更多的第一次出国已经不是第一次了,而自己办理证的出国还第一次。用双脚跨出国门不是第一次了,而和同伴们一起跨出国门还是第一次。在国外过夜不是第一次了,而在国外待上1周以上这次是第一次。用各种交通工具回国不是第一次了,而飞跃喜马拉雅回国这是第一次。而每次旅行途中的第一次都让我们刻骨铭心。尼泊尔联邦民主共和国-सæ6;328;ीय 54;ोè5;त366;44;्त2381;352;67;क ग2339;340;न381;40;्र366;त;्2350;क; 加德满都-25;ा2336;350;ाड380;2306;, क2366;ठमा;न381;337;ु;奇特旺国家公园-é0;ì7;340;57;2344; ë2;366;ष्35;्2352;367;351; ê4;िक69;334;81;2332;蓝毗尼-ë4;ì9;म381;48;367;नì8;博卡拉-46;379;खरा;https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2249859-1-1.html西藏篇各位可以点这里奥 精彩mv可以点击这里以下是尼泊尔部分的精彩N张 https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2249859-1-1.html西藏篇各位可以点这里奥精彩mv可以看这里奥 尼泊尔:樟木—科达里—加德满都—奇特旺森林公园—蓝毗尼—博卡拉—巴德岗—帕坦—上海2014年10月9日前一天和师傅说好,九点去银行拿钱,我们八点半在酒店门口碰头,一起走上去吃个早饭把尾款给结掉就可以从樟木出发向尼泊尔了。一早打了N个电话就是说两句给挂了,就是看不到人影,好不容易出现,让我们走楼道,结果自己又不上来,就为这事搞了半个多小时,终于和我们一起去银行拿钱了。一大早就被弄得心情很差。哪有拿钱也不这么心甘情愿的,真不知道怎么想的。我们走去银行的时候,已经开门了,拿了两万元,那银行工作人员也挺牛的,我拿二万,他给我帐户上加了二万,后来给我字的时候,让我了四万,只有笑笑的份了。问过银行没办法换卢比,于是就和一路跟来的那个女人换的,换了好多米米,心情也好点了。走回酒店的路上,我们把在西藏捡的石头给寄回去,写了几张明信片寄出,这么一弄师傅又没影了,本来还打算在他车上拍一张公里数的,也没达成。更不要让他把我们送到口岸,那时的我,真的有点想快点和他结束关系的感觉,虽说有点不尽人情,但是我真的不太想看到他。而我们同去尼泊尔同伴,已经在酒店前台等着,所以我们很捉急,于是快步走回酒店。把东东理好后就到楼下去了,而此时我们的师傅不知道到哪里去了,因为我们付了押金,所以又开始打电话和他说,他才慢悠悠回来,把卡交了才拿到押金。而我们的同伴已经找好去口岸的车子,正等在酒店门口,就这样没吃早饭的我们,拿着行李上了小差头,头也不回地朝着尼泊尔前进了。本来在功略里面一直说,过关的人们很多,要排很久的队伍,可能我们走得实在是晚了,进关排队的时候人不多,没排多久就直接进关,中方这里没怎么耽误,就这么地走到边境了,在分隔线上有很多武警监督着,没办法像在越南的时候那么摆拍。于是快走进尼泊尔境内。拿着大包小包的我们,被分成男女两组,请进类似小房子内,将我们的随身用品一通翻,一直在找皮夹子的感觉,我出去一般不带,拿个信封装装大面额的,小袋子里面装点我们平时要用的小钱,所以他没怎么找到,不过最后还是发现了,拿出来一看,问我要,我说这都大面额的,没有零钱,他夸我很干净,我夸他很PL,很NICE,反正那时把自己能说的好话全都说了一遍,然后他就让我过了。而在排队等检查的时候,发现只有我们亚洲人需要检查的,欧洲的直接让他们走的,不用走这个流程。之后又被叫进了个房间,原来是填写入境表,大家共同努力就这么顺利地通过了,可能是真的因为我们时间晚了,也没很找麻烦的样子,就这么就这样,自己就这么走出中国走向世界了,直到他们敲了章后,还一直不太相信,会如此之顺利呢。我们本打算去问问SUV的,一路上总有人来拉客,功略上有说,有一段路是需要自己走的,所以没怎么去应付他们,后来一直到班车上车点,才发现,原来SUV都在上面了,下面根本就没有,于是就想问问班车多少钱。找了半天没找到司机和卖票的人,在卖票处探头也没找到工作人员。于是看到一警察,结果开始用英文使上了,结果刚说完,只见这警察叔叔,就拿起他的小哨子,开始使劲的吹吹,而且不停地拍打着卖票的小亭子,一直在用当地语在问人去哪了的样子。之后找到卖票小黑,然后问完之后,和我们说哪辆车,到哪里的,多少钱。我一直以为是个好的班车,他说不是的,甚至到后面把我拉到班车前面,告诉我们就是这辆之后,就闪人,还没来得及和他道谢,忘记说了,我们那时问的班车价格是400RS,而他帮我们问的是320RS,之后在饭店里面吃饭的时候,来了个小姑娘,说是价格500RS,这里有很多水份呢。我们问那个卖票小黑,大概什么时候开车,说我们能不能先吃个中饭,还好明智呀,因为开了一整天,让他开车的时候叫我们一下,我们就点了炒饭开吃喽。吃完饭发现车子上面已经坐了人,马上拿好行李上车找位置。看着卖票小黑吃着抓饭,还是一直没适应过来的感觉。等等车车一直没开,于是让两男人去问问有没有SUV,倒是有一辆车正好在,卖票小黑看到此景,带了一大帮人去卖那个SUV的司机,其实我们也没打算要换车,因为价格实在有点高,不过如果早知道后面是这么一大段路程,估计也就不省这个钱了。之后没过多久,终于开车了,这一路的车绝对疯狂的,不仅在车里面都是人和货,车顶上也没放过,车门旁也没放过,就坐上当地人的公交车感觉,车子里面的感觉很差,又闷又热又臭,一路看到很多大大小小的镇,有很大,也有很小的,两三家的,一路绕来绕去的,总觉得是在原路上面开来开去的,过桥,过河过一切,还看到那段塌方的路。售票员很专业的,上下客极其快捷,这一路还负责指挥车子,还帮乘客到小商店买东东,还帮我们垫了不够的钱,上车收钱,绝对专业哦。从中午开始出发,到晚上星火点点,终于到达了我们的目的地—加都。在半路上面上来一群90后,他们是坐了小车到了一个地方,别人不肯再开了,把他们赶下来了,再坐上我们的班车,其中一个小朋友就一直在车上和我们聊天,问我们有没有做过功课,到最后下车的时候,就变成一大帮人跟着我们去泰米尔了。大概拦了三到四辆的差头去的泰米尔。我是这么容易纠集到大群人的嘛。这一整天坐了班车,只想早点找到酒店,但不能不管这些小朋友,我们找了个酒店,帮他们讲价后,他们都觉得有点贵,超出预算,只能再出发去找。我们就直接办理入住了。这个价格还是我们同伴问住在酒店里的人问到的价格。在第二天的时候,还遇到他们,估计也仍是住在这个附近吧。至从坐过这个班车,我们在吃饭的时候,达成一致,还是明天找个旅行社吧,走接下来的行程比较适合,不想再自己找班车去坐了。所以一件坏事的发生,也会带来些好事的吧。我们的奇幻之旅,即将开启喽。开销明细:车费:12000元兑换:6000元(RS98500)打车口岸:30元公共基金:RS20000地图+明信片:RS500饮料:RS125饺子:RS50饮料:RS300其中公共基金详单:科达里午餐:RS600至加都班车:RS1280可乐:RS240班车终点至泰米尔:RS300住宿费:RS800*2=RS1600晚餐:RS6685本来在邮政局想寄的明信片,但发现酒店里还有,于是回酒店,抓紧时间写了几张,一直带着到口岸才寄的一下子变大户喽,六千人民币换滴和差头小哥说了一下,立马记住啦,找个合理安全的位置,让我们完成目喽,后面的一路上,小哥一直问我们,还要不要拍,要不要拍呢慢慢接近于口岸近了近了,看看,太激动了,都糊了哈,下车进关喽~~好了,现在可以正式介绍下我们尼泊尔之行的同伴,那就是我们之前在老定日的珠峰大酒店里面遇见的夫妻—大象和红茶。到底有同伴了,连过关都不觉得害怕啦。有两对人真好!此时的我们,已经顺利出关喽,耶!看看他们。。。看看我原以为,我们的班车是蓝色的,想想还不错,可是事实上我们的中饭,还好抓紧时间吃了一顿,好好迎接一下午的车程吃完饭,发现车上已经有人坐着了,三步并两步,立马上车占坑喽。还算位置OK吧?这就是之前所提到的卖票小黑后来我们改称他为小绿,因为他穿绿衣服。我们坐了N久的班车尼泊尔的吊桥非常有特色,质量极好塌方区,可以看出当时的惨烈生活习惯上看尼泊尔还是接近印度,比如这吊车的习惯。([]

本贴是小编在8264的处女贴,因为是个“生态学家”,所以必然先为大家介绍奇特的物种。小编酷爱野生动物,自然环境,以及相关的户外活动。曾亲身考察了各个洲的部分区域,将会以图文并茂的方式提供给大家不同当地物种与环境的知识,分享小编的个人经历。希望大家积极参与国外户外活动。如有不明处请不要犹豫询问小编,小编必定知无不言言无不尽。本帖主:山地大猩猩 Mountain Gorilla活动地点:东非 (Uganda乌干达,Rwanda卢旺达)主要景点:布温迪不可穿越的森林国家公园 (乌干达)Bwindi Impenetrable National Park https//bbs.8264.com/forum-redirect-goto-findpost-ptid-1821265-pid-33537862.html 维龙加火山国家公园 (卢旺达)Virunga Volcanic National Park https//bbs.8264.com/forum-redirect-goto-findpost-ptid-1821265-pid-33547215.html附加景点 伊丽莎白国家公园 (乌干达) Elizabeth National Parkhttps//bbs.8264.com/forum-redirect-goto-findpost-ptid-1821265-pid-33494840.html维龙加山地形图,山脉横跨乌干达,卢旺达与刚果。直奔主吧,非洲“山地大猩猩”保守估计少于1000只,属于严重濒危物种(严重程度超过大熊猫与江豚)。分布在乌干达,卢旺达与刚果的国家公园境内,属纯野生动物。银背:一个家族的首领,当仁不让的保护者。 雄性在成年后,背部会长出银灰色的毛,身高大约在1.8米,体重200公斤,臂长2.3米,十分了得。 后背毛发短,手臂毛发长而茂密。小编不敢亲身体验他的力道,所以无从估计,实在抱歉!不过听公园管理员说,10个美式橄榄球运动员也不能抗衡一只银背. 看到我们一行人后,自觉提醒家族成员,是一位首领的任务。 行注目礼立刻抱起并保护幼崽。来几张局部特写 (虽然爬了5个小时的山,但是扛着大白镜头是完全正确的)看到我们并无敌意,开始悠哉的打盹了。 (估计是刚刚吃饱) 大猩猩咬力惊人,遇到敌人时一定会撕咬对方。哥们你是不是改减减肥了,看你腰间那游泳圈!呵,“沉思者”你这还玩起造型来了? 看到我们一行人不停围着族群走动拍照,显得有些不耐烦了,开始咆哮! (其实也就是打个哈气)仔细看上去,银背还是很帅的。雌性:哺育家族下一代的呵护者。体重几乎为雄性的一半:100公斤,身高1.3米,胸前有傲人的双峰,头部也比雄性小很多,容易区别。小编一行人里的妹子们! 你们看人家多么汹涌澎湃!幼崽在母亲的怀里很安逸。特写: “你在想什么呢”?“小宝宝与妈妈” 这伟大的一刻让我抓拍下来了! 我们这使劲的拍,你就不能关照一下吗? 就知道睡!你表情那么凝重干嘛?雌性局部特写未完待续,还有幼崽,家族结构,国家公园风景,其他大草原上的动物的介绍,以及全部东非生态游的行程慨括。幼崽:活泼可爱,却命运不定的嬉戏者。猩猩幼崽喜爱玩耍,经常爬树,与其他幼崽摔跤,打闹,游戏。这样有助于他们的成长与学习,必要时成年雄性与雌性也会参加到游戏当中。爸爸说:“喂,你过去跟这帮人类打个招呼,注意点啊。”小家伙爬到离我们差不多2米的距离是,我旁边的小妹估计是有点害怕,站起身来要往后退。 当时银背就立起来了,我那个汗啊! 预感要出事了,公园巡逻员立刻按住小妹让她蹲下,才避免了悲剧发生。还知道找妈妈要东西吃!幼年的猩猩活动量非常大,几乎没有闲着的时候,扒高上低让我们很难抓拍。算了,直接上嘴咬吧。小编一开始为什么说幼崽的命运是不定的呢? 这就要从大猩猩的族群制度开始讲起了,首先一个族群只能有一个领头银背,4-7个左右的成年雌性,3-5个成年雄性 (也可能是首领银背的兄弟或儿子),其他为4岁以下的幼年猩猩。大猩猩没有领地性,哪里有实物就去哪里。偶尔遇到豹子之类的掠食者,银背会挺身而出,但是惧怕变色龙与鳄鱼等爬行类动物。当遇到另一个族群时,如果出现矛盾,银背会开始攻击对方的首领,直到死亡。当一个族群没有首领时,幼年的猩猩就会被新首领杀死,以保证自己与后代以后不受威胁,生物上称这种现象为 infanticide (杀婴)。 聊完山地大猩猩,那么开始介绍这一趟旅行的过程。我们做的是埃塞俄比亚航公公司的班级,大家也可以选择肯尼亚航空,这一点不详细介绍了。DAY 1: 乌干达首都: 坎帕拉。 听向导RICHARD 讲,坎帕拉有五个丘陵,分别成为一个镇区,当地的人民虽然在城里长大但是都有自己所属的部族。我们外国人当然分不清啦!也学了几句Swahili,但是现在全忘了。整个城区就是一个字,乱。毕竟经济不发达,而且自从1962年独立后也饱受国家民族内战,希望以后会慢慢好起来。以为独立之前是英殖民,所以公路上也是左行,偶尔能看见基座高楼,十字路口也会有白衣警察。80%多人都信奉基督,具体是天主教还是新教没有多问,也有伊斯兰教徒。在坎帕拉其中一个山丘俯瞰城区市里的清真寺([]
第二次在8264上发帖找伴,临行前两个礼拜,才发的帖,详见召集帖https//bbs.8264.com/thread-1204496-3-1.html,急匆匆组了队。其实对我这样的懒人而言,实在是因为赶不上4.6小豆他们的队,而我又刚好要赶在4月底前赶回成都,这个时段找遍8264,绿野,磨房都没有合适的队伍跟,悲催!看来只有硬起头皮自己来,其实我是多么多么的希望有组织可以依靠,而我只需要走,不停的往前走,那才是我要的幸福户外生活。 而且发帖,从一开始准备走贡嘎,我也就准备了只留点照片在空间占个位,没事了自己看看,留给关注的朋友看看,就没想过要发帖。对我而言,发帖是一件多么悲惨的,饱受折磨的事情。花那么多时间码字,回忆,整理照片,坐在电脑前,我会发狂的。从玩户外这么多年,05年开始的,我就写过两篇帖子,但是只有一篇是写完的,另一篇就半途夭折了。而且都是在转山的路上就已经用日记的方式写在了纸上了,回来只是打上去,配点照片。出发贡嘎以后,从一出发时就安排了我们的小美女,还是在校大学生的小许负责本次的游记。但是,现在我一定要写,而且还要坐在电脑前凭借回忆原原本本的写上去。 以上啰嗦了那么多,就是因为有些话,我不得不说,不吐不快,所以我不得不写。先介绍下我们的队友。 小许 远近 谢雨 土狼 土狼+1 万里,可惜我这没有他的单人照,后面唯一的一张合影有他的一点影子,队友们有他照片的帮我贴吧。还有说明一下,我们成队为了包车方便是五个人,土狼和+1是他们先一天就到了老榆林,但是我们出发前就有联系,觉得可以一块走就等齐一块,其实是他们两兄弟在前面等着我们,辛苦了。 蔚蓝 闲话少说,我们来边图边叙。 一进到日乌且沟不久,就见到了传说中的红石滩,一个一个的红石滩,或深或浅,间断分隔。自然的和外面人工的就是不一样! 每天起床有太阳照着是多么幸福的时光,连那个影子都那么绚丽,这丝丝缕缕的阳光,让我想起我们翻过日乌且垭口后的那一晚,那一日,我们就在大雪纷飞中拔足狂奔。 而事后想起来,矛盾就是从第一晚的扎帐开始的。我的想法是我们从水电站开始徒步,大致一个小时左右就可以到格西草原扎帐,我们的攻略上也是这样安排的。我们晚上800从水电站出发,走了大约半个钟,在一个平台处,万里先是说他上去打望下,我本来在前面领路走的,然后就是大家在等他下来,10分钟左右他来了,然后就说今晚不走了,就在这扎吧,我把我的意思和大家说明了一下,然后表明我不算是领队,大家按户外的规矩投票吧,那边谢雨最先举起了手同意就地扎帐,然后是小许,我看了看远近,她没说话,我说那就扎吧。当晚下车的时候我就觉得头沉,过远近帐篷和大家沟通了下我就回帐篷睡了。 沟通挺搞笑的。明天继续! 继续我们出发第一晚的沟通,全队五个人,三男二女,我简单地介绍了下我们的行程,计划,再次和大家确认下,这里面谢雨和小许算是新驴,也是第一次走长线和第一次高海拔徒步,远近是爬过雪山的老驴,也就是我眼中的雪山派,万里,老驴,据他介绍是深圳登协的,俱乐部商业领队。蔚蓝,老驴,第一次带队走这样的长线。这次大家出来,我不是领队,首先要申明,我只是自己想走这条线,约几个朋友一起走,好玩,也可以分摊车费。其次,大家出来户外,尤其像我们这种重装徒步的,大家一定要了解自己。明天22号我们的目是上日乌且,23号翻垭口到磨西沟,24号冬季牧场,25号贡嘎寺,26号中午上木居,已经和多吉大叔约好了他们的小面包26号中午11点左右在那接我们,定金都已经放了,订车也是大家在老榆林就集体同意的。万里接上说,那要在子梅垭口住一晚。我看了一圈大家,没人有异议,那就稍微修改下,24号赶到贡嘎寺,25号子梅垭口扎帐,其他的不变,这一趟,我关注三个点,日乌且垭口,贡嘎寺,子梅垭口,其他的无所谓。从攻略上来看,明后天会比较辛苦。还有就是遇上大家有分歧的地方,我们大家投票选择,我说完了。 接下来就是万里同学,他说,首先,蔚蓝是我们的总领队,大家有什么事,要听从安排。其次,高海拔徒步,可能每个人高反情况不同,走到哪儿算哪,我们是出来玩的。当时听了那话,我第一感觉就是我们五个人的小队,什么总领队!未必还要整一排的副领队什么的。还有我们是重装穿越,什么走哪就算哪,那我们还做计划干嘛,还重装干嘛!在我眼里,重装就意味着能吃苦,想吃苦,以苦为乐,起码那个几天是。只是当时这些话没去说而已!当时就再次重复了没有领队这个说法,我们大家一起玩,只是前期攻略我在做而已,大家还是按投票做选择。万里听我那么说,又提了个:那大家就试下每个人轮流一天做领队,让大家体验下做领队的辛苦。我当时就没接那个话。心想,这个领队有什么权力嘛?一天到晚都在赶路看风景,有分歧了也是大家投票。而且让两个新人去做领队!完了我就回帐去睡了,我睡的是万里的帐,他们四个在远近的帐里接着海聊。这儿还有个小插曲,当时扎下帐时,我就和万里说,你要抽烟,尽量到外面抽,我不喜欢闻烟味。万里是把烟枪,他听了就跑远近帐去抽了,抽到多晚回来的?反正我早睡着了。到了行程的后面,远近一直策蔚蓝睡的帐,坐的车是不能抽烟的!说到我也觉得自己有点过分一样,把他从自己的帐篷里赶出去一样,其实我没赶哦!几个人无聊枯糙的走在沟中,一走就是两天,偶尔回头望望,就一直是这几个山峰垛那儿,听那个雪山派美女一直说说,后面最高的是什么田海子峰,是她的下一个目。我貌似没一点印象,哈哈,除了穿越贡嘎,我们道不同! 传说中的虫草,可别只找到美女哦 小荷才露尖尖角,小贡嘎 阳光如此多娇,引无数白云竟折腰 从我们扎帐的地方出发十几分钟就到了格西草原 经过格西草原后不远,我们追上了前面的土狼哥俩,从这两队变一队,我们变成七人队。 还有从出发地就一起走过来的两位当地挖虫草的村民,一路和他们聊过来,他们也是认为现在过垭口,难。而且我们今天要赶到上日乌且,不可能。 17:30,我们终于到了下日乌且处的一处废弃的牛棚处,只剩下半围的一堆石头了。万里提议今天不走了,小许有点高反,头晕。其实这时候离天黑还有老长一段时间,我们对下日乌且也没有明确的地。攻略上称从下到上日乌且还需2个小时,如果这儿算下日乌且,我们今天完全可以按计划赶到的。我说,大家看看吧,如果今天扎帐在下日乌且,那明天我们翻垭口前的体力消耗将会很大,而且时间上对我们也挺不利,我们必须赶在中午时间翻垭口。而且前面是什么状况,垭口前垭口后是什么状况,我们没有人走过,所以尽量多留足点余地给自己。大家都比较纠结,土狼那边那个兄弟,体力也比较不乐观,因为体重的缘故,他上到高原喘得厉害,土狼给他从两岔河租个马到下日乌且,牧民就问他要了五百,其实攻略上这也就一个多钟的路程。但是这哥们精神很乐观,他随我们,我们走,他也走,我们扎,他们也扎。问关键还是回到我们这,我建议大家考虑后面的路情,尽量赶到上日乌且,但是万里提出不走了,而小谢和小许无条件的跟他的意见,远近无所谓,不发表意见,我随大家吧。只能如此! 当夜因为有土狼他们带的腊肉,我们这边貌似都带的干粮,我带的鱼啊肉的都是那种超市买的包装的,对那种家用的有天然的亲近感,我很自然的就跑那边撑肉吃去了。小谢,小许和万里三个人在谢雨的帐篷那边弄饭吃,我们四个围在远近的帐篷里烧肉吃。今天晚上我都头痛有越来越厉害的趋势,让我想起EBC的几个观景点的苦痛,脑门两边使劲往脑袋中间挤,这样的头痛就是我的高反的典型代表。土狼的席梦思抬了一个放在帐篷里,我坐在里面,身体挺舒服,比他们任何一个都要舒服吧!但是头痛。土狼和他兄弟在折腾肉和面,我和远近就等吃就ok,玩户外这么长,似乎凡事都在亲力亲为,没享受过这种待遇一样,只是现在才反省过来的。外面慢慢的下起雪粒子,越来越大,后面又转成雨,尤其是晚上我回帐篷睡了,耳听着外面的雨转变成瓢泼大雨,担心扎在坡上的远近的A塔被水泡,防潮垫和睡袋全被水泡,那觉可真没法睡了,让万里大声叫应她,万一不行就大家挤好了,只是没有一点回声,雨的声音太大。 是夜,因为雨雪,因为有啤酒,因为有美女,我们四个好像聊了很多很多,聊到很晚了大家都不肯散一样。而关于明天关于贡嘎的,大家心头都沉着呢,估计不乐观,我们转回老榆林泡温泉算。 早上照例是小谢和万里最先起来,他们两个真的好精神,在外面转了一圈又一圈,我们还在睡着呢!我们都喜欢睡到太阳晒帐篷,睡袋,才有想爬出来的精神。 他们两个兜完了,来到帐篷前,外面昨晚下好厚的一层雪,估计垭口上,路上又平添一层。万里提议可能日乌且垭口过不了,改走盘盘山垭口,小谢也建议这样。我听了,认为这样不妥,第一我们没做盘盘山的攻略,第二,那边时间会比现在的路线多两天时间,我们的干粮和时间都不够。而且,从整队的行进速度的随心所欲,和昨晚恶劣的天气,我都只想下撤到老榆林泡着了。他们认为盘盘山应该只有一条路,而且刚好有一队重庆驴友走盘盘山,但是我认为盘盘山怎么可能只有一条路,哪座山都绝不止一条路,这个太冒险。而重庆队有租马,我们重装是没有办法跟得上的。如果大家不走日乌且,我就选择下撤,想走盘盘山的就跟万里走吧,但是我建议你们到两岔河租马,有马就有向导。当时三个人的小碰头就是这样了,结果就是他们两种选择,盘盘山和下撤,我的选择:日乌且和下撤。 等到大家都起来了,我提议大家都思考一下,我们下一步怎么弄。这时,万里同学很激动的说,他今天上午哪里都不去了,挖虫草去!顺便休整!我还未及吭声,平时不怎么表态的远近高兴地附和道,那我去你帐篷里睡觉去,昨晚一点都没睡好。小谢和小许一看,说那也挖虫草去,我说,你们要挖,要休息,你们呆着,我下撤!说完大家散了,万里和小许挖虫草去了,小谢去沟里拍照片。 1050分,蔚蓝,远近,和土狼兄弟两我们四个继续上路往日乌且垭口进发。至于事情结局为什么又发生了这么大的改变,请继续关注! 一路向日乌且垭口,只是图片上的不是我们,而是挖虫草的村民,这时节去,家家户户都上山挖去了,要找个司机,向导之类的,可费老劲了。 在下日乌且,发生了最滑稽最重大的一幕,我们七个人的队伍分成两队,一队在原地挖虫草,一队继续向日乌且垭口进发,我们四个整装重新出发,将近夭折的贡嘎穿越走出最坚实的那步 就在这雪地里撒把野 上完长长地碎石坡,是一个小垭口,一路顺着小水沟向前,就到了路书上小豆他们扎帐的巨石旁了,此时,大雪纷飞,我们四个队形严谨。 再往前,就是日乌且沟的尽头,远处连绵的就是日乌且峰和----。 未到山前,我们就要从右侧的山坡上往上往前横切了,爬升正式开始 上垭口前的最后见证人,专职挖虫草,他介绍的和小豆路书上的差不多,垭口雪到了大腿,估计很难过,建议不要去了。看我们那么坚决,告诉我们翻过前面那个小雪坡,再到视线尽头那个大雪坡,后面就是垭口,大雪坡前都有他的脚印,让我们跟着走。到此,看来一切都对得上,我的心稍安定一点。 一路上坡横切,间或会是灌木丛,日乌且沟慢慢掉在了脚下,小贡嘎也慢慢成为了背影 我们需要穿越左侧的雪地,才能爬上左侧的小雪坡,所以小,是因为她后面的更大,我们走近她时,看不到头顶和脚下出路在何方!只有上面,还是上面。这时的天,和纷飞大雪似乎一点关系都没有 路,就在脚下。 我们就一直坐在这,傻傻的等。从1520一直到1700,等着土狼他们两个上来,其间甚至发生了几轮激烈地争执。远近的观点是大家是一个队,就要等齐了一起走,前面就是雪线了。我则坚持,土狼他朋友在下面沟里已经是疲惫不堪地跟,这回一上坡准没戏了,估计这一趟就是我们两个的事了,你要上,我们就上,你要不上了,我更不上了。远近还是坚持就算他们不上了,也该上来和我们说声。这道理俺懂,俺也知道,这个结果,七个人的队,只剩下我们两个上去,就算过不去,起码我们去试了,很难让自己心里接受!但是大好下午的一个多小时,不就是最好的证明!我们实在是不能再等下去了!要么下撤到沟底和他们一起下撤,要么就是往前,尽量往前,再找合适的地儿扎帐。只是拗不过她的殷殷期盼,我只有轻装回头去找土狼他们两个,回头近300—400m,是一处高台,在那几乎可以望到沟底,扫视,呼喊,毫无反应。就这样,她彻底绝望了,我们才重新上路。后来下山后和土狼联系上,确实是他朋友走不动了,决定放弃,下撤到沟底,我们的呼喊他们能够听到,只是他们的回应我们听不到,风大,逆风。 看上去,我们离沟底是多么多么的近,但是我们走上来,很辛苦,甚至和土狼他们连告别的话都没能说上 雪地上徒步,让我想起在Cho La Par,我最不擅长的就是这个,一会会的工夫,已是脚发软,不知是走雪地特费劲,还是心里鸭梨山大,而且这个小雪坡的雪已经比那个垭口的雪厚得多了。我是男人,当然得我来开路! 雪坡上来了只是后面的还是雪坡。我们不知道后面等着的会是什么?更糟的是,挖虫草人的足迹慢慢地就没了,在白茫茫而刺眼的雪坡中我们迷失了方向,只记得往上,往上。 前面的坡太陡,我们已经折腾了一天,我们得省着点,选择横切,希望可以绕到垭口前 左侧,沟的对面就是万古不化的冰川,在阳光下呈蓝色,不时会有轰然塌落的巨响([]

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?

此行之初,只是想骑行新藏线。并不曾对“自驾”和“大北线”做功课。后来旅途中有变,大北线便成了这次旅行中精彩的一段。 这次行程,大概可分三个阶段: 1、结伴骑行新藏线(喀什--康西瓦)。 2、千里走单骑(有骑行的日子,也有搭车的日子,红柳滩--塔钦) 3、自驾大北线。对新藏线的心动,来自以下描述: 新藏线起点为新疆叶城,终点为西藏拉孜的国道,全程2140千米。 路况介绍 :它是世界上最艰险的公路之一。它穿越举世闻名的昆仑山、喀喇昆仑山、岗底斯山、喜马拉雅山,翻越16个冰大坂,涉44条冰河,全线经过的大部份地段为“无人区”。平均海拔4500米以上,是世界上海拔最高、道路最险、路况极差和环境最恶劣的高原公路。这就是新藏公路,也被称作国道219线。 关于新藏线的顺口溜 : “行车新藏线,不亚蜀道难。库地大坂险,犹似鬼门关;麻扎大坂尖,陡升五千三;黑卡大坂旋,九十九道湾;界山大坂弯,伸手可摸天……”这段顺口溜,这是新藏线艰险的真实写照。 从叶城往阿里海拔相差很大,一天之内可以从海拔数百米的新疆地段上升到五千余米的麻扎大坂路段,对几乎所有旅行者的身体素质而言是极大的考验和困难,高寒缺氧、雪崩塌方、高山反应、多变的气候及确确实实的风餐露宿等困难,已经超过了许多常人的承受极限. 后来在‘狼塔夏特群’里,正好听到南京的好人锅讲到要骑行此线,心念一动,便加入了。于是有了2011年4月下旬出发的这次旅行。 装备篇资深的网上很多,不多说,略晒下自己的行前准备,留个念想吧。---我的战马:衣物:(长袖速干衣裤、冲锋衣裤、抓绒衣裤、羽绒服、溯溪鞋、高帮登山鞋等)睡袋、帐篷、防潮垫、驮包、弹力绳: 修车工俱、备胎(内胎3条,外胎一条)及配件、炉俱等边防证、身份证、手套、雪套、护膝、雨衣等药品:(后来又添了速效救心丸、氨茶碱、速尿片等。高原长途旅行,这几种药很有用。) 折腾了大半天来整理行囊,书房被搞的满地狼籍,难以下脚。一半装备都整理进驮包了,忽然想起应该给它们合张影。懒得再掏出驮包里的装备,就这样来一张装备们的全家福吧: 全部打完包,去铁通托运车子,整装待发…… 2011年4月25日晚,背起行囊出发了,又是一个人。驾车到火车站,再火车、飞机,一路辗转,路上小磕绊不断:火车晚点急得我跳脚,甩钱雇车飞奔、跳下车我也狂奔才赶上飞机。 飞机上不幸又遭临座的维族小朋友骚扰,还没断奶的两岁小男孩不断地把我的上衣撩起,又或者直接把领口拉到肩膀下…… 维族小男孩的妈妈笑观不语,本人尴尬之极,又不忍责备小孩,后来空姐看不下去把我领走和乘务人员们同坐。再转机,行李被人拿错,折腾半天。 一个人行走,自由+乱糟糟,无语。 终于26日下午16时许到乌鲁木奇,与南京的好人锅、戊名汇合;趁转机喀什的空闲,三人打的(机场大巴每人20元,打的划算共花费36元)直奔乌市,找了戊名要吃的大盘鸡、卡瓦斯美餐一顿再转回机场;终于在晚上0时前到了如家酒店,与青蛙汇合。此次骑行的四个队员全部见面了,于我,是初次见到他们三个南京哥。 4月27日,大家先去喀什火车站提车: 左起:戊名、青蛙、我、好人锅。 4个人骑着各自的战马,浩浩荡荡去采买物资。不想路上竟被一维族男子盯梢,联系近段喀什刚发生的几起血腥事件和敏感冲突,大家一时都有些紧张。山羊户外店的老板更是让我们直接报警(一路采买几经比较,喀什的几个户外店,山羊户外货全价廉)。几个人一合计,冒然报警无凭无据有些唐突,遂决定我和戊名一小组,先行冲出;好人锅和青蛙断后,负责掩护。于是紧张行动,嘿呀,一路急冲,结果回宾馆的路上两组人马绕岔了道,我和戊名在宾馆附近怎么也等不见好人锅和青蛙,担心老半天。好在有惊无险,都平安回到酒店。于是晚上也不敢出去乱溜达了,乖乖在房间睡觉。 反偷拍:一路跟踪我们的少年: 采买物资途中,青蛙剃度了:(此后青蛙哥的习惯动作就是摸光头!而好人锅则是有空就手机上网直线转播他的新藏线呵) 好人锅和戊名来之前就理成了短短的寸头,加上青蛙这个大光头,三个人互相炫耀着,害的我真想也剃个光头上路!羡慕嫉妒,只能将自己的一头长发剪成短马尾扎起来了事。 回到酒店,我们开始整理驮包和车,看着满地的物件,四人都感头大---竟然如此之多!三个男士照顾我,让我独自去一个房间整理,他们仨绊绊搭搭挤在一处整理。 我的物资来之前基本准备完善,采购极少,如何装备也大多是出发前就各有其位的,所以很快结束战斗。跑过去看他们三个,呵呵,热闹啊,房间简直象个大仓库了!堆的满地东西几乎无从下脚。 于是帮着打个下手,待得快整好了才想起,拍照留念! 戊名:心灵手巧,为人厚道,说话不多但总是为大家做的多。 正在用他换下来的旧外胎帮我做挡泥板,DIY的比买来的实用多了! 好人锅(右):勇敢乐观,有毅力、有智谋。我们此行的路书都是他辛苦整理,备用药品的方子也是他给的,多谢!!这家伙不想整那一大堆东西,不时嘻哈着两边房间视查,看大家都整的差不多了,才不得已地把自己那份也整了。采买的无人区备用20斤大米,大部分都被他塞进驮包了,连保温壶都塞满了! 青蛙:曾经是8年野战军的老兵,很有战斗力,体力好 心态好 dao嘴豆腐心,有时象英勇的战士有时却象个稚气未脱的孩子。大家的20个气罐,被他大包大揽地绑在车后,后来绑完看着那高耸的李行,我们三个无言…… 能干的青蛙在搓绳子,以应付那过于庞大的行李堆(青蛙面前,戊名的驮包已装整齐了,蛙哥的行李却还一大堆在窗根等绳子捆): 我只能自保,负担了自己的所有物资后加负了三个气罐。其它公用物资他们三个男士全包了。无言以谢。 背后那片建筑,是喀什的老城区: 喀什的公交车让我们大开眼界---- 竟然会按一个个详细地点送客到家!(没事闲逛还好,有事公交坐不得,太费时间)。所以我们三个从机场晃到酒店用时颇久,青蛙在酒店等我们等得都睡着了。 D1:4月28日,晴,喀什--英吉沙 ,全程柏油,骑行73km。 2011年4月28日,我们开始骑行的日子。 原计划从叶城G219 零公里处开始骑,后来大家整理完,看着那大大的行李包,一致决定从喀什开始骑。不论是队员之间、还是车、行李都需要磨合。 今天的骑行并不多,从喀什到英吉沙,70km的路(码表实际显示73km)。所以大家慢悠悠吃完早饭,又把昨天打包精减出来的行李到邮局寄走,11点半,才开骑。 喀什的如家酒店门外,四匹战马一溜排开,整装待发: 一路行来,照片繁多,除自己拍的,还有青蛙、好人锅、以及后来邂逅的袁鹏、五位自驾兄长等人所拍,恕不一一注,谢了! 戊名秀一个:好人锅也来秀一下:青蛙那一刻的片片竟然找不到,汗。 上315国道: 向英吉沙进军: 在路上,我们将生命绽放: 中午,新彊戈壁的地表温度有35--37度,很热。来这里前一周刚做过一个小手术(没跟队友们讲怕他们担心),有个把月没碰过车了,骑的有点累。晒的很厉害,发现之前怕太热而备用的网眼手套抗不住晒,手背都被晒得又疼又红了,青蛙把他的备用白线手套让我换上。 骑啊骑,又热又渴又累,突然发现一处小卖店,竟然还有绿色的树几棵,四人狂奔过去,乘凉、补水: 回复 军行天下 的帖子啊??我这里看到的图片,挺小。 第一次发贴,很多不太会操作,谅!我试试改 午饭在一小镇吃,青菜拉条子,份足味美价廉,可惜四人只顾说笑闹腾,忘了拍照。 烤羊肉串:卖相好,味道也不错。不过肉不是我的强项,一串便足矣。后来每人一个的羊肉包子,也贡献给了好人锅。 看到传说中的缸子肉(当时酷热,没食欲,更不知那就是大名鼎鼎的“缸子肉”。后来自驾大北线,与几位兄弟在阿里吃到,才知道。其貌不扬,但甚是美味!): 摆一张吧,骑了大半天了,挺累挺闷的。可怜好人锅,总是在为我们拍照,这一路摄影他最辛苦: 傍晚,英吉沙到了: 我们住了天府宾馆。本想宿县委宾馆,但有山东援藏的一大帮人包住,满了。 晚饭男生们一致提议不吃拉条子了,要吃川菜。呵呵这还没几天呢,就受不了啦。我倒无所谓,食物对我来说,挑剔极少。 这天晚上,听了青蛙的故事。很意外…… 今日亮点:出发前,好人锅因为我不肯听他的话好好吃药,大为光火。可是象锅那样没病也大把的吃药,让我和青蛙大为惊讶!什么“十全大补丸、六味地黄丸、板蓝根、21金维它……” 适当维生素补充还能接受,其它的药,对我这个平时极少用药的人,真是吃不下。为此锅很不高兴,拉着脸半天不搭理我。后来又训我“看你脸色腊黄的,一看就知道气血不足、营养不良!还不好好吃药,哼!”我哭笑不得,这只可恼又可爱的锅。他的口头禅就是:“没事就吃药哎”。戊名是好人锅的忠实听众,跟着大把吃药。青蛙则我行我素,几乎不吃药。 骑行新藏线,需要如此药补???不过,好人锅昨天晚上训我,让我出发前把他列出的药品清单补全,倒是真训对了。有两味药,后来还真救了我的急。 骑行新藏线,药品是应该备齐全点。 D2:4月29日,英吉沙--莎车,晴转大沙尘暴,戊名码表计算里程133公里,总耗时约12小时.骑行第二天,状态很差的一天。 今天的目的地是莎车,计划行程130km(实际码表显示近133km)。大家早早起床,洗漱早饭后准备出发,但戊名找不到宝贝香烟,要开拔了好人锅又死活找不见墨镜。折腾到9点也没找见,我们只得载着大驮包跟着好人锅满大街转想找个卖眼镜的店另买一副,可惜都没开门营业。他备用的那副又在驮包里面层层围困不好拿出。这个天府宾馆真是有问哦。眼看日已高升,今天路程还不少,惦着早出发早歇脚,于是停车从驮包里翻腾出自己的备用墨镜给锅,催他快出发。 四人依次排开,列队而行。我和戊名骑行在前,后来骑着骑着,拐个弯发现后面那俩人不见了!与戊名下车等,久候方至,原来好人锅看到了英吉莎的小 dao铺子,与青蛙挑选刀去了。当然也帮我和戊名各挑了一把。话说这英吉沙县位于新疆 塔里木盆地西部边缘,是著名的“中国小 dao之乡”也是“中国色买提杏之乡”、“中国达瓦孜之乡”。新疆有四大名刀,即英吉沙工艺小 刀、伊犁沙木萨克折dao、焉耆陈正套刀和莎车买买提折dao。 英雄爱宝刀,既然他俩是寻刀而去,回来还不忘我和戊名的份,嘿嘿,等就等了,这种等待可以有哈!等久点也没关系。反正出来是旅行,不是单纯为了傻骑车,这种民族特色的东西,早该好好品味一番,若不是时间限制,团队限制,估计我早跑去刀铺晃荡了…… 美滋滋地收好青蛙给的精美小 dao,这回我不傻往前冲了,省得有好玩的又落下,咱压阵!不紧不慢骑在队伍后面,和青蛙天南海北乱侃着,青蛙同学得了好刀也一路心花怒放的,不时还来点音乐,乐声下仍不忘刀长刀短的。不知不觉骑出老远 闲等两位寻宝刀的英雄时,给自己的坐骑留一张:此时它尚容光焕发,往后长路漫漫不知它会沧桑成何等模样啊 途经小店补水,此时四人尚衣帽光鲜、容光焕发,不久便一个个灰头土脸无一幸免了。 难得的一张全体合影:(看此时那特意选的宽松 速干裤在腿上直打晃荡,哪里想到半个月后竟然浮种到腿塞不进裤子,唉,失算呀!满以为骑新藏线会越骑越瘦身材更苗条,哪承想还有肥肿的象个非洲阿巴桑那一出!哈哈,好笑)民族团结,与维族朋友合张: 继续前行,到中午3点那阵(相当于北京时间1点左右,有2小时的时差)又困又累,越骑越觉得腿软,膝盖越来越痛,看好人锅、戊名早已护膝上腿,顾不得热捂,赶紧也把两副厚厚的护膝带上。路那么漫长无尽头、太阳那么晒、PP磨得好痛怎么骑都难受…… 青蛙本来是个骑行高手,让他这样慢悠悠地晒在大太阳下陪我,陪得他简直崩溃。于是换戊名来跟在我身后收尾,肯定跟的也很难受。虽然他俩都没说,但感觉到那种收队的痛苦,奈何俺那阵子就是蹬不动车,速度怎么也提不上来,还老想打盹瞌睡。 熬啊熬,总算到了克孜勒库尔干乡,吃午饭,借机缓一缓。发现维族人其实很爱干净,小小乡间餐厅卫生也蛮不错。 羊肉揪面片:(饭菜的片片,多出自好人锅和青蛙之手,俺是极少拍滴,只顾吃了嘿嘿) 饭后再往前骑不久,天色渐变,阳光没了,天空灰起来: 天更灰蒙,风大、沙重了,沙尘暴渐露狰狞: 大沙尘暴来了! 风越来越大,沙土满天飞,天空已成灰黄色,能见度不足百米,车辆都开着警示灯或大灯通行。青蛙看时间也不早了,行军速度太慢照此下去天黑前到不了目的地,于是发狠话:“20公里休息一次!不能再象前段那样每小时休息一次了。”言毕青蛙窜出去追好人锅和戊名去了,三个男生狂飙而去很快不见踪影,把我扔在后面也不管了(其实现在想来,是该这么扔一下,否则我还是不长进),之前跟我说的 什么二人小组 不抛弃不放弃也不执行了,任我独自在漫漫黄沙 天昏地暗中苦苦挣扎。从未带着大驮包骑行过的我,感觉那大大的驮包太重了,简直象个大称砣一样拖在身后!行李象背山越载越重,车蹬的几乎耗尽腿上所有力气,狂风刮得我脑子里呼呼轰鸣,四周一片迷茫不见天日。我拼力蹬啊蹬啊……身体很累,脑瓜却不停地东想西想 胡思乱想,思想这东西有时候真是害人。 等熬到到100公里4人汇合休息时,风沙略减,但大家还是不敢摘掉面巾,一张嘴说话嘴里就跑进沙子磕着牙,满鼻子的沙土味。籍着帽子面巾遮掩,不觉间泪湿蒙面围巾。一直低着头不出声,以为籍着帽沿蒙面围巾遮掩没人知道自己哭了,却还是被锅发现了。他坐来旁边,碰碰我的脚,平时一直吊儿浪当、冷嘲热讽的腔调突然变的很和气了:“姑娘,累了吧?围巾都湿了??没关系,慢慢骑,别心急……”心里一热,赶紧掩饰地笑笑,朗声答:“没事!放心吧。风沙太大迷眼了。”再望望四周,依旧漫天狂风大沙、昏天黑地,自己一个人孤零零漂在千里之外,与初识的三个陌生人累死累活行走在这异域边彊,累了痛了难过了都无从说,只能忍忍忍!想着突然悲从中来,不出声可眼泪刷刷流的更厉害,嘴唇快咬破了也止不住。车子加上大驮包 还是抵不住大风,被吹翻在地,也顾不上管,只是低着头流泪。三个男生被吓住了,不敢多说。青蛙过来跟我说话,我小心眼地恼着他,也不搭理。他只好默默地帮我扶起车子放好,坐在一边,不时扭头看过来 车子被大风吹倒了俺也不去管,只顾翘着二郞腿掉豆豆,青蛙去扶起俺可怜的战马:(当时不知坏心肝的锅竟然在偷拍此景,臭小子) 哭了一阵,感觉轻松多啦,大家也准备继续前行,还有40km路要赶,此时天已快黑。起身推起车子翻身骑上就往前冲,这一停一哭,倒把力气哭出来了。可能不适应期也过了,蹬的飞快,一路竟然3*6甚至3*7狂冲,把三个男生远远甩在后面。青蛙气喘喘地赶上来,跟我说话我还是不想出声,又很快超过自行远去,一个人在千里之外的大风沙中想东想西,边骑边哭……现在回想,惭愧又好笑,但当时却怎么也转不过弯来。 于是这剩下的40km,就在我的狂蹬中顺利结束---莎车 到了!晚上21点许,比预计的提前了一个多小时。 事实证明,当时青蛙的决策是完全正确的。否则我们还不知要在黑夜中的沙尘暴里苦累到什么时候才能歇下,更甚者那种天气夜晚行车危险因素多多。 事实还证明,人都是有潜力的,需要适当激发。熬过那100公里,后面的40公里俺竟然载着大驮包骑的飞快ye!呵呵 莎车到了:(坐会吧,骑累了也哭累了) 这天,对每个队员都是一个适应吧,载重、大沙尘暴,一个个象土人似的折腾了一整天。入住好人锅早打听好的 德隆大酒店,条件很是不错,惜无电梯,一楼亦无房,只好把车连驮包一起扛上二楼去---青蛙是主力军。 事后青蛙哥讲:骑车没骑累,那几趟扛车可是真累趴了!呵呵大伙一致提议出去喝一杯,犒劳一下大沙尘暴。 今天骑行约8小时,从出发到入住总耗时12小时。今日亮点:1、大驮包+大戈壁+大沙尘暴,别样味道、别样体验。 2、漫天狂风沙中,边哭边骑,回想真好笑。 自己的摊子还是自己收吧。自那一哭后,开始发飙,结伴同骑的13天每骑必在前,不再落后拖大家。 回复 心灵孤旅 的帖子曾与好人锅同行半个月,后来的流浪日子,便是自己独行乱闯了,见笑 到莎车已是暮色深沉,人困马乏并未夜游,第二天一早又急着赶路,也未能将她的芳容细赏,留下遗憾,给下次再去一个借口吧。 莎车县居住着莎车古国先民的后裔,他们注定与音符有关,与木卡姆结缘。因为有河的存在;也因为有沉默巍峨的喀喇昆仑山,河、山、平原、峡谷这些刚烈的灵魂与柔弱的水交织在一起,就有了木卡姆与阿曼尼沙汗怀抱的那把都塔尔。在莎车有名的十二木卡姆广场,矗立着这位酷爱音乐、拯救木卡姆命运的传奇女子阿曼尼沙汗的雕像,它已经成为一种象征,也是莎车县的地性建筑。莎车在年轮奏响的序曲里,拖拽着叶尔羌汗国的灵动音符,哪怕在莎车缓慢地踱一会步,隐约而又清晰的“十二木卡姆”曲调随时都会传入耳膜。 深夜,窗外依旧有音符飞扬着,使人们有恍若隔世的感觉。 洗去沙尘躺在床上,我早忘了白天的苦痛,又沉浸在对明天旅程的期盼中。一如 诗人纳瓦依所作:“芳容乍睹,就使我一见倾心;做你情人,无疑灾难缠身。多少次我决心对你断绝痴念,可日复一日对你更为痴心(节选自十二木卡姆第二套.小赛勒克)。 ”是呵,对于旅行,我又何尝不是一见倾心,爱到极深;虽然时有苦痛缠身,却,日复一日,对它更加痴心…… D3:4月30日,莎车--叶城,晴,沙尘暴转小有风,今天实际骑行戊名码表计骑行74公里 从莎车到叶城的骑行,相比昨天轻松多了。 四个人睡到自然醒,起来看天,沙尘暴转小,也没什么大逆风,由莎车县至泽普县再至叶城县仅约70公里,全程柏油,海拔较平无大幅上升下降,大家心里都很轻松。磨蹭到上午近10点才吃好早餐,好人锅宣布再睡个回笼觉!我和青蛙睡不着便开始整行李,鉴于我昨天的表现,青蛙不声不响拿走了我缚在驮包外的帐篷和3个气罐,至此,20个备用气罐全在青蛙的车上载着。没过几天翻达坂的时候,青蛙又把我的备用外胎绑在了他的高高的一堆行李上。帐篷和外胎这一绑,就帮我载到了阿里!四个人里,经常和我吵架拌嘴甚至翻脸的是青蛙,但帮我最多的,也是青蛙。 四人不紧不慢 一番磨蹭直至12点半光景才出发。自昨日那一场大风沙,那一哭后,俺气力大发,一路3·7档位甚至3·8档位骑过来,很少变换其它档位,真有‘风飞扬’之势哈,害的戊名他们狂追不及,又不放心我一人跑在前,冲我叫停了好几次!(当然俺也知道长途骑行这种骑法不可取,偶尔为之吧) 先经泽普县,再到叶城: 初时尚有小风沙迷漫 : 后来便晴空万里了: 泽普到了:([]
证:两个月准备的证,美国需要面。 车 住 票:提前定好所有的住行还有各类门票。wifi:淘宝上租用的。游玩地:因为只有8天时间主要在洛杉矶和拉斯维加斯游玩天气:洛杉矶在六月初的时候,早晚温差大,早上可以穿薄外套,拉斯维加斯非常炎热而且干燥,注意防晒和补水。防晒推荐水宝宝。插头:美国的插头和国内一样无需转换。支付:有些地方刷不了银联,带Visa或者master卡还是很有必要的。食物:不用担心食物不习惯很多中餐馆和中国超市购物:洛杉矶到拉斯维加斯途中有间洛杉矶最大的折扣店,买coach和MK尤其便宜,其他品牌也非常低折扣。如果这里购物不满足可以到拉斯维加斯的折扣店购买。 gogogo,粗发啦,国航的大灰机,比上次去欧洲飞14个小时的舒服多了对于长途灰机,自带双拖鞋很有必要,不过你是Vip或者其他航空公司有提供就另当别论了。小伙伴们,洛杉矶见。11个小时45分钟…一直在天上…呜啊…娘亲喂,才灰了一半哭,尼玛,十二个小时,姐终于到了…给个free wifi行不行?来个街景吧尼玛,劳资终于到酒店了,灰12个小时,木有睡啊!头疼!头晕!还要坚持最少六个小时啊!来一趟米国我容易吗!介就是传说中的时差!!中国城无处不在偶遇拍婚纱照的新人迪斯尼音乐剧院嘻嘻!哈哈一个广场,竟然说这一带是人口比较集中的地带,泥煤啊,人呢?来个城市速写吧被轰吹乱头发滴吕子扮小清新拍照就是镜头你在或者不在那里,我都不看你农夫广场这是都出来过六一儿童节的节奏?尼玛,这才来第一天就进入购物状态,这后面咋整!湖人队(Lakers)及快艇队(Clippers)主场体育馆诺基亚广场俺不懂篮球…所以认识的人不多…([]
