我承认,每次要写帖子前就纠结很久很久,因为开了篇就要对它负责,要好好写,要写完我承认,我给帖子起名字的能力很差,没什么文艺色彩,为啥不能先写主体最后起名字呢我承认,写游记的时候罗里吧嗦,把自己的感受不论正面负面都狠狠说一遍我承认,每次看照片,都觉得怎么拍得这么少,当时怎么就这么懒不能早点起来晚点收工这次丝绸之路之旅,从2011年7月20日到10月17日,快3个月,行程大概有3000~4000公里那么多,好在有火车和汽车,不然3年都回不来这也不是完整的丝绸之路,因为不是从西安开始的,国境都没出,就不要说巴基斯坦和中亚之后的那段了(很想去,但是。。。)行程的顺序是西宁-青海湖-门源-祁连-山丹-张掖-敦煌-乌鲁木齐--库车-喀什-麦盖提-塔什库尔干-和田-民丰-回到乌鲁木齐-克拉玛依-乌尔禾-布尔津-贾登峪-禾木-喀纳斯-白哈巴-(原路回到乌鲁木齐)-鄯善-哈密-回家深感西部牛羊肉之好吃极了百吃不厌深感天朝的交通发达和交通费之高昂深感祖国地貌之丰富多变和色彩斑斓深感西部大开发让物价有了明显提升各位有耐心请听我慢慢道来,不要急,写帖子累啊!希望大家喜欢(张掖冰沟丹霞)开贴啦从65页开始放上攻略,方便大家截取有用的部分,作为自己旅行的参考。西宁就是中转而已,住在西凉驿青旅(不知为啥它当时从yha网上除名了),但是它很火,气氛很好直接去了白玉巷子的手抓肉大饱口福,再喝了杯当地酸奶。一切准备着,为次日向青海湖进发做好准备!青海湖非常热门,班车买不到票。在车站门口愣住很久,最后决定包车前往,一直开到了黑马河,原来这里是著名的日出观测点住宿帐篷,4人100元一顶。这里看上去不是那么为众人知晓,不然价格就。。。还未必住得上下午3点,吃了藏包子和奶茶,往湖边逛一逛当时除了向日葵色板官方4人没有其他游客,湖边宁静得很湖边藏民牵着马,慢慢的走着。我们没骑马,只是和他们聊了聊他们并不急于向向日葵色板官方推销生意,也许他们只是晒晒太阳湖边有个小女孩,是这些牵马藏民家的小精灵,静谧的青海湖,湛蓝的水边,有了她,才更加令人难以忘怀她不怕生,我抱着她玩了一会儿,她就咯咯地笑八过,等我放下她的时候,我的手已经被她褪色的小棉衣染红了(有谁会ps,把后面这两个人p掉啦)话说高原地方空气真好,天也澄净等向日葵色板官方在湖边玩得差不多要撤的时候,呼啦来了几车的游客。一打听,是为了次日早晨日出拍摄踩点来了。哦,原来是这样!不知不觉得路上骑行环湖的友人推荐,住到了个好位置啦!回头再看看,天还是那么蓝,可是柔美如丝的云变成了块状。来得早不如来得巧,鉴定完毕!距离晚饭还早,进主干道开展“扫街”活动再遇到非常热情的藏民朋友有日光的时候,他们坐在街边晒太阳唠嗑向日葵色板官方拍照,她们很乐意,左边抱着孩子的女士请向日葵色板官方上他们家去拍他们家是个小四合院这位女士借了藏袍给我穿,由于形象恶劣就不贴出来了他们家的老爷子很可爱的个性,看向日葵色板官方拍照,就趴在窗台上看向日葵色板官方这身衣服,让我想起了80年代的典型着装向日葵色板官方拍毕,女士带着向日葵色板官方去往村子周边示意一个婆婆握着转经筒让向日葵色板官方拍照他们看见显示屏上的照片,都乐极了。我要是有个立拍得就好了,让他们都能存上自己的照片。可是银子。。。。。。翻页了,继续努力中完美的拍摄下午结束了,在镇上吃了晚饭,溜达回湖边帐篷。次日还要早起,快快就寝。话说这还是7月份的青海湖啊。晚上,我掏出了羽绒服,掏出了羽绒睡袋,再准备好抓绒帽子和手套。高原,真冷!第二天六点,被这日出和浪涛深深感动了!八过,湖边总不免有些垃圾,只能挑干净的地方描绘美的一面了,呵呵日出拍摄的时段很短,没多久就日头太高光比过大同时,日出拍摄旅行团也来了向日葵色板官方就撤退会帐篷吃早饭高原7月的早晨,我的穿着是羽绒服,抓绒服,保暖衣裤,帽子,手套,供大家参考(我比较怕冷)转战151,这原先应该是一个部队番号,也因为它刚好距离西宁151公里,因此大家都简称其为151了,同时它也是湖边有名的赏花之所。其实,七月青海湖边油菜花盛开,是旅游最旺的时候。拥有大片湖边油菜花田的藏民,每人5元,每日200-300人次,可以计算,为期一月的油菜花季,农业之外的收入是多少。姐表示非常羡慕他藏民小姑娘,淳朴、羞涩得很。我把相机给她玩,她能从长枪短炮的关注下转变成拍摄的掌控者,这让她开心极了。向日葵色板官方请她在花田里跑跑,她开心极了边跑变笑,实在是湖边最美的风景高原天气变化很快,早晨美丽日出后,中午阴云密布回到青旅休息,可是始终不甘心。到后山走走,居然飘下几滴雨。同行人决定午觉,可是他们也是闲不住的主儿,一会儿就探出头来问:再走走吧?再一走,天又晴了。后山有个村子,村里有一群快乐的藏族小孩这是其中最羞涩的一个,笑的时候都会紧张地看看向日葵色板官方。后山的青稞和油菜花!大片大片从后山回来,又到了日落时分出门走走,远远看见湖边有两顶帐篷,就不管远近地向它们走去小路弯弯,只有我们几人,好美的斜阳好宁静的的地方遇到骑车过来的藏民,他们说,一定去帐篷那里转转走啊走,到了! 牵马的孩子,他羞涩地牵过马来,说,你看我的马好不好漂亮吗?不得不说向日葵色板官方运气真的很好我已经多少时候没见过太阳又大又圆从地平线落下去了?我再次被湖边的景色感动了这又是个我们几人独享的景色远处的经幡飘荡,看晚霞布满天空日落下去好一会儿,天色还是那么迷人站在半沼泽的草堆上,温度渐渐低了,好冷,但是舍不得走想着,这青海湖边拍的差不多了没想到,次日还是早早起了,青旅的后山,终于正儿八经地开始拍油菜花了日出油菜花田,用了下滤镜以此结束青海湖2日的行程。没有环湖,以前环过,比起这次,觉得没什么必要,看到的东西不会比在黑马河和151看到的多。如果是摄影爱好者,私以为这两个地方足以,每年7月-8月初回到西宁,班车门源,几十里油菜花田青稞田村落,惊叹!门源,7月10日-8月10日,浓缩了全年旅游最高峰宾馆价格将会从平日的100元以下,飙升到几百大元,甚是恐怖有兴趣者,又想节约银子者,可以找农家院的炕头住。就在班车下客处边的岔路墙上有他们的广告,100以内可以搞定回到正,门源的美,真是大美啊!走,赏花去! 高原的天气说变就变,上午的雨一阵一阵,到了午后,偶尔地出了一段短暂时间的太阳,之后,又是一阵暴雨。当时还在困惑是不是要出门拍摄,最后因为肚子饿才逼着自己走到县城。准备出行时,心中仍然满怀犹豫。门源距离青石嘴的20多公里路,是油菜花景致最为集中的一段,然而当车沿着公路开过,阴雨带来的心情始终让人觉得包下这车子有些不值得。前半段在观花台走了几圈,并没有发现特别让人振奋的光影。突然,也没有风,完全无征兆地头顶上的云层散开了,岗什卡雪峰也露脸了。在短短几分钟内,整片天空像变脸似地蓝得透彻,阳光毫不吝啬地洒满在金黄色的油菜花田里。光影依然未必尽如人意,然而云过天青的惊喜,足以让我感到走上观花台是值得的。绕过青石嘴,沿着不知名的路线,令人惊叹的风景就在车后窗如卷帘拉开:时而牛羊在河边饮水,时而马匹在草场上散步,时而青稞浪随风摆荡,时而油菜花探头微笑,时而山峦在云影下明暗有致。想让司机停车很多很多很多次,然而总是要取舍的,不然真的一步都挪不动了。如果我有青稞的视角,我就这么拍如果我有牛的闲工夫,我也这么晒太阳吃吃草绕道后山,见全景也遥望见一片次日要探索的地方环游活动结束,还舍不得回去,走到天边,夕阳从青稞田平面的远端落下了北山公社前一晚远远地看见山边的一个村落在夕阳的照耀下闪着迷人的光彩,就决定次日一定要想法子去看看。果然,当向日葵色板官方来到北山乡政府门口的小路边,立刻就被那接天无穷的金黄色征服了。这是一张很平凡的图片,不过,试想一下,把它向左右延伸5倍铺开,形成180度的环视场面,非常震撼了(鄙人ps基本不会,接图也是白痴一个,因此,只能请读者想像一下)近处来看,小花小草都很让人赏心悦目坐在石凳上,喝一杯小茶,吹一吹小风([]

7月21日成功登顶玉珠峰。谢谢8264的旗子,不冻泉客栈老板一直想要一面8264驴友带过去的旗子,有幸让我带了过去。谢谢 希途送向日葵色板官方的专业户外眼镜。这个故事要从北京开往拉萨的火车上说起,7月14日晚一个男人和三个女人登上了北京开往拉萨的火车。他们的目的地并不是拉萨而是青海省格尔木。7月份进藏的票是很难买的。经过努力只买到了4张硬座。补卧铺的可能性几乎为零。最后4个人“硬座改卧铺”虽有点不雅但也算解决了休息的问。劳累并兴奋的旅途自然也不会忘记窗外风景,山岭如画,人在画中。伴随着火车的震动和流动的风景,向日葵色板官方一路向西。兰州的火车站卖了一个叫:大饼卷鸡腿,这个很受欢迎。三人下车一个买了一个,我不吃鸡肉,也帮车上值班的UU买了一个。等上车后才发现这妞更猛,不吃肉。西宁火车站:青海老酸奶 味道很好,强烈推荐路过的朋友大批量购买,一妹妹回程时竟然买了一箱。青海的油菜花车窗外青海的青和青海的羊群为了更大的扩大地盘,进行了第二次“硬座改卧铺”,友谊也是从这里开始。经过了几十个小时,总算到达了格尔木火车站。4人小组的一个合影。也早该出来露面了,长的难看也要见大家的。到宾馆安顿好之后,第一件事就是吃羊肉呀,航天员回到地球吃羊汤,向日葵色板官方也必须要来碗羊肉汤。凌晨3点多到的。预定宾馆6点才可以入住,办理了钟点房临时休息。临时休息后入住格尔木大厦。7月17日睡醒之后,第一件事先挣开了眼。然后打电话联系向日葵色板官方租的车。司机说11点到。向日葵色板官方就开始收拾整理装备。11点左右司机来了。一个老朋友,去年就用了他的车。福特俱乐部8缸。为登山做的后勤采购。向不冻泉方向前进,路上捡了三名搭车去拉萨的朋友。佩服他们的精神。看着他们开以后笑容,向日葵色板官方也感觉到开心。欢笑是可以传染的。分离时就像朋友一样。短短的几个小时,让大家产生了一种快乐的友情。([]
放点片花,先吸引一下眼球【先预览一下~】【写在开始前】 子辰打来电话的那个早上,我连牙都还没有刷,正在给阿呆做着早饭。 挂了之后也并没反应过来,脑子里只剩下几个关键词语:南美、自驾、40号公路、不要钱!又呆了几分钟后,我就只记得不要钱了。(高的家伙是小马,矮的家伙就是阿呆哈哈~) 小广告一下,向日葵色板官方的微信公众号往下看哈哈(最右边就是向日葵色板官方在沙溪的家了~) 还以为拥有充足的时间准备,因为计划的行程开始是15年的3月27,收到消息的时候连14年都还没有跨过去呢,但哪知道工作上的事情正好特别多,一直到出发前我都还没有做功课,只知道这次要去的地方应该是地球上直线距离最远的了,脑袋里一片浆糊就跟着走了,以至于下面对线路和行程的整理,完全是回来后才搞明白的......线路及自驾说明【线路及自驾说明】为什么选择40号公路?相比较美国那几条耳熟能详的自驾线路来说,阿根廷的自驾线路鲜有人知。说实话,当初接到子辰兄的电话让我做行程安排的时候,我才第一听说40号公路,在网上能查到的关于它的自驾攻略几乎没有。但它在外国旅行者中,特别是摩托骑士口中,就像朝圣之路一般,为什么呢?来看看我下面的介绍吧~ 安第斯山脉是世界上最长的山脉 ,从北到南蜿蜒七千多公里,构成了整个南美大陆的脊梁,山脉本身也是阿根挺和智利两国的天然国界线。在山的东侧,有一条全长近五千公里的公路,自阿根挺南部的火地岛向北一直到达玻利维亚边界,大多数时候与安第斯山脉平行。公路经过阿根廷的3个大区11个省份,跨过18条主要河流,13个大湖和盐湖,有桥梁236座,沿途经过20个国家公园和保护区,包括南美最高峰阿空加瓜登山大本营,并连接27个安第斯山过境山口,这就是被称为世界上最荒凉的阿根廷40号公路。 切.格瓦拉曾在23岁时,骑着他的诺顿500驶入40号公路,开始了他的旅程并写下了《骑士日记》。后来这段故事还被改编为电影。(科普完毕,我也是网上看来的~) 而这次向日葵色板官方是从布宜诺斯艾利斯出发,由东向西跟随7号公路然后在门多萨向南转入40号公路。整个行程向日葵色板官方将作为子辰兄的摄影助理同行,这也就是为什么免费的原因了。(实线是自驾线路,全程是4000多公里,虚线是飞行线路。由于没有办理智利证,所以车子无法跨越智利国土去到乌斯怀亚,只能是从埃尔卡拉法特飞到了乌斯怀亚。)(没有任何意外的话,这是我进行过最长途跋涉的一次旅行了,为了到达目的地,向日葵色板官方从沙溪——丽江——北京——多哈——圣保罗——布宜诺斯艾利斯,光在飞机上坐着就耗费了30多个小时,很多次不知道白天黑夜,对于目的地的兴奋感早都被消磨完了。) 算起来也是第二次在国外自驾(第一次是在土耳其沿地中海自驾,就是上一篇烂尾的游记,因为没时间实在写不下去了。。。),但是之前也说了没时间准备,所以关于租车、证件、路况等等都一无所知,好在子辰和小马在出发前做足了准备,我也得以拿来整理如下: 关于驾照:阿根廷是认可国际驾照的,但我没有~ 所以驾照就是去公证处公证一份西班牙语的翻译件即可。 关于租车:由于向日葵色板官方的车辆是旅行社直接提供的,所以我不知道具体的费用,不过在阿根廷安飞士和赫兹我都有看到,所以租车是完全没问的。 关于加油:阿根廷大部分的车辆是柴油动力,而柴油的价格因为地区、品质和不同的加油站的区别,价格在1到2美元不等。柴油型号也是多种多样,我们一路基本都是添加的EURO。 关于路况:现在的40号公路较以前已经改观了很多,这一路上,80%的路面都已进行了硬化,剩下的20%虽是弹石路,但也较为平整。 关于过路费:一路上只有在7号公路上遭遇过收费站,不论是高速还是国道,比国内的收费稍便宜一些。转入40号公路上没有任何收费。 其它注意事项: 1、阿根廷只要是行驶在路上的车辆,都是全天开大灯的,不过当然是近光,远光灯去死~ 2、在跨越一些省界的时候会有宪兵或者警察对车辆或行李进行检查,而有一些是要对车辆进行消毒处理的(过程不复杂~),也由一些是不能带水果过境的...... 3、路和交规和国内基本一致,除了绿灯不亮不能右转。 4、路况虽然不错,但是尽量不要开夜路,沿途野生动物太多,撞到牛啊马啊什么的一点也不稀奇。 5、不要超速,罚单很贵,因为向日葵色板官方被罚惨了。。。 6、上了40号公路后,看到加油站的话,就算还有半箱油也宁愿先加满,也不要问我为什么知道~ 对了,还有关于汇兑:向日葵色板官方是在国内换好了美金,但是在阿根廷银行里换的话只有1:8.5左右,也由攻略说在布宜诺斯艾利斯的弗罗里达大街换可以到1:12左右,但是很多人说会换到假币,并且用不完的钱拿回银行也换不回美金,综合考虑到安全和便捷的问,向日葵色板官方一直是找导游换的1:10,在一些店铺是可以直接使用美金购买的,1:11的样子,也可以进行兑换,不过只兑换50和100的面额。 其他的我暂时也想不起来,如果大家有什么问,我一定知无不言~(根据上面的行程看来,大家应该也明白了,向日葵色板官方这次的行程时间很紧,每两地之间的路程都很遥远,大部分的时间都是在车上看风景了。。。)人和物的介绍【人和物的介绍】 说了这么多,下面就介绍一下这次同行的已经是好基友的和在行程中变成了好基友的队友们~ 小马,江湖人称马哥,这个蚂蜂窝账号是她的,是的,现在不是她在写,是她分配给我在写~ 因为她是我媳妇,我也没办法。 向日葵色板官方被别人组了一个组合叫“猴年马月”......自从认识她后我就跟着她玩了好多地方,是的,我是她的小跟班~ 她常年在玩,这会她在楼下玩阿呆,作为资深的玩家,她不写的原因用她的话说就是她有更重要的事情要做,所以这会她应该是在谋划下一次旅行或者是正在盯着某一家航空公司的特价机票两眼冒光~ 还有就是,上一篇烂尾的土耳其自驾游记,责任在她哈哈...... 子辰,某知名网站编辑,向日葵色板官方只在“猴年马月”的婚礼上见过一面,第二面就直接是这次在首都机场T3了。 深度文艺中年,旅行途中带了两本书,一本丢了,另一本看了两页。 因自诩风光摄影师,而本姓李,所以偶尔我会昧着良心叫他“安塞尔.亚当李”,一般是在他买单前后~ 关于这次的旅行他也会在汽车之家的论坛里发布游记,当然我们的角度肯定是不一样的,因为他183CM,我168CM(什么都不要说~),我们看到的世界完全不同~ 而且他放言要在游记里每天写死我一次,我期待看到我的各种死法~ 为什么要写死我?因为当他自诩纪实摄影师的时候,我没有叫他“李布列松”~ 由于我就带了一个小相机,而且是35定焦不能换头的,所以以下如果有一些展示不出来的我就借用了子辰的照片,为了区分,我的加了水印。 我,名怿昀,大家都叫我猴子,这个我本来是不愿意的,不能你叫我猴子我就叫猴子啊,我也得觉得好听才行,可是因为我本姓侯,所以Duang的一下,大家都叫我猴子了。随着这些年越发无法卖萌,那些嫌我老的人也就越来越多的叫我师兄或者猴哥~ 这也就自然变成了“猴年马月”组合~ 由于兴趣爱好过于广泛,自然精通的没有几样,平时就靠着拍照和设计混混日子。每一次的旅行都是跟着马哥混,成长自然是惊人的,至少我英语以前只会Yes和No,现在已经会You can you up了~Leo,向日葵色板官方这次行程的地接导游1号,除了中间有事离开了两天,都是他在陪着向日葵色板官方,据他自己说,向日葵色板官方这次的行程他和EX都来过,说多了都是泪,哎~ 自幼随父母从台湾移民阿根廷,完全融入了阿根廷的生活,现在已经发展成了国际倒爷,平时除了带游客走走看看,会把国内的小商品卖到阿根廷,再把阿根廷的红酒卖到国内~ 此人拥有一身练过又反弹了的肌肉,身高堪比“安塞尔.亚当李”,至今单身,在此征婚(我保证是他让我说的~)据说叫Leo的人都很自恋,听上去好像比较偏颇,但是这位Leo再次证明了这一论点。如果楼下也有叫Leo的不要怪我嘴贱,我也是听来的而已呵呵~小白,导游2号,在Leo有事的那几天与向日葵色板官方同行。自高中时来阿根廷留学,至今大学虽没毕业,婚倒是结了一个,说到这,得说说他的这个媳妇,反正我是没听明白,你们来分析分析:信仰古巴一个巫术小教派、出生在一个犹太教家庭、半阿根廷半法国血统、金发、职业是护士。没听明白吧?但听上去很不错的样子~ 当然他和向日葵色板官方分享的最多的还是结婚之前积累的各种经验,对于这些经验我无法一一道来,但是向日葵色板官方都建议他写一本《阿根廷各州各信仰各民族各肤色泡妞指南》,书名虽长,但一定很实用,而且一定要先给Leo看看~漫长的准备 仓促的开始 (从沙溪到布宜诺斯艾利斯)【漫长的准备 仓促的开始(从沙溪到布宜诺斯艾利斯)】 出发前的一个月,我总算有时间瞟了一眼地图,哎呀,我要从南走到北啊~ 不对,是从北走到南,但差不多啊,北面多热,南面多冷~ 这一路走下来温差可够大了,当下眼珠子一转,拨了朋友的电话,谁让他是搞户外用品的呢~ 就这样,还没开动,朋友就给赞助了衣服鞋子,而且都是顶级的~事实证明在世界尽头的冷风中给了向日葵色板官方十足的温暖啊,啥户外?神州户外啊!(毫无广告痕迹)下面还有二维码~~ 具体准备证的问就不详细再说了,向日葵色板官方的证是通过旅行社代办的,但是资料都是自己准备好的,后面免去了面也算是方便了很多。 就这样,拖拖拉拉的准备了4个月,期间我们和子辰连面都没见,直到出发的前一天,向日葵色板官方三个从三个不同的地方出发,马哥从沙溪到丽江找我会合后直奔机场飞向帝都。(以免又购买易碎品放在背包里收到挤压,特意买了个行李箱,向日葵色板官方自己设计的关于沙溪的贴纸也总算有地方贴了~) 向日葵色板官方乘坐的是卡塔尔航空的班机,凌晨2点起飞,子辰一直在忙着准备这个行程的各种资料,一直到起飞前1小时他才赶到机场和我们见面,要不是向日葵色板官方的护照还在他手里,向日葵色板官方早过关逛街去了,没办法等到他后直奔值机柜台。 就这样,向日葵色板官方出发了,在过关后去登机口的轻轨上我问子辰:关于行程,向日葵色板官方聊聊?;聊啥?就是我拍照,你也拍照,别的想到的再说,飞机上还有20多个小时呢~;......([]
现代文明社会很容易与低炭挂上钩,俺这里的低炭就是说贴子的口水尽量少喷些,简约嘛也就是文字少些花里花俏,要干净利索地直捣黄龙。 西藏大家也去的很滥了,风景也看厌了。俺也是,青藏线上的风景俺都很少瞧一眼,到是车厢里的藏族小朋友更吸引俺,风景永远都在,大家拱起屁股拍来拍去都是大同小异。可人物是鲜活的就很少有重复的啦。 在拉萨过年当然要去家庭温暖的场合了,年初一在妹子格桑拉姆的家里过,格桑拉姆是西藏的贵族后代,在1998年她上初中的时侯就认识她啦,后来每次来拉萨都会去她家看,她在陕西咸阳的西藏民族学院毕业后分到了政协工作。她弟弟在内地南通上过学,后来考去了天津南开大学,很温馨的一家子! 在春节前后十天里,中尼公路下起了暴雪,路封了,有些春节前提前去樟木的人都被困在聶拉林,进出不得,食品缼少,一桶方便面都卖到了三十元。 在拉萨时结识了三个旅伴拼车先从拉萨坐班车到日喀则,再从日喀则包车到老定日,老定日很难找车,这个天气没有车敢去,后来好不容易包了个车去聶拉木,半夜后车到聶拉木后马上找旅馆休息。这二天路上的雪被解放军淸理了很多,但还不能通车,前几天困在这里的游客也请了背夫徒步去了樟木,第二天俺们也请了背夫,一人50元帮俺们背包,刚开始走时都是结冰的路,一路有很多货车都在路上挂了,就这样公路走走又走走便道,走了十二小时就到了樟木。到了樟木后找不到路走只好去尼泊尔啦。 人物:从右到左 阿峰:广东湛江人,文艺青年,无业,平时搞些画画、设计 小悦:阿峰的女朋友,四川大学的研究生 小吴:南京人,复旦大学在读MBA 扎西:小学文化,住址不定,金牌无业青年扎西相关帖子连接:(汗斯推荐)【穷行印地】Mumbai----Chennai----Calcutta图文(68楼最新更新)https//bbs.8264.com/thread-346551-1-1.html【THAILAND】蓝蓝的天/蓝蓝的梦(KO PHI PHI)+(PHUKET)的几百张照片https//bbs.8264.com/thread-342525-1-1.html越南越走越南。。。。https//bbs.8264.com/thread-335652-1-1.html高棉的眼泪】------无数个骷髅头向你泣诉着柬埔寨的荣辱与兴衰https//bbs.8264.com/thread-377174-1-1.html在西宁告别了拜拜、老虎、楼蓝和二位表妹后坐上青藏铁路往拉萨而去。。。。准备去拉萨朝圣的青海藏族乡亲准备去拉萨朝圣的青海藏族乡亲准备去拉萨朝圣的青海藏族乡亲准备去拉萨朝圣的青海藏族乡亲准备去拉萨朝圣的青海藏族乡亲准备去拉萨朝圣的青海藏族乡亲准备去拉萨朝圣的青海藏族乡亲准备去拉萨朝圣的青海藏族乡亲准备去拉萨朝圣的青海藏族乡亲准备去拉萨朝圣的青海藏族乡亲路上的状况,大货车被困住了([]
旅行,之于我,是一种生活状态和生活方式,再次背上行囊,离开熟悉的大都市,只身一人来到让我热爱不已的四川,来对一直没机会去看看的阿坝州、甘孜州等地做一次探索。一个月,从秋走到冬,再从冬走到秋,收获的不仅仅在相机镜头里,还在心里,有暖暖的情谊和让人珍藏的友情……这种感觉,在回到家整理照片和游记的时候尤为浓烈,在收到朋友短信问候的时候尤为温暖,在网上交换照片的时候尤为欣慰,在掩上电脑回忆时候尤为感怀……四川,我还会再来的!路线介绍:出门基本没计划过,脑子里只想过九寨、德格两个地方,为了把这两个地方串起来,于是:成都-九寨-黄龙-松潘-汶川-桃坪羌寨-理县-毕棚沟-米亚罗-马尔康-丹巴-甘孜-德格-甘孜-新都桥-康定-泸定-磨西-西昌-泸沽湖-西昌-雅安-峨眉-双流第一站:九寨从成都开往九寨的车,早上8点开到晚上5点。当时怨声载道,不过整个月走下来,这条路还算较好的路了。由于5.12地震后对从汶川、茂县、松潘进九寨的路影响很大,这段路一直在修,导致进九寨的路采取“单进双出”的限制措施,不仅是这个方向,从绵阳、平武进九寨也是限制的。每天从成都新南门车站开往九寨方向的车有四班,其中最后一班8点钟的是加班车。前一晚到达成都已经6点多,买票的时候已经是最后几个座位了。高昂的票价让我咋舌不已,170大元。以前导游书上说,120元左右的,看来真是物价飞涨啊然而,进九寨的一瞬,会让你觉得再辛苦也是值得的,因为九寨,真的是一个让任何形容词都失色的童话世界令人无比意外的是,今年冬天来得早,九寨秋叶正灿烂的时候,已经下了第一场雪。最高点则查洼沟的长海和日则沟的原始森林已经完全是银装素裹的世界。第一天和前一日在青旅认识的三个朋友一起进沟,到树正寨下来放下行李。早上7点多,有人没有几个,坐上景区巴士人也空空落落。树正寨似乎也才苏醒过来,在丹果(音)家住下,就急匆匆地赶往长海。天上正飘雨,感到有点小郁闷。前面几天可正是晴天呢。哎,运气不好。匆匆走过树正群海,在老虎海乘车点坐上网长海方向的车。一路上绚烂的秋叶、变黄的松树、前几日降霜后雪白的高山针叶林层层叠叠,层次感分明。随着海拔渐高,在下季节海的转弯处,彩色渐退,过渡至银色。窗外开始淅淅沥沥的小雨,逐渐变成飘雪。雪花打着弯向车窗铺来,虽然冷,向日葵色板官方还是情不自禁地拉开窗门,让雪点打在脸上。从下季节海到上季节海的路上,经过一片挺长的松树林,雪积得不厚,恰到好处地压在绿色的松枝上,让整片林子一层白一层绿,煞是沉静。上季节海面前,周遭的山体已经全然是白色,海子在天色、林子颜色的映衬下,完全是一片宁静的白,水面上飘起的一阵雾气,轻柔炫目。顺便说一下,上下季节海是不停车的,只能从车窗往外观赏终于,接驳车停在长海面前。一个观景台让长海的容颜一览无余。游人兴奋地在海子边拍照,但大家似乎都没有大声喧哗,不愿破坏这恬静的景色。初到长海,正逢第一层雾气在日渐温度的作用下飘起来,海子周围的山显露出来,雾气一层一层,把山体也隔成一层一层,浓淡相宜的山和雾在镜头中营造出仙境一般的感觉。美总是和爱美之人做时间赛跑,清晰的山湖海转瞬即逝,雾气再次聚拢在山体上,除了海子的表面,白茫茫的一片,似乎连自己都成了雾中的一份子。从观景台的右手边下行可到达长海水面上的栈道,和海子如此贴近,水中孤岛落满白雪,清晰地倒影在水面上。前方树林时隐时现,一会儿让水面呈现出海市蜃楼般美丽,一会儿水面又呈现出纯净的白,没有言语词汇能够形容这样的景色,唯有在岸边静静地欣赏。冬景很耐看,一种冷静冷峻的美虽然只有黑白,却让人总想往深处探寻也许大多数人都是冲着九寨之秋来的,没想到轻而易举地同时拥有了两个季节的感觉。秋,就像少女的眼神,含情脉脉,灼热斑斓;而冬,就好似深谙世事却风韵不减的少妇,平静地诉说着故事,让人回味。长海看台往左手边有个栈道可以下到海子的边上,这里更能看到海子的精华我们下到栈道时,游客很少,大多聚集在观景台附近。整条栈道上脚印也没有几个,此处雪厚,把自己的脚印印上去,特别清晰。一路可以走到贴近山边的镜头,倒下来的木头上也覆盖着一层雪,这是才意识到自己是走进原始森林了。和朋友在栈道上拍了很久,搞怪出各种动作,都不愿离去。来了三个兵哥哥,虽然严肃,但看上去年纪很小,让我们都觉得他们是乘巡逻之机娱乐一番。他们自己滚个大雪球,大起雪仗来。我们就上去拉他们拍照,他们立刻又做出一副严肃的样子,很有意思。最终,一个大概是年纪最小的被向日葵色板官方扣下来拍照,照片上向日葵色板官方笑得好灿烂,他却有点尴尬,很有意思呢。 离开长海,沿着栈道去五彩池。栈道不长,但走的很慢,一是路上不停地发现拍摄点,大家停下来拍个不停,二是前面一天下雪,栈道结冰了,一个姐姐的鞋子很滑,走起来小心翼翼。景区工作人员虽然已经不停地铲雪,但树上融雪掉下来,还是很快地在地面结冰。一路上可拍的点很多,虽然只有黑色和白色,即树木枝干和雪,但此景能出些音调分明的片子。很多爱好者架着脚架,在此耐心选景,冷对他们早已不是问。他们亮丽的衣服颜色,在冰天雪地中反而成为亮点,成为景色的一部分。五彩池,开始我以为是五个色彩各异的池子,原来是一个能呈现出五种颜色的池。当然了,海拔3000多米的地方已经率先进入冬季,五花山的色彩已经褪去,五彩池自然也不能呈现出五种颜色了。不过,这纯净的蓝色却不受天气的影响,即便在这样的天气,依然蓝得深邃。短短的一段栈道,向日葵色板官方走过就用了一个小时,因为一步一景,可拍的太多了。有的拍湖水,有的拍叶子,有的拍远山,有的拍水里的枯木。岸边还堆了一个雪人,广东姐姐把黄色围巾放上去,好漂亮,顿时成为一个新景点,我们拍好,在排队等拍照的人就请求他们不要取走围巾。冬雪覆盖下的五彩池有种透彻的美感,蓝色的睡眠静静地倒影着银装的山和松树,很淡雅的美快出五花海栈道时,天突然放晴,感受到太阳光温暖的一刹那,似乎整个五彩池也活跃起来。周围树林上的雪反射出的光,水面反射出星辉般的光,交汇在一起,向日葵色板官方霸占了栈道的一个绝好拍摄角落,很久不愿离去。游客真不少,向日葵色板官方缓慢地 向前挪动,不是走不过去,而是舍不得走从五彩池下来的坐车点,往下走几步,就是上季节海了,远远地看一眼,也是很好的享受。远处有一片工地,似乎在建房子,也许以后,上季节海也会成为一个停留点的。原来以为则查洼沟这边两个点很快就看完了,没想到从五彩池出来已经下午1点了。坐车回到诺日朗中心站,匆匆吃过午饭,几乎就是把食物拿出来胡乱往嘴里塞进去,就马上搭车向日则沟方向去。坐在右手边,一路是看不完的海子,不绝于耳的赞叹声。在诺日朗中心站稍作休息后,来到了日则沟尽头的原始森林。从上往下,是整个九寨沟的精华所在。这只是原始森林最靠外的一部分,所谓的“深山老林”还在更远处。在林子里,感到格外的静,人的说话声会被树叶吸收似地,隔一段距离,都听不清楚了。从原始森林下栈道走,经过芳草海和天鹅海,相对于五花海等景点,这里游客相对稀少。栈道隐在山林一侧,茂密的水草掩盖了海子,仅留出一条细细的水道让海子流淌过。天鹅海上有很多草甸子,说是雪足够厚覆盖着草甸子,就好像天鹅绒一般细腻。这两天的雪尚不足以完全覆盖草甸,略有遗憾。天鹅海虽然有白色天鹅羽翼的装点,但绿草青青还是很舒服的色彩重新上车过箭竹海,此海子得名源于此处生长的是熊猫爱吃的箭竹,据导游说,97年竹子大面积开花过,现在这片海子,完全是新生长的。往下不远就是熊猫海了,这个海子是冬天唯一结冰的海,但没明白为什么,位于3000多米的长海难道不结冰么?熊猫海栈道往里走,可看见完美的远山倒影,这里似乎比镜海还要平静,山的轮廓和树的形状都非常清晰。水面很宽阔,不时地飘起一层水雾,和远山上的起雾相得益彰,把大景观分割成一段一段,层次分明。熊猫海边有些意外收获,看到两个野鸭很自在地在梳理羽毛周围立刻聚集了拍摄的人不过它们完全没有被打扰的感觉接下来,就是最著名的九寨招牌景点五花海了,下五花海有两条路,一条是走熊猫海到五花海栈道,可以看见熊猫海瀑布,为九寨落差最大的叠瀑;另一条是沿着车行公路向下走,可以一观五花海如孔雀开屏般的全景,因这俯瞰的效果,五花海又名孔雀海。([]
俺要预先说明的是,这是个纯粹的户外帖,帖子里没有可以让你们男驴血脉喷张的艳遇激情、打野炮、混帐门之类的情节,也不会有0元穷游的嘘头,更没有黄色的图片。这里要讲述的,只是一个傻乎乎的老农民,不远千里独自去喜马拉雅山区,看雪山走山路不太艰苦的故事。 俺是一个山区农民,平时除了下地种庄稼和背着山货去城里贩卖外,也经常接一点私活。俺们山村周围经常有城里的户外俱乐部的驴友来玩,他们说平时工作压力大,到山里找点刺激以实现啥人生价值。反正他们城里人说话怪怪的俺都听不明白,他们来了俺就带在他们在山里面到处转,这样一天下来也有百把块的收入。为什么会这么说呢?因为没去之前以为那里的山路很难走,但走过以后才知道那里的山路与俺们山村的没多大区别,这样的山路俺们村里五岁的小孩都能走,大人走起来就像撒泡尿似的轻松自在。这次去尼泊尔玩是受了村里一位小名叫喜蛋的小辈影响,他上过几年的大学有出息了,现在已经出人头地的做了这里8264论坛一个版的版主,而且在城里开了户外用品店和户外俱乐部发了财。他有时候会回到村里面给俺看他电脑上的户外照片,并且教会了俺上网和发图片。他鼓励俺出去看看外国的山村是啥样子的,于是俺就去了尼泊尔的山区,在尼泊尔山里行走的外国驴友、中国游客看起来就像俺村里的村民一样亲切,俺山村的农民也是这样每天背着或挑着农具、肥料去自留地干活。喜蛋在城里面找了个媳妇,他媳妇以前是户外资料网的管理员,也是一位很有出息的姑娘。俺们的山村比较封闭,人也比较朴实。前两年喜蛋带着媳妇回山村一次,村里人以为管理员是和俺们地区专员差不多大的官,于是那天晚上很多村民专门换了新衣服去喜蛋家围观管理员,俺们山里的人就是实诚。驴友们刚开始来俺们山村玩的时候还弄出了点笑话,村里的老年人看到一些城里面来的姑娘、媳妇和不是自己男人的男人睡在一起有些看不惯,因为俺们山里的女人只和自己的男人睡觉。俺就跟村里的老人们解说城里来的驴友都是有文化的人,他们思想开放生活新潮,他们那不是在睡觉而是混账,俺可是一直帮着城里的驴友说好话,后来驴友来的越来越多大家也就见怪不怪啦。好了,啰啰嗦嗦说了一大堆该说点正事了,俺们山里人闲下来的时候就爱唠叨!俺先把一路上晚上住宿过的点列出来啦.....走这条线路的时间:2012年12月6日———17日,一路上除了看山还是看山。PHEDI(帕底)-------POTANA(帕塔娜)-------LANDRUK(兰得隆)-------JHINUDANDA(基诺)------BAMBOO(班布)-------MBC-------ABC(两晚)-------SINUWA(希诺瓦)------CHHOMRONG(从隆)------TADAPANI(塔达帕尼)-----GHOREAPANI(郭卵帕尼)(POONHILL)------TATOPANI(塔突帕尼)后面帖子里的地名俺就用中文来写了,外国字写着挺别扭的。下面先发一点俺去山上走路携带的主要一些装备物品啦.......关于鞋子:看论坛里老驴的帖子里说去山里走路包包和鞋子最重要啦。对此俺特别的重视,就一下子准备了三双鞋子。一双是前两年在县城里买的名牌旅游鞋,要99元人民币呢,它很好用,上山时很轻巧。当从ABC下山走雪路和一些冰路时也不打滑。当地有很多背夫也穿着类似的鞋,于是在山上行走时经常被一些外国驴友当成了背夫,这说明了这种鞋子在山上行走是很管用的呢!还有一双凉鞋,可以在行走时候和旅游鞋轮换着穿,它走起来同样的舒服。再就是一双拖鞋啦,它的用处不大,只有在晒太阳和洗澡时穿它。关于包包:于是出发前在喜蛋的户外俱乐部借了一大一小两个背包,这样走路正好可以一前一后的背两个包,以前给驴友带路时也经常的帮他们背上两个大包习惯了。关于棍子:第一天上山时就看到来往的驴友手中有二条花花绿绿很好看的铁棍子,看了很羡慕,但羡慕归羡慕,俺总不能像小孩子一样看到别人手中有好东西就缠着人家要是不?于是就忍了,当第三天到了一个名叫基诺的地方时终于忍不住了就在路边的树丛中捡了一根树枝整理了一下,再向当地的人家要了一条木棍子,这样俺手中也有二条棍子可以挥舞再也不用羡慕别人啦,哈哈。。。关于保暖衣裤:听说这个时候尼泊尔的山上早晚有些冷就准备了一件厚的羽绒背心和一件薄的羽绒背心,再带上一件秋裤白天可以把它当外裤穿,当早晚冷时就在它的外面套上一条乱七八糟裤子就行啦。关于雨衣:它可以防风、防雨、防雪,就把它当成冲锋衣来穿,效果还算不错,特别在ABC的下雪天穿着下山一样的防雪。关于披肩:在当地买了两条披肩,早晚在房间外面时用它披着防寒,晚上睡觉时把它和抓绒毯混合着盖在身上保暖用。关于抓绒毯:带了两条抓绒毯,一条薄的 睡觉时放在身体下,一条大的盖在身上,然后在大的抓绒毯上盖上一条披肩,再在披肩上盖棉被,这样晚上睡起来温度比较暖和帖身。关于小脸盆:可以在住山上旅馆时用来洗脸和内衣裤,它基本上没有份量,带着很有用。关于三脚架:这个就简单了 ,当到了一个位置想要到此一游时又没人帮你拍时,三脚架就可以用上啦。关于枕头:俗话说“外国的金枕头、银枕头不如自己熟悉的布枕头”,每家旅馆的枕头的软度、厚度都有些不一样,带上平时用的舒服的枕头能准每天的睡眠质量关于午餐肉:在博卡拉的超市看到有四川产的猪肉罐头,只要150卢比,就没舍得不买。于是就买三个带上山,这样在从出发到MBC时都天天有肉吃。关于葡萄酒:出发上山前在博卡拉买了一瓶葡萄酒,再向饭店的老板借了一个玻璃杯。博卡拉的商店里有很多的洋酒,比如白兰地、威士忌等等。。。!但俺是农民喝不惯这些洋酒,于是就带了瓶葡萄酒上去,喝了三天就喝完啦。关于苹果:上山前买了三公斤的苹果,这样每天吃上几个肠胃很舒服,当走到MBC时正好吃完。关于袋装果珍粉每天早上出发时候冲上一瓶有些浓度的果珍,当在上山途中身体疲惫时喝上一小口可以很快的恢复状态。这比较在山上买商店的饮料或瓶装水要经济实用。关于药品:俺们山里人的身体没有城市里的驴友那么娇贵要不停的吃药,平时有点小毛小病的抗抗就过去了,在这方面俺比山里的乡亲讲究了一点,俺带了一瓶复方黄连素,万一肚子不舒服的时候可以用它,很管用。作为一个山村农民想下决心国外太难了。俺们村里有个农民名叫王二狗,他经常隔个四五天走六、七十里的山路去城里贩卖山货,用你们户外的话来说他也算是俺们村里的十大徒步人物。他有时也帮着城里户外俱乐部的驴友带路,喜蛋已经把村里的一些闲置劳动力发展成了户外领队,城里驴友的钱特别容易赚,以前几个没事做的劳力现在都是快乐的户外领队啦。二狗现在手里有点钱了,但你要他也像很多驴友那样 花好多钱去很远的地方 走一些平时都在走的山路 他可不愿意,他说还要挣很多钱给她儿子盖个大房子讨媳妇呢。俺那里的人就是思想保守不懂得像你们城里面的驴友那样会享受生活!先发一张小环线、ABC的旅游地图,这是在路上的一个指示牌上拍的。12月6日第一天:博卡拉————PHEDI(帕底)————POTANA(帕塔娜) 10:00———1540 步行五个多小时 上午从博卡拉打了个出租车去上山走路的起点——帕底,车费46元人民币,下了车就可以从公路边的石阶上山,从帕底开始走的好处是一路都是正面对着安娜普纳尔峰与鱼尾峰。绝大部分的游客、驴友都把NAYAPOOLA作为步行小环线的起点,从帕第出发走小环线的这条线路只有零零星星的外国驴友才走。一路上要路过过去很多的小山村在步行到较高的位置时回望下面的峡谷这里的有些山路铺的整整齐齐比俺们村里的土山路要好走多啦。快到东布寺时天气有些飘云层了,鱼尾峰与安娜普纳尔躲在云里若隐若现。。。快到十二点时在一个小店的天台上喝酒休息,包里的三个肉罐头可以拿出一个来吃了,在这个十二天的步行中只喝了4次啤酒,他们的价格分别是:东布寺是25元人民币一瓶啤酒班布是38元人民币一罐啤酒ABC是54元人民币一罐啤酒郭卵帕尼去往塔突帕尼的路上小店是19元人民币一瓶啤酒菜单上的啤酒价格吃饭休息后继续前行。。。村民们在自己房子前的场地有棒棒打那些收上来的稻谷当地的鸡和俺们村里一样都是散养的,这样鸡味道会好吃很多。城里面的驴友去俺们山里玩的时候大多是吃的肚皮滚滚圆圆后才回城。经过了第一个门票检查站,12天的步行中要经过好几个检查站查票盖章。([]

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([]
