我有些照片想和大家分享交流一下.我在2009年花了五个月一个星期的时间从乔治亚州的SPRINGER MT.背包徒步到缅因州的MT. KATAHDIN.完成全程共2,178英里, 或3,500公里, 越过十四个州.我拍了4,500多张的照片, 主要做个实地记录.因为东西太多, 人太懒, 除了原始每天的起末点外, 没作任何笔录, 所以文字说明就免了.但每个文件名都有日期和地点的对应.不过抱歉它们都是英文的.因图片储存的服务器在异地, 如果网络连接效果不好, 我也不打算再在这里上载了.若有问或高见, 我以后再一一回答和请教.2009 美国阿帕拉契亚小道直通背包徒步另外, 我还有其它几个影集顺便一起附上.希望不使大家失望. 我忘了附上一张全程示意图.我一直忙着科罗拉多小道,把先发的帖子给忘了。雨天看窗服!这么长距离开车都觉得累-是的,当我做完的时候,人非常的累。我的体重掉了20多斤,回去后3个星期里,走起路来浑身疼。雨天看窗下次可以end2end洛基山脉 -给你猜对了一半。方向大概一样,地点可能稍有不同,但资金是关键。大东从“科罗拉多小道”找过来的,稍后慢慢再看。谢谢分享!-这过程太长,同时既然要做,就要比上次做的好。我恐怕在最近的将来找不出时间来完成。我最近把2009年背包徒步的原始照片又重新看了一遍,对其中一些具有代表性和我喜欢的作了处理,上载到8264我的相册里。现在觉得手上有点时间,而且以前几位8264的朋友鼓励我将编辑出以与大家分享。我原本在徒步时并没有任何要发表游记或功略的打算,只是想尽可能多地记录下自己所经历过的,所看到的一切,给自己以后一个回忆的依据。在背包徒步中,由于前后时间太长,即使后来比较好的景色很快地便成了所谓的"审美疲劳"的产品,再加上按时完成旅途的压力,和天气等的原因,相当多的日子里,照片不是被疏忽了,便是寥寥无几。我的笔录除了每天的所到之处外,几乎没有任何其它的记录。我所能叙述的都靠回忆了,并且这也不是我的擅长。敬请谅解。阿帕拉契亚小道的全称为阿帕拉契亚山国家景观小道。它座落在美国大陆的东部,以乔治亚州的Springer Mountain为南端起点,贯穿14个州,直到在缅因州的北端终点,Mount Katahdin。小道全长约2181英里(3510公里,2011年更新),通过乔治亚州,北卡罗来纳州,田纳西州,韦吉利亚州,西韦吉利亚州,马里兰州,宾夕法尼亚州,新泽西州,纽约州,康奈迪克州,麻萨诸塞州,佛蒙特州,新汉普什尔州,和缅因州。阿帕拉契亚小道。阿帕拉契亚小道以相同的平面比例覆盖在中国地图上。阿帕拉契亚小道沿线的主要城市。这个基本由人类设想,人工刻意开辟的小道现由30个左右,当地小道俱乐部来维护,并受国家公园事务处(National Park Service),和非盈利性组织,阿帕拉契亚小道保护协会(Appalachian Trail Conservancy)的管理。其中参预的人员大部为自愿者。平时运作的资金来源于国家的预算,非盈利性经营,和各种捐款等。阿帕拉契亚小道最初在上个世纪的二十年代由几位先贤设想,与无数的参预者一起,克服重重困难,在短短的十几年中建成了绵延数千公里的贯通小道。小道的地势呈两端高耸,且较荒芜。而中段却与人类的居住与文明非常的接近。其最高点在北卡罗来纳州与田纳西州州界上的Clingmans Dome,6643英尺(或海拔2025米);最低处在纽约州的哈得逊河旁的熊山动物园内,只有124英尺(或海拔38米)。小道可以处在半径几百英里人烟罕见之地;也可以离纽约市只有34英里。小道沿线的植物种类繁多,温带的不说,阿尔卑斯型的高山,甚至所谓北极圈内型的植被都能见到。动物包括熊,郊狼,鹿,麋鹿,短尾山猫,猞狸,森林响尾蛇,等等。阿帕拉契亚小道的平面方向记为一白色的,5x15cm的漆印。一般在小道两侧的树上,面对南面和北面两个方向。沿线有共有250个左右的临时居住木屋,和营地,其中极少数是要付费的;而在此之外,更多的则是任意和免费的空间,只要符合管理当局的规定和遵守一般的露营常识就可以了。除去北端的一些地区外,大部分的小道均与道路交通线相交,走全线的背包徒步者大概隔每三,四天就可以由此进市镇去休息整理,补充给养等。这个小道原本的思路不是为了徒步者一个季节,一次走完。但"贯通型"的徒步却被视为最终极的方式。由于地理,气候,伤病,和时间等的原因,使得能在一个季度里完成全程3500公里的背包徒步成为非常的困难。在上个世纪,从起点登记上路的统计算起,通常完成全程的人只有10~15%。但在2000年以后,此成功率达到近30%左右。可能是由于网络媒介的传播发展,背包徒步的资料充足,及装备理念的更新导致了这种现象。一般一个徒步者要花上4~6个月左右的时间走完全程。基于开始时间和地点的不同,徒步者的行进方向可分为从南向北,或由北朝南,或分段跳跃似的,或从中间向两头去,或从两头往中间走。启程晚的徒步者在后期阶段,面临的可能已经是大雪覆盖地面的冬天了。阿帕拉契亚小道保护协会(Appalachian Trail Conservancy)对完成3500公里的阿帕拉契亚小道全程的背包徒步者作出统计,无论他们是一年内做完,还是分十年,二十年做完。背包徒步者必须要基于个人的诚信,如实地向其协会提出申请。从有史记载以来一共有一万两千多人完成了全程的徒步,包括一人完成多次的,一人分若干年完成的。。。我所知道的Warren Doyle16次走完全程,还有其他很多走完多次的人。我本人用了五个月另一个星期从开始到结束,包括相对长时回家处理事务和生病的时间。全世界从1936年起至今完成全程3500公里徒步人的总数,共一万两千多人(次?)。我名字在2009年完成全程3500公里徒步人的名单上。倒数第六。2009年4月29日当日起点 North Plainfield, NJ次日终点 Gainesville, GA距旅途终点Mt.

Katahdin 2167.1 英哩(3486.9 公里)里程数 11.2 英哩 (18.0 公里)天气 多云到阴图中两红点之间为我今天所走的路程。我于2009年4月29日下午离开了纽瓦克的Penn Station,搭上南行的Amtrak火车,经过16个小时的缓慢行驶,于第二天的早上7点左右到达了位于乔治亚州的Gainesville。我走之前与那里的一个运载背包徒步者的人,Dave联系好,付钱让他把我送到离小道南边终端两英里的一个垭口。我从那儿再返回向南端,正式开始这3500公里的徒步。我在垭口停车场旁的留影,两小时后我从最南端开始徒步,又重新回到此地,向北行进。从我此时的体型上可以看出多年办公室生活的痕迹,虽并不太差,但与我在结束时相比,却有着很大的区别。向南的阿帕拉契亚小道。此段我要走两次。因为我若直接上最南端,要经过一段8英里的爬升,因上路晚,时间紧,所以多花点钱,让Dave把我送到更容易些开始徒步的公路旁。Springer Mountain,乔治亚州,阿帕拉契亚小道的南端终点。向南看去,仍然是一片群山,但延伸到阿拉巴马州时,便成为丘陵与平原了。阿帕拉契亚小道南端终点的纪念铭牌。在石头上放着的是长途背包徒步者到册子,一般的情况下,藏在下面的石缝里,以避风雨。这个资料由当地的俱乐部收藏。我才到阿帕拉契亚小道的南端终点便遇见一位背包客。我们相互介绍自己,知道彼此也做同样的事情。他的名字叫,John,来自佛蒙特州。在以后的近十天里,我们在一起徒步,露营,和进城休息。他替我拍了这几张照片。我坐在阿帕拉契亚小道南端终点的纪念铭牌旁。我们遇见一位当地徒步俱乐部小道维护者。他的户外名字叫,"Many Sleeps",年龄74岁了,晚上就在附近露营,直到休息日。他的主要任务为监测小道的状况,向徒步者提供各种信息,与政府管理机构联系沟通等。他是阿帕拉契亚小道社区的名人,真是老当益壮!这3500公里的直通背包徒步就这样地开始了,万里长征的第一步。我的基本信念是无论走多远,多么枯燥无味,走一步,就离终点少一步。没有太多可以去想的。在四月底,海拔高度1300米的山区已经看见树枝发芽了。但今后若干星期后在更高的高度上,季节似乎有所返回。小道旁的树干上清楚可见白色的方向记。我经过几乎一天的长途火车与汽车旅行,无法好好地休息,人现相当疲劳。以后的几个小时的路程,路况十分的良好,非常平整,上下起伏也很小。乔治亚州的小道给我的影响很好,主要是来自于当地徒步俱乐部的贡献。小道利用一个旧的山区简易公路。我在倒卧的树干补充了一些能量。我今天并没有与John约好一起徒步。这只是在途中两人相遇,我给他拍的照。他以后一段与我在一起的时间里用大卡车约翰,"Big Truck Johnny"的别名,直到他的女儿厌倦了父亲在外徒步"不顾家"的行为,给他起了个别名,"懒驴"。他告诉我他目前没有业务,有四个月的时间,想用背包徒步来减轻体重,但也想走完全程。我坦率地告诉他,这四个月的时间对他这样从没有背包徒步,体力不在最佳状况的人来讲很紧。他也同意走到哪儿就到哪儿。我从中午时分开始便开始听到山脚下连续的枪击声。我很早以前就知道,在这段小道附近的山下为美国陆军精锐的特种作战部队,Army Ranger,的基地或训练营地。估计蓝博属于此类。平民徒步者有时能在附近的小道上碰见路过的正在训练的士兵。我身旁的枪声连续了好几个小时,体现了一个军事大国的经济实力。我想这山叫,Hawk Mountain。陆军巡游兵的基地就在其下面。天虽然还不太晚,但我昨天的几乎一天的旅途使我感到相当的疲劳。与"大卡车约翰",及另一个背包客聊过后,就在一个已经建立的营地上安营扎寨。而他们却继续前进,准备再走4个英里,在一个避难所过夜。我的吊床。它的特点是体积小,重量轻,但舒适程度差,空间小。我在天转热后便放弃使用它,而用普通落地帐篷。由于这里是野外,理论上有熊及其它动物的出现,所以食物袋要高悬在树枝上。夜里事与愿违,"大卡车约翰"第二天告诉我,半夜里一架Army Ranger的直升机进行空降训练,正好在他露营的小溪上空,探照灯把附近照个雪亮,徘徊不走,吓得他不轻,半天没有睡好觉。我这儿却什么都没有听见。夜里飘有零星小雨,还不能真正检验我的吊床防雨的功能。 2009年5月1日当日起点 Sassafras Mountain, GA, AT M.

Katahdin 2151.3 英哩 (3461.4 公里)里程数 15.8 英哩 (25.4 公里)天气 多云到阴图中两红点之间为我今天所走的路程。阿帕拉契亚小道经过许多国家和州立公园和保护地。这里的蓝岭与我后来见的蓝岭不知是否有关系。我一早离开营地,路过"大卡车约翰"的营地,他正好要开拔。于是我们聊了起来,因为明天就要暂时离开小道去补充给养,处理个人事宜,所以决定一起行走。我在小道上。乔治亚的平整地段,徒步起来的确相当舒适。小道就是沿着山脊,但并不是每个山头都去,而且放坡也很缓和。由于森林火灾,小道旁被烧毁的林子。沿着等高线或缓慢放坡的小道。由于土质的关系,走上去相当的舒服。来到Woody Gap,Woody垭口。回望走过的小道。在这个季节里,山区的水汽十分的充足,而且地表的温度相对较高。水汽在升入天空后,遇到冷空气,便形成降雨,这样的循环往复,造成雨天联绵不断。上午走过的群山。疲惫的"大卡车约翰"和我借着一个观景点,坐下休息。他一直夸赞我的体力比他好。我了解到他的祖上两辈均在纽约市作港口的引水员,有法国和德国的血统。而他现在为独立的承包商,住在佛蒙特州。我的自拍。大山虽然绝对海拔不高,但不断的上上下下,可以使人很疲惫。天空开始下起间断小雨。给才上路后不久的我一个心理上的小小冲击。在乔治亚州段的舒适的小道。雨过后,天空似乎在放晴。"大卡车约翰"和我在小道旁发现了一个营地。我们虽然知道避难所离这儿不太远,但大家都累了,懒得再多走几步,就决定在此搭营,明天上路也快。不过在后来取水的时候,我们俩还是去那避难所走了一趟,遇见了我在最后一天的徒步中仍然在一起的"萤火虫",一个来自明尼苏达,但以前在佛罗里达工作的女孩。我在徒步的第二天与"萤火虫"相见,途中几千公里,我们碰到好多次,在最后的一天我们在北端终点见了最后一面。我们从没有相约一同背包徒步,因为她是个很独立的人,而且我个把星期以后就"单飞"了。他们以后也曾邀请我一同徒步,但被我谢绝了,我想要更多的自由和速度。"大卡车约翰"在建立他的营地。那么大的个子,却住在相当小的帐篷里,为减轻负重,但晚上肯定不舒服。我的吊床。夜里雷雨交加,闪电呈各种颜色,就在头顶很近的地方,我唯恐会被雷击。所以露宿在山顶上不是件好事。这个经验我永远记住,除非我确信天气,和风景特好。2009年5月2日当日起点 Woods Hole Shelter, GA, AT M.

Katahdin 2147.3 英哩 (3455.0 公里)里程数 3.7 英哩 (6.0 公里)天气 阴今天的路程。昨晚的雷暴雨给我带来了两个在户外重要的信息。除非万不得已,天气不好的时候,特别在夏天,不要在山脊或山顶上露营,避免遭雷击;再是我的吊床,在风雨交加的时候,顶棚里面难免遭受雨水的侵袭,不是一个最佳的户外住所的选择。早上离开营地不久,便开始爬升。现在看来并没有什么,但当时经过几天辛苦的徒步,倒觉得挺吃力的。小道渐渐地上升,我可以看到Blood Mountain了。在接近Blood Mountain避难所前的一张多幅连拼。面对西面。"大卡车约翰"替我拍的。据他自己讲,他根本不会照相。我当时也的确担心没有结果。"大卡车约翰"。我拍摄的就大不相同,信心很高,哈。。Blood Mountain Shelter,一个几乎没有人敢在里面过夜的避难所。倒不是因为它有点陈旧,和失修,而是在它周围的故事传说。当年这一带居住着两个印第安人的部落联盟,以这里山脊为界。但不知为何引起双方的战事,彼此在此山头上争夺撕杀,弄得个血流遍地,这山头因此而得名。Blood Mountain两侧的景色。阳光透过云层,给我以短暂的希望。这里的有许多观景点。我感到有点兴奋,一生中很少看到过如此连绵起伏的群山。一张多幅连拼。"大卡车约翰"与我在此简短休息后,便下山,准备进城休息,补充给养了。在下山的途中我们赶上了"萤火虫",她因为经验不足,鞋子选择不当,给她的脚带来巨大的麻烦。我在这几天内也尽我所能给"大卡车约翰""灌输"一些户外装备和背包徒步的小常识。他很感谢我,说我为他的老师。但他不久就琢磨出应该怎样做很多事了。我们下山后来到今天的小道徒步终点,一个垭口,Neels Gap;和所经的公路,US 19&129。 这个垭口附近有个户外店。一般没有多少阿帕拉契亚小道长途背包徒步经验的人,经过几天的徒步,都会被建议或体会出,要在此更换或更新他们的装备。我与"大卡车约翰"说过,棉布的牛仔裤不能用于户外。他根据我的其它一些建议,将不必要的东西请那店帮忙寄回家去。在此之前,"大卡车约翰"与一个经营住宿的营地主联系好,让他开车过来接我们,其中包括至今一直独立行走的"萤火虫"。那户外店旁一个小客栈。我们嫌它过于简单,拥挤,而选择了较贵的木屋营地。我后来一直延用这样的做法,经过几天辛苦的跋涉,宁愿多花点钱,独自安稳的休息和恢复体力最要紧。负面的效应,钱包瘪下去地更快了。我以后若有这样的背包徒步,无论经济情况如何,我会选择这简单的客栈,因为可以见到更多类似于我这样的背包客,大家更容易彼此交流,联络感情。"萤火虫"与我与相互拍照。我在知道她的小道名以前,曾想过给她起个有中国味的,叫"豆芽菜"的名字,但后来很长时间没能见到她,无法告诉她。一个在大学学心理,后来从事于辅导不良少年工作的年轻女子。只听说她曾多次带那些少年进入户外的环境,想用自然的力量感化,纠正他们,因此自己也想多一些的户外经验。在等车来接我们去木屋营地。右边的是"萤火虫";而前面打电话的是一个从事运输业的独立经营人,一个乔治亚州带有印第安人血统的人,"冰雹"。 他选择了今晚呆在那个小客栈。被遗弃的徒步装备。可看出徒步者对它们的感情是如此的仇恨。木屋营地的主人,Bill终于把我们带到了独立的木屋。这里面有厨房,卫生间,客厅与饭厅,卧室连在一起。我们个人个占一间木屋,每晚。由于体力消耗很大,食物补充不很及时,我才进来时感到有点寒冷,但出乎我意料之外,屋里有暖气设施,室温不久就上去了。这木屋一般供短期度假,户外,及打猎等的家庭使用。他们可以在里面生火做饭,只要另付几块钱就可以了。应该说是经济实惠的。何况还是热水澡洗。我原本带了一套处理蛇咬的工具,但估计不会有太大的用场,就留在了这里。"大卡车约翰"的木屋。我们清理完毕后,准备请Bill开车把我们三人送到靠近的小城,Blairsville去就餐,和购买食物。"萤火虫"的屋子在山坡底下。Blairsville的超市,Ingles门口的停车场。那饮料看来是"大卡车约翰"最喜欢的。我们三人在购买晚徒步食品后,去了一家自助餐去改善下。"萤火虫"和"大卡车约翰"。饭饱后,我们走到市中心,给Bill打了个电话,等他来接我们。我们则闲着无聊,四处逛悠。当时在市中心有个旧车展。我买了一袋土豆片,大家分享一下。"萤火虫"和"大卡车约翰"。我,"Highway Man"与"大卡车约翰"。我的小道名望文生义的话,就有点不切了。我想这是Blairsville市的市政厅。我们回到了Bill的木屋营地,还有很多时间,便去他的接待厅看看电视,也好知道未来几天的天气。我以后在背包徒步中一直有这样的习惯,在市镇里歇脚时了解未来的天气,以掌握节奏和主动,直到最后太习惯于各种的恶劣天气,才不太介意了。([]

周围的白色小巷,荷兰还有白色的郁金香,有种颜色就叫做荷兰白。旁边的农贸市场我们在这片房屋的某扇窗户里,留下过一夜的足迹,这座积木搭建的城市叫着马六甲。 吸引我的不是风景,而是我们曾经来到过这里,感受过这里的烈日和海风。 圣保罗山上的圣地亚哥城堡是马六甲三最重最坚固的城堡,为16世纪初期的葡式建筑物,号称东南亚最大和最坚固的城堡。这座城堡依山而筑、地势险要、全部用巨石砌成,并且用葡萄牙的保护神——圣地亚哥来命名。这座最坚固的城堡在150多年内经受了许多次攻击都岿然不动,最后,英国人只好用重炮彻底摧毁了这座宁死不屈的石头城。现在,只剩下一座城门幸免于难,当地人把它称作“没有墙的城门”。城堡被当地人视为马六甲的精神象征。幸存的古城门是一座西欧式的古代建筑,城门上雕刻着粗犷的图案,顶端还有一座长形的小拱门,好象头上戴了一顶帽子。右边的炮楼保存至今。城门内有个地洞,据说这条地下通道可直通山顶。感谢上帝,我们这次旅程一切都被你安排妥当,指引我走上寻求真理和自由的天路,异国他乡到处有你的存在,见证着你的旨意,阿门。 无意中照到这一家三口,后来和我们一起去的车站。 从这里转乘火车才能到达市中心([]

行走萨珈玛塔之路,是每个徒步爱好者的终极梦想.在珠峰南坡看珠峰:[ ]尼泊尔是个多山的国家,世界上没有第二个国家有尼泊尔这样得天独厚的条件:世界上海拔8000米的10座山峰里,在尼泊尔境内,可以看到8座。在不到150公里的范围内, 海拔高度从60米陡然攀升到世界最高峰沿喜玛拉雅南麓,你可以欣赏到最壮观的四季垂直景观,许多的登山和徒步者每年乐此不彼的来到喜玛拉雅山脚下,为自己的梦想去征服一座又一座的雪山……[ ]每年,有超过25000人的欧美以及日韓人士踏上这条小路,在近珠峰大本营的小旅店挂滿世界各地徒步驴的留名.这个行程海拔从2800米到5500米,萨珈玛塔在尼语中的意思是"从陆地到海洋"或者"世界之颠"的意思,在这里,这个名字就代表你将从开满鲜花的林地穿越美丽的村庄和山间小路走向冰雪晶莹的世界之巅!走EBC本来是去年的计划,多种原因未果,08年,我的萨珈玛塔之路终于成行.从加德满都到LUKLA,可以乘小型飞机,机票价格200美金,LUKLA是此次徒步线路的起点,在这里可以找到背夫(兼向导),从LUKLA往北有三个山谷通往Everest(备注.在尼泊尔,珠峰有3个名字:Everest,Chomolungma,Sagarmatha,而Everest是最常用的),主要的景点都集中在这不同的三条山谷 Gokyo, Kala Pathar,Chukung.其中最流行的是走 Kala Pathar,位于EBC附近此次,我只走了两条沟Kala Pathar和Chukung,时间是8天上,4天下,并且记录了有关功略.线路特点:1,从低海拔向高海拔缓慢过度,大部分人可以很快适应; 2,每天雪山伴着你徒步,可以看见8000米以上的雪山有珠峰、洛子峰、卓奥友、马卡鲁。 3,路非常成熟,每走1-2小时都有住宿点,有花园,有雪山,有热茶和咖啡; 4,夏尔巴背夫忠诚,而且能吃苦耐劳,有些背夫甚至可以说上一口流利的英语,今年的价格每天5-10美金; 5,自然的美景+独特的人文给这条线带来更加神奇的色彩; 6,难度并非想象的那么大,12天里,上升的8天里,我每天的徒步时间没有超过6小时的;[ ]我的12天EBC的行程:这些英文的地点可能你会看了头发昏,没有去之前,我也是 ;P ,但是,当我回头看这些陌生而又熟悉的地方时,常常有些感动在心中,这些地名已经不是单纯的一个个符号,它们象一组一组的电影里的长镜头,虽已远去,却历久长新。。。。D1,加德满都机场——LUKLA(鲁克拉)(2840米)---—Thado Koshi Gaon(2800)午餐—Phakding(2610米)(徒步3小时,准-,海拔略有下降) D2,Phakding(2610米)-----—Monjo(2840) 午餐---—Namche Bazar(3440米)(徒步5小时,上升800米,准+) D3,Namche(3440米)-----Everest View Hotle (3926)---- Namche(3440米)(徒步3小时,D4, Namche(3440米)------Phunki Tenge(3250)(午餐) ---- Tengpoche(3860米)(徒步6小时,上升1000米,准+) D5,Tengboche(3860米)---Shomare(4250)(午餐)---------Dingboche(4410米)(徒步5小时,上升800米,准) D6, Dingboche(4410)---Chhukhung(4750)(徒步5小时,上升1000米,准+)----- Dingboche(4410)D7,Dingboche(4410)——Duglha4620(午餐)-——Lhobuche(4910)(徒步5小时,上下820米,准+) D8,Lhobuche(4910)-----Gorak Shep(5200米) (午餐)——EBC(珠峰大本营,5364米)——Gorak Shep(5200米)——(徒步8小时,爬升500米,挑战) D9, Gorak Shep(5200米)——Kala Patthar(5600米)——Gorap Shep(5140米)早餐------ Lhobuche(4910) (午餐)----Pheriche(4280) (徒步6小时,下降)D10, Pheriche(4280)------ Tengboche(3860米)------ Namche(3440米)(下降)D11,Namche(3440米)----- Phakding(2610米)(下降)D12, Phakding(2610米)---------- LUKLA(鲁克拉)(2840米)---—加德满都机场(下降)[ ]证北京,上海,拉萨,香港均可办理,今年起证按不同的停留时间15天、30天、60天收费不等. 30天的证费是280元。我的证是在拉萨办理的,周一递材料(填一个申请表格,2张照片),周三就可以拿。很方便。货币:樟木口岸1:11,加都1:10.45,徒步的孔布地区只能换到18.5. 在加都的泰木尔区有很多外汇兑换点,很方便;不要担心有假币,到目前为止还木有听说过有假币之说;用电 加都的所有酒店使用的电源插座都是英式的,所以带上220V圆柱两相或三项插座是必须的;EBC的路上,只有很少的点可以提供充电的地方,海 拔越高,充电的费用越贵,每小时300卢比左右;所以如果你是个色友,带足相机电池,是你必须做到的,以免不测。线路特点 1,从低海拔向高海拔缓慢过度,大部分人可以很快适应;2,每天雪山伴着你徒步,可以看见8000米以上的雪山有珠峰、洛子峰、卓奥友、马卡鲁。3,路非常成熟,每走1-2小时都有住宿点,有花园,有雪山,有热茶和咖啡;4,尔巴背夫忠诚,而且能吃苦耐劳,有些背夫甚至可以说上一口流利的英语,今年的价格每天5-10美金;5,自然的美景+独特的人文给这条线带来更加神奇的色彩;6,难度并非想象的那么大,12天里,上升的8天里,我每天的徒步时间没有超过6小时的; [ ]加都有很多旅行社提供登山服务,包括向导,背夫,出住等一条龙服务,但是这些保姆式的服务主要是针对那些喜欢FB游的客人,费用也比较贵!如果想真正体验行走喜玛拉雅的快乐,还是自己自助。省钱不说,重要是体验自由自在的行走给你带来的那种快乐![ ]来到NAPAL到了樟木,过了友谊桥的中间那条线,那就意味着进入NAPAL了。 穿过混乱拥堵的桥头之后,立刻汇入了尼人的洪流,口岸的贸易看来很不错。走了大约5-6分钟,进到尼国的入关办公室,一个看上去就不怎么让人喜欢的人开口就索汇--200尼,大概合人民币也就20元不到,来之前在网上看到功略说可以不给,因为这个属于非正常收费。进去之前,我就打定主义要据理以争。 SO,当那个留小胡子的男人说了200元之后,我立刻回绝,对他说:对不起,办理入关手续是你的职责,请不要滥用你的职权乱收费。他很惊讶的看着我,似乎不敢相信。旋即,他就耸耸肩,说了句:OK。就准备和我耗下去了。和我一起包车来樟木的几个人都以一副很配合的姿态缴了这200尼,并且很快办好了入关手续,只剩下我一个人和他们对恃。时间已经是中午了,到加都也是要几个人一起包车比较合算,眼争争的看着他们在等着我,没有办法,只好妥协。200尼是小事,很气不过这样的官员这样FB。 一个人500尼,谈好价格后,我们搭上了一个小皮卡,前往加得满都。樟木公安检查站樟木远眺。过了这里就进入NEPAL了[ ]4个小时的车程,终于到达加都。拥挤,喧闹,是加都给我的第一印象。按照LP上的指引,来到龙游背包客栈。间500尼网上介绍说是中国的背包客大多选择此地逗留.一个很安静的小院子,活指望能在这里拼到中国人一起走EBC,但是根本没有见到一个中国人 墙上写着大大中国字,但是前台的人依然一个中文也不会说,郁闷 [ ]龙游的第一个晚上,卫生间地漏有点不通,洗澡的时候水漫金山,而且晚上遭遇停电。 这在加都是司空见惯的事情. 加都给我的感觉象回到了小时候的故乡, 窄窄的街道,拥挤的楼房,很陈旧的气息弥漫在周围,当听着陌生的语言,汇入满街的尼人的洪流中的时候,才真正意识到,我已经身处异乡! 龙游的房顶成了我悠闲打发时间的好地方 [ ]泰米尔区是加都区的外国人聚集地,购物方便,有很多特色的手工艺品店。第二天实在是忍受不了龙游的昏暗和下水道不通,决定搬到“北京饭店”。“北京饭店”很不错,是一对中国夫妇开的,24小时热水,很干净。间600尼哦。一楼有个餐厅,可以吃到正宗的中国菜,这一点很令人开心!在北京饭店把去LUKLA的往返机票定好,200美金(旺季价,淡季170美金左右),回程是OPEN的。下午采购了一点山上的食物,然后去杜巴广场逛了一圈。杜巴广场,加都于我只是匆匆的路过,因为拼不到一起去LUKLA的人,我只有自己一个人前往LUKLA。北京饭店的潘老板对我自己一个人走EBC很反对,他说一个人去博卡拉没有关系,因为去博卡拉的人比较多,相对线路成熟些,但是我的假期已经快结束了,而且EBC是我这次出行的最终目的地,所以不想放弃!下午抽空给中国大使馆的郭主任打了一个电话,郭主任的想法和老潘一样,劝我还是小心一点,我道了谢,报了护照号码,并且留下了国内家里的电话。晚上把上山不需要的东西在北京饭店寄存,预约了morning call.重新把包包打好,离开拉萨藏式酒店时,店主送的哈达被我系在了包包上,希望自己一路平安。出发的那个早晨,4点30分就起床了,一脸的凝重[ ]凌晨的加德满都机场,准备飞往LUKLA,徒步的起点。一个中国人也没有看到,问了一圈,没有和我一样行程的,看来只要到LUKLA再说了。[ ]在机场,和一个英国人聊天,发现他们都在加都办了登山许可证,而我在网上得到的消息,在徒步的第二天,可以在萨珈玛塔公园大门入口处办理。这个英国人很认真的告诉我,应该要在加都办好,否则到了LUKLA有可能会被谴送回加都。天哪!本来就心里慌慌的,听了这些话,我更是忧心冲冲的。但是事实证明,我的担心是多余的,徒步的第二天,在萨珈玛塔公园大门入口处,交1000尼币,登山证就OK了。算拉,不去想这么多拉,车到山前必有路,走到哪步算哪步,最坏的打算,坐飞机鸟瞰一回喜玛拉雅也不是什么坏事。登机前。照片中最右边那个瑞典女子,也是一个人来走EBC的,后来我们结伴一起渡过了难忘的12天的EBC之旅。[ ]这样小的飞机,只能坐十几个人,有点吓人哦。加都鸟瞰加德满都谷地不久,飞机沿喜玛拉雅山脉的一侧飞行。去的时候最好坐在左边,回来坐右边,这样可以欣赏到壮观的喜玛拉雅山脉南麓。[ ]飞行了半小时后,飞机降落在LUKLA 机场 鲁克拉机场是由新西兰人援建的小机场,加德满都——鲁克拉的飞机都是小飞机,座20人左右。我买的是AGNI AIR航空公司的机票,往返200美金(旺季),回程是Open 的,回到鲁克拉,下午去航空公司确认第二天上午的回程就行了. 机场税170卢比;雪人(YETI Airlines)雪人据说是比较好的,飞机的班次也较多,但是,在我刚离开那个机场没多久,就有一架雪人航空公司的飞机坠毁在这个机场,机上18个来自德国准备去行山的人全部遇难。 当然这是后话,EBC线路的住宿:在LUKLA到EBC这条徒步线路上有大小30多座小村庄都建小客栈,最远间隔不超过半天的路程,可以省略露营装备,即所谓的Teahouse TREKking;客栈条件一般,不隔音,有些只提供床铺不提供毛毯,所以睡袋是必须的,随海拔的升高价格从200到500卢比之间,有部分客栈提供热水浴,价格从300-500不等,在南池有160美圆日租的豪华观景酒店Everest View Hotel ,在那里可以看到Everest(8864)峰和Ama dablam (6856)峰。 EBC线路上的餐饮:因为所有的东西全部来自山下,吃是比较贵的,主要是蛋炒面、蛋炒饭,整天与鸡蛋、土豆打交道,食物大多不可口,会吃到你崩溃为止.没有肉、没有青菜(他们不会做),只有少量的牛肉还有味道。大多的小客栈提供热饮,牛奶,红茶,柠檬水等....最贵的时候两个煎鸡蛋180卢比;燃料和饮水来自不易每升开水100卢币左右。由于水源污染,饮用水是个大问,带上消毒药片是必须的。如果准备充分的话,还是应该带上汽炉和一部分食物,自己解决一半的吃饭问,既经济又实惠! [ ]这个线路比较成熟, 一路上都有小客栈随时提供吃的和住的.这些小客栈大多以雪山为背景,你可以喝着热呼呼的奶茶对着雪山发呆,甚至,你还可以躺在床上通过你的窗户就可以看见日照金山 我不知道世界上哪里还有如此惬意的徒步路线?有时候,我觉的自己像在度假.[ ]夏尔巴背夫和向导: 目前尼泊尔大约有夏尔巴族人约36万,他们大多世代居住在尼泊尔北部靠近喜马拉雅山脉的高山地带,分高山协作向导和行山背夫两种。前者大多英语流利,有高海拔攀登经验,了解相关的地理知识,并有急救技能,这类向导往往被登山队所雇佣,费用昂贵;而行山背夫只是简单的为徒步者负重。今年行山背夫的价格500卢币-700卢币(含食宿)不等,背包的质量不超过50公斤。大多数的夏尔巴背夫不会英语,但是如果背夫懂英语的话,费用将节省一半,在LUKLA,如果你不急着赶路,耐下心来,可以找到既懂英语又能背包的夏尔巴背夫 关于徒步地图 Trekking MAP : 在加都任何一间书店你都能买到制作精良的Trekking MAP,这些大多来自欧洲,售价比较昂贵。一张EVEAEST的Trekking MAP买到300-500尼币,相当于人民币30-50元。每张地图都详细注了徒步线路的地理信息。据不完全统计,尼泊尔境内,有超过70条徒步线路供徒步者选择。 这里的一切都和EVEREST(珠峰)息息相关! 畅销书 《通往世界的尽头---- 一个探险摄影家的冒险之旅》 高山救援: 整个孔布地区有最好的高山救援队,来自各地甚至国外的医护人员以志愿者 的身份轮换工作。海拔最高的季节性诊所开到了海拔4300米的Pheriche(费里 切);紧急情况下,高山直升救援机可以从EBC大本营将病人接送至加都,但收费高达6000美圆。 关于登山证: 在进入萨加玛塔国家公园大门时,需要在这里办理登山证,费用1000卢比。国家公园大门从左边这个小门廊进去办理登山证公园还设有专门的网站,提供更多的徒步信息!登山证[ ]OK!开始我的第一天行程(彩色的部分)D1,加德满都机场——LUKLA(鲁克拉)(2840米)---—Thado Koshi Gaon(2800)午餐—Phakding(2610米)(徒步3小时,准-,海拔略有下降) 4点30在北京饭店被MORNING CALL叫醒,6点的飞机,简单洗漱,冲到楼下,店小二睡眼惺松的帮我开了门,我问他,帮我叫好的车在哪里?他回答: NO CAR!天哪,黑灯瞎火的,这怎么办!街道空无一人,一个车也木有,好象是前一天有罢工活动,难不成都不开工!叫小二走远点再帮我看看是否有车,10分钟后还是未果,看来等在酒店门口不可能等到车车了,于是,背上包,冲到大街上,几乎还是看到一辆车,真叫人绝望啊。又等了十几分钟,终于看到一个小车,因为没有路灯,又生怕司机看不到我,于是奋力的呼喊,拼命的奔跑冲过路中心的隔离带,终于拦截成功。和司机说了去机场后,终于送了一口气。其实在车子开往机场的路上,心里有点担心,说实话,我根本不知道司机会带我去哪里,万一被带去一个不知道的地方,或者被打劫什么的,那岂不是要完完!于是,开始和司机套近乎,建立一些信任,总归是好的!唉,一个人出来就是这点不好!5点15到机场,飞机搞到6点半才起飞, 半小时到LUKLA。今天的行程是要从LUKLA到Phakding。[ ]([]

10分钟后,天逐渐黑了下来,我边走边开始评估自己的装备,如果万一回不去,住在野外存活的可行性有多大?只有抓绒睡袋,周围没有树或者巨大的岩石挡风。而我又只有一次在崂顶混帐的经历,可以说没有任何野外生存能力。这时想起,我是沿右侧的山边过来的,只要咬住牙往前,再走1个小时就会得救的。人的潜能是不可知的,此时自己生起无穷的体力,拼命的向前求生,顾忌不了脚下的小溪和石头,早就不用看来时的路了,简直就是在草上飞。天黑后的山里格外的冷,幸亏没有大风,雾气也悄悄散去,月光下还能看清前面的方向。悔恨自己出来,没有带指南针和买当地的电话卡,真出了什么意外,老婆会骂死我的。家人并不知道我来EBC,说了他们也不知道是什么,其实没来尼泊尔之前,我也不知道。好在我一路上运气超好,坚持走到了这里。我绝不能放弃行走,一定会得救的,如果我成功回去了,这是我30岁前唯一可以自豪的事情。选择间隔年里,走这种自虐的旅行,也是给失败的青春,留下最后的荣耀吧。在我精疲力竭的时候,远处隐约的灯光闪现出来,我通过自己的努力得救了。 我几乎是爬到山风住的旅店。当我敲开门进去的时候,一群老外们,坐在火炉旁惊讶的看着我,他们好像在说:“你怎么这样狼狈呀”英文我是听不懂得。我着急的打量着周围,终于看到了山风,惭愧的想让她收留我住在一起,只为节省点房费。这时我吝啬抠门的本性暴露无疑,别人不会理解我辞职来的尼泊尔的心情。我时刻提醒自己不是来玩的,放弃工作,放下责任,回去半年内还要花家里的积蓄过日子,每一分钱都要更有价值。我看的出山峰真的生气了,像是老婆在埋怨我的狠心,爱答不理的说:“你这是怎么了,怎么又回来了”我有种特冤的感觉。喝了口热水平静了下来,我把迷路的经历讲述了一遍,这才勉强原谅了我的背叛。第二天,我留下200卢比独自一大早又走了,因为我知道FOX还在等我。女人们,请原谅我的自私和狠心吧,后来我在加德满都决定不继续跟FOX去印度了,希望以后不会再有这样鲁莽和自私的旅行了。此贴献给我心爱的两岁女儿。有一天她长大了,喜欢上旅行来8264分享快乐,也许会看到吧。l 开始向珠峰脚下前进。。。 请站在照片里,用心去感受。。。《未选择的路-弗罗斯特》黄色的树林里分出两条路可惜我不能同时去涉足我在那路口久久伫立向着一条路极目望去直到它消失在丛林深处但我却选择了另外一条路它荒草萋萋,十分幽寂显得更诱人,更美丽虽然在这两条小路上都很少留下旅人的足迹虽然那天清晨落叶满地两条路都未经脚步污染呵,留下一条路等改日再见!但我知道路径延绵无尽头恐怕我难以再返回也许多少年后在某个地方我将轻声叹息将往事回顾一片树林里分出两条路——而我选择了人迹更少的一条从此决定了我一生的道路即选择勿回头。。。 单反D90照片大于2M,首次发帖不会处理,先发卡片机照片,请见谅!第一站开封主要游览了大相国寺院,早上抢到了沙发。 第一次背着包在马路上走,还真是不好意思。第一次发帖还是用照片说话吧。 佛日增辉 塔有九层 缸是开封府的 行程第一天就看到释迦摩尼,难道知道我要去蓝比尼,呵呵 。遇到了个长者说办个波依佛门的证可以天下寺院免费,比导游证好事,它怎么知道我有导游证呀 八角琉璃殿中心亭的一尊银杏木雕千手千眼观音像,更是蜚声海内外。这尊雕像高达7米,像分四面,每面分四层,各雕手臂千只,精美之极,雕造于乾隆年间(公元1736-1785年),历时500多年,工艺之精,造型之美,举世无双,极为珍贵。 方丈门前的麒麟急事慢做 很有禅意 日本真言宗的开山祖师弘法大师空海,于唐德宗贞元二十年(公元804年)曾居于大相国寺内。他学问渊博,且精通汉文,参照中国草书偏旁,创立了日文字母"平假名"并作《伊吕波歌》传世至今很贵的罗汉餐,后来在蓝比尼中华寺赶上水陆法会免费吃了7天,我佛缘不浅呀心愿要晒起来的这木头好像是化石 什么时候能发完行程走了3个月呢先睡觉了我的珠峰EBC全程徒步用时22天,值得期待呀 哈哈发完帖子回头再看,一切都很简单了。感谢大家的捧场,原本只为借帖子保存照片,后来看到有朋友关注,开始写一点感想。以前每天关心看帖人数的增加,有点炫耀的激动。帖子结束后,在东南亚旅行离开了2个月,回来后看到并没有跟帖开始有些失落。其实旅行总有结束的一天,帖子也总有被遗忘的一天,自己的经历才是最珍贵的财富。我会坚持丰富帖子的内容,对自己和观众负责 呵呵。 龙亭公园 北宋开国皇帝赵匡胤陈桥兵变后,把这里作为皇宫。 地上的现实地下的往事 对面的驴肉汤很棒 延亭观殿内有位神婆子说我是秦二世投胎 故能玄虚 9月26日出发D3 登封少林寺,先上照片导游证被拒,幸运的是找到旅游团队扮演全陪逃票成功。 上面的招式是出门前看别人帖子里学的姿势。少林寺威震武林,我真的来了!

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([]
