加蓬伊根甲营地远景 因所在公司外事中非洲加蓬国一块石油地震勘探项目,我和队友们于2008年9月8日,从北京国际机场离境飞往加蓬。公司营地建在让蒂尔市以北二百公里左右的半岛伊根甲的一块草原上。附近村庄的房子稀少都建在树林里,周围都是原始森林,与外界交通补给全部靠水路,交通和通讯都不方便,我们在岛上一待就是几个月,说生活不枯燥那是安慰自己的真实的谎言。勘探项目接近尾声时,大家有时间了就一起踢踢球、打打牌,自我调节一下。一般我们不与附近的村民打交道(包括踢足球),以免造成不必要的麻烦。营地前面有一个大操场,等太阳西下时就可以抓紧时间在操场上踢球了,赤道国家的太阳都是很毒的。已经有一批队员回国,现在踢球的人不象以前那么多了。。。。啰嗦了半天该赶紧上图了。。。。走过路过麻烦您帮楼主 加分顶贴下面的 参选帖子 猎人户外精彩自虐:负重穿越肖坑大峡谷(华东第一大峡谷)https//bbs.8264.com/thread-1867379-1-1.html非常感谢 回帖是美德 准化营地鸟瞰 。。。像不像部队演习时的临时营房? 海上施工的工作照 为什么取名叫“少林足球”:因为大家在异国他乡生活久了,感觉就像和尚一样,修心养性,吃斋念佛;脱掉工作服赤膊上阵,在球场上撒欢一下,有的动作比较大,感觉就是在打斗而不是在踢足球。。。。精彩瞬间--门前解围 精彩瞬间--门前混战 精彩瞬间--拼抢 精彩瞬间。。。。断球 精彩瞬间--带球过人 精彩瞬间--射门 谁说赤脚的不怕穿鞋的 ([]

ϖ9;写在前面的话♥爱是一场风花雪月的追逐爱是直到天荒地老的奔跑世界太大我们很小唯愿至此启程,心手相连,踏遍天崖,走到海角……回来后,始终有一段话萦绕在我脑海中,难以飘散——沉醉巴厘岛,情迷印度洋。一花一世界,步步是天堂。大家好,自由行菜鸟先向各位前辈、各位看官鞠一躬!这是我和老公第一次手牵手走出国门!我之前只有一次自由行韩国首尔的经历,而老公简直就是这方面的小白。出行前我做了很多功课,终于给自己制造了一次完美的蜜月,完美的旅程。这篇文章,重游记、轻攻略,但若仔细阅读,一定能发现我带给大家小建议及各种tips。这篇文章,重图片、轻文字,请各位把它看做是一个感性的女子,对于一次旅游感性但真实的记录。作为一个入门级摄影爱好者,这次旅行照了好几百张图片,希望邀大家共赏!欢迎各位指导、观摩、提问……谢谢!===大片预告===蓝梦岛coconuts酒店的无边泳池巴厘岛醉美夕阳一花一世界步步是天堂 印度洋的壮阔海景难忘碧海蓝天好吧,新人携夫婿露脸,欢迎各种拍砖。(*^__^*) 嘻嘻……===大片预告部分结束,正文即将开始=== 出行前我们还真的是准备了大半年的时间啊!从完全不懂这世上还有廉价航空开始……囧~~~到慌里慌张的亚航抢票(由于慌里慌张,搞到最后还要改出行时间,于是承担了亚航高额的改费,悲勒个催!!!)踏遍了各大旅游论坛,吸取了N多前辈的成功经验和精华!甚至很多行程都是直接照搬前辈的。所以我们自认为我们的行程还是非常合理的。巴厘岛必去的区域这次我们都走到了。10天行程虽编排得满满当当,但一点都不累,松紧适度。前4天主要是跑景点,后6天悠闲轻松泡villa~~~乌布、lovina、kuta、uluwatu、蓝梦岛、nusadua~~~我们的行迹遍布了巴厘岛6大区,真是一次充实的旅行!利用网上的一张巴厘岛主要景点地图,画出了我们的路线!按照不同的彩色笔墨,再配合地图下面的文字,我们的每日行程就清晰可见啦~~~! 一说到巴厘岛,大家都会想到这是一个浪漫的地方。适合恋人牵手旅行,适合新婚夫妇共享蜜月……网上总是流传这一个说法——巴厘岛是一流的酒店、二流的海滩、三流的景点。1、对于海滩,我觉得巴厘岛确实不算很灵(蓝梦岛的dream beach除外,嘿嘿)2、至于景点,在我个人的理解下是有争议的,巴厘岛有很多人文的、历史的东西,需要沉下心来慢慢品味,虽然相比我国的历史景观相对渺小,但却有着独特的浓郁的巴厘味道!3、说到酒店!巴厘岛就确实很赞啦!我们全程住了6个酒店,有300多元一晚的经济型酒店,也有好几千两晚的私人villa,都相当的舒服!而且若不是蜜月,真的很推荐大家在巴厘岛多发掘几百块一晚的酒店呢,性价比超级高,而且一点不逊于那些奢华酒店!那么就从订酒店开始吧。我们全程一共选择的6个酒店,有冷门的,也有极其热门的。事后发现,其实真的冷门的更好。嘻嘻。因为事前没在别人的攻略或游记中看过图片,到了实地以后会有更多惊喜!首先说一下入住酒店的总体情况:9月4日-6日,乌布pertiwi 酒店deLUXE room 2晚9月6日,lovina nuguraha酒店1晚9月7日,kuta oASIs酒店1晚9月8日-10日,kuta villa de daun 叶子别墅2晚 (蜜月套餐) 9月10日,蓝梦岛coconuts酒店1晚9月11日-13日,nusadua kayumanis 肉桂别墅2晚 (蜜月套餐)出行前比较了最著名的两个订房网站booking和agoda!也学习到了一些。booking是预定后不需要付款,到了酒店后再用当地货币现场支付。agoda是预定后即扣款,现在不是只有信用卡的结算方式了,用支付宝结算更划算。两个网站的特价房都是预定后不能取消。价格嘛,反正我查过的房价加上税和服务费后都是booking稍便宜,但我不敢说一定!但是对于我们来说有一个问。因为是蜜月,所以在叶子别墅和肉桂别墅的那两晚,我们都想预订蜜月套餐(就是包含烛光晚餐啊、spa啊、铺满花瓣的私人泳池啊这一类“肉麻”的蜜月项目,我研究了半天,发现两个订房网站都不包含这些项目)所以我们最终还是选择了旅游代理为我们订房,房价会比订房网站更便宜,还能拿到很多benefit !我选择的中文代理是vivian。vivian家都可以通过QQ在线即时联系,也可以电话中文联系,非常方便。有需要代理联系方式的童鞋,可以跟帖回复索要哈~~~ 关于证我们此行是从成都出发,经吉隆坡转机抵达巴厘岛。亚航。成都-吉隆坡。因为要到马来西亚转机,所以涉及到马来西亚证,出行前做了大量攻略+自己亲身体验=120小时的免费过境意思就是:只要你从马来入境算起,120小时内会离开马来境内前往第三国,就只需到了机场后免费的过境即可吉隆坡-巴厘岛。巴厘岛是落地。所以只需准备:1、有效期在6个月内的护照2、回程机票3、在巴厘岛登帕萨机场购买25美金的落地费,获得单据即可这个部分,在接下来的游记中,会有详细图解!!!旅行装备1、出境游保险 国外和我国不一样,对本国居民几乎是医疗免费、义务医疗,但若游客在那里有个小病小灾的,或许都要支付高额医疗费。 所以出境游保险最好还是备一份。 具体的保险种类,这个确实太多了,未避免广告嫌疑,大家选择适合自己的就好。2、转换插头+接线板 按照别人的攻略,出行前我们就准备好转换插头+接线板。就单看我们的行程,涉及到的两个国家马来西亚和印尼就使用不同的插座插头,所以转换头必不可少,现在电子设备又多,再带个适合自己的接线板,就不怕充电烦恼啦。3、防晒霜+晒后修复 左边第一瓶粉色的是网络大热——水宝宝!我买的是无油无泪配方,我觉得真的不油呢!(我可是大油田哦!)朋友6月去柬埔寨用的水宝宝一小管的那种,她说那种很油!大家各自斟酌吧。 中间绿色的是香蕉船晒后修复,是芦荟精华来的。真心好用!在巴厘岛期间我和LG争相涂抹~~~被强烈阳光晒后皮肤先会起小颗粒,然后痒痒的,这时就赶紧抹这个,不要让皮肤发展到变红甚至脱皮的状态。总之这次出行,我们只是晒黑,真的完全没有晒伤! 最后金黄色那个就是大名鼎鼎的安耐晒金瓶!小贵!但是上脸的东西总想用精细一点!日系产品真的是无油,涂上去很清爽,我大油田肌,涂了这个还能再抹BB霜呢! 4、防晒衫 以前真心不了解这个用途,只觉得淘宝上一抓一大把,20-30块钱一件。直到出发前我一个闺蜜告诉我一定要买它,闺蜜刚从韩国留学回来,在韩国期间经常去海边浴场,她说人家都穿这个直接下海,她也穿,皮肤一样会被晒黑,但是不会晒伤! 一听到不会晒伤!我肯定就买了!于是为了拍照需要,我一次买了4件:玫红、荧光黄、橘色、白色。 这衣服的确强大!浮潜时直接穿着它下海,没有晒伤,和我们一起去的老外都晒得通红!上岸后一接触阳光没一会儿就干了!大爱!后来几天,我老公连T恤都不穿了,直接沙滩短裤配防晒衣,又潮又舒适又防晒! 5、水下相机 最后一件就是水下相机啦。我是在TB上租了一台。第一次使用,第一次浮潜,体会到了海底世界的美妙哦!嘻嘻! 带着水下相机出行海岛真的是乐趣多多。 泳池里可以照,浮潜时可以照。懒得拿单反时还能救个急!超多照片接下里的游记中一一奉上! 9月3日晚2130左右,我和LG抵达双流国际机场1号航站楼(现在1号只有川航和国际航线了),人还是蛮多的。因为出发前一周我才去了首尔,深深认识到成都人民对于出国旅游的热情,所以我们特意提前了很多到机场。 由于一周前才从这里出境,所以比较轻车熟路,拿着网上打印好的亚航登机牌,去柜台托运了行李后带着LG第一个冲到出关的地方。 由于我护照上有韩国证,所所以成都边检那个GG看了啥都没说就放行了,LG是白本出境,照例被拦下来多问了几个问。 我们的经验是:成都护照白本出境前往落地国家是完全没有问的哈,只需要提供你前往国家的机票就可以了,边检甚至没要求我们出示返程机票(我们准备了)和酒店订单。童鞋们放心出境吧。 9月3日2350,亚航红飞机准时起飞,9月4日4:30,准时降落吉隆坡LCCT廉价机场,一下飞机,顿时感觉真的是——廉价机场啊!一周前才去过韩国仁川机场,这差别确实太大了,LG说这个机场好像个工厂哦。不过廉价嘛,人家亚航的营销手段是很高明的。 下了飞机后就跟着大部队走,进了机场大厅直接上自动扶梯。上了二楼后,有马来证的朋友直接右转,一长排出境的柜台直接去出境就可以了。办理过境的朋友就看下图哈!!!!上了航站楼二楼后直走看左边,1分钟内就能看到!直接把护照和下一程机票递给过境窗口就是了,然后等着喊名字! 喊到名字的童鞋,拿回护照和机票什么的,转身往后走,后面是一排出口,从最左侧的出口出,把护照再给官员检查一下就可以出去了。(这段话有点儿绕,主要是当时忘了拍照,但仔细读读一定能体会的) 但这里有个问哈。第一次9月4日到达时是凌晨,就没有人要求我们填写马来西亚入境卡,但出境准备前往巴厘岛时,海关貌似问了我们为什么没有入境卡的存根,但当时我还没习惯马来英语确实听不懂,连问了几个“what”,他也无奈就放行了。 第二次9月13日是晚上抵达的,办理过境时就让我们填了入境卡的,然后把存根给了我们,第二天出境回成都时边检就收了我们的存根哈。看到有攻略说是在飞机上就要发放的,如果有朋友去的话,可以在飞机上就问问空姐、空少(有会中文的),该填的东西还是要填好,避免不必要的麻烦哈! 可以确定的是,去和回都没要求我们按指纹。 比较了吉隆坡LCCT机场和巴厘岛登帕萨机场。 LCCT的工作人员明显有素质的多!东南亚人民确实看起来就不那么“面善”有点凶的感觉,但是LCCT的工作人员你真的可以放心大胆地问他问,会热心给你指点的,不会像巴厘岛登帕萨机场,那些工作人员一副没见过钱的样子,总是找中国人索要小费,强烈BS!!! 走出机场后,看见的第一个店家就是网络大热的“OLDTOWN WHITE COFFE”(老街场白咖啡),因为要等几个小时才会继续飞,所以我们也选择在这里落脚,点了一份鹅肉粉,一份咖喱粉,一杯冰咖啡,一杯冰红茶,共计人民币70元的样子吧,在机场这个消费还是可以的,就是味道……我LG说我出了川系菜品其他的都吃不惯,所以走到东南亚我觉得就没有好吃的东西……咖喱味受不了的受不了啊 9月4日9时许,继续登机前往巴厘岛。 这是我们乘坐的红飞机!廉价机场,都是自己走着去登机的,哈哈! 9月4日1210分,飞机提前降落巴厘岛,本来还窃喜提前了,结果在跑道上滑都滑行了20分钟,真是1230准点到达啊!!!超佩服亚航的有木有。 一下飞机我又兴奋了!建在海边的机场耶!好美! 可惜单反没电了,我恨!于是水下相机+手机一阵乱拍!巴厘岛是落地!到了登帕萨机场后要做的第一件事就是跟着大部队去办理落地! 做了一个图,这样子一目了然了! 购买落地最好用美元现金,去中国银行可以换到!为什么说最好不要涉及刷卡、找钱等问呢!因为登帕萨机场的印尼工作人员就跟几辈子没见过钱一样,一看到自由行的中国人出现,就会想到小费!!!关于机场海关索要小费的问! 今年6月我朋友去柬埔寨时也碰到海关索要小费,她直接装听不懂,僵持了一下,放行了。但据说巴厘岛这边已经很嚣张了,直接用中文给你说“人民币”!如果在登帕萨机场被海关索要小费,先装听不懂,实在不行就给他,然后记住他的工牌,出来后和接机的工作人员碰头后,由他们的工作人员带着你去投诉!一定要投诉到底的! 如果大多数人英文都没好到可以直接和他理论的地部,所以先服软再投诉应该是个不错的方法!总之不要因为这些事影响旅行心情吧,毕竟也不是针对你一个中国人,是对大多数中国人都这样!哎,强烈呼唤国富力强啊!!!关于机场照相的问! 额!这个问!在登帕萨机场,能不照相还是别照了吧。如果被登帕萨机场的工作人员发现你照相,而你又确实照到了一些关键的示、建筑或者工作人员,那就会被罚款。走到别人的地界,英文又不是特别好,还真是纠结不清啊,于是所谓“罚款”、“小费”的傻傻分不清,也就只能“乖乖”认栽!曾经看到有人说过,登帕萨机场有专门抓人照相的人,会记录下来,过关时找你麻烦,所以大家,小心谨慎为妙!关于护照上落地盖章的问! 出了机场就看见我们订的接机工作人员,他把我们在巴厘岛10天的所有订单都交给了我们。然后他赶紧让我拿护照本给他看,开始还不懂什么事,原来是登帕萨海关经常故意少给你盖章,等你出境的时候就会出问,然后又是一大堆麻烦事,大家都懂了吧?!真是强烈BS!!护照本和出境卡存根上会分别盖章!大家一定要检查清楚。关于巴厘岛出境的问! 一定要妥善保管自己的出境卡存根,出境时要交给海关的。我们出境时就看见有老外弄掉了存根,然后就开始和海关漫长的纠结…… 还有一定要准备好每人150000印尼盾的现金,是出境费用,一定要是印尼盾现金!不然到时候在机场换汇汇率很糟糕! 出机场后,我们就看到了接机的老陈,和我们的司机gede~~~很幸运的是,未来几天的包车行程中我们都不需要更换司机,会一直由gede为我们服务!!!在几天的游览中,我们也和他建立了不错的感情,大家相处非常愉快! 9月4日下午1630,司机gede大叔带我们来到了乌布。 刚去了首尔自由行回来,初到巴厘岛,我承认我确实被shock到了!街道破旧而狭小,交通一片混乱,满街乱窜的摩托车,这是传说中的天堂吗?! 不过各国国情不同,很快也就适应了! 我们入住的第一个酒店在乌布,名叫pertiwi resort & spa。是一家鲜有人提及的酒店。但是入住后我们感觉真的非常好!就像置身在一个热带雨林花园中,每一步都是景色,光是光酒店都能走上好一阵!一到这里,LG就说,度假的感觉来啦! 由于我们到的晚~~~享受到了第一个福利,upgrade!房型被升级了。后来才发现,房间升级一般都是你订的房型已经被住完了,所以想升级的话,晚到酒店才大有希望哦!而且到了酒店后,不妨向前台多问一句是否可以升级,说不定会有意外惊喜!这就是peitiwi酒店的门牌。 小小的非常低调。 在巴厘,即时是超级奢华的酒店,门牌、大门什么的也都很小巧、低调~~~这是酒店的大厅。 呵呵,真心低调的有木有,但很有巴厘岛的味道!巴厘岛的各种石雕都让人爱到不行 爱死了这样的配色,非常有巴厘岛的感觉! 我们是9月4日-13日待在巴厘岛的,好像刚好遇到了学生开学后的一个小淡季,整个行程中住了6个酒店,都没有什么人,除了热门景点海神庙和百度库遇到了大批游客,其余时间大多都是我们两个自己玩。全程10天也只碰到3对中国夫妇(情侣)。这种自由行的感觉,真的很棒!就拿我们入住的第一个酒店pertiwi来说,入住的那两天,整个酒店就我们两个中国人,连亚洲面孔都没有碰到。酒店本身就像一个花园一样……如果有时间,一定要两个人坐在这里静谧地享受时光老公到了这样的环境中,一下子就放松下来,像个孩子,玩得非常开心!!!当然,在热带雨林中,我也很开心哟学一学这个石雕的动作!!! 下午1600,ratu spa的接送车准时来酒店大堂接我们。 ratu spa在乌布很有名,"ratu"在印尼语中是“女王”的意思,做这样的spa是指女王般的享受吗?ratu spa建在稻田边,房间窗外就能看到稻田,别有一番风味。 PS:ratu spa是出发前就在代理那里定好了,代理已经帮我们预订了接送的时间。所以它会直接在酒店等我们。到了做spa那里,自己只需要选择一下精油就可以了。房间内部结构,古香古色的巴里岛风情。选精油的瓶子很可爱!spa结束后还可以在右上那幅图中的三角浴缸里泡花瓣浴+品尝姜茶! 9月4日晚1900左右,做完ratu spa后,我们在wayan咖啡馆享用了到达巴厘岛的第一顿晚餐。 按照攻略点了一份印尼综合饭,店家推荐了一份沙爹鸡肉串饭,两杯西瓜汁和一份网络大热的死神蛋糕(death cake with chocolate)。合计人民币120元。由于还是处于单反无电状态,所以只有用手机拍拍食物,没办法拍出用餐环境。这个餐厅很有乌布味道,小桥流水、植物茂密,各种凉亭设置在花草树木间,静谧和谐。 巴厘岛的所有果汁都是鲜榨的。你点完后甚至会听到榨果汁的声音,让你感觉特别原汁原味。我们去巴厘的时期已经错过了当地水果最好的时节(5月-8月),所以酷爱水果的我俩没能一饱口福,可选择面非常少,芒果已经下市了,基本只能选择西瓜、橙汁、柠檬汁、百香果、混合果汁……所以在巴厘的10天里,西瓜汁成为我俩的大爱!(无论是餐厅还是小店,果汁都是折合人民币15-20元左右一杯)餐桌上很巴厘岛风味的小摆件~~~印尼综合炒饭旁边的配菜很丰盛 味道也还不错哦沙爹肉串饭~~~ 这种沙爹肉串是我在巴厘岛期间相对来说比较喜欢的食物,有点烧烤味,偏甜 但这份饭性价比不如综合炒饭高呢,综合烧饭的配菜丰富很多

本人是火车迷,最喜欢西南的纯美自然风光。作品在铁路论坛类论坛发了不少,经一位老朋友介绍来到这里。希望大家都喜欢本人的作品其实美丽的风景并不一定只在各种旅游攻略书籍中,只要自己用心去寻找,西南处处有美景坐着西南的绿皮火车,慢慢的欣赏自然风光就是个不错的选择。 由于西南特殊地形的限制,这里的铁路线大多建于本世纪五、六十年代,线路蜿延前行,无数铁道兵战士为了修建祖国的钢铁大动脉,将自己的青春献给了这里,甚至付出了宝贵的生命。 虽然西南铁路路网稠密,但由于受到地理环境条件的限制。除新修的渝怀、新黔桂线之外,基本上都修建于本世纪五、六十年代。受资金、技术、设备所限。基本上都是单线铁路。经常需要穿越山脉、河流。只能依山蜿蜒前行。这种独特的景观是平原地区的线路所不具备的。 西南地区大致包括四川、重庆、贵州、云南、湘西等地。其中铁路风光最美丽的是成昆、(成都--昆明)川黔(重庆--贵阳)、内六(内江--六盘水) 渝怀(重庆北--怀化)、南昆(南宁--昆明)、贵昆、湘黔(株洲--贵阳)、水柏(六盘水--柏果)、焦柳线南段等线路。 此次出行线路: D1、郑州----昆明(南航航班) D2、昆明----石林(7452次列车硬座,游览石林车站周边) 石林----威舍(普通慢车硬座) D3、威舍----六盘水(6001次列车硬座) D4、六盘水----怀化(K110次列车硬座) D5、怀化----漾头(7272次列车硬座) 暴走漾头--九龙洞缓开站区间10公里,拦车去铜仁 铜仁----怀化(7271次列车硬座) D6、怀化----郑州(K268次列车硬座) D7、郑州----贵阳(1645次列车硬卧) D8、贵阳----重庆(绿皮列车硬卧) D9、重庆----白马(长途客车) 白马----涪陵----重庆(长途客车) 重庆----郑州(南航CZ3480航班)回复 伤心的宾宾 的帖子早早订下到昆明的1.8折特价机票 09年4月初的1天,出发前往新郑国际机场……驶上机场高速,旁边是京港澳高速河南的高速公路非常发达,通车里程全国第一郑州新郑国际机场……地处中原腹地省会郑州,位于我国最繁忙的京广航路的中部,又在沿海地区和西部地区结合部分,因此是我国重要的干线机场及空中交通枢纽。它位于郑州市东南方向,距郑州市区直线距离15公里,距新郑市区直线距离15公里。 于1997年8月28日通航的郑州新郑机场是按照国际化准设计的,场道布局合理,设施功能完善,机场飞行区等级为4E级,机场占地面积为25平方公里,跑道长3800米,宽65米,可满足目前世界上最大的b747---400型客机起降。停机坪面积87万平方米,可同时停放18架大型飞机。航行管制系统配备有全固态一/二次雷达,跑道双向仪表着陆系统,双向进近灯光系统,全向信台地空数据链及vhf四/八信道无线共用系统先进装备,保证飞机的正常飞行及夜航和盲降的要求远处还有焦作、晋城的大巴 郑州新郑机场相继开通了省内各省辖市,还有山西晋城的班车。头一次在新郑机场新航站楼乘机,挺新鲜我的航班CZ3439,14:50起飞BS此人,用自己扮演的伟人形象为产品代言中国南方航空公司的波音737--300小型客机, 它将搭载我飞进美丽的大西南 到昆明的航线一直是热门线路。今天的上座率达到了98%蓝天,白云朵朵……餐食不错 牛肉、鱼肉饭二选一,小面包、涪陵榨菜、圣水果、 还有餐巾纸、湿巾、牙。 为旅客想的很周到经过2小时18分钟的飞行,准备降落……昆明当天下雨,下车后坐上52路前往市区。 途中停车“双桥村”,显然是都市村庄。 这里肯定有物美价廉的旅馆,在此下车这里小旅馆,招待所很多。价格从10--50元不等 35元的小准间,还不错 还提供一次性洗漱用品条件还不错,35元挺值晒一下自己所带的物品 自认为该带的都带了,没想到一件非常重要的物品却忘到了家中…… 给我的行程带来了无尽的遗憾!当天晚上先去昆明站买票,这里离火车站不远 当时下雨,昆明站售票厅内买票的旅客很多,但只开了4个窗口 没有警察维持秩序,看得出其中有几个小偷 排队20分钟后买到次日的7452车票 昆明--红果次日早早起床,准备乘公交开往昆明站。 这里位于春城路,位于昆明巫家坝国际机场和火车站的正中间。 交通还是非常方便的31路公交车到了终点站……昆明站 却还要走500多米昆明站的建筑还是非常漂亮的昆明站,或者称南窑火车站 址在云南省昆明市官渡区官渡镇,北京路的南端.同时也是昆明市区的南部,可乘2、3、23、83、等公交车到达。邮政编码650200。建于1997年。离南宁站811公里,,隶属昆明铁路局管辖。现为特等站。客运:办理旅客乘降;行李、包裹托运。货运:办理整车货物发到;不办理整车爆炸品及整车一级氧化剂发这个雕像似乎更应该放在证券营业部…… 已经登上7452次列车…… 旁边是T61次的到达车底,还未回库 昆明站唯一跨局特快……车票…… 如果只为了到红果,完全可以坐8:08始发的6062次。此车途经贵昆,盘西线到达红果。全程261KM 而我所坐的7452将走南昆,经威舍上威红线到达红果。全程376KM 至于原因……只为了运转美丽的石林告别昆明站…… 开始自己的第一段旅程此时与贵昆线平行,一会儿才能驶上南昆线([]
回忆的开始 从狼C线和乌孙古道出来也有些日子了,每天都在翻看一路的相片,队友们的相片也在陆续传来。这次走狼C一路上上遇见了雨,雪,雾,大风更是常客,看着照片中我和朋友们那一张张皲裂的脸,都会不由自主地想起路上的一幕幕。天气多变,难度也相应增加了,本来计划狼C7天走出,最后走了8天加2小时。老天爷上调了难度,但却给了我们最好的回报:风景绝美。狼C线前后翻越5座雪达坂,每次精疲力尽登顶后极目远眺都能感觉到天不负我。无数的雪山在风起云涌中格外雄伟壮丽。 慢慢整理一下资料,陆续发布,给自己留点记忆,也给朋友们留点资料。8264上狼C的攻略很多了,我就不多献丑了。这次打算通过大量的照片来描述狼C的雄伟壮丽,狼C的美。不逊于任何一条线路的大美狼C. 从现在开始。。。。。。。。。。。。插入:感谢大家支持,俺就多花点时间,480楼开始改用长边2500像素的PP,看上去貌似要有气势很多,不说好不好看,至少大了很多。大片我把整个帖子的主要文字整理了一下,免得各位看的辛苦。 一,初入白杨沟 人马在乌市集合完毕,总计11好汉加一猛女,12员大将。队员是:管子乡村四月臭猫老李无极六戒老解大漠幻想真情一牛 透心凉(俺) 乌市,一大早我还没起床,牛哥就跑出去侦查了一路,回来后很肯定地告诉我:“去火车站旁边的八一车站坐车,我刚去了一趟,了解清楚了。” 佩服。。。。。。要知道来回要折腾一小时,老牛还真是勤快人啊。 12人整装集合出发八一车站,10:50坐车出发,12点20到达呼图壁车站,12点30到达狼塔户外。第一次看见大自在老哥,大自在很热情,好人啊。之前我们没有联系车,也没和大自在联系,临时找车很麻烦。老哥热心地到处打电话,帮我们联系了车辆,帮了大忙啊。另外说一句,从狼塔户外采买的高山气罐非常强大,一人带两个,出山之前我们还剩了一堆。 找好车辆,在旁边吃了一个超爽的手抓饭,1:50开拔进山。4点50到达出发点大油罐,上包,照集体照,出发。狼C之路开始了。 两小时之后到达一个台地,绝对五星级营地,真情一看,打死不走了,感觉要不让他扎营,估计今天晚上俺就别想好好吃饭了,没办法,就地扎营。吃饱喝足,生了堆篝火,兄弟们坐在一起天南地北开始吹牛,感觉像一家人。 二 穿行白杨沟 今天很不幸,湿身了,登山鞋全湿了,在海拔3000米以上的营地这可是大麻烦,明天要过白杨沟达坂,内心有点郁闷。。。。。。 今天的预计营地是白杨沟达坂下的小冰湖,走到跟前,发现雪线向下延伸了很多,小冰湖营地全是雪。只好在离小冰湖2公里左右的一处台地扎营了。 今天算是真正见识了大美天山的绚丽风光。笔直的云杉无论独立还是成林,在金色晨光的照耀下都是那样独特的美丽风景。宽阔的河谷,连绵的高山草甸,起伏的雪山,一切都是那样为之赞叹,为之倾倒。虽然出了点小插曲,但总的看来还是让人相当愉悦的旅程。 今天早上9点20出发,中午休息晒太阳一小时,晚上17点20扎营。营地很冷,吃饱喝足进帐休息,我在外帐用炉头烤鞋子,折腾了一个多小时,基本烤干 。 明天计划8点30出发,冲击白杨沟达坂,据今天碰见的牧民说:雪深20公分以上。。。。。。。。。。。。 三 翻越白杨沟达坂 早上出发,1小时多后到达小冰湖,开始冲锋达坂。 我发现:被忽悠了,雪深及膝,马道被盖住。只能利用GPS和地图来判断了,找好线路,啥也不说,埋头走吧。 边走边观赏风景,上了第一个台地,眼前忽然开阔,大美。于是休息,众人开始作秀照相。看到大家都活蹦乱跳,我突发奇想,对一众强人说:站成一排,摆POSS。于是同学们开始站成一排,又蹦又跳,我一边偷笑一边顺手卡卡。连续的POSS后,看见一个个面红耳赤即将高反的众人,我说道:“很好,很不错。”内心狂笑中,哈哈哈哈。 走走停停,连续上攻了5小时到顶。很累,很疲倦。 不过风景确实对得起付出的辛苦,天公作美,天气极好。登顶远眺河源峰的一刻,疲劳随风而去,俺又活力充沛了。 今天8点50营地出发,10点半左右开始冲击达坂,下午3点20登顶,3点50下撤。由于体能消耗的问,下撤很慢。估计天黑前无法到达河滩营地了。于是在马鞍营地前行40分钟左右的一个临时营地扎营。 洗刷刷,吃点面条,进帐睡觉恢复体力。 四 反复涉水 8点50从营地出发,全天涉水,本来计划过栈道到三角洲营地。由于今天水流很大,多次过河消耗体能很多。加之真情他们由于老虎口有小塌方走了回头路,耽误了一个多小时。下午6点多才到栈道口附近,考虑到安全问,决定今天放弃走栈道,找地扎营。今天比计划的行程慢了2小时。晚上生起一堆篝火,烤了半天总算驱走了身上的湿气和寒气。和一众兄弟一边吃肉一边喝着小酒,感觉很滋润。整了大概四两,感觉身上暖洋洋得很是舒服,哼着小曲进帐睡觉。所哼曲目:鸿雁。 五走过空中栈道 今天的计划是穿过空中栈道,翻越库达坂,一大早起来洗刷刷,吃饱喝足,继续走路。 走啊走啊,走上了空中栈道,风景不错,就是不大敢看,只敢看路,不小心滑了一跤,我趴那动都不敢动,心里只念叨:诸天神佛,饶我一次吧,下次走路俺不唱歌还不成吗。整了几分钟才重新站好,稳住重心。再过了几分钟,又开始哼着小曲走路,不过确实不好走,很多地方都是在斜坡上被人或者山羊踩出的一脚宽的痕迹(个人觉得很多地方不能定义为路),下面就是悬崖。相片照的很少,俺怕相机牺牲,更怕自己牺牲。 提心吊胆两小时,算是走完了空中栈道。前方就是原计划昨天的营地:三角洲营地。 三角洲附近的山坡上有很多五颜六色的红果果树(由于树上结红色果很多,我们就顺口这样称呼了),很漂亮,我们一路走去,边看边照,走了良久,突然有兄弟反应过来。不对,上库达坂沟口就在三角洲旁边,没这么远。于是方才从美景中清醒过来,回头。找到了沟口,志性小树。老天开眼,下起了大雨,啥也别说,扎营吧,雨中上达坂可不好玩。于是有了我狼C的第一个午觉,睡的相当愉快,心里不由念叨:想走就走,想停就停,这才叫旅行,这才叫徒步,这才叫享受,连老天爷都照顾我们。 今天很轻松,全天才走了三小时,睡完午觉起来喝喝下午茶,到处拍拍照,尽享旅行乐趣。 六翻越库达坂 一大早起来,抬头看天,蓝天白云,绝对好天气。今天的行程是翻越库达坂,沿呼图壁河谷上行至牧民营。 库达坂在去年的同期是无雪的,但今天上升时发现最后的地方雪深及膝,大部分到脚踝处。好在上午风不大,疯狂上冲。我由于没带墨镜,走雪地眼睛会很难受,所以基本是眯着眼睛载头猛走。4小时到顶,稍作休整,开始了漫长的下降。 下山的路有几段是由拳头大的碎石组成的滑石地段。采用重心靠后,脚跟先落地的原则,开始冲锋。半溜半跑地迅速下降,让人很有一种坐电梯的感觉,相当爽。唯一需要注意的是要掌握好平衡,不然就变成连滚带爬地下降了。 中途碰见了几个赶着羊群的哈萨克牧民,老解开始看着羊群发呆,估计是饿了。我仿佛看见老解的头上出现了一个巨大的框。里面飘过一只只烤全羊。。。。。。。 下午3点左右,下到了呼图壁河边,一路逆流而上,趟河无数。丰富的秋之色彩随处可见。金黄,酒红,浅红,淡黄,美丽到极致。 一路走来一路看,晚上7点多,走到了牧民营旁的计划营地,安营扎寨。 晚上,星空明亮,起来嘘嘘,发现风很大,巨冷,飞速完工后进帐,缩入睡袋。在牛哥悠扬的鼾声中,安然入睡。 七翻越蒙达坂,喀达坂 又是一个早晨,天气不太好,很重的云雾,看来不是个好天气。今天的行程是翻越蒙达坂和喀达坂,然后下到谷底,走到两河口的牧民营地。 事实证明天气确实很糟,翻越蒙达坂的时候下起了大雪,大风则是陪伴我们全天。蒙达坂积雪基本在膝盖到大腿的未知,步步维艰。雪很厚,看不见一点前人走过的痕迹,经过反复探路,我们最后从蒙达坂冰舌直切而上的时候,感觉那叫一个遥远,风雪中又看不清前方,唯一能做的就是傻走。 冲上蒙达坂,横切三小时,小幅度地下降上升之后就到达喀达坂。 喀达坂的积雪到小腿,还算好。走过喀达坂的时候,有段时间大风吹出了一块蓝天,当时的风景格外壮丽。众兄弟抢着POSS拍照。由于大漠要拍裸照,是最后一个。当这哥们三两下拔下自己的衣服后,估计是不被老天爷欣赏,一阵雾气吹来,结果照片拍下来一个强壮的裸男和一个玛尼堆。 今天出了一个笑话:横切去喀达坂的时候,幻想同志本来在我前面,我一路狂追,始终不见身影,快上喀达坂的时候突然看见在海拔下降80-100米处,看见一个小人在移动,很是惊诧,再一看,是幻想,倒,我们是横切,这哥们怎么跑下去了。后来聊天才知道:这哥们等高线设置80米一根,以为20米一根,跟着GPS轨迹傻走,看上去走的路线是重叠的,其实差之毫厘谬以千里。我在想:要是这哥们整了张5000比1的图看,会不会直切到西藏去了 lol 过了喀达坂,为了尽早赶到营地,大家都在快速前行。我一个人在后面边走边拍照,磨磨蹭蹭一直到9点多才最后抵达营地。不过一路拍了不少照片,也算值得了 。 八 行走在高原牧场 早晨起来,很冷,但天气很好,温度表显示的室外温度-8.1,估计夜晚的温度在-10往下,水袋和套锅里面全是冰。 狼C最艰难的行程已经结束了,剩下两天的路程很好走。今天的行程基本是在高原牧场欣赏风景。涉水一次,过一个小达坂,就到金矿,然后就是一路顺着峡谷欣赏草场了。 河水是从金矿方向留出来的,很浑浊,和泥汤一样。换鞋趟过去,剩下的就全是干路了。行走在高山牧场的台地上,偶尔会走过河滩。金黄的草场绵延无边,让人心旷神怡。天气很好,一整天都是大太阳,我跨着愉快的小步子,边走边欣赏风景,旅途中还小睡了半个小时,晚上6点到达哈尔哈特达坂脚下的牧民房。两间房,一间睡六个,大家都睡大通铺。 房子周围有很多牛粪,真情开始计划用牛粪生火,结果发现在没有炉子导走烟的情况下,那就是杀人。看着一双双熏得通红的眼睛,最后还是决定继续用先进武器气炉生火做饭。 晚餐:土豆烧大肉,莴笋干菜汤,那叫一个腐败。今夜有房睡,明天能出山了。想着都开心。吃饱后,钻出帐篷随手拍了两张雪山月色。 回到铺上,身心都很满足的安然睡去。 九走出狼C线,踏上新旅程 清早起床,太阳还没爬上山头,远处的雪山显得格外宁静。过了一会太阳出来了,照耀山巅,一道金色铺满了山脊。 吃完早饭,9点了,阳光明媚,大家在小木屋附近合影留念。今天冲过哈达坂顺着机耕路一路向下,预计下午4点前就可以到达交叉路口附近的桥,那就是我们这次徒步的终点,可以拦车了。想着今天可以重回人间,大家心情都很好,拍张集体照作为见证。合照完毕,继续踏上我们在狼C线最后的行程飞速冲上了哈达坂,也是狼C线路中的最后一个达坂。稍作休整,欣赏风景,可以看见山下的机耕路蜿蜒通向峡谷外,我们马上就要出去了,心情有一点激动,也有点失落。怀着激动的心情,150M左右的高差,10分钟就从碎石坡冲下去了。下到机耕路,众人到齐,再次合影,也是我们穿越狼C的最后一次合影,剩下的只是傻走了,穿越基本算是结束了。快到交叉口处,看见地质队的营地,看见了一台皮卡。回到人间。地质队养了两条狗,一黑一白,冲着我们乱叫。狗很不懂礼貌,地质队的诸位师傅却是好人。地质队的一位师傅看见我们这群野人,似乎很清楚我们需要什么,直接洗了一盆苹果端了出来,我刚拿出相机照了张相片,苹果就只剩下一个了。 休整片刻后,地质队的一位大哥用那台白色的小皮卡分三次把我们送到了218国道。一路飞驰,极目望去,连绵雪山,蓝天白云。8天半的行程结束了。一路上兄弟们同甘共苦,爬山涉水,见证了狼C的大美。我和臭猫接下来的行程是去伊宁休整,27号出发去乌孙。其他的兄弟的安排是包车回乌市。大家要分开了,带着不舍,带着对下一次相聚的期盼,我和臭猫走上218国道,踏上了下一段旅程。。。。。。。。。 简单列一下行程: 16号:乌市出发,12点30到达狼塔户外。1:50包车进山(感谢大自在老哥的热心帮助),5点到达出发点大油罐,两小时到达一个台地,五星级营地。考虑到第二天运动量不大,就地扎营。 17号:目小冰湖营地。到后发现由于降雪,雪线下移很多,只好在小冰湖前约2公里的一处台地扎营了。 18号:翻越白杨沟达坂,雪深及膝。体能消耗大,7点到达马鞍营地,前行40分钟左右,在谷底旁的一块空地扎营。 19号:全天涉水,(老虎嘴部分再次出现局部塌方不能通行),下午6点到达栈道口附近,由于担心失温影响体力,考虑到安全,决定扎营,比计划行程晚了两个小时。 20号:走完空中栈道,在库达坂沟口遇见大雨,今日行程早早结束,下午睡觉,那叫一个愉悦。21号:翻越库达坂,沿着河谷逆行到达牧民营地。库达坂雪深达到小腿中部。22号:风雪交加中翻越蒙达坂(雪深膝-大腿),俺的小脸算彻底毁了。翻第二座达坂时候天气不错(雪深小腿-膝盖),起了一阵大雾。今日走到计划的牧民营地。全天12小时,累惨了。晚上很冷,零下10度。装水的全结冰。23号:没选择走河谷,趟河一次后,翻越一个小达坂到达机耕路,顺路至金矿,沿峡谷向哈达坂前进,一路看景,晚6点至两座牧民房,扎营,一间六个,腐败吃饭,很爽地睡觉。24号:斗志昂扬地冲过哈达坂(雪深小腿-膝盖),高速下降200米,上机耕路,下午4点到达地质队营地,重回人间。队员由左至右: 管子 乡村四月臭猫老李无极 六戒 老解大漠幻想 真情一牛 透心凉 初见白杨沟,开始磨蹄,计划了一年的狼C总算踏出了第一步,怀着哈皮的心情和兄弟们踏上了狼C之路 牛哥的背影和他的人一样沉稳(备注:一牛为本队最年长队员,51)一个小下坡,狼C之路的上下坡正式开始路边上的一堆残骸 第一座木桥 浮土路,有点滑。大漠的第一次爬行,还是牛哥走的稳啊云杉,仿佛一把把出鞘之剑指向苍天第一天的五星级营地烤火吹牛,加强团队感情,顺便把新装备燎几个洞来证明资历收营,又要出发了哼着小曲,在阳光中前行缕缕阳光拂过,俺的小宇宙开始沸腾,浑身充满力量自拍一张二牛在自由地吃草,问是咋在路上吃,不进牧场去吃,疑惑高原牧场枯败的灌木在秋日的晨光中也能让人感到那一丝不屈和生机阳光带来了生机,带来了美远处的草料堆六戒和管子,这时候还能算是小白脸([]
这是去年的事儿,算起来,去年的今天正是出发的日子,已经一年了。 游记写完了加起来一算,竟有13万多字,想了想,还是在这儿交个作业,如一位朋友所说,“唯有记录下旅途上的点滴,才能不辜负那些路上的人和事。”也算是借8264,对曾经在路上给予过帮助的人致以谢意,路上遇到的朋友说不定也会看到这篇作业,问所有人好。 文笔不好,流水账,拍照技术有限,仅为记录,选了两千张图片一起交上来,因为工作比较忙,只能空闲时间慢慢更新,不知道什么时候完结,但肯定不会太监。 先谢过所有来捧场的朋友,如果您能坚持看完,就是对我最大的鼓励了。 路上卡片机随手录的一些片段,回来简单做的视频。 《搭车去尼泊尔》目录: 搭车去尼泊尔 之 前言简介、行程概览、费用统计、装备情况等 一、启程,南昌→昆明 二、单车逛昆明

后记:愿在路上,不问天涯 搭车去尼泊尔 之 前言简介、行程概览、费用统计、装备情况等 有些朋友可能想问:为什么要选择搭车和徒步,选择走滇藏线和中尼线?出行多少天,多少公里,花费多少?大致行程是怎么样的?带了哪些装备?工作后怎么会有这么长的假期?等等问,所以先将这些情况做个简要说明。 为什么选择搭车滇藏线和中尼线去尼泊尔? 08年夏天,大学毕业后,我从武汉来到南昌,开始了人生第一份工作,至今已有三年。 08年底,我的一个朋友,肯,跟我一个单位的,到云南昆明工作去了。之后一直没机会见面。 09年夏天,在南昌,我的一个兄弟,也是老乡,马达,大学毕业后进藏藏漂,工作地点在樟木,就是那个喜马拉雅山脚下、中尼边境口岸的小镇。他离开南昌时我们喝酒,我说,如果有一天我能骑单车去西藏,就去看你。 10年夏天,我请探亲假,骑车到了拉萨,但无奈假期有限,即将结束,没能去樟木找马达,在拉萨呆了三天返回。 10年初,旅游卫视有一部很火的节目,叫《搭车去柏林》,我相信这部真人纪录片影响了国内很大一批年轻人和背包客,我承认,我也是在看了此片之后,萌生什么时候能搭车走一次长途的想法的,无他,纯粹只为想换个在路上的方式体验下。 06年,在网上被一篇徒步墨脱的帖子打动,知道了墨脱这个地方,开始有了想去徒步的想法。 11年6月,一个偶然的机会,我换了工作,将离开南昌,去沿海的另一座城市。在去新单位正式报到之前有点时间,便想趁这个间隙走这一趟长途,于是7月中旬将南昌的工作交接完毕。 之前我没有去过云南,也没有出过境。所以决定这次选择搭车走滇藏线和中尼线。 于是,在一切准备妥当之后,2011年7月21日,就这样出发了。 行程简介 这次出行,前后共计53天。 因为出发前并不能确定时间长短,所以没做太多计划,比较随意,基本属于边走边看情况。按照大致设想,先坐火车到昆明,然后从昆明出发,边搭车边徒步,沿滇藏线、中尼线至尼泊尔,游玩途中某些点,或者选择去徒步。 出行方式为一个人,重装。至于路上是否捡到伴或者被捡,随缘,走几天是几天;是否露营,看具体情况和心情。 大致路线:南昌→昆明→大理→丽江→泸沽湖→虎跳峡→香格里拉→德钦飞来寺→雨崩→芒康→波密→墨脱→林芝八一→拉萨→羊湖→江孜→日喀则→珠峰大本营→樟木→尼泊尔加德满都→奇达旺→博卡拉→加德满都→樟木→拉萨→武昌→南昌,总行程约12000公里,包括火车、汽车,搭车以及徒步等方式。实际搭顺风车路段为昆明→拉萨→樟木,共搭顺风车33次,行程约3000公里,从拖拉机、摩托车到奥迪、陆巡都有过。途中徒步里程约为650公里。总的来说,大部分前进的里程是靠搭车完成,但大部分的时间是在走路。路线图 花费统计 作为一个自助游的驴子,原则就是当花钱则花钱,不值得花的就省掉,不大手大脚、不铺张、不浪费,我相信,穷游也可以玩得很好,玩得很开心。(其实穷游意味着你可以用省下的钱走更远的路。) 这次出行全部费用总计约5500元人民币。主要分为以下几个部分: 一、出行交通类: 南昌→昆明,火车硬座,107 大理→丽江,小车,50(本来上车之前说好是搭车,但到丽江之后司机说让给点油费)

泸沽湖 100 虎跳峡 50(张老师小道10,拍照5) 香格里拉普达措国家森林公园 190 梅里雪山雨崩景区 80 扎什伦布寺 55 珠峰国家级自然保护区 180 三、住宿类: 总共46晚(不包括尼泊尔6晚),17个晚上没有花钱(7晚搭帐篷,3晚火车,1晚货车,4晚跟朋友混,2晚借地儿打地铺),住宿共29晚,住宿费约750元。 四、尼泊尔花费: 2011.9.1-7七天,在尼泊尔境内所有交通、食宿、购物、门票,1500元。(出关前换了1500人民币,回樟木后剩下的卢比还换回了50元) 五、剩下的费用就是平时吃饭、补给、购物以及其他花销了,约1200元。 行程概览 D1-D2/2011.7.21-22 火车,南昌→昆明,31个小时。投奔老友肯,混在其单位宿舍。 D3/2011.7.23 单车,骑游昆明。 D4/2011.7.24

备注:因为包的容量有限,也考虑到背负后的重量,后来就没有带移动硬盘、溯溪鞋、望远镜等一些物品。打包后也没有刻意去称重,估计所有东西加在一起约25KG,路上有时还会补给干粮和水。当然带了的东西也并不都是全部用上了,有些东西确实无形之中给后来的徒步增加了负重,很痛苦,但具体情况不一样,自另当别论。 出发前的全部家当了搭车去尼泊尔(一):启程,南昌→昆明 D1-D2/2011.7.21-22 这是南昌的七月,夏天最为火辣的时候。阳光像针一般,刺在皮肤上,空气闷热而干燥,知了在樟树叶子下有气无力地呻吟。即便坐在屋里一动不动,汗水都可以沿着脊背涔涔而下。 我背着硕大的登山包,走下楼去,桑送我到公交车站。因为将离开南昌,半个月前,我就退掉了在市区租的房子,混在朋友的租房里,连同所有的行李,七八个大包裹外加一辆自行车,搬过去的时候整个儿就一搬迁户。 2路车,哐啷哐啷,驶向火车站。公交电视上全是姚晨的大嘴广告,“赶集了!”,放了N+1遍,更添聒噪。身上早已被汗水浸透。 进了火车站候车室,人群密密麻麻。我排在队伍的最后面,去昆明的车还有不到一个小时发车。 突然手机响起来了,一看是朝阳姐!她说,她和兔子、云飞扬姐,还有小黑要来火车站给我送行,问我在哪儿,我告诉了她位置。穿过拥挤的人群,我翘首寻找,终于看见兔子穿着橘红色的前进队服,在人群里大声叫着“盼盼!盼盼!”大家的突然现身送行,是我没有料到的,很感动。 短暂的话别之后,带着飞扬姐送来的水果,还有大家的叮嘱和祝福,踏上了火车。 到昆明的这一趟车是一节绿皮慢车,人们被封闭在车厢里,就像附赠了免费桑拿,浑身的汗水如黄河滚滚而下。对面的一位大姐中暑了,另一位大婶在跟她掐人中。 已记不清流了多少次汗,T恤一会儿干,一会儿湿,身上黏糊糊的,像在岸上打滚的泥鳅。过道上站了不少人,很拥挤,跋山涉水走了5个车厢,没有热水,泡面也懒得吃了。到夕阳西下的时候,温度才渐渐降下来。 夜深了,车厢里的旅客们大多已经倚斜着头睡着。我完全没有睡意,望着窗外发呆,晚风一阵接一阵灌进来,凉快透了。心里突然有一点小迷茫,为这未知的行程。 列车不紧不慢地驶着,到第二天早上才出湖南,进入贵州。进入贵州之后,山区渐多,天气终于不那么炎热了。火车穿过一个又一个漆黑漫长的隧道,看见黔东南的一片秀丽山水,一路是连绵起伏的山,山谷内间或有三两人家,屋舍虽陋小,却俨然有致,屋前阡陌曲折,鸡犬相戏,稻田泛青。 坐着或站在我周围的,是一群从江西前往云南的打工者。他们,一行十人,来自赣州石城,听同乡说在西双版纳有事做,于是集体前往那边打工,全部站票,南昌到昆明仅这一趟绿皮车,三十多个小时,他们说,这车是给没钱人坐的,好车都不往西开。他,来自新余,自言二十岁出来就到昆明打工,基本上一直生活在那里,上个月他还回了趟老家,家中还有两个念书的娃。他和他,都是江西老表,他在北京、唐山等地的工地上呆过,这次要去西双版纳,他一个表妹的老公说可去那边做缅甸的玉石生意,他也是来自工地上,呆过四川、青海等地,这次他准备到昆明谋事,俩人相谈甚欢,互通名姓,居然是同姓本家,于是互留手机号,于是这老乡在异地就有了纽带。我喜欢在火车上默默听这些人的经历和故事,这样会更了解中国,不管他们将去何方,祝愿他们都有一个好的明天。 在路上列车停下来的时候,山区里,会有一群小孩子追着列车卖山梨,梨很小,一块钱两枚,但买的乘客不少,因为这趟列车时间太长,还没有热水。卖梨的孩子在铁道上随着旅客的呼声来回奔跑,扒在车窗上,双手捧上梨,接过乘客手里的硬币,不一会儿就卖完了两篮,累得满头大汗,但脸上挂满笑容。真希望他每天的生意都这样好。 进入云南已是第二个黄昏过后。第二天晚上十点多,历经三十一个小时后,火车抵达昆明。老友肯早已和他女朋友在火车站等候我多时了。打的到白马东区,住在肯单位的宿舍。肯曾和我一同进入南昌的单位,但几个月后转奔昆明,好几年未见。他长我八岁,在南昌时我们曾住隔壁,经常一起做饭、打桌球。听说他不日即将大婚,房子隔年也将交付,真替他高兴,真心祝福他们幸福。 是晚太累,好好洗了个澡,粘床便睡着了。我在人群拥挤的火车站,排在队伍后面,等待着开往昆明的火车。在火车上拍的,初见云贵高原。在火车上拍的,铁路下面就是河流与峡谷,火车在崇山峻岭间行驶,穿过了一个又一个隧道。路上列车停下来的时候,就会有这样的小孩子追着列车卖山梨,梨很小,一块钱两枚。卖梨的孩子在铁道上随着旅客的呼声来回奔跑,扒在车窗上,双手捧上梨,接过乘客手里的硬币,不一会儿就卖完了两篮,累得满头大汗,但脸上挂满笑容。火车上,第二个黄昏时的夕阳,将远处的山峦笼罩在金色的余晖中。 搭车去尼泊尔(二):单车逛昆明 D3/2011.7.23 早上醒来,肯加班去了,我骑了他的山地车出门,一个人逛昆明。 相对于内地的夏天来说,春城温度并不高,但阳光很晒,紫外线比较强,如果不穿长袖、不戴遮阳帽,一会儿就会觉察到胳膊、脸上热辣辣的。 先计划骑车去爬西山。在市区内辨路时,正好遇到一伙昆明的车友骑车出游,一看见车友,我就感到很亲切,追上去问他们去哪儿,他们说去易门,一天往返,一百来公里,还有后援车,在得知我也是外地过来的车友后,还热情地邀我跟他们一起同去,我是非常想去,但时间有限,遗憾不能同行。问他们去西山的路怎么走,他们告诉我会经过山脚下,让我跟着队伍,于是跟着昆明车友的队伍,骑行至西山脚下,然后告别。 虽然西山最高峰罗汉峰的海拔有2511米,但因为昆明本身地处高原,海拔比较高,所以西山的相对海拔并不是很高,只有几百米,骑车爬起坡来难度并不大,二三十分钟就可上去,一路有很多车友来此锻炼,或正爬坡,或正疾驰下山,再加上徒步的游客,山路上显得很热闹。昆明西山,华亭禅寺这里长眠着一个年仅24岁的年轻音乐家——聂耳,中华人民共和国国歌的作曲者。骑上西山后,在山顶俯瞰滇池,蓝天白云下,滇池漫无边际,一碧如海。滇池的水非常绿,因为滇池属富营型湖泊,部分水域呈异常营养征兆,水色暗黄绿,内湖有机污染严重,导致湖水绿森森的像油漆一样,走在湖边还能闻到死去鱼虾的腐臭。政府为治理滇池污染,连续投入已超过40亿元,但收效甚微,目前仍呈重度污染状态。快艇疾驶过滇池昆明徐霞客纪念馆、昆明杨升庵纪念馆。徐霞客是中国户外界历史上公认的大侠,杨升庵是明代三大才子之一、正德六年状元。碧树掩映下的升庵祠升庵祠前的睡莲已悄然绽放碧峣精舍。杨慎(升庵)曾经讲学的地方。午后的巷子内,光影斑驳。滑过滇池上空的缆车滇池附近的湿地公园,生态环境很好船房河。船房河岸的午后很静谧,茂盛的湿地、水鸟、鲜花,浓密的树阴下,有人乘凉,有人垂钓,有人看书,有人野营聚餐打扑克,有人在吊床里享受甜蜜的梦境。西华园,午后,休闲的人们,更像是一个亲子乐园,来回奔跑玩耍的孩子们。西华园内,放风筝的小女孩西南联大旧址,在今云南师范大学校内国立西南联大原教室,看样子应该是在遗址基础上整修或重建的。夕阳余晖下,让人对那个大师辈出的年代,神往不已。闻一多先生衣冠冢西南联大纪念碑翠湖公园的荷塘 这一天骑着车在昆明市区内逛了十来个小时,一直到晚上八点才回到肯的宿舍。我告诉肯,明天就打算离开昆明,往西走,开始真正的搭车和徒步旅行。晚上,两人好好腐败了下,喝了点啤酒。 出发前,我心里并不是很有谱,因为我从来没有搭过顺风车,不知道具体该如何去操作,上网查了一下出市区的路线,弄清楚怎么坐公交出城,决定到城外再去找机会,又查了下云南各地车牌号的字母代号,大致知道了走滇藏大致要搭往什么方向去的车。 只能跟自己说,祝我好运。然后睡觉。 未完待续搭车去尼泊尔(三):第一次搭车的艰辛,大理古城,洱海露营 D4/2011.7.24 今日行程:昆明→大理,搭车2次,里程300公里。徒步约7个小时,徒步里程30公里。 离开昆明的这一天我起得很早,5:40,按计划今天要搭车到大理。收拾好包,和肯告别之后,6:50离开了他住的宿舍。我走在大街上,径直向最近的公交车站。先乘公交到了明波家具城,下了车,下车之后的我一时有点茫然,周围是高架桥,众多过往的车辆,清晨的环卫工人在打扫马路,空气中弥漫着灰尘。 “嘿,伙计,现在没公交车了,轮到你搭车了,赶紧的啊!”我仿佛听到自己在心里跟自己这样说。可是我不知道该怎样去搭,我从没搭过顺风车,该怎样把车拦下来,并说服人家免费搭我呢?我的心跳咚咚加快,手足无措,接下来该……?现在回想起来,当时的紧张确实有点搞笑,但对于一个没有尝试过搭车的人,心里完全没谱,第一次的心理活动就是如此。 我在心里转过了很多个想法,该怎么拦,拦下来怎么去说,要是别人不搭我该怎么办,等等诸如此类的情况,但想得越多反而越紧张。我想起《搭车去柏林》里的拦车的姿势,矜持地举起了右手,朝上竖起了大拇指。 但不得不说,非常没底气,举手的姿势很不理直气壮,而且脸也不敢往后多看。这么多过往的车,我总觉得我的姿势很别扭,于是伸着手臂,埋头往前走,侥幸地希冀着有车能停下来。 显然,这样是没效果的,因为首先,这是在市区高架桥下面,这么多车没人会突然停下来,搞不好后面的车就追尾了;第二,我埋头朝前走,别人连我的脸都没看清,怎么可能停车;第三,也许这些车根本就不去大理,只是在市区近郊活动。 我就这样走着,沿着马路走了四十分钟,走过了高架桥,到了高速和国道的分岔路口。一路很多车经过,但这么久了根本没人鸟我,伸着手在路边半天别人看都不看,让我有点小受伤。我在岔路口徘徊着,到底是沿国道继续走呢,还是在高速路口继续等呢?如果走国道得走到什么时候,在路口等好像这里也不方便停车……纠结死我了。这时,一伙山东大学的自行车队,沿着国道320方向,穿着统一的T恤,打着旗子从我身边过去了,经过我身边的时候见我背个大包站在路边,还冲我喊加油,哎哟,小振奋,于是决定:沿着国道走! 边走边拦,依旧没车睬我。突然有个面包车在前面停下来了,我的心跳在加速,感觉血脉贲张,赶紧跑上去。开车的是个女司机,大姑娘问我,到哪里,我说去大理,她说不到大理,我说到前面下也行,她问我出多少钱,我叽里咕噜地说了一大通,表明自己是个旅行者,准备徒步和搭车去尼泊尔的,想搭免费车等等,那姑娘尴尬地一笑,摇上车窗,开走了。我站在原地还没反应过来,感觉有点懵,回味这笑是什么意思,意识到自己像个SB,心想,说那么多干嘛,不就是蹭车搭吗,可又一想,说得具体点,这不显得我真诚嘛!得,得,没人搭,走路吧。 走了一段,天开始下雨,套上防雨罩,撑开伞继续走。后来雨停了。爬上一个大坡,已经离市区很远了,有点累,把包扔在地上,站在路边等。依旧没有车停下来。后来,一辆面包车停下来了,隔着窗问我出多少钱,可想而知,我说想搭车后又开走了。 我有点沮丧,开始怀疑,是不是我的搭车方式有问,还是,车根本就不是这么搭的?想不明白。 功夫不负有心人,大约九点半,终于又停下来一辆面包车。司机本来想跟我谈价钱,但听了我的讲述后,告诉我去大理不应该走国道,而应去高速收费站等。往前面一公里就是去高速的路口,可以载我过去。我兴奋极了,菩萨诶,终于开张了!搭一公里也是搭啊,赶紧把包丢上车。 搭我的司机是彭大哥和另一位大哥。不一会儿到了路口,下车跟他们说再见。然后沿着土路走了一段,绕到杭瑞高速/G56上,又往前走了一段,到达昆明西收费站。 站在高速路边,我心里充满期待,这里有无数辆车经过,我以为机会大大的有,马上就可以走人,结果再一次失望了。每秒钟都有好几辆车过去,但没有车停下来问津。阳光暴晒,我在路边伸着手臂,手臂都快举断了。转眼四十分钟过去了,我又开始怀疑是不是我的方式有问,于是跟眼镜牛(当时他在搭车国境线)发信息,说怎么拦车都没车停下来,咋办,眼镜牛说最好上去问,多谈谈。我想这里不是加油站,不太方便交谈,然后我又想了想,是不是司机不知道我这姿势是想搭顺风车啊?还是不知道我要去哪里就不停?于是,我掏出日记本和笔,写了两个大大的字,“大理”,平举在胸前。虽然我感觉还是有点怪,但总算表明自己的意图了。 但这块牌子也并没有让我立刻搭上车,眼看着眼前一辆辆车经过,有的司机还瞅我的牌子望了一眼,但就是没停下来。一开始我有点焦急,像热锅上的蚂蚁,毫无头绪,手臂平举着久了也酸痛不已,后来慢慢淡定下来,安慰自己,也许是缘分没到吧。 在昆明西高速收费站,在那尴尬地等车的一个小时里,我看着眼前经过的成百上千辆车,却没有属于我的缘分,直到欧大哥和黄女士的车在我旁边停下来,问我去哪里,我说去大理,他们说上车吧,那一刻,我突然有点感动,一下子参悟了搭车的真谛,“从现在开始,我开始相信缘分,有些人就是在特定场合特定时刻来让我遇见的。” 欧大哥是一名律师,黄女士是他女朋友,在法院工作,小俩口要从昆明去德宏接一件案子,会路过大理下关,于是载上了我。聊天中,他们得知了我的旅行计划,很感兴趣,不时问我一些关于西藏的问,欧大哥说还没去过西藏,想什么时候自驾带上女朋友去玩一趟。车厢里响起BEYOND的《海阔天空》,我说,我也挺喜欢这歌的,欧大哥会心一笑。 我坐在后座上,欣赏着窗外的景色,一路蓝天白云,绿色的田野和山峦,风自由地吹着,心情像天气一样好。三百公里的路程结束了,下午两点,大理下关,我下了车,告别欧大哥和黄女士,目送他们的车去德宏。谢谢你们。 在下关吃过午饭,准备坐车去大理古城,一开始走错路,问路,转车,终于到达大理古城,下午暴走大理城中各处。大理是座很漂亮的古城,但也有大多热门旅游景区的通病,人太多。 快天黑时,我准备去洱海边扎营,开始往洱海方向走。在大理城内眺望洱海,似乎很近,以为很快就能走到,但走起来才发现错了。一个多小时后,天已经黑了,我在一片水稻田中间的土路上,连洱海的影子都还没见着。白天本已负重走了一天,此时早已心力俱疲,浑身酸痛,进也不是,退也不是,人都快疯掉。错误地轻信了高原上的视觉距离,看山走死马啊。硬着头皮往前走,后来到一个叫小邑庄的村子,跟两个小孩子问路,确认没走错路。进一条窄巷,穿过村子,终于到达洱海边上。 洱海边有几个小孩子在洗澡,我选好扎营地址,几个小孩子好奇地围过来,七手八脚地帮我搭帐篷。搭好帐篷,坐在湖边发呆,过来几个散步的游客,成都的一家三口,天南海北地聊了一会天。后来村子的村长经过,也聊了一会,他说他承包了洱海的一个片区,负责清理垃圾,政府每月补助800块钱。他走的时候反复叮嘱我好几次,一定要注意安全,这里的治安并不是特别好,我点头答应。 帐篷搭在伸向湖的一条石头路上,洱海边就我一个人,有水鼓荡的声音,鱼跳动的声音,还有远处的狗吠,蒲草间的虫鸣。晚风轻轻吹着,我坐在海边的石阶上,对岸有灯火,天上有漫天星斗,除此之外,一切静极了。 那个晚上,上半夜洱海边的风特别大,由于是石头路,没法打地钉,我的帐篷晃来晃去呼啦啦直响,明显地感到被风压向了一边。挂在帐篷上的手电光也是飘摇不定,好像风雨夕的烛火。我睡在帐篷里,感觉很揪心,担心我的帐篷杆被刮断,或者外帐被风掀走,那就是个十足的杯具啊。其实晚上那个村长过来和我聊天的时候就说,晚上这里风很大,我说我一百多斤的重量压在帐篷里还能把我帐篷吹走?是的,的确是吹不走,但是风可以把我的帐篷当气球玩,一会大一会小,还玩得挺带劲。风,你能不能不要这么调皮地玩我的帐篷?我只祈祷今晚不要下雨,否则明天就会在洱海中游泳的梦境中醒来…… 结果,后半夜风就悄悄遁了去,一夜无梦到天亮。(手机照)我搭的第一辆车,司机师傅是彭大哥和另外一位不知名的大哥。在昆明城外的320国道上,从某坡顶搭我到去高速的路口,虽然只有一公里,但对我来说意义很重大。我搭的第二辆车,欧大哥和他的女朋友黄女士,从昆明西高速收费站搭我到大理下关,300公里。他们从昆明去德宏出差经过大理,载上了我。崇圣寺三塔之一崇圣寺三塔之一大理古城北门大理古城大理古城大理古城内的街道树下冥想的老者大理的洋人街大理古城的街道大理古城内,骑单车的外国美眉大理古城内的建筑古城内的流水大理五华楼城门开灯饰品店琳琅满目的灯饰大理古城地理识大理古城家家有流水户户有繁花苍山上的云徒步去洱海的路上,一片水稻田洱海边露营的夜晚洱海边的夜晚布满繁星搭车去尼泊尔(四):洱海日出,丽江漫步,夜宿黑龙潭 D5/2011.7.25 今日行程:大理古城→丽江古城,搭车2次,里程165公里。徒步8公里。 早上天刚亮,在我露营的码头就有附近的村民前来洗衣、挑水、散步,窸窸窣窣的脚步声,没办法再睡,只好起来,拿了相机坐在洱海边等日出。我在洱海边的营地。天边现出朝霞,等待日出。洱海边的村民,在湖里捕鱼。洱海边的村庄朝霞洱海日出收拾好营地,准备启程,自拍一张上路吧,对着我的影子说。大片的稻田,穿过这片稻田,远方就是大理古城和苍山。一开始,我沿着这条土路要走回大理城内,不过半路搭上了一位大哥的车,不然要再走一个小时。 看完日出,收拾帐篷,徒步往回走,去大理古城内吃早饭。这一段土路比较长,本来至少要走一个半小时,但走了半个小时后,路上开过来一辆小车,我抱着试试看的态度招了下手,车居然停下来了。我问司机能否搭我出这段土路到公路上去,师傅答应了。运气真好,不然我还要走一个小时才能出去。 进大理古城吃了早点,又回到马路边,开始搭车去丽江。车很多,但不太好搭,我像昨天一样,写了个“丽江”的牌子举在胸前。一直等了40分钟后,杨女士的车停在我前面,搭上了我。 杨女士是丽江人,跑旅游的,女儿刚高考完毕,报的西南民族大学,她开私家车带女儿去昆明玩,今天回丽江。车子沿着盘山公路疾驶,杨女士车技确实很赞,驾轻就熟,开得既快又稳,不愧是开车跑旅游路线的司机。路上会遇到骑单车的车友,我都会在车上跟他们大声喊加油,因为我有过经历我知道,一个人骑单车走长途,尤其是在爬坡的时候,路上任何一个陌生人的鼓励都会让人觉得倍受鼓舞,觉得世界美好。曾经那些陌生人带给我的鼓励,我要把它带给每一位单车进藏者。 快到丽江的时候,路不太好,据说是因为在修机场。下午两点到了丽江市区,直奔古城。下车的时候,杨女士突然跟我说,这样吧,你还是给点油费吧,因为我们毕竟是跑旅游的。我感到有点意外,因为在大理上车的时候,我就说明了自己是搭车旅行者,而且路上我也有提到自己的计划是搭顺风车去尼泊尔。但我又想了想,没做争辩,问多少钱,她说五十,其实这个价钱相对于这段路来说很公道,即使坐大巴也要这么多钱。我付给了杨女士五十元钱。 这件事确实有点特殊。一般来说,搭车路上,如果司机停下车问你,你表明想搭车,如果他说可以,那没什么问;如果说他问你出多少钱,你可以表明自己是搭顺风车,不付钱,如果他能接受,就搭,不能接受,开车走也没什么问;又或者在实在搭不到车的情况下,花点钱也是有可能的,但之前要谈好价格。有的车是专门跑旅游的,是拉客的车,不可能免费搭你,但有的车是顺路自驾的车,可能搭你,但也可能跟你讲价钱。 就杨女士的事来说,我不能说她的行为不对,毕竟人家帮助了我,如果不是这样,也许今天我会在路边等更久,也并不是钱的问,只是之前我表明了是搭车,她也答应了,后来向我收钱,确实有点意料之外。也只能说在搭车的路上,什么情况都可能遇到。我搭的第四辆车,大理古城至丽江古城。路上遇到的运送火把的车辆。那几天正好是当地少数民族的盛大节日——火把节,这辆车后面装的就是节日用的火把。车上拍的,路边的风景。 到丽江后,进入大研古镇,找地方吃饭,之后在镇上闲逛。开始太阳挺大,后来下雨,并越下越大。我在大树下避雨,看着古街上来往的游客。丽江古城给人的第一印象:小资,美女,酒吧,客栈,庭院,各种特色小店,总之,是妞们大爱的地方,来这里的妞们,喜欢披个披肩或是穿波西米亚的长裙,一副风情万种的女文艺青年样,要不就是热裤吊带高跟鞋,大秀美腿。但有一点必须承认,美女确实很多。 在城内溜达的时候,有个年轻人叫住了我,他叫小潘,从南京过来的,大三学生,他的旅行方式跟我差不多,搭车、徒步,要到拉萨去。他出门的时候带了600块钱,7.3号从昆明出来,9号走到到丽江没钱了,就一直在古城内某酒店里打工,要到30号结账。他表示想和我一起走,问我能不能等,但我估计不太可能会在丽江呆到30号,因为计划还要去泸沽湖和虎跳峡徒步,于是我说看情况吧。相互留了手机号,随时保持联系。但其实最后小潘离开丽江走滇藏的时候一直在我前面,一直到拉萨。我们一路保持联系,他给我提供了不少有用的信息,只是后来一直没机会再碰面,他到拉萨的时候我在墨脱,我到拉萨的时候他去珠峰了,我去珠峰的时候他又回拉萨了,我再回拉萨的时候他已经回去上学了。 刚开始进入古城的时候觉得人还挺少,直到走到四方街附近,才发现游客都扎堆在这了。天还未黑,酒吧一条街已经喧闹非常。我穿过酒吧一条街,一直往黑龙潭方向走,我想在天黑之前找个合适的露营地。进入黑龙潭是需要凭借缴纳的古城维护费收据的,为了逃票,我脱掉鞋,趟过没膝的河水,借着灌木丛的掩护,进入了黑龙潭景区。在里面转了一圈,露营地址选在湖心岛上的“得月楼”下面走廊上,这里位置绝佳,既能遮风避雨,又适合取景拍照。 晚上八点多,开始搭帐篷。此时公园里还有稀稀落落的游客,有几个山东游客见我这样很好奇,问了下我的行程,觉得很神奇,要拉着我一起合影,真是受宠若惊,搞得我都有点不好意思了。 到了晚上九点二十,景区内就一个人也没有了,灯也全部熄掉了,静得连掉根针的声音都听得到。有几只不知是家猫还是野猫,在外面叫唤,被我轰走了。打开手电,在帐篷内记日记,肚子咕咕叫,想起晚上一直在找露营地,连晚饭也忘了吃,只好啃了个苹果充饥。 公园里非常静,只剩下幽蓝的湖水和漫天的星光,我出去拍了几张夜景,回来躺在帐篷里,睡不着。我能遥远地听见山下的酒吧里传来的歌声,还有人群的欢呼声,那应该是人们在火把节上围着篝火狂欢的声音,彝族、白族的火把节要持续三天,明天会更热闹。我在山上,只有静静湖水,灿烂星河,鱼跃起拨拉湖水,水鸟的呓语。不知道为什么会想起“孤单是一个人的狂欢,狂欢是一群人的孤单”这句话,真是莫名其妙。丽江的餐馆([]

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([]
