地,格西草原应该没有问。虽然四周的景色依然不错,但这一带的土地开发规模却十分的惊人。康定的确是个居住生活的好地方。希望开发者在完成其项目后,尽量地将环境还原其本色。道路两旁的景色很漂亮,不过在天气晴朗的大道上行走的确有些乏味,尤其是日晒皮肤的感觉也来了。我的腿部和手部的晒伤就是从此时开始的。我十分缺智地假设川西雨季的白天以乌云天气为主,即使是出太阳,也为短时间的,紫外线对皮肤的伤害影响不大。所以在启程前的一两天,我决定不携带手套,和通常在这种情况下穿的帖身长内裤。幸好带着条两节速干裤,等到明天扎营时发现自己的双腿晒伤后,便赶紧穿上了。康定新城里的非常具有藏族特色的建筑。 回望康定县城。很多东西现在都在脚下了。环绕它四周的群山此时看得更加清楚。对生活在丘陵地带的我来说,这样的市镇座落是个很大的惊奇。而左手的山腰上的G318的交通清晰可见。我试着去辨认昨晚在哈达客栈结识的几个骑车去拉萨的年轻人,但根本做不到,只希望他们平安走运。康定新城的生活区旁一组反映当年汉藏贸易交往的历史人物的塑像,应该是茶马古道上的各种生活细节。 这俩兄弟的形像挺逼真的,很有色彩。 不小的队伍。好象比实物都大不少,蛮生动的。那石头上刻的字,"西出炉关" 不知意味着是否当年的茶马古道在此结束,再往西就纯粹是藏区了。康定新城的生活区。我在这分岔路口向几个过路人确认了去老榆林村的路。天热,口真渴,但带出来的两升水每时还必须谨慎地控制,不敢多喝。人的皮肤感到太阳的火辣,平时不太注意的我,尽找阴凉的地方走,但我还没有意识到皮肤实际上已经开始受伤了。 在回头朝康定县城方向看去。它已在山粱的背后了。可能是最后能国道G318的地方。还是想说,特喜欢这个被群山环抱的新城。高山前的康巴大酒店,很有异域的风格和特色。其色彩与背景天空调和得那么粉彩绚丽。想不到来自远方的宗教在这里偏僻的地方居然能够出现。这也充分体现了现在国家对宗教存在的容忍和民众信仰的多样化。又是一个密集的居民区和商业点。其附近还有一些政府的机构。这里是康定新城的边缘。我估量着该是午饭的时间,便坐在图片最左边楼前的路旁用餐。好奇的人过来问我的情况。我如实回答他们。我知道今天的饮水很多,便向一家作街门销售的老板们讨水。他们爽快的答应了我,确实给我补充了很多的水。要不然再往前走几十米就出康定新城,以后向藏族老乡讨水就更难了。所以以后若再重复这里过程的话,考虑到天气,气温,和防止高反用水,我至少要带3升水。从国道G318分岔到去新城的路上后大部分为国家机构,店几乎没有。只有新城生活区里沿途才有几家便利店。我非常感谢给我水的老板夫妇。当然出城后也可以去沿途村里的小卖部买水或向老乡讨水。虽然不如上次见到的人多,我一路还是碰见了好几位老乡,非常的好,肯定会帮助解决水的问的。沿途的乡村景色。沿途的乡村景色。 可喜地看到当地的居民也种植一些农作物,以补充食物的来源。嗨,居然还有车站。我想可能是连接榆林村与康定市区的班车。当然还有小卖部,但我没有上前探询,不知是否营业。路边景色第一次提醒我今后的几天里我所大概要见到的。 路上遇见一位才从山里干完活回家的藏族妇女。她很健谈,汉语也说得很好。我们一路聊了好一会儿,直到她到图片里的这个家,还邀请我有空去"耍耍",用的词汇居然与中原地区的方言一样! 非常朴实真诚的藏族村民!背景为日乌且沟东侧的一座大山。去海螺沟的公路就在它前面的山脚下。我有遇见了一群在地里干活的村民,很多是妇女。在他们朝我看来的时候,我首先高喊"扎西德勒"! 他们也相对地回应了我,随后一阵笑声。他们对外人很是友好。我心里感到若遇上什么困难,他们一定会尽力帮助我的,事实上以后的经历也证明了这点。([]

走进野性非洲——2013年7月肯尼亚野生动物游猎记行摄匆匆 小时候,我们从书本上知道了大象、狮子和老虎,我们对这些动物既喜欢又害怕,而去动物园看它们则是我们童年时代共同的梦想。肯尼亚是世界上公认的观赏野生动物的最佳国度。在马赛马拉动物保护区,非洲五兽——非洲象、犀牛、野牛、狮子和猎豹随处可见;在博格利亚湖国家公园,红色的火烈鸟成群结队在蓝天碧水间翱翔;在安布塞利国家公园,海明威笔下的乞立马扎罗雪山映照着满地的如茵绿草。每年的7-9月份,东非大草原上数以百万计的野生动物开始了一年一度的大迁徙,成群结队的角马、斑马和羚羊由南部的坦桑尼亚向邻近的肯尼亚迁徙,场面甚为壮观。 2013年夏天,我们终于踏上这片非洲热土,去肯尼亚看动物大迁徙。从某种意义上讲,这是去圆一个我们儿时的梦。Safari一词源于肯尼亚的地方语言斯瓦西里语,是名词“旅游”的斯瓦西里语发音。19世纪中后期欧洲对非洲的大规模殖民入侵和开发过程中,遍布非洲草原的野生动物成为欧洲人感兴趣的目,以真枪狩猎为内容的非洲旅行成为欧洲人的选择。作为英国殖民地的肯尼亚,是欧洲人狩猎旅行最主要的目的地。于是,对这种旅行的定义借用了当地斯瓦西里语,被称为safari。丹麦女作家伊萨克̶6;迪内森的小说,后来被西德尼•波拉克拍成奥斯卡获奖电影的《走出非洲》,描写的就是那时的场景。随着野生动物保护观念的兴起,携带真枪的狩猎行为被大大限制了,照相机取代了真枪,safari成为特指到东非以观赏拍摄野生动物为目的的旅行的代名词,这个词也进入了英文字典。safari翻译成中文就是狩猎旅行或者游猎。 十来天的safari,从动物不太密集的地区一路旅行到野生动物集中的区域,这是一种非常特别的享受。这很像一曲好的音乐或者一部好的电影,以饶有兴味不紧不慢的序幕引入,逐渐推向高潮,戛然而止,让我们兴奋不已、回味无穷!时间:2013年7月26日——8月6日线路:内罗毕(Nairobi)—马赛马拉(Maasai Mara)—奈瓦沙(Naivasha)—博格利亚(Bogoria)—甜水(Sweet Waters)—桑布鲁(Samburu)—内罗毕(Nairobi)队员:行摄匆匆、游民、相守、阿韦、有足道、天下网拳、岚轩主人、博士,Najia,洁玲,似水年华,葱花,眼镜蛇,夭夭。 游记分三个部分第一部分 图片集锦(第1页)一、动物成群二、大象起舞三、惊艳火烈鸟四、狮王争霸五、猎豹传奇六、长颈鹿漫步七、鸟儿飞翔八、斑马世界九、羚羊精灵十、百兽争春十一、马赛风情十二:儿童世界十三、桑布鲁参观十四:日出日落十五:马叉到底第二部分 详细攻略(第13页)https//bbs.8264.com/thread-1837088-13-1.html一、线路设计二、游猎公司的选择三、机票购买四、证办理五、健康黄皮书六、或有风险七、装备建议八、出入境九、肯尼亚简介十、肯尼亚旅游须知第三部分 游猎日记(第20页)https//bbs.8264.com/thread-1837088-20-1.htmlD17月26日,深圳——广州——曼谷——内罗毕1.1.第一次碰头会&饯行宴1.2.最快的一次打包1.3.备忘录1.4.机场大巴1.5.团队窗口1.6.功夫不负有心人(第21页)1.7.经停曼谷1.8.飞越印度洋1.9.谷歌地图失灵第一部分 图片集锦图片集锦之一:动物成群图片集锦之二:大象起舞图片集锦之三:惊艳火烈鸟图片集锦之四:狮王争霸图片集锦之五:猎豹传奇图片集锦之六:长颈鹿漫步图片集锦之七:鸟儿飞翔图片集锦之八:斑马世界图片集锦之九:羚羊精灵图片集锦之十:百兽争春图片集锦之十一:马赛风情图片集锦之十二:儿童世界图片集锦之十三:桑布鲁参观图片集锦之十四:日出日落图片集锦之十五:马叉到底第二部分 肯尼亚游猎攻略一、线路设计 刚开始我们的计划是两周17天的游猎时间,景点包括肯尼亚6大国家公园:安博塞利、马赛马拉、纳库鲁湖、博格里亚湖、阿布戴尔和桑布鲁。这个行程的经济团报价都在2500美金以上。为了降低成本,我们去掉了性价比不高的安博塞利、阿布戴尔和纳库鲁湖,增加了相对便宜的甜水自然保护区和纳瓦沙,时间也从17天压缩到11天,费用则从2500美金降低到1600美金。如果还想顺道去登非洲最高峰乞力马扎罗(5892米)的话,那么只需再多花7天时间和1000美金即可。以下是我们最终行程计划:D1:7月26日,广州—内罗毕肯尼亚航空21:35广州起飞,第二天肯尼亚时间6:05到达内罗毕(大约北京时间11点),飞行时间约14小时。住:飞机上吃:XXXD2:7月27日,内罗毕—马赛马拉车程:270公里,约5.5小时,经停东非大裂谷东部观景点。Game Drive:16:00~18:30住:Mara Impala Camp吃:XLDD3:7月28日,马赛马拉全天Game Drive:08:00~16:00,中午在马拉河边西式盒餐。住:Mara Impala Camp吃:BLDD4:7月29日, 马赛马拉全天Game Drive:08:00~16:00,中午在马拉河边西式盒餐,下午去马赛村参观。住:Mara Impala Camp吃:BLDD5:7月30日,马赛马拉—纳瓦沙—纳库鲁车程:340公里,约6小时,Morning Game Drive:06:30~08:30,返回酒店早餐,之后驱车前往纳瓦沙湖,在镇上午餐,下午乘船游纳瓦沙湖(1小时)。游完纳瓦沙湖后前往纳库鲁,从纳瓦沙到纳库鲁,约100公里,1.5小时的车程。住:Geneview Hotel吃:BLDD6:7月31日,纳库鲁—博戈里亚—纳库鲁车程:130公里,约2小时,中途经停赤道。早起5点出发前往博戈里亚湖,到了博戈里亚湖后进入湖区观赏火烈鸟,中午返回纳库鲁,下午纳库鲁镇游玩。住:Geneview Hotel吃:BLDD7:8月1日,纳库鲁—甜水—纳纽基全程:约200公里,约4小时抵达纳纽基,入住Simba’s Hotel,中午甜水保护区(Sweet Water Tend Camp)午餐。纳纽基到甜水大约20分钟车程。Game Drive:16:00~18:30住:Simba’s Hotel吃:BLDD8:8月2日,纳纽基—桑布鲁车程:130公里,约2.5小时。Game Drive:16:00~18:30住:Samburu Sopa Lodge吃:BLDD9:8月3日, 桑布鲁早上一次Game Drive:06:30~08:30,返回酒店早餐,其余时间休息,中午在酒店内午餐,傍晚一次Game Drive:16:00~18:30,中午桑布鲁村参观。 住:Samburu Sopa Lodge吃:BLDD10:8月4日,桑布鲁—内罗毕车程:360公里,约7小时。沿途购物点购物,中午内罗毕午餐,下午内罗毕市内游玩、购物,晚上内罗毕国际机场肯尼亚航空KQ886航班23:35(当地时间)起飞。住:飞机上吃:BXXD11:8与5日,内罗毕—广州19:05到达广州。注:餐食中,B-早餐、L-午餐、D-晚餐、X-自理报价:4人车,每人1660美金,6人车每人1560美金。附:初始17天游猎计划D1:7月26日,广州—内罗毕,住宿:飞机上D2:7月27日,早上6:05到达内罗毕机场。内罗毕—安博塞利,住宿:安博塞利。D3:7月28日,安博塞利,住宿:安博塞利D4:7月29日,安博塞利—内罗毕,住宿:内罗毕D5:7月30日,内罗毕—马赛马拉,住宿:马赛马拉D6:7月31日,马赛马拉,住宿:马赛马拉D7:8月1日,马赛马拉,住宿:马赛马拉D8:8月2日,马赛马拉,住宿:马赛马拉D9:8月3日,马赛马拉—马赛村,住宿:Narok镇D10:8月4日,Narok镇—纳库鲁湖,住宿:纳库鲁湖D11:8月5日,纳库鲁湖—博格里亚湖,住宿:博格里亚湖D12:8月6日,博格里亚湖—阿布戴尔,住宿:阿布戴尔D13:8月7日,阿布戴尔—桑布鲁,住宿:桑布鲁D14:8月8日,桑布鲁,住宿:桑布鲁D15:8月9日,桑布鲁—内罗毕,住宿:内罗毕D16:8月10日,内罗毕一日游,晚上23:35飞机离开。住宿:飞机上D17:8月11日,内罗毕—广州,19:05抵达广州二、游猎公司的选择 经过对网上中国驴友推荐的几家游猎公司和LP上推荐的几家游猎公司的信息进行整理和分析,我们挑选出6家以做经济型游猎为主的公司进行了邮件联系,及时回复的的有以下几家:1、KIBO SLOPES SAFARIS LTDHEAD OFFICE - NGONG RD, BOX 58064, 00200 NRB, KenyaTel+254 - 020-2139981 | 020- 2633217 - Cell+254 - 0-719 381 519Email Expeditions@kiboslopessafaris.com,kibo@nbnet.co.ke,info@kiboslopessafaris.com。 Webwww.KiboSlopesSafaris.Com2、Wildness Discovery Safari Limited(野外发现)联系人:汤麟,电话:000254-713146553,QQ:445943489,邮箱:445943489@qq.com,mr.gracefulkirin@gmail.comddress Rehema house, 3rd Floor Standard Street, P.O.

尼泊尔被称为高山之国,境内的喜马拉雅山被誉为世界屋脊,世界上14座海拔8000米以上的山峰中有8座诞生于这里。在这里徒步穿越,既可以走得如驴子般的自虐,也可以雇上挑夫,过得如王子般的享受。 而此次的尼泊尔行,我们的主要目的就是徒步喜马拉雅南坡安娜普纳ABC。以至于进入尼泊尔的第二天,就迫不及待的奔赴博卡拉,走上ABC. 都说尼泊尔是登山爱好者的乐园。那里有多条成熟的登山健行的路线:你可以去挑战雪山;也可以只花3、4天在山间转转,远眺喜玛拉雅群山;有兴趣有时间的话,还可以用20多天走个大环线。其中徒步安娜普纳登山大本营(即Annapurna Base Camp,简称ABC),无疑最具诱惑力。 老C长我两岁,我们都是老三届,都已经从领导岗位退了下来,都喜欢户外运动,登山骑车、徒步健行,虽年已花甲,却自认为体能不让后生。 两老驴是首次结伴驴行,岁数合计122岁,自称KC组合,呵呵,幸好偶不叫老王老魏老吴老温,不然就成了WC组合。 一路行来,所遇登山驴友,几乎都是雇用背夫负担装备,没有几个是自己重装徒步的。在国产驴友中,60花甲,自己背负全套装备,重装完成ABC徒步的,也许只是凤毛麟角。不是想节约几个钱,只是想找那种感觉,证明一下---我能。 时间:2010年1月19日--26日 路线:Nayapul--ABC(即Annapurna Base Camp,安娜普纳登山大本营)--Nayapul 装备:睡袋、冲锋衣裤、抓绒衣裤、速干内衣、登山鞋、手套、帽子、墨镜、头灯、手机、书本地图;笔记本电脑、两部相机、三套备用电池、四套充电器,电源转换头,多联接线插板,摄影独角架;若干食品、饮料、糖、酒,总之70升背包填得满满的。 1月23日,当我们冒雪抵达海拔4130米的ABC营地,在客栈餐厅里,满墙驴友的留言涂鸦中,贴上第三张用汉字书写的留言时,心理获得极大的满足。 需要特别说明的是,俩老驴目不识丁(外文盲),刚刚认得ABC,竟然敢走ABC。对于我们来说,登山体能没有问,最大的困难是语言不通,无法交流。于是在博卡拉请个中文翻译做向导,带俩聋子和哑巴上路。 没有请背夫,那装备就自己背上了,因为在国内登山都是如此,还没有奢侈到那种程度。何况来了,就是为了体验那种重装徒步喜马拉雅的感觉。 27岁的小吴,具有二分之一的中国血统。他是我们住在博卡拉峨眉饭庄老板的儿子,瘦高的个子,非常腼腆,汉语说的并不十分流利。他父亲说他是博卡拉唯一的中文向导,佣金自然就较英文向导高些,物以稀为贵吗。 头天在博卡拉办理了进山证,是小吴领到办事地点,大门有人执勤,不让当地向导进入。我们俩老外,面对工作人员的热情招呼,竟只能靠手势交流。两张表格,还是又拿到外面让小吴找人代填的,至此才发现,我们的翻译也是文盲,只会说不会写。 填表,帖照片,交2000卢比,发证盖章,***非常顺利。 早饭后,乘车前往徒步出发地Nayapul,距博卡拉约60多公里,吴老板说通往那里的公路,就是中国援建的,当时他是援建公司的尼泊尔语翻译。(我在想:这语言能沟通,令吴翻译钩到了尼泊尔MM。然后留在那里成家立业)。 想象中的Nayapul应该是个比较繁华的地方,因为来安娜普纳登山的都要在这里进山或出山。下车的路边是排简陋的板房,卖些小食品,石砌泥糊的灶台,青烟缕缕。 沿板房间的石阶下山到河边,走过铁索桥,以后山里过河基本上都是铁索桥,无惊无险。桥边有长着黑白羽毛的鸭子在溜达,心想这异国的鸭子也是异样的。 路过第一个检查站,查验登山证件,盖章放行。尼泊尔的徒步登山旅游开放有近百年的历史,管理服务确实是做得非常周到。 尼泊尔的徒步旅游非常成熟和完善,几乎每走1--2个小时就会遇到一个落脚点,可以食宿休整,所以大家尽可根据自己的体力和节奏,安排出自己的徒步计划。而每处客栈都整洁干净,布满了鲜花。 每个客栈都有这样的图示,识出你当前所在的位置,以及各个站点之间徒步所需的时间,一目了然。 这些建于数十年前的石头砌的台阶,高度与宽度正好能将背包靠住,非常的人性化。 我们的背包有20公斤重,第一天就重装爬升了1000多米,喜欢那种出大力,流大汗的感觉。 午餐一般我们吃的是炒米饭,或炒面条。晚上收工后,会拿出背来的物资,煮点奶茶,吃几颗花生米,喝两杯烧酒。 尼泊尔地处喜马拉雅山脉南坡,从海拔8848米的世界第一高峰珠穆朗玛到海拔只有50米的平原,落差巨大。正是这种巨大的海拔落差以及印度洋的暖湿气流造就了尼泊尔独特的迷人景观:海拔8000米以上的高大雪峰和海拔不足1000米的绿色梯田可以同时出现在你的视野之中。 这里有雪山,有瀑布,有象国内川西一样的丰沛流水,有象云南一样的茂密植被。 当你徒步穿越美丽的溪流、峡谷,来到远离城市尘嚣的偏僻山村,巨大的海拔高差带来的视觉上的震撼,而垂直分布引起的迥异的景色又给人强烈的虚幻的感觉。视觉的享受和心灵的愉悦,会令你为他们那传统的田园生活唏嘘不已。 来到尼泊尔,如果没有徒步喜马拉雅,那将会是件很遗憾的事情。 在安娜普纳徒步有着非常成熟的线路,有4天的小环,有8天的ABC,还有21天的大环线。沿途的小村庄很多,配套设施都做得很好。一路上的客栈都可以提供各种便利,几乎每走1-2小时路程,就会遇到像样的客栈。提供食宿,干净舒适,完全没有那种攀登野山,风餐露宿,饥寒交迫的现象。 为此:来到尼泊尔,徒步高山,那将又是件很幸福的事情。 遇有村镇,会聚集着十几家甚至几十家客栈,一般房价在200-400卢比/天左右。客栈虽然简陋,但绝不乏整洁优雅,服务周到。 山区里不通公路,全靠驴驮人背。物价随着海拔的升高,逐渐上涨,确也合情合理。尼泊尔人习惯于头顶背负东西,感觉人家颈椎很硬。 海拔2000米左右的山里,植被茂盛。穿行在密林深处,阳光透过枝叶,斑斑点点的洒在路上、身上,异常的惬意。 感觉欧美人比我们会享受生活,硕大的包包有背夫给背着,自己悠闲的赏景,休息时品味着热咖啡,充分体验着旅行的乐趣。(我是说他们是旅行而不是驴行)。 哥德班尼海拔2860米,那天专门绕行三个多小时,就是准备住在这里,第二天早上看日出。 哥德班尼是个小镇,有数十家客栈。这里还有登山检查站,要查验证件,登记盖章。工作人员很悠闲,边晒太阳边下棋。 还可以见到前几年的语,不认识写的什么,但对那镰刀斧头的图案是再熟悉不过了。 这里房屋的屋顶都是蓝色的彩钢板,我喜欢这个颜色。小吴领我们进了最高处的一家客栈,推开窗户,就见雪山,近在咫尺。 仁者乐山,见雪山就兴奋。今爬行没有强度,时值中午,感觉日晒强烈,天气却很凉。在小吴的建议下,午饭点了份套餐:炸薯条、炸鸡块、炸牛排、蔬菜、米饭。500卢比一份,这是我们进山仅有的最FB的一餐。 特意在露天用餐,来两瓶啤酒,对着安娜普纳雪峰畅饮,体验着神仙过的日子。美了美了,醉了醉了。 黄昏时登临附近较高处,山里的傍晚,大多是云遮雾罩,没有那期待中的雪山落日,巍巍雪峰若隐若现,只抓拍了雪峰那瞬间即逝的靓影。 这天的早饭是油饼+奶茶;晚饭是在房间里,叫了份炒面,煮了锅紫菜汤,牛肉花生米,限量两杯小酒... 当驴不要太苦了自己,毕竟自虐也不是唯一。 本来依我们的体力(得利于经常性的登山和骑行运动),虽然重装7天内肯定能走完ABC。但为了拍日出,昨天只徒步3小时,就住在了哥德班尼。 昨天傍晚的云遮雾罩,没有预想的美丽的夕阳落日。心情多少有些郁闷,担心早晨是否能够拍到日出。 黎明前,戴着头灯上路,满天的繁星眨着眼睛,那颗悬着的心踏实了,没有白浪费那半天的时间,有时耐心的等待并不是一件坏事。 布恩山(Poon Hill,海拔3200米),是安娜普纳小环游线路的最大亮点,如果天气好的话可以看到270度雪山群峰日出的壮观景色。 早上五点小吴就叫我们起来,开始向布恩山顶进发,去看日出。这段路程大概有十多里但海拔要提高600多米,人们都在漆黑的山路上登顶,不时会看到照明头灯的闪烁。([]
“十.一”长假,对于行摄者来说是个非常纠结的假期,出行吧,怕人满为患,不出行,大好的秋季在家宅上七天,也是件非常难熬的事。今年“十.一”长假,恰逢有本地组织摄影团去东北摄影采风,线路的设计非常符合我的“要求”,线路冷门,又适合秋季摄影采风,于是,二话没说,俩字:报名! 本次长假东北行摄线路为:徐州—烟台—大连—本溪洋湖沟—本溪中华枫林大道—吉林白山湖—长白山—盘锦红海滩—天津—徐州,总行程4100公里。 10.1徐州—烟台—大连 为了避开“十.一”出行高峰,清晨530,一行45人就从徐州淮海战役纪念塔北门出发前往烟台。原以为路上交通会比较拥堵,上了路后才感觉出,途中并没有想象的那么堵,从徐州到烟台,整个高速路均处于正常通行状态,从高速路服务区就可以看出道路状况,最让人担心的交通问没有显现出来,让领队与队员们既感到意外又倍感欣慰。 “十一”长假期间,服务区里呈现出这种状态,无论是不出门的还是出门在外的,这都是想象不到的景象吧?当然,我们也看到了高速路上有车堵不畅通的时候,但那是在我们对面的车道上,我们这一边的车道始终是畅通的,这充分说明了我们这次的线路选的是无比正确、无比英明。这就是我们此次出行的“飞燕”,就是她一路带着我们前行。以后的七天里,我们就要与她成为亲密伙伴,她将载着我们完成七天的行摄。 从徐州到烟台,一路畅通无阻,下午230,到达烟台港,330,我们准备上船,乘轮渡前往大连。 实话说,行走了这么些年,也乘坐过不少交通工具,但这样大型的滚装客轮我还是第一次乘坐。93年去舟山时曾经乘坐过舟山到宁波的轮船,但船的吨位远没有这么大。这渤海宝珠号是我有生以来乘坐的最大船舶了。查百度资料得知:渤海宝珠轮是中国自行设计建造的最大最豪华客滚船 ,2009年10月18日上午9时58分,在山东荣成黄海造船厂顺利下水。2010年春节前投入到渤海湾烟台至大连的运营中。该船总长163.95米,型宽25米,总吨位2万余吨。拥有2000米车道线,两层旅客舱、三层车辆舱,可装载大小车辆260多辆,载客1630人。装载车辆、旅客的能力为国内客滚船中第一。船舶设计航速18.5节,最大航速20.6节,烟台到大连5小时即可到达。难怪在我看来这就是个庞然大物,原来它确实算是普通客轮中的“航母”级客轮了。 下午300,乘客陆续登船。接下来,我们将同“飞燕”一起,同船从大海之上前往大连港。 “渤海宝珠号”船舶之大,光登船爬楼梯就得爬上七层楼,真真的让人仰视到了帽子掉。 下面的行程我们将在渤海宝珠上度过。。。。。。 上了船,虽然大家都有舱位,三等舱六人间,也蛮舒服的,可几乎没人在房间里呆着,放下行李便都拥到甲板上来了。烟台我曾来过,那次是到崆峒岛时来到烟台的,但烟台港没到过,这次就在船上好好看看烟台港吧。从徐州到大连,从烟台坐船是最近的距离,前两次到大连都是火车往返,这次能在海上航行,无疑又是一次新的旅行体验。对我而言,经历不同的旅行体验,是让我感到非常开心的事情,也是十分兴奋的时刻。因此,自从上了船,我就几乎没有一刻不在拍摄。 烟台港,在我的镜下如一幅幅画一样的展现了出来。。。。。。 烟台港共有三条航道,其中东港内航道长700米,宽90米,水深-8.7米,乘潮满载通航最大船舶吨级25000吨;东港外航道长2200米,宽100米,水深-8.7米,乘潮满载通航最大船舶吨级25000吨;西港区航道长3800米,宽100米,水深-11.5米,乘潮满载通航最大船舶吨级55000吨。 看着这场景,让我想起了八大样板戏中《海港》的唱词:看码头,好气派,机械列队江边排。大吊车,真厉害,成吨的钢铁,它轻轻地一抓就起来! 上次去烟台只在海边呆了半天,没怎么看到烟台的城市面貌,这次在船上反倒看到了烟台的大概面貌呢。 开船了,船舶渐渐驶离了港口。。。。。。 开始了我们的海上旅程。。。。。。 渤海宝珠号驶向了大海,远处的港口渐行渐远。。。。。。 看着天空中的云层,我们期待着今天能在海上看到落日。 离开烟台港驶入大海后路过一个海岛,不知是不是崆峒岛,在这里看到了“沧海之上可耕田”的景象。这样的场景让我想起了福建霞浦,如今的渔民光靠打鱼是维持不了生计的,一部分的收入来源要靠养殖业。 苍茫的大海之上,因为有了这些养殖用的浮漂,让大海的画面丰富而美丽了许多。([]
从贵州回来半个多月了,整整一个月的跋涉和游览,乘坐火车汽车一路奔波,经常忍不住在山清水秀的地方徒步旅行,总行程计10000公里,其中:乘坐火车里程8300公里,汽车里程约1400余公里,徒步里程约250余公里,还有市内交通若干。 一个月中,看到得太多,想到得太多,得到得太多,一时难以品味和消化,以至于兴奋的情绪久久未能平静,迟迟无法安下心来写游记。可好多朋友天天追在后面催债,只好打起精神,努力成文。 这次贵州旅行全是乘坐公共交通,在近一个月风雨兼程的旅途中和其后近两个月撰写游记的日子里,我一面欣赏贵州秀丽山水的旖旎风光和奇异民俗,一面努力寻找与其相关传的传奇典故和古今传说;一面踏访各地的文物古迹和红军长征的红色旅途,一面费力探寻其背后遗留的时代碎片和历史烽烟,希望让这个帖子不仅仅简单地展现一次旅游过程和几张美丽图片,更能告诉朋友们这些图片后面的传奇故事和厚重历史,使一篇游记在时空上有所突破,变得更有厚度,更有伸展性和可读性,让朋友们通过这篇帖子和我一样能了解更多,收获更多,也为自己在未来重读这篇帖子的时候,给自己留下更多的时空记忆,所以我给这篇游记起了个目就叫做:跟老山羊穿越时空游贵州——访旖旎风光奇异民俗后的传奇典故;寻文物古迹红色旅途上的历史烽烟希望大家都能喜欢。此次出行贵州部分行程如下图: 出行时间:9月13日晚22点从沈阳出发,10月13日下午15点回到沈阳,正好一个月。具体行程及到达当地的时间为: 沈阳(0913)—安顺(0916)—兴义(0918)—安龙(0921)—贞丰(0921)—黄果树(0922)—安顺(0922)—织金洞(0923)—贵阳(0923)—镇远古城(0924)—凯里(0925)—朗德(0926)—凯里(0926)—福泉(0927)—麻尾(0927)—大小七孔(0928)—三都(0928)—榕江(0929)—从江(0930)—肇兴(0930)—黎平(1001)—隆里(1001)—锦屏(1001)—三门塘(1002)—远口(1002)—天柱邦洞(1002)—贵阳(1003)—青岩古镇(1004)—南江大峡谷(1005)—开阳(1005)—遵义(1006)—仁怀(1006)—茅台(1007)—习水(1007)—大同古镇(1007)—大足(1010)—重庆(1011)—沈阳(1013) 说起此次的贵州行,本来是去年的旅行计划,但去年8月份,当年和我一起走川藏的哥哥(参见我的帖子《兄弟写行走川藏》https//bbs.8264.com/thread-83145-1-1.html)突然发现罹患癌症,半年后竟不治身亡。 在哥哥最后的日子里,我放弃了计划中的旅行,抛开了工作,一直在医院陪伴左右,亲眼看着原本天性乐观、身体健壮的哥哥受恶疾折磨,一点点失去生活的乐趣和生命的活力,体重从80多公斤在不到半年的时间里就瘦的皮包骨头,最后油尽灯枯,离我们而去,深深感受到在恶疾面前,渺小的人类那种无助和无奈。 送走了哥哥,我更加体会到人生的短暂和脆弱,更应当保重身体,享受生活。正像我的一位朋友在今年中秋给我发的短诗所写:一年转眼又中秋,荏苒光阴似水流。把盏临风思爱友,隔窗对月寄情酬。人生短暂有终点,世事纷繁无尽头。莫让功名空误己,今宵不享待何求? 哥哥生前,曾一直盼望我能尽快退休,希望我退休后能和他一起继续享受旅行全国的乐趣。可这一愿望,竟然终成遗憾! 哥哥去世后,我跟嫂子要来了一直伴随哥哥旅行的佳能SD1400相机留作纪念,并承诺带着它继续今后的旅行生活,让相机代替哥哥观看和记录美丽的祖国山河。于是,今年9月,我带着哥哥遗留的相机,开始了筹划两年的贵州之行。 为什么选择去贵州旅行? 在全国众多的省份中,有几个是我从未涉足,甚至从未路过的省份,贵州就是其中的一个。对这个人们传统观念中天高地远的蛮荒之地,我一直没有太多的关注,也知之甚少。 其实早在2002年我第一次开始自助旅行去凤凰,在租了一辆自行车去阿拉营镇的黄丝桥古城时,知道再前行几里地,就可以进入贵州省,那时就在心里埋下了有朝一日要去这个夜郎国度一探究竟的愿望。 然而,十年中,尽管我每年都要出外旅行,甚至先后去了越南和泰国,而贵州省却一直没有列入我的旅行计划之中,这个美丽的旅游大省也一直没有留下我的足迹。 直到去年,我终于把远行的目瞄向了这里。 为什么要去贵州旅行?一句话两句话说不清楚。在我搜集资料的时候,看到一位贵州朋友写的文章,似乎可以较全面的回答这个问,让朋友们对这个美丽神奇的地方有一个全面的了解,故转发到这里,供大家参考(此篇介绍文章中的插图均来自网络,特此说明):原文地址:https//blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_70f15b1c01017rpx.html贵州:美丽神奇的公园省,自驾游、户外运动的天堂贵州游侠 贵州有着非常宜人的气候,零度以下及三十度以上的气温很少出现。一月份平均气温摄氏四到九度,七月平均气温也只有摄氏二十三度至二十七度之间,夏无酷暑,冬无严寒。地震、台风、海啸及较大的洪水等自然灾害与贵州无缘。贵州境内植被十分茂盛,一年四季到处都是郁郁葱葱的景色。贵州大小江河、溪流遍布,湖泊水库众多,随处可见青山绿水、奇峰绝壁。风景名胜、文物古迹遍布全省各地。一年四季都适合休闲旅游、探险猎奇。 贵州的大小瀑布成千上万,形态各异,美不胜收。除了气势磅礴响声震天的黄果树瀑布和十丈洞瀑布外,有的纤细绵长飘飘洒洒,有的几个瀑布叠成一串浩浩荡荡,有的多个瀑布排成一排各显风采。有的从悬崖半腰洞中喷涌而出如巨龙下山,令人目瞪口呆。荔波小七孔景区十二公里就有瀑布六十八个,兴义市马岭河峡谷六公里内也有瀑布几十个。中国十大瀑布水帘洞之一的穿洞河瀑布,在其五十多米长的瀑下居然贯穿着一条水帘洞,从古代起就成为道路的一部分。黄果树大瀑布 贵州的溶洞也是成千上万,除了被作家冯牧称为:“黄山归来不看山,织金洞外无洞天。”的织金洞、总长达一百一十公里的双河溶洞外。有一眼望去如一轮明月挂在山间的穿洞,有曲折盘旋绵延几十公里穿州过县的长洞,有洞中有洞、洞上有洞、洞旁有洞、洞洞相连,使整个山变空了的空山洞。有如戟似剑的石膏晶洞,有的水中有洞、有的洞中有水、有潭、有暗河激流,还有许多古人类居住过的山洞。有电影[云雾山中]土匪盘踞的窗子洞。有关押张学良、杨虎城的麒麟洞、阳明洞、玄天洞、有在洞口修筑城墙,在洞中躲避土匪战乱的堡垒洞、有在洞中建有飞机发动机制造厂五层厂房的高大洞穴,有洞中吹出狂风的风洞,惠水的波云洞旁一个小洞会吹出寒冷的风,即使是盛夏你也不敢在此久留。有上万个燕子盘旋其中的燕子洞,蝙蝠居住的蝙蝠洞,。溶洞中景色各异、美丽绝伦。任你打开想像的空间、用尽赞美的词语,也无法形容它的美妙和神奇。织金洞 贵州还有很多天生桥,大方青虚洞天生桥高大宽敞,桥下曾拟作为飞机库和跑道,蒋介石曾在桥洞下宴请过两千多人。黎平天生桥拱型规整圆滑,跨度一百一十九米,桥宽百米,堪称世界之最。瓮安仙桥居于高山之巅远望如天桥一般,有许多天生桥已被作为公路桥使用, 纳雍的九洞天、大方的八洞天更是由多个天生桥组成。湄潭的百面水有二十一个天生桥。黎平高屯天生桥 贵州现存的古代石建筑繁多,现存有数十个结构严谨、造型优美、雕刻精致的石牌坊,有数百个巍峨屹立的古石塔及佛教塔墓。上千个美丽古朴形态各异结构不同的古石拱桥、石墩石梁桥及石桥上有屋、有亭的花桥。有数百个建筑宏伟、规模宏大、雕刻精良的古石墓葬。数百个建在山间险境的军事城堡、营盘,均为巨石建成,有石拱门、房屋、仓库、地道、暗堡工事,最大的营盘面积竟达十平方公里。还有许多石墙石瓦石铺地面的古老的村寨。绥阳的石房子堪称石建筑的精髓,整个建筑全由精石料榫接而成,所有的柱、坊、梁上都有精美的雕刻,甚至连衣柜、水缸、台案等都是由石料精制而成。关岭的无梁殿,面积上百平方米无梁无柱,堪称一绝。石阡元代千工堰、瓮安明代梅花堰、遵义五百年雷水堰,兴义三百年石渡槽,作为几百年前的水利工程还在发挥着它的作用,平坝的天台山五龙寺建在绝壁尖顶,被称为石头建筑的绝唱,令多少古建筑专家为之倾倒。许多上百年的石碉堡还屹立在大小寨堡中。天龙屯堡—天台山伍龙寺 贵州河流大都流淌在幽深的山谷间,有乌江、清水江、南盘江、北盘江、都柳江、赤水河等较大的河流,还有数不清的支流和小溪,河水清澈,河道蜿蜒,落差较大,景色优美,水质极佳,可用于漂流的河流有八百二十条,已开发漂流的河道就有四十多条。还有数不清的阴河暗流,时明时暗,妙趣横生。北盘江大峡谷及北盘江大桥 贵州有着难以数计的古树名木,直径数米、树龄几百年的各种古树分布在全省各地,树龄千年以上的古树也有几十颗,最大的藤类植物的直径竟达半米。被称为植物活化石的桫椤在黔西北成片生长,硕大的古树被当地人民敬为神灵,从而得到精心的保护。站在苍劲挺拔、饱经风霜的古树下,你也会对它产生深深的敬意和发自内心的喜爱。 在横跨在大小河流和溪沟上的上千个古代桥梁中,除了前面提到的石拱桥、石梁桥外还有各种结构的古朴的木制凉桥、板凳桥、充满了古代人民智慧和勤劳勇敢精神的竹索桥、藤索桥、用竹杆连接两岸树木形成的竹杆桥、以伸到对岸的树根为梁的树根桥。以铁链固定在巨石上连接两岸形成的铁索桥。以砖为料的砖拱桥,以石为墩以木为梁的木梁桥,将石料固定排列在水中形成的汀步桥。无一不以其原始、古朴的风貌展现在人们的面前。反映了古代劳动人民的聪明才智。荔波小七孔古桥 古老的建筑在贵州也非常多,有许多规模宏大雕梁画栋的寺庙、庄严肃穆装饰精良的家族祠堂、极具异域风情的清真寺,庄重的书院、豪华的他乡会馆、宽敞富丽中西合璧的豪宅、占地宽广建筑宏大的土司衙署、庄园,精美适用雕刻精致绘画精良的古民居、在施秉一个十分偏远的小山村居然有着几十家高封火墙的豪华徽式建筑。镇远青龙洞古建筑群占地面积达两万二千平方米,单体建筑达二十五幢之多。位于安顺城内的文庙,始建于明洪武初年、占地十一亩,内存一对高大的透雕石龙柱为国内罕见,还有一面巨大的透雕石花墙及两座精雕石牌坊,如此精品在城市中得到完好的保存,堪称奇迹。镇远青龙洞 贵州境内还保存有几十段数公里长的古驿道,这些古驿道均为石板或石块铺筑,经过数百载风雨的洗礼,已经非常光滑洁白,古驿道上有驿站、关隘城楼、烽火台、屯兵堡垒。古桥古树。三国时期关羽之子关索修建的关索古驿道留下了一路的遗迹和多少神奇的传说。巾帼英雄奢香夫人修建的龙场九驿还一段段残留在乌蒙山脉上,一座座古桥为你讲述着一个小女子的博大胸怀。从孔明塘、孔明山、诸葛洞、诸葛峡、孟获屯、双泉寺等三国遗迹中似乎还能感受到历史的硝烟。青岩古镇定广门前古驿道 在贵州各地都有着众多的古代达官贵人、文人墨客留下的摩崖石刻、摩崖造像、岩溶造像、古碑刻、岩画及被称为写字岩的古代文字遗迹。关岭的红岩碑留下了难以破解的千古之谜,反映了贵州丰富的历史文化底蕴。贵州摩崖石刻 贵州古代各民族的墓葬也非常奇特:苗族的洞葬是把棺木集中存放在两面通风的岩洞中,水族是将遗体放入用精制石板做成的三层棺木的下层,而将其日常用品及粮食放入上面两层,以供主人“享用”,并在石板外面刻上花卉及主人生平经历的图案及文字。还有一种崖墓是在垂直的岩壁中间开凿出墓室将棺木放入,然后安装石门。满族墓葬则是将土坟用料石封包,在料石表面雕刻精美的图案及文字,并修筑高大的墓碑及宽敞的拜台。近年又发现花溪一个岩洞里有用一段整木料凿成的棺木,彝族的向天坟被称为中国西南的金字塔。夜郎王的坟墓则像一个卫星接收天线。贵州古墓 许多曾经走出家乡的贵州名人的墓葬也保存完好,如贵阳的李端棻,曾任清朝礼部尚书,是北京大学的首倡者和戊戌变法的幕后领导人。黔西的李士杰,廉洁勤奋,官至兵部尚书。思南的田仰为明清两朝兵部尚书。思南的郭石渠,任清朝监察御史,勤政廉洁、关心农民疾苦,力遏吏治弊端。曾任山东巡抚、四川总督的织金人丁宝桢重视海疆的巩固和枪械的制造,关切黄河的治理、打击贪官污吏、关心民众的疾苦。凯里的孙应鳌曾任多种要职,被提任工部尚书而谢绝。在家乡著书人。都匀人扶纲曾任明朝最后一任礼部尚书、兵部尚书,忠君爱国,将被吴三桂杀害的永历皇帝遗躯迎回,安葬在自己的家乡。黎平何腾蛟曾任相当于现国防部副部长的兵部右侍郎,明朝灭亡后宁死不屈,自缢身亡。遵义的黎庶昌从光绪二年起就先后担任清政府驻英国、法国、德国、印度使馆参赞,并两度担任驻日使馆钦差大臣。普定人任可澄曾任云南、贵州省长及北洋政府教育总长。花溪人刘清曾任山西巡抚,曾千里迢迢将油茶树苗带回家乡,开发家乡的油茶生产。息烽的明代贵州都指挥使李孟明曾将鞭打奢香夫人的马哗捕押进京。凯里的石邦宪曾任明代贵州、湖广总兵。这些贵州人民的优秀代表永远受到家乡人民和全国人民的尊重和敬仰。他们的陵墓也是记载历史的一页。贵州古墓 由于喀斯特地貌的影响。贵州有着非常多的奇妙的泉井,有的像串串葡萄从井底升起,有的似颗颗珍珠浮出水面,有的如有人控制般一日三潮、一天五涌,还有的一有响声就马上涌出。施秉的双井相隔百米一黑一白。修文的三潮水迎接过无数的名人轶士。荔波的永济泉井低于地面十米,取水要从精美的拱券下沿阶梯进入。丹寨的打鼓井每隔几分钟就会涌出水流,并发出轰隆隆的响声。许多泉井的水下长满了各种颜色的水草,终年青翠诱人。遍布在全省各地的温泉,含有多种矿物成分,非常适合人体需要。 贵州还保存着非常多的古城墙和古城门,贵阳青岩古镇、锦屏隆里古城、黄平旧州古城等保存完好,它们以虽然苍老但依然坚固的身躯,屹立在贵州城乡的大地上。隆里古城 贵州也有十几处美丽的石林,如兴义泥凼石林、修文的回水石林、福泉仙桥石林、瓮安草塘石林、德江石林、思南石林、习水岩寨石林、凤岗天桥石林、赫章韭菜坪石林。还有非常多的奇妙的石柱、石龙、最神奇的贵阳鬼架桥以其纤细规整而实在令人难以相信为大自然所造。梵净山的蘑菇石、玉屏的万卷书崖、织金的三叠石、独山的翻天印、拗拗石;三都的晴雨石、猫石;下蛋岩,仁怀的石球、石头开花;贵阳的船石、老奶石、高坡飞来石;赫章的倚稳石、福泉高石头、平塘卡腊石笋、甲青奇石滩;惠水望郎回、大方石舟、印江的大圣墩、三穗的耗子岩、都匀幻影石、玉玺峰、五色擎天柱;长顺的白水牛、剑河的夫妻岩、丹寨的石龙、湄江的宝石坛、贞丰的双乳峰等等,不枚盛举,无不令人啧啧称奇。梵净山蘑菇岩 贵州保留着许多近代省内外历史名人的故居:兴义国民党军政部长何应钦故居、贵州护国运动的领导人、民国交通部长王伯群故居;贵州督军、省长刘显世故居;安龙五省联军总司令袁祖铭故居;赤水、桐梓贵州省长周西成故居;桐梓贵州省长王家烈故居,黔军副军长蒋在珍故居;赤水黔军副军长候之担公馆;贵阳王伯群故居、贵州省长毛光翔、王家烈故居;安顺中共中央秘书长王若飞故居,国民党宪兵之父、贵州省主席谷正伦故居;荔波中共一大代表邓恩铭故居;铜仁红二军团主要创始人周逸群故居;天柱武昌起义前些督战指挥官王天培故居;贞丰被称为:民国十八年、贵州十八子、省长十八天的短命省长李晓炎旧居;镇远革命先驱周达文故居;花溪清朝状元、康熙字典编纂者周渔璜故居等,豪华气派的旧居,留下了历史的瞬间。王若飞故居陈列馆 作为日军侵略中国的最后一个省,贵州也有许多抗日遗迹:在进入贵州的黎明关古隘,日军三千多人受到国军一千五百余人的顽强阻击,三天三夜日军死伤二百多人。古隘古道和日军焚尸处犹存,在荔波的永康穿洞日军又受到抗日军民的抵抗,日军死亡二百多人。从黎明关到县城不到四十公里的路程日军受到军民多次阻击,九天后才进入县城。另一路日军在来到三都九仟的石板寨时天已经黑了,日军见高高的寨墙如城墙般高大,未敢贸然进入,在墙下烧火取暖,被抗日民众打死打伤多人。独山的深河桥是日军进入中国的最后一桥,和引发中国全面抗战的第一桥卢沟桥一样,被记入中国抗日战争的史册。关押日军战俘的镇远和平村向世界讲述着文明礼仪之邦的待人之道。镇远和平村 许多名人在贵州留下遗迹:明代大思想家王阳明在修文阳明洞悟道三年,受到全球文人的尊崇。明代大旅行家徐霞客游览贵州,写下了中国旅游、地理、民族、历史的巨作:【徐霞客游记{黔游日记}】。清代旅行家陈鼎遍游贵州,写下了【黔游记】,记载了“五百里观音洞”等多处景点。黄果树景区的徐霞客塑像 明清武将吴三桂在贵州多次征战,留下了众多的古战场遗迹和传奇故事。明朝的第二个皇帝朱允炆在靖难之役后,传说来到云贵,在贵州许多地方如息烽的西望山盟誓碑,长顺的白云山,贵阳的茶饭寨、太子桥,清镇的灵永寺、云峰山,威宁的龙隐洞,平坝的高峰山寺,赫章的倚稳等地都留下了许多传说和遗迹。主张抗日的国民党高级将领张学良、杨虎成被关押在贵州贵阳、开阳、修文、息烽、桐梓等多个地方,都留下了深深的印记。南明永历皇帝在安龙称帝,留下了王子坟、十八先生墓等遗迹。清朝重臣张之洞及其父兴义知府张锳在贵州多年也留下了很多令人追忆的遗迹。明朝最后一个皇帝永历的皇宫(安龙县城) 贵州有十余个世居民族,有着丰富多彩的文化艺术和奇特神秘的生活习俗,在黔东南苗寨中至今还保存着二百多座花桥鼓楼,黎平县现有三百七十五座侗族鼓楼。苗族歌舞、侗族大歌、布依族座唱令人如痴如醉,各式各样的民居令人大开眼界,雷山西江千户苗寨,浩浩翰翰、层层叠叠,耸立于一面缓坡上。岜沙苗寨以配枪村民和镰刀剃头吸引了多少游人的目光。黎平肇兴侗寨挺立着四座鼓楼和四座风雨桥。贵州少数民族的服饰种类繁多美丽鲜艳,每套服饰都有一个美丽神奇的传说。每年一千多个丰富多彩的民族节日更是引人入胜。侗寨的花桥和鼓楼 贵州还有一些似洞非洞的崖洞,大自然在悬崖峭壁上开凿出一条条凹槽,贵阳下坝的岩底苗寨有一条几公里长的崖下通道、黄平浪洞岩数百米崖道在峭壁上盘旋,黄平飞云崖。被王阳明誉为:天下之山集于云贵,云贵之秀萃于斯崖。 贵州的山有拔地而起的险峰绝顶、有奇形怪状的山巅石峰、有美丽鲜艳的丹霞赤壁、有洁静如洗的白岩,施秉与石阡交界的佛顶山海拔高度一千八百七十米,其南坡长满一人多高的茅草,阳光普照炎热如夏,而北坡则古树茂密藤萝交缠、皑皑白雪寒冷似冬。贵州最高峰韭菜坪海拔二千九百米,山巅绿草茵茵、一片片碗口大的紫色韭菜花迎风怒放、一堆堆洁白的石林傲然挺立。兴义万峰林群峰耸立,被旅行家徐霞客誉为:天下山峰何其多,唯有此处峰成林,杭州中国名胜专家刘延捷的词是:桂林山水甲天下,兴义峰林甲桂林。铜仁梵净山、施秉云台山、雷山雷公山、贵阳黔灵山、息烽西望山等无不以其雄奇险峻、古木苍翠及古老的宗教遗迹令人迷恋。荔波茂兰原始森林,是地球同一纬度仅存的绿洲,木本、草本植物十分丰富,山中溶洞、奇泉散布,古道沧桑、古木藤蔓纠葛、一颗颗独立生长的树木和草地构成了一幅典型的非洲风光。毕节地区的百里杜鹃林各种颜色、各种花形的古老杜鹃花在绵延百里的山坡上怒放。黔北竹海浩瀚、桫椤茂盛。赤水丹霞奇观兴义万峰林 贵州红色旅游资源也十分丰富,除了举世闻名的遵义会议系列景点外,四渡赤水、娄山关、江界河渡口,黎平会议、猴场会议、梯子岩战斗、川滇黔省革命委员会等遗址。息烽集中营、荔波红二军会师遗址。印江木黄红二、六军会师地等都得以完好的保存。黎平会议纪念馆 贵州的水塘、湖泊、水库非常多,景色也都十分迷人,有海拔两千多米的威宁草海、都匀斗蓬山天池、习水天池、榕江变色塘、安顺龙宫旋塘、剑河呈放射状水纹的雷打塘等,众多水电站形成的千岛湖悠长蜿蜒,风光迤逦,红枫湖、百花湖以其面积大、岛屿多、水光山色迷人著称。众多的湖泊不仅可以进行各种水上运动,湖畔还是你、垂钓、露营、篝火晚会、烧烤的极好场所。百花湖景色 贵州有许多大小天坑,息烽的圆通山天坑疑为陨石冲击所至,罗甸的董当天坑、惠水的毛家苑天坑、务川天坑、平塘的塘边天坑、清镇的暗流河天坑、习水的小桥天坑等均为喀斯特地貌。 贵州还有很多高山草原,如龙里草原、贵定草原、威宁草原、赫章草原、六枝夜郎草原等,在千山万壑的云贵高原,一片片大草原神奇地展现出风吹草低见牛羊的内蒙景色,令人称奇。 贵州有许多高差极大、幽深狭长的大峡谷,狭窄的一线天、猴跳岩奇特神秘,雄奇的石峰石柱、古老的植物构成茂密的植被贯穿峡谷,泉水遍布,非常适合徒步穿越和露营。随处可见的悬崖绝壁,是攀岩的极好场地, 贵州许多处于原始状态的高山密林、峡谷溪流以及神秘的洞穴,都非常适合进行登山探险、探洞溯溪等户外运动。马岭河大峡谷 许多近现代的矿洞遗址也值得一游,如万山、修文的汞矿,水城的铅锌矿,晴隆的石膏矿等。 贵州一些现代建筑也值得驻足一看,如随处可见的大小不同、结构各异、姿态万千的公路桥梁组成了中国桥梁的博物馆。而各式各样的大小水电站则是中国水电工程的博物馆。桐梓建于四十年代的天门河水电站,已经运行了六十多年未曾大修过。猫跳河短短几十公里的河道中密布八个结构不同的水电站。坝陵河大桥 贵州的各种美食小吃十分丰富,不论你走到哪里,都有令你开胃难忘的美味佳肴。 贵州,三里一景、十里一貌,沿途风光也处处奇妙,如你开着你的越野车游览贵州,景点最少的县也够你玩满一天,而景点较多的县你三天也玩不全。而且如上所介绍的景点绝大部分都没有开发,不但不收门票,还是你们独自游玩的:“私家花园” 贵州:美丽神奇的公园省,自驾游、户外运动的天堂。来吧朋友,你会迷上它、爱上它的。 看了贵州侠客的这篇帖子,我对即将开始的贵州之行充满了期待。 按计划,我在出发前20天上网定火车票。本来原来的计划是从沈阳到重庆,经重庆去遵义,在遵义开始我的贵州之旅。可沈阳去重庆的火车是从哈尔滨发车,网上不出售沈阳出发的卧铺票,这让人很无奈。后来查到有一列从长春出发去昆明的火车经湘西过贵州,可以在网上定卧铺票,于是决定改乘这趟车。本来,如果从少走冤枉路起见,第一站应当选在贵州镇远,可这趟车到达镇远的时间不好,是下半夜的1点34分,于是只好继续往前坐,到安顺下车,因为这趟车到达安顺是早上的6点47分,正好开始新的一天。只是这样一来,我的乘车时间将长达56小时,跨越3300公里,无论时间还是距离都创下了我最长的一次单次乘车记录。 9月13日下午下班后,我去大东副食买了些熏鸡、火腿、方便面等食品水果,然后回到家里。 火车10点54分发车,晚上9点30分,我背起背包,走出家门。虽然出门就有公交车,我还是徒步向2.3公里外的沈阳北站走去。我喜欢徒步,尤其在这喧嚣散尽的宁静的都市秋夜,清风和煦,让人心旷神怡。都市漫步,既可以有效把控时间,又可以运动身心,享受生活,何乐不为? 半个小时后,我已经来到沈阳北站。整修改造了整整两年的沈阳北站终于全面完工,地下通道四通八达,宽敞明亮。出租换乘全部在地下对接。 走出地下通道,安检进站。来到候车室。等车进站。 火车正点进站,上车以后已经11点,关灯睡觉。 D1—D2(0914—0915):火车上 早上醒来,已经6点多钟,火车还没出山海关。 从沈阳和我一起上车的老爷子,87岁了,身体倍棒,自己上下中铺毫不费力,真令人羡慕。 原来,他是和闺女一起来沈阳探亲,儿子给买的回程票。13日晚上儿子送他们到火车站。到车站,闺女一看手里的票,竟然是14日的。因为着急回去,她连忙到售票处办改,还不错,竟然有票,不过原来的两个下铺变成了一个中铺和一个上铺,而且不在一个车厢。没办法,闺女只好把老头送过来,安顿好,然后回到自己的车厢。 记不清了,好像这个就是那老头的闺女。 乘坐56个小时的火车,对许多人是一种难以忍受的事情,对我则无所谓,在我看来,上了火车,它迟早会把你送到你要去的地方,所以,只管像在家一样,该干嘛干嘛。 虽然这条路已经走过了无数次,可我总是看不够沿路的风景。 正是新兵入伍的时节,很多车站都有新兵等待乘车去部队。这是在天津车站等待上车的新兵。 火车上的人们,消磨时间各有各的方法。年轻姑娘们最时尚的当然是玩手机。 车上的美女和美少妇还真不少。还有顽皮的孩子和慈祥的老人 这几位,分别是辽宁石油学院、中国石油大学和青岛石油学院毕业的大学生,幸运地被中石油聘用,被派到昆明参与前些日子引起很大风波的安宁PX石油项目。在火车上,他们小心地和一位当地的姑娘(下图)论证当地人对石油人的态度,担心群众闹事,生命安全得不到保障。 昆明姑娘说话语速极快,机关枪一样用本地话给他们解答。 火车一路行进,15日晚7点到达湘西张家界。这个地方我2002年来过,那是我第一次开始自助旅行,就是从那以后,我开始了迄今12个年头的自助游经历。 D3(0916):多云转晴 安顺—云峰(七眼桥)—安顺早上,睡醒以后,发现车停了,透过车窗,原来火车刚刚到达贵阳。7点整,火车晚点几分钟到达安顺。下车出站。 走出火车站,先找旅馆。 出火车站前行不远就是一个小集市,许多老乡前来卖菜。其中最引人瞩目的就是身着奇异装束的屯堡妇女。安顺地区,是600年前明王朝屯垦戍边的屯堡的密集分布区。 从贵州中部一直向西,再向西,就是云南。这是从内地通往这个著名的西南边陲最为便捷的途径。从600年前开拓的古驿道到后世修建的公路、铁路,都沿着这个方向不断延伸。 1902年,日本人类学者鸟居龙藏在贵州考察时,在安平县(今平坝县)郊外,看到几个打扮既有别于当时的汉族,又不同于附近少数民族的妇女,引起鸟居龙藏的好奇。向当地人打听:这是什么民族?一些当地人告诉他,这是“凤头鸡”。 第二年,鸟居龙藏的同事伊东忠太在安平也注意到这个特殊的人群。他问地方官员,官员回答是“凤头苗”。其实,所谓“凤头鸡”、“凤头苗”,就是地道的屯堡人。他们是当年江浙一带正宗汉民的后裔,是当年屯垦戍边的将士的妻女。所谓“凤头”,就是凤阳头,是600多年前明太祖朱元璋的家乡凤阳女人的梳头方式。 如今,600多年过去了,这些屯堡女人的装束依然保持着祖制,鹅黄色的长衣大袖,外围黑色的围腰,腰间系上一条彩色丝带。精致的花边透着江南刺绣的神韵。长发挽起用圆网罩于脑后,并且佩戴着玉簪等首饰。这些明朝皇帝朱元璋老家汉族妇女的正统装束“凤阳汉装”,屯堡女子一穿就是600多年。 据说“文革”初期,有造反派来强迫她们卸去“奇装异服”,可他们一走,女人们照样又汉装穿上身。 与外界长期的误判形成鲜明对照,屯堡人对于自己的身份有着清晰的认识,在安顺,哪怕是目不识丁的乡下农妇,你问到她什么民族,来自何方时,她都会毫不犹豫的回答你:“我们是屯堡人,我们的祖上是朱元璋‘调北征南’的时候来到贵州的。” 屯堡及屯堡文化和其背后的传奇故事,正是我此次来安顺旅行最感兴趣的东西之一。 走过集市,来到安顺汽车客运站(客运南站,安顺有好几个客运站——除了南站,还有西站和北站等等),在这里找个小旅店,安排住下。 安排好住处,放下背包,出去逛街。 本来按照原来的计划,今天准备去云峰屯堡景区,可昨天在火车上吃糖时,把嘴里的一个烤瓷牙牙套粘了下来,这下子吃东西非常不方便。必须得赶快修好,这是个大事情,关乎今后一个月的顺利旅行,所以我改变计划,今天先在安顺市内转转,顺便找地方修牙。 走出旅馆,走进车站对面的小巷,里面是一个很热闹的集市。还有一个小学校,一群孩子正准备上学。 在小巷转了一圈,回到南华路上,继续北行。 毕竟是南国,此时,沈阳已经秋雨降温,人们全副武装。可这里的姑娘们还是一身短打,看着就清爽。。 来到转盘塔山东路和塔山西路的交界处,这里有安顺的名山——西秀山,这是一座在平地间突起的石山,峻峭挺拔却并不太高,大约有三十米左右,山上有一座石塔,洁白如洗,塔身呈锥形六边体,七级,据说始建于1326年,是元代安顺三大建筑之一。 山下有绕山一圈的休闲公园带,很漂亮,上山有木制的栈道,沿栈道登上山顶,顿时视野开阔,小小安顺尽收眼底。 从山上看,山后有一座天主教堂,是一栋四合院建筑,很宽大,整个建筑似乎都是老建筑,但在礼拜堂的后面,竟然有一栋中式的亭阁式的建筑及几栋高大的中式砖木古建筑。 下山继续北转,这里可以看到西秀山全貌。 山脚下是一个小广场,一群人正在跳街舞。 中秋快到了,这里还准备举办月饼展销会。 小广场旁边,西秀山脚下还有一座寺庙,名为“圆通寺”。是两进的庙宇,据说始建于1352年,后来逐渐建成一组宏大的建筑群,曾排名安顺三大寺庙之首。但到“文革”后仅剩一座大雄宝殿,近年已经修复。 圆通寺旁边就是我在山上看到的天主教堂,这是一个四合院建筑,两厢是二层楼,正面是礼拜堂,墙面是用精石料砌筑成正三角形,顶部有十字架。 走进礼拜堂,麻雀虽小,五脏居全,很像那么回事。 看过了圆通寺和天主教堂,继续前行,来到有一个十字路口,这里正在进行路口改造。透过围栏,看到街区对面有一组古建筑,这就是安顺武庙。 安顺武庙是很有名气的建筑,原名慈云寺,据说始建于明洪武十五年(1382年),有600余年历史,原名寿亭侯祠,后改称关帝庙。清康熙五年(公元1666年)改建为武庙。在民国八年(1919年)因将关羽、岳飞合祀,又称关岳庙。但安顺人一直称其“安顺武庙”。 武庙大殿石柱堪称安顺各寺庙之冠,36根石柱全系整料白料石,柱间均用厚木枋穿斗连接,其选料之精,雕凿之实,连接之妙前所未有。整座武庙囿于地理,占地不广(仅3200平方米,为文庙的三分之一),但其规制齐备,布局精致,殿宇楼阁相得益彰,廊庑厅厢各呈特色,座北朝南之象观亦合武运之道。武庙泮池成八梭形,暗合八卦,此亦有别于其他古建筑,为武庙增色不少。大殿塑像有二,皆关羽像,一为坐像,一为行像。一殿二像且为同一人,此构思布局匪夷所思,为天下唯一。其柱联贴切有味:“兄玄德,弟翼德,德兄德弟;师卧龙,友子龙,龙师龙友。”([]

There are many like-minded asking me about it. I now present this thread to briefly tell everybody about my journey.The starting point of this traverse was from the highest peak of the western part of the Tibetan plateau, Jieshan Daban, and the day was April 20, 2010.I was heading eastward passing Bungdag Co, Yanghu Co, Rola Co, and Kangzhagri Mountain, which crossed over the desolate region from west to east. The journey continued northward to enter the unpopulated area of Altun Mountains, through Hoh Xil Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, Whale lake, ..., finally met some people by the Aqqikkol Hu and then arrived in Huatugou by vehicle three days later and that day was July 5. It had been 77 days in total. I had been all alone 74 days after leaving Jieshan Daban until arriving inAqqikkol Hu, which was about 1400km and about four months.[The Great Chang Tang] In Tibetan, "Chang Tang" means northern empty wilderness while narrowly, means unpopulated region in northern part of Tibet. However, it actually indiCATes all of the no man's land in northern. The great Chang Tang includes desolate places in Northern Tibet, Hoh Xil, Alun Mountains, and Kunlun Mountains, which are interconnected to form the unique and super empty wilderness in the world. Only because Hoh Xil is the most known name, most people just think this vast land is equivalent to Hoh Xil. In reality, Hoh Xil is only a small piece of the Great Chang Tang both administratively and geologically. The Great Chang Tang, the last land to chase your freedom and dream.The route that I traversed ForeplayI arrived in Tibet in the early March, a couple of troubles bothered me. The brand new plug got its positive and negative wrongly connected; the rivets of my rucksack eASIly got broken from now and again; and a multi-functional charger got damaged and so on. Riding my bike to Ngari for warming up of this journey, lost my rucksack but later got it back; lost my camera bag and got it back later again, and finally lost a big bicycle pannier in the street of Gyangze town under the eyes of police, including clothes, solar panel and so on.Without much choice, I returned to Lhasa to adjust all the stuff I would need in the wilderness. Then I begged some luck by going to Nyingchi to enjoy the blossoms of peach trees and to take a hot spring bath. I even had the privilege to enjoy time with ten girls in the hot spring. I felt my bad luck had all gone and then returned to Lhasa again to prepare going to Ngari. I did not expect that I was cheated on by some hustler and lost some money and delayed my schedule for a week. I had to find a car myself quickly to Nagri. However, I lost the tool for fast-parting my rear wheel on my way to Nagri, where was a remote area in Tibet and nowhere to buy the tool. Even if there was one in Lhasa it would take at least ten days for a special delivery service. I was lucky that my mate Duola asked a driver to bring the tool for me from Lhasa. I thought there should be no more nightmare like this but the nozzle of my brand new multi-fuel stove was broken. The next day I tried everywhere to weld them back together. The first three shops could not do the welding for copper. The fourth one said they could do it but could not guarantee a sUCCess. The engineer said it would be ten Chinese yuans if it was a success. I agreed. Just in seconds, my nozzle became crap in a flash of lightening. I was so upset. Again, Duola helped me by bringing her own MSR oil stove and Dingding's sleeping bag to Nagri. That was already April 16 and I did not have much time to waste. The following day I found a vehicle heading to Jieshan Daban.The sand storm over Yarlung Zangbo RiverA lonely peach tree blossoming in Yarlung Zangbo Grand CanyonNatural hot spring in wild, me singing and drinking (photo by a friend of mine) Day 1(April 20), 16km, Camping 5192mIt was a truck with a full load of iron wastes, arriving in Jieshan Daban at 6'o clock in the morning. It was still night and extremely cold and dark. Driver was not bothered to pop his head out of the driving cab. I climbed up on the top of the iron wastes, taking my bicycle down. In a hurry, I punched my old water bag. Fortunately I had another MSR water bag given by a friend of mine otherwise I would definitely fail without even starting my journey. For the first time for me to set up the brand new tent in strong, cold winds. It would be impossible to do so if the tent was not a whole piece. Extremely cold outside, about -15C, might be lower than that, I put my head into the sleeping bag but was nearly suffocated to death, honestly. The smell of Dingding's sleeping bag was, lol, so extraordinary. I woke up around 11 o'clock. There were still strong winds outside so that I had to use my bodyweight to keep the tent in place. At the time when I just started to cook and eat, four patrolling soldiers approached me. To their surprise someone, in this season, camped in Jieshan Daban. I was so nervous and afraid they were the people to block my journey because I was caught and deported from the desolate land last year. Luckily the four soldiers did not know my destination and were very kind to me. After they left, I immediately packed my stuff and pushed my bike into the depths of the unpopulated area just in case anything unexpected happened.The bike was very heavy due to the provisions and hard to control. There was even a quite small hill that I had to remove my bike panniers to get over it. This really struck me because this happened even the path was still the hardship one at the moment and I could not imagine what I would do once I entered the uncertain, endless wilderness. Until now I had not met anyone, even the nomadic pastoralists. I remembered there were quite a few of them roaming at the edge of the northern Tibetan plateau last year. All of these indicated it was not the good pasture season in such low temperature and strong winds. Around 16km there was a sheep cote, where I passed it last year, east of Lungmu Co. I was exhausted at this point so that I decided to camp in here and to rest my head. After arranging tent everything I went out to look for the wetland discovered by Duola and Liumeng last year. I was determined to find it.There were many hot springs in the wetland which were underground water with a constant temperature. The wetland therefore became an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such harsh weather, which was the very unique land feature of terrain in this over 5200m highland.Perpetual snow in the valley blown to corn shape by strong windsThis wetland was discovered by Duola and Liumeng. The workers at a nearby mine did not know it and I too missed it last yearUnderground water with a constant temperature, an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such icy weather 感谢大伙儿支持和加分,不一一回复了。特别感谢多啦,希望能有机会一起喝酒吃肉。 Day 2 (April 21), 0km, Camping5192mBlustering gale all night, up and down like ocean waves. The next day rather than continuing to travel, I stayed inside the sheep cote, hesitating and pondering over. Indeed, there were so many problems before this journey;I did not have sufficient physical preparation;the load had already reached its limitation; I still coughed a lot;the weather was so extreme and cold. All in all, I did not think this journey was well prepared and I did not have confidence in completing this journey mentally and physically. To do, or not to do, it was the question. Similarly I did not have confidence in my facilities, not knowing whether all of them would work functionally or not. The fact was one of the rivets got broken again and the front rack came loose. In the afternoon, I replaced all the rivets of the panniers with screws I had prepared before. This was an excellent job I had done which gave me no further troubles throughout my whole journey. I also re-adjusted the front rack. However I did not think it would definitely all right because I did not have a tool to do it. When the darkness descended,I made up my mind to continue my journey, which, of course, was not beyond any imagination. Orchid-like weedsSmall springs everywhere, clear and chillyA thin layer of ice covering the fresh spring water The sheep cote, it was the door under the sleeping bag, which was in the same place as last year, everything looked like yesterdayThe wetland at duskLungmu Co at dusk. You could hear the gigantic sound of wind if the picture had a sound Day 3 (April 22), 52.4km, Camping 5145mGot up in the morning, could not put everything into the bags. Without much choice I had to throw away three portions of tsampa, elbow pads, and crampons. Following the road of the lead-zinicmine I found the side path to enter the wilderness, which was on the riverbed and very hard to see. I missed this side path last year so that I had to take a short cut into the wilderness directly then. That was why I had taken extra care to find the side path. The following journey was to get over a big hill, which lay 5275m above sea level and was the highest point of my whole journey. Around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I passed the side path leading to Orba Co and started a journey which was complete strange to me. I ate a piece of pilot breads, which was frozen like rocks so that I had to use my spade to crush it. At 6 o'clock in the evening, I had pushed plus rode my bicycle for about 32 km. I reckoned I should have been able to double this if I did no carry such heavy load. The wind became stronger and stronger. I opened the parasail kits and tested it. The result was far beyond what I expected. With the aid of the strong wind I was just like flying over the wilderness. After 8 o'clock in the evening, I started to observe the water Source and to get ready to camp. Map showed there were successive springs along the path and assembled to puddles. But I had overestimated the water source here in this land and in this season there were endless wilderness inside the valley, where I could not see a single drop of water. As it became darker and darker, I felt a little bit nervous which resulted in three spokes of the parasail broken and became a useless rubbish. Anyway, it helped me to move forward 20km more which benefited me a lot later on. When time approached 9.30 pm, it was almost completely dark. I had to lie my bike on the ground and went on to try to find water on the north side of the valley. This was a wide and flat sandy land, where I could not see any ditches there and further was complete darkness. I returned to get my GPS to look up the contours and found the south part of the valley was closer to a hill so I took the way. Finally I found a piece of ice in a ditch. I smashed about 20litre of ice. The ice was quite shallow scattered with sheep poo. On my way back, my eyes were hurt by strong winds, which got me a couple of days to recover. It was nearly 23 o'clock after I set up the tent. It also took about 40 mins to melt the ice. I was so tired and my appetite was completely spoiled. I then had a little bit of milk. I had never expected thing would go like this, it was so distressing. Streams along the path, ice everywhereThe river flew into Matou Hu, in whose north part there was a satellite lake, a wonderful ice-skating court It took 40mins to melt the ice in midnight Day 4 (April 23), 31km, Camping 5028mA cloudy day with gusts. From now and again, hails chased me from behind. Sunny spell. Heavy sandy land made me have to push my bike. At 3pm, I arrived at Luxing Hu, where there was a house made of clay. This was the last permanent building of my journey. Last year, Duola and Liumeng once lived in this house for three days without meeting anybody. It seemed it was the same but the truck parking in front of the house made me worry about. I went to the sheep cote first to check over, where there were only a few lambs following me everywhere I went later on. This made me feel warm in my heart. I observed farther places using my binoculars but could not see any people or sheeps. After making sure there were no people around I opened the locked door using a screwdriver. The living room was very clean. There were two boxes of beverages on the ground and a string of cured lamb legs hanging over in the interior room. A pot of water was on the top of the stove, lukewarm, which indicated the host must be not far away from his home. I filled up my water bag and left the house. I also put the screws back to the door in order not to leave any trace of my visiting. I then took a spanner from the toolbox of the truck, which gave me great help for the rest of the journey.I left the house as quickly as possible. After last year's experience, the nomadic pastoralists were the last people I wanted to meet. A few hundred meters away from the house, the vehicle traces were fading fast. Even downhill, I had to push rather than to ride because of the heavy loose sand. From the route point of view, only after Luxing Hu it was the real unpopulated land. After many days, I thought of the lamb legs from time to time. It was pity that I then had plenty of provisions and the bike was too heavy to carry anything more. Continue to melt the ice under the morning sunshine, all of the sheep poo had been removed carefullyCamping site, the little hill over there was the place where I got the ice last nightThe house by the Luxing Hu, empty, the last permanent building I saw throughout my journeyDay 5 (April 24), 19.8km, Camping 4951mSet off at 10.30 in the morning, the weather was similar to yesterday. Probably this road was the high plain or somewhere the wind passed so that it was so windy. The average wind speed was degree 6 but could reach degree 9 in the blick of an eye. The road was still full of sand and very heavy to walk on it. My eyes became worse under such harsh weather. About three o'clock in the afternoon, I saw something in my right, looked like antenna. I went closer to see what it was and found out it was an iron tower (the triangulation station). In 1970s, a joint team from Chinese three military regiments entered this area doing research. They have left a lot of triangulation stations and benchmarks, which I had the priviledge to see them today.At dusk, I approached to a spring by the Bungdag Co, which flew into the frozon lake. The sand and soil, brought by the strong wind, scattered on the surface of the ice all over the lake. There were so many cracks around the icey surface of the lake. I geussed it must be caused by the springs under the water rather than by melted ice. In the west of the Bungdag Co was the side path leading to Keriya Pass, where a SUV could reach directly. I had looked out any vehicle Tracks but failed. The cloudy sky started to snow. I set up the tent comfortably because I knew that I was safe having such a sweet spring beside me.Triangulation station erected by scientists from the joint research team on Chang Tang of three military regiments in 1971[size=+0]The gap between water and ice in Bungdag Co, I guessed there must be some springs under the lakeThe storm just above the ground, a chaotic darkness[size=+0]Icy Bungdag Co,one of the four biggest lakes in Northern Tibet, wild ducks flying over this vastness and lonenessSnowing at any time, should not happen so frequently like this in this seasonDay 6 (April 25), 4.3km, Camping 5002mWeathering landforms everywhere around this area. Spongy volcanic rocks could be found easily. I pushed my bike turning around a small hill, seeing a big river, the Yinshui He, flowing from Orba Co into Bungdag Co, which I had been to its upstream last year. It was also a passage for animal migration. The downstream of the river was extremely wide and broad. The thickess of the ice layer could reach one meter with the main stem in the middle course of the river, very deep. There were a few springs along the river, sweet and clear.I only went forward a little bit more than 4km but I had walked more than 20km for finding my way. It was not possible to cross the main stem, let alone the north bank of Bungdad Co. What I could only do was to try to find a shallow place to cross. But the southern area was a even larger piece of wetland and forced the road turn towards west. I spent a couple of hours but failed to find a good point to cross the river. In the afternoon, I decided to follow the edge of the wetland. When I reached the hill foot, the wetland finally disappeared. Around this area, there were clearly volcanic feature of terrain and I even found traces of pasturing and cairns made from volcanic rock.Here was the last pasturing trace I found throughout my journey, I guessed it was a summer pasture area. After this, there was no clear sign of human activities in this vast wilderness. I had been looking for my ways until it was dark. I made up my mind where to go TOMOrrow. The terrain here looked like Yardang landforms, as well as volcanic landforms The Yinshui He river from Orba CoSprings scattered all over the river bank, painted green by lovely algaeThe river was very deep. The mixture of green and amber colour showed the sand and mud carried by the melted iceThick layer of ice, sunken surface caused by strong gustsThe south course of the Yinshui He, countless small streams. To the right was the wetlandLooking for ways in the east, a trace of pasturing and the cairn made from spongy volcanic rocksMy camp, opposite to the hillDay 7 (April 26), 11km, Camping 5009mI moved forward to the direction I found yesterday, turning around the wetland and walking toward east. At 2pm, I was blocked by the zigzag Yinshui He again and I had no choice but to cross it. The river was about 700m wide, covered by ice which appeared very different. The hanging ice, the folding ice, the piling-up ice, the icy puddle, and the sleet were everywhere along the river bank. Having noticed all of these, I reckoned the river would be receding at dusk, which was why there were so many different shapes and forms of ice. I put my slipper on, going into the main stream of the river. I found there were at least three different courses of the river, the thickness of the surface ice varied and the river water reached above my knees. I sighed there would be no way back once I crossed this river. There are many ways in one's life too, you can only take it once and you will no long have the courage to repeat it.I pushed the bike crossing the river. Some of the ice was a bit soft, jamming the tyres so that I had to use my feet to break them first. Some of the ice was a bit thick but with half-melted underneath, sticking the the bike completely, some of the ice was half-water half-ice with a sandy riverbed, which was really hard to pass. I had to remove all of the panniers at the last stage of the crossing. I spent the whole four hours to cross the river, my legs got many bloody cuts. At 6pm, the surface ice was almost disappeared completely, the river level rapidly rising to a chaotic status. I thought if I hesitated a little bit at that time, I could not have the courage to cross this river under such circumstances. The river bank was unimaginably sandy and was quite steep. I had to unloaded the panniers again to reach the top of the bank. By the time of sunset, the weather became exceptionally good. The sunlight from the descending sun, the blue sky, the faint moon, .... I liked such a colorful and peaceful Chang Tang and very much enjoyed my camp and myself bathed in such beautiful colour.The ice like this was very thin and suspended, far away from the main stemHard surface with half-melted underneath, the soft sand at the botton was most scaryThe ice like this could easily jam the wheels, hard to get it outI had to unload the panniersChaotic water and terrible hails turned up in no timeThe Chang Tang at the moment liked it used to be,a mixture of cold and warm tones under the golden setting sun Day 8 (April 27), 14.6km, Camping 5112mLast night, I forgot to bring in the odometer, which was out of order due to the coldness in midnight. Since then I used GPS to check the mileage. The digital thermometer was no longer working. I had to use mercury thermometer to collect data. Night temperatures were basically between –15℃—–20℃ while the temperature inside my tent was about –10℃. The advantage of the integrated tent was that it limited the ventilation so to keep warm inside. However, it got clearly disadvantage of heavy condensation and dew. Every morning, there was plenty of frost inside the tent so that I had to put my hood on First Before fully getting dressed. The winds in Chang Tang finally became consistent with the pattern I had researched the other day no or very tiny wind in the morning, strong wind started after 2pm, and then at around 8pm its strength was reduced again. The accuracy of this prediction was about 80%.The road was very bad today. I walked whole afternoon in an ancient riverbed and it was so difficult that I had to use all of my strengths to move a small step forward and then to stop to breath, slower than a snail. After five hours' struggling, my eyes got wet when I saw the grassy river bank. Finally! The nightmare was over.Cold and clear morningHeavy morning condensation in the interior, a lot of frost to clearSuch dawning sunlight indicated a cloudy day ahead Day 9 (April 28), 18km, 5072mIn the morning I entered a range of sandy roads which were so terrible. The solar panel specially designed for GPS got short circuited. After checking it was found to be the diode got damaged. Luckily I got a replacement. Because the GPS was exclusively supplied by a solar panel so that it was no longer a problem for the power supplement of GPS. In a period of 70 days, I did replace the battery once, which saved me a lot of alkaline batteries. I did have another solar panel of 5.4 W which was used specifically for 7.5V Camera, DV and other digital facilities. Unlike water, I had never been short of power.At 7pm in the evening, I arrived at Pur Co. The surface of this lake was very odd the ice by the river bank rose and the river bank was broken, I reckoned that was due to the strong winds. The ice there was mingled with something yellow, could be the stain of alkali. There were many wild yaks on the other side of the lake. There could be two brown bears but I could not be for certain. On the east side of the lake, there was a peninsula leading to the centre of the lake. I camped just opposite to the peninsula. At night , I smashed the ice to get drinking water, which tasted alkali. For the first time I cooked the cereals, which was brought completely by accident. This was just because I found there was a little bit of extra space when I was in Nagri packing the stuff for this journey so that I bought two packs of cereals. It tasted disgusting, probably there was too much alkali in the water. I threw away half of it. Later I realised that probably I subconsciously felt that the provisions was so heavy. I would rather make it lighter at any cost.Dry all my stuff in the morning sun, a routine matterA faint dusk in Pur CoThe river bank pushed up by ice and opened like zipper by gustsThe pushed up surface of the iceThe place where I got my drinking water, a thin layer of ice behind the ablation corns The moment just before sun set, glittering Pur Co, nothing was the same差点儿没找到俺自己的帖子,原来变色了。多谢各位鼓励。 Day 10 (April 29), 16km, Camping 5141mIn the morning, I walked around the north bank of the Pur Co, where it were continuous ups and downs sprinkled with light yellow sprouts across the sparse grassland. The wild yaks clustered into small groups. All of a sudden, there was a group of five of them running towards me, blowing a huge cloud of dust with the power of thunderbolts,I believed that anyone who did not know the characters of the wild yaks must be frightened to death under such circumstances. The fact was the wild yaks in groups never injured people. Rushing to you just to show you its territory. When they approached people at certain distance, they would turn sharply and run away, and then stopped somewhere high to stare at you. You can not imagine that the wild yaks were very cautious animals compared with its almost one ton of weight. Their first reaction, when meeting people, was to raise their tails, the front hooves rubbing against the ground, the horns pointing forward, the eyes redden, and the long body hair shaking, all of which showed their determination to fight.This was the warning sign that you should retreat. However, you should realise that this was only a gesture that they were afraid of you and wanted to scare you away. The thing was that if you were not afraid of them and moved forward, they would run away in no time. There were only some mad yaks attacking people, which was really rare to happen. In Chang Tang, an experienced driver know that it is very dangerous to pass directly from two or three lonely wild yaks. They always tried to avoid confronting them directly. If this was not possible, they would lit a cigarette, smoking, to wait until the yaks walked away themselves. This was because the wild yaks really could attack vehicles, which was not completely rumors. I once asked them why I had not been attacked. They told me that because my bike was so small they would not be bothered to attack it. My own experience was that approaching a wild yak very slowly, do not look into its eyes, and ignored what it was doing. As long as it moved forward a little bit, just stop and give the yaks a little bit of time to think. Because if you forced the yak, it could be themost dangerous animal in the world and nothing could stop them killing. Even a gunshot could not kill it but only left a small hole in its skin. In the past, the nomads living near this land would use yaks' skin as chopping board which was very much endurable. At noon, I lost my balacLAVA, which was brand new and I had never used it once. I could not be bothered to go back tofind it. This resulted in that I had to have my fleece hat day and night in the rest of my journey, which did not provide fully protection from the sun in the plateau. But somehow I was all right, perhaps because my skin is similar to those of yaks, lol. At around half past one, I found a deserted Jeep, upside down. I felt it could be there for years and it could be the vehicle of someillegal HUNTERs. Nowadays, we have wildlife conservation reserves in Chang Tang and the animals here are well protected. However, some people kills the wild yaks to sell them as the domestic yak's meat. In general, it is worth 10,000 Chinese yuans for a single wild yak. Therefore many people take the risk to make money. They often enter the unpopulated areas to hunt and their activities can reach 200 km in diameter. This is why the wild yaks in the deep wilderness are less afraid of people than thoseat the boundaries of the Chang Tang region.There once happened that a wild yak mother revenged its baby's murder in the Altun mountains. Its horns pierced the killer's chest and held his body over its head for more than ten days, which was very touching.Around 3pm, I walked out of the Pur basin. The next point was Hong Shan Daban and then it was the Yueya Hu by the Toze Gangri. At this time I found a vehicle track from south to north. I checked over but could not find the way where they had gone. I took my map, GPS, and compass, climbing up a small hill to estimate the location of Hong Shan Daban. The mountain was very round and it was hard to find the mountain pass. After determining the location of the Daban, I moved straightforward. When I passed a messy grassland, I saw something that I was reluctant to see more than hundreds of wild yaks' head scattered all over, which was definitely the scene of the illegal hunting. After that it was a very long ancient river bed with soft sand slowly rising until the foot of the mountain.There are some spines on the surface of the tongues of wild yaks, which are used by nomads in this area as combs. They use them from their teens to the time when their hair becomes silver.The deserted Jeep, could be left by illegal hunters years agoThe slaughtered wild yaks with the wheel size heads. Some of the skulls were chopped into half. Why was that? Could be taken away for making combs?My camp at the foot of the Daban underthe lingering golden rays of the setting sun. Tomorrow's weather must be wonderful, I reckoned Day 11(April 30), 20.4km, Camping 5120mThe surface of the road leading to Hong Shan Daban was very hard, most of them were small rocks, sort of gravels, plus a quite long downhill slope, I pushed my bike more than 20km for the first time after Luxing Hu. The mountain pass was quite flat, just like a broad ridge, it was 5256m above the sea level. Upon arriving at the pass, Toze Gangri of 6356m was in my sight clearly, very much round and there was no back bone like normal snow covered mountains. Most of the snow mountains in Chang Tang looked like this probably it was due to the geological movements. There were quite a few chirus or Tibetan antelopes in the valley but I was not interested in this kind of animals anymore after I witnessed a large scale of migration of such animals last year elsewhere.The herbivorous animals here are very quick to reach its original size of the population, such as wild yaks, chirus, Tibetan gazelle, pika, and marmot. When you go into the depths of the Chang Tang, you could hardly be surpised by the sudden appearance of the chirus because they are so common in here. At this time of year, the chirus have already male-female parted. You could see many pregnant female chirus but hardly see any males. According to recent research, Zonag Co is not the only lake for breeding. There are at least four of them in the whole Chang Tang. Zonag Co, Tuzi Hu, Heishi Beihu, and another lake I can not remember. I think there must be more than four of them and most of the populations do not migrant long way like most people used to think. They generally migrant from south to north between Central Mountains and Kunlun Mountains.The chirus looks very timid but are very curious about outside world. They are not really afraid of people, particularly in the depth of the Chang Tang. The nearest distance we can approach is about 30m. They just stare at you calmly and think who you are and why you move so slow. They would run in front of you. Look like they are afraid of you but the fact is they are playing with you. A man's own character shapes his fortune. This is of course suit for animals too. The chirus are the typical one. They have a super speed and a pair of sharp antlers. If they are crazy, three of them work together could easily kill a wolf. But as you might have known, their antlers are just for fighting to mate with females.Down the Daban there was a very steep and straight road, I tried to ride the bicycle but ended up with falling over. The front rack came loose and one of the pannier flew into valley. The foot of the mountain was the Yueya Hu covered by ice, which was alake full of heavy metal elements. Along the lake bank there were many stark rocks very much weathered, lining up just like castles or houses. This made me stop to investigate what they were from time to time, I did understand they were just rocks though but they were so real like the figures of real people. On of them even made me hide in a ditch, observing them again and again using my binoculars. There were also many black volcanic rocks. All in all, the features of this area were really unusual.Passed over the Yueya Hu, it was an endless ancient lake bed. What my GPS showed was this area was a big lake like tentacles. I looked around, it was endless wilderness without a piece of ice and a drop of water. Roughly, I estimated this lake bed was about 1200 square meters. I had to tell you that Chang Tang was a place where there was no high-resolution map. The marks in the map often were some kind of memory. Just like this ancient lake bed under my feet, may be it was full of water a few years ago. Who knows. Pushing the bike in such an endless lake bed was very easy to get lost. My mind was in a chaotic status too.The migration of the animals, photo taken last year The road rising up to the Daban, full of gravels, very hard, ideal for pushing your bikeThe Yueya Hu gazed at by the round and smooth Toze Gangri. At a glimpse, could you tell which was mountain, which was cloud?Ancient lake bed. The white stains were the alkali, look like ice. About wildlife (part 1)Declaration Personal experience for reference onlyDangerous wild animals and their threats to human beings are a ever-LASTING subject for those backpackers travelling in the wild.In Chang Tang, for example, there are two kinds of deadly animals, one is wolves and the other is brawn bears. As substitutes, wild yaks and crows might be dangerous to you in some circumstances that I will come back to this a little bit later on. As for how to protect yourself against these dangerous animals, I think the primary point is you do not try to hurt them because the emotions of human and animals are same instinctively. [Wolves]Throughout my journey, I met wolves a total of seven times, in which I confronted them five times. As you might have known that wolves have become more and more solitary animals, it is very rare they live in a large group nowadays. Please allow me off the point a little bit and talk about the ecological problems in Chang Tang. The problem is now not the decrease of the number of the chirus but the imbalance of the whole food chain, more specifically, the number of the animals on the higher trophic levels of the food chain has not yet reached its ideal level which results in this kind of imbalance. Particularly, the pikas and the marmots who have lost their predators rapidly expanse which results in the desertification of Chang Tang. As early as the middle of last century, wolves were the dominant predators in the vast wilderness. They became a threat not only to other preys but also nomads pasturing in this land. Therefore, the then government called on people to cull back the population of the wolves in Chang Tang, which resulted in the current situation directly. The last official record about wolves attacking humans was around 1970s, which happened in Bamaoqiongzong. A team of secientists was surrounded by a group of wolves and they had to shoot them using guns. Of course, at present in Chang Tang, wolves are absolutely lonely.In this traverse, the first time I encountered a pair of wolves, one of them staying in front of me pretending to attack me while the other staying behind me. This is the standard attacking strategy of wolves. First, you should not be nervous which can be easily detected by the predators. Second, you should not retreat even an inch because this means you are the prey rather than the predator. Do not make any large movement, of course you could take a picture if you feel safe to do so. You must look into its eyes for a few minutes or even half an hour. When the wolves can not work out who you are and consider you are not posing any danger to them, then they will leave. You should remember that wolves in this land do not lack of food and it is much easy for them to catch a pika than a human. Even if being hungry, they would evaluate how easy to get you done, What you need to do is to show them that you are not interested in them and you are not afraid of them at all, let alone to show your ID card to them. As for the wolves family, really, I have not heard for ages. If you really have an encounter with them and they have no other choice, then it definitely depends on your forture. In fact, for so many year, it has been very rare to happen that wolves kill human. But the rumours are still there, in particular, the road connecting Xinjiang and Tibet.The nearest encounter with a wolf throughout my journey, no conflict at all[Brown Bears]Brown bears are real dangerous animals to human. Every year there are some accidents happened in some regions of Xinjiang on the north side of Kunkun Mountains and steppes in Northern Tibet. More than that the bears could attack your house, smash your windows, and eat your sheep. Therefore, in Northern Tibet some local councils give subsidies to the pastorarists for compensating the losses due to the bears because they are not allow to fight back and kill the bears except their lives are in great danger. Once there was a nomad taught me a method to protect yourself from bears. He told me to pick up a stick to feed the bear and the bear thinks the stick is your hand which tastes disgusting. So the bear would leave. It was so funny but the reality is to find a stick in this vast wilderness is just like you win the lottery.Bears are omonivorous animal who are generally not interested in human flesh. You can find that in most of accidents, the bears did not eat any of the human flesh rather they just smashed them for kind of fun that we could not understand. For the reason why bears kill human, one explanation is the conflict between human and wildlife in this extreme ecological environment. The nomads invade the habitats of the bears, which results in these conflicts. On the other hand, it might be because bears have quite high IQ so that they think it is much easy to kill a sheep in the cote rather than to kill a pika in the wild.I have met bears five times in my traverse, in two cases we were very close to each other. I had even walked with one of them for quite a while, just like we had a date for a walk. The fact is it is not that terrible like you might imagine. The same rules for dealing with wolves apply to bears. Never provoke dangerous animals. A bear can run at a speed of 40km/h, do you think you can compete this in a highland 5,000m above sea level?However, there is a situation where it is really dangerous, that is the encounter. It is not easy to control your instinctive reaction to the external dangers. Last year once I turned around a hill, there was a bear just in front of me. The bear of course was frightened by me with its front legs holding up, waving in the air and roaring. At that time I sat on the ground, ignoring it. The bear then left in a few minutes. Chang Tang is a vast land so that this is not that easy to happen. But if it does happen, really only God can bless you.The nearest encounter with a bear throughout my journey. This bear disappeared in a herd of wild yaks, which I had tried hard to spot, really weird About wildlife (part 2)Declaration personal experience for reference only.[Wild Yaks]I have talked about quite a few, like in the post of Day10. I will no longer talk about it.This was the funniest encounter with a solitary wild yak, who did not warn me. If I sat down, it sat down too. If I moved forward, it stopped. Could not imagine what it was thinking about.[Crows]Crows are dangerous only when you fall unconscious in the wilderness. Of course they will be the first to taste your flesh in that case. Unlike their cousinsliving in urban areas, the crows in Chang Tang have a larger body like eagles. When they fly over your head, you could feel like it is a piece of cloud. They are scavengers but like fresh meat too. It once happened that a baby was killed by crows relentlessly, let alone the lambs got killed by them. Once a nomad asked me for fireworks to scare the crows away. (They are sacred birds not to be killed by human)It is easy to defend yourself against crows, that is to keep fighting, never fall in the wilderness.A short break attracted the crows. Of course, they were miscalculating this time, photo taken last year[Strategies Adopted]At the time when I met the four soldiers in Jieshan Daban, they said there were many dangerous animals in the Northern Tibet and asked me if I had brought a shotgun. I think if they knew that I would enter Chang Tang they would definitely check if I really have a shotgun. The so-called defence facilities I brought with me were the fireworks and pepper spray. I had never used them. The fireworks were ruined and thrown away when I crossed a river and I had never opened the pepper spray. I even had never thought about this when camping in the night. The reason was I did not feel the needs. During the day time whenever I met any animals I had never touched the knife I had brought. I did not have anything to defend myself when I walked out to investigate the route. The Chang Tang is really a vast area so as to be very easy to detect anything strange.By the way, you'd better to avoid mating season's animals because even tamed rabbits could be aggressive in mating season.The thing is even if you have a gun, it is not very much helpful when bears attack you. Therefore, your attitude is most important.I can tell you something. Dogs are more dangerous than these wild animals. I had been chased by Tibetan dogs, pounced on by dogs in mating season, also besieged by a group of dogs. I really feel it is more useful to know how to defend a dog.Declaration again The above experience is from Chang Tang only. Of course, the more you prepared, the better. Day 12 (May 1), 23.8km, Camping 5117mToday was May 1 -- the Labour Day, I had been walking in some lake area marked in the map but clearly dried up. The lake basin was flat and hard so that I even pushed my bike more than 20km. Let it be the special treat for my May Day. After midday it became cloudy with growing winds. Since the Yueya Hu that I passed yesterday, there were no big lakes until Yanghu Co (My route would be between Jianshui Hu and Bairab Co), there was even no light alkaline water to drink so I had to pay extra attention not to miss any possible drinking water supply to fill up my water bag. There were a few very small lakes but all were alkaline puddles which was very shallow, whose depth was no more than the length of a half-finger. These puddles were covered with a hard shell of the mixture of salt and ice which smelled stinking and decaying when getting closer, must be toxic water I supposed. On the shore of this type of small lakes it was muddy soil and very hard to get closer.There was no sign of tundra at all.It was almost half past six when I found some snow corns in a ditch, which was the only drinking water supply of the day. There was a thin layer of melted ice on the surface of the ground near the snow corn, which was very hard to collect and was contaminated by the alkali. The snow corn was the yet melted thick snow, which was shaped like a corn by wind. The snow was quite hard and dry,porous like ice. I crushed a few snow corns, putting them into the water bag.They would be my drinking water tonight. These snow corns were the only one in today's wilderness, I reckoned the reason why they were not melted like others was the soil underneath contained large amount of ice blocks which acted as a freezer.Very strong gale in the night, it was hard to bear the sound of the vibration of the tent. Small single tent was good in the sense that it would not be blown away as long as you stayed inside. But you had to be very careful to set up the tent. I once did not pay much attention when doing so, the tent was blown away by winds, and rolling over like a Giant lantern ... I ran after it, got it back, and was exhausted. In general, it is not possible to fix the tent completely using tent pegs because they were not very much effective like large tents. It was snowing around 23 o'clock, the winds were howling from north,then the falling snow flakes landed on my tent quietly, I finally felt at peace and fell asleep. The flat ancient lake basin, assisting me walking more than 20kmSmall lake en route, toxic waterSnow corns, the only drinking water supply today Day 13 (May 2), 0km, Camping 5117mWaking up in the morning and opening the tent, the heavy snow outside must be sent by the God to force me have a break for the May Day. After lying in for a while, getting up and walking on the snowy ground out I went to have a look around. As first sight there were a herd of chirus. They were plainly to be spotted because they looked like a clear black straight line in the while snow. I returned to get my camera and then followed them to take some pictures. But they were very much alert and kept a quite long distance from me. I felt they were a group of pregnant females, instinctively protecting themselves from any potential harm. I was no longer short of water, the snow gave me a precious supply of drinking water. The problem was that they were very petrol consuming. I tool 8.6 litre of petrol and the oil stove was Duola's MSR. The pot was of 1.5 litre, mainly for boiling water. After several days' experiments, I found that the liquid water needed 16mins and 14-15mins to boil in the morning and evening, respectively. For ice, it would take 35-40mins while for snow it took 45-50mins. Melting snow was a very time and petrol consuming process so if I had a choice between snow and light alkaline water, most of time I would go with the latter. Lying inside the tent, listening to musics,I smoked a cigarette while gazing at the more and more chirus around me. Because it was very cold I had been wearing my shoes all the time. Now I just put my bare feet under the warm sun for some fresh air. I found three cuts in my hands and one in my sole. The cuts were about 4cm in length, looked terrible but it was actually all right really. Half of my toes were injured by to much walking, quite painful. I fetched my medicine bag and found I only got four patches of plasters, a serious mistake. One of the cuts in my hand had never been cured until I was out of this desolate land so as to feel like this finger would drop from my hand at any time. The others quickly recovered in a few days then new cuts appeared elsewhere. This process occurred periodically. I felt that it was somewhat related to the cold, dry weather and the lack of vitamins. The snow rapidly disappeared, which is unique phenomenon in Chang Tang. Because of the low air humidity and the high radiation from the sun, the snow was evaporating very fast, much quicker than the melting speed. Owing to this, the ground was generally still dry after the snow disappeared. In most cases, it would be only 2/5 left in the afternoon around 2 to 3 o'clock and small patches of ground could be seen. It would be completely all right for walking the next day. On the third day there could be some snow left in somewhere the sunlight hard to reach. So generally it could give you three days of water supply after a heavy snow like this. One of the pannier was broken, the most expensive one from deuter series, supposed to be waterproof. I will come back to it at some point later. Everything was covered by snow, no way out Lying in the middle of Chang Tang, listening to Tian Zhen's songs, and smoking Baisha cigarettes, what else can you ask for? The pregnant female chirus in migration, probably heading to Heishi Beihu to give birth([]
