长篇纪实连载 迷茫的山林(上) ——走进豫西熊耳山 念奴娇.熊耳山 群峰竞秀,若熊耳,山林一片苍莽。 全宝鹰嘴与花山,突兀向天高昂。 春风荡绿,夏雨唱溪,秋来叶红果香。 林海雪原,鲵蛙鸟兽乱闯。 而今吾来探访,不惧山高,不怕峡漫长, 那山那水那沟壑,缘何几多迷茫? 一曰路丢,一曰雾锁,一曰林海凉。 格物铭志,述与后者共享。 前 言 熊耳山,属秦岭东段支脉,是河南省级森林和野生动物类型的自然保护区之一,也是豫西主要山脉之一,居于河洛之间,西起卢氏,东延伊川,南接伏牛,北邻崤山,横跨栾川、嵩县、洛宁、宜阳四县,面积3.4万公顷,海拔1000-2100米。其森林似海、沟壑纵横、奇峰林立、层峦叠嶂、飞瀑流云、珍禽竞奔、万鸟争鸣,是豫西较大的一处集中连片原始林区。 走进熊耳山,对于我而言,也是近几年的事儿。 之所以我开笔来写熊耳山,原因大体如下: 首先,熊耳山的迷茫之美,令我刻骨铭心。山高、林密、峡长、沟深、水清、潭幽、路小、岔多、云绕、雾锁、......行走其间,疑窦丛生,抬头看天天苍苍,低头看地地茫茫,去时混沌沌,回来费思量,东西不好辨,南北无方向,几番迷途心存怯,几多向导也癫狂,哈哈!愈是迷茫,愈是难忘! 其次,熊耳山的原始之美,使我心旷神怡。看倦了高楼林立的闹市,厌烦了人声鼎沸的车海,穿越了纷繁吵杂的战场,跨过了意气风发的年轮,背起行囊,返璞归真,走进原始生动的大自然真好,而熊耳山的茂密森林、静谧峡谷、山水鸟兽、花果溢香、古朴田园、醇厚民风,呵呵!常来常新,乐此不疲! 其三,熊耳山的山水之美,可谓风景如画。全宝山漆林遍布,祖师庵气宇非凡;鹰嘴山风骚界岭,杜鹃花万亩浸染;花果山孙猴老家,仰天池高坐山涧;莲花顶道教圣地,白马涧潭溪玉连;鳔池村无独有偶,胡地村群山四环;......四季景色各不同,咋走都在画中行,嘿嘿!年年岁岁,不来不行! 其四,熊耳山的故事之美,让我浮想联翩。王莽寨、韩王坟、仰天池、神灵寨、红娘子沟、演兵场、跑马岭、饮马池、拴马桩、藏兵洞、......一个名字,一页历史,一个故事,一段传说,或惊心动魄,兵来将往,或凄美委婉,优雅动听,尽管历史不会重演,但是感悟而今永远,啧啧!余音绕梁,回味无穷! 多次出行,串联成册,是因为次次线路不同但又密切相关,是因为回回来去匆匆一木难成林,是因为每每牵肠挂肚很想把全景呈送。 当然,我不是探险家,很难把熊耳山的山水沟坎都探索一遍,我不是摄影家,不会把满目的美景塞进我的镜头,我不是文学家,无法用更美的语言来描述,我不是史学家,难以把某一段壮美的史话呈现,我不是地质学家,不能把那山那水的来龙去脉说个详细,我更不是动植物学家,满山遍野的花草树木还真是知之甚少,......我,就是我,一个乐山好水的背包客,一个不辞辛苦的徒步者,一个似懂非懂的摄影者,一个半荤半素的文学爱好者,仅此而已。 所以,所经,所历,所见,所闻,所摄,所写,所感,所悟,......你不必太认真,我和盘托出,你趁热咽下,味道不错,你接着来,嫌甜嫌淡,你就扔一边好了。 目 录第一回 俩鳔池南辕北辙,众驴儿极限穿越。 4--30楼第二回 坐蹦蹦车翻山越岭,下白马涧暴雨倾盆。 32-73楼第三回 鳔池村群英荟萃,下涧果夜半狂欢。 204-241楼第四回 白马涧中赏心悦目,五里渠下再遭天浴 311--358楼第五回 神灵寨二度探访,玉皇殿小驴欢歌 367--389楼第六回 刘后坡初识莲花顶,胡地村难觅洞子沟 468--524楼第七回 穿林海野趣横生,吉向导疯狂纵情 532--600楼第八回 瑶池畔氧吧野营,五瀑下幽谷倩影 636--681楼第九回花山村小休觅来路,七峪沟水污桃花香 684--721楼——《迷茫的山林(上)》到此结束————《迷茫的山林(下)》即将开始—— 第一回俩鳔池南辕北辙,众驴儿极限穿越 我第一次走进熊耳山,是在某年的6月20日-22日。 盛夏已经来临,火辣辣的太阳把大地变成了一个火炉。 连天户外的“沙漠”发帖,说是去熊耳山腹地的“奇妙水世界---白马涧休闲徒步穿越”,也没有多想,就冲着那个“水”字去了。 我真的没有想到,就此开始,我和熊耳山就结下了一连串婆娑迷离的渊源。 闲言少叙,书归正转。 周五晚7:30准时成行,一看同行的驴儿,一半生来一半熟,6女14男,嗨,够热闹的吧! 上车,出发。4个小时的路程,闲话不少,正话也就领队弥勒佛的“户外无小事”还算中肯。 下车,扎营。营地设在嵩县吴沟村口农家打麦场上,黑灯瞎火的,也没觉着有多好,只看着场上麦垛嶙嶙,听见场下河水哗哗,场面平平,扎十多顶帐篷不成问。 山乡的夜空瓦蓝瓦蓝,凌乱的星辰闪闪烁烁,农家的狗儿汪汪狂吠,水中的青蛙歌声嘹嘹,…… 唉,这样的夜晚你说美不美?扎好帐篷,大家睡意全无,有人又摆起了地摊,说说笑笑喝起酒来,究竟是闹到两点还是三点,我不清楚,反正我睡得迷迷糊糊,还听到他们在说话。 我不大喜欢喝酒,也就没去凑这个热闹。此时此刻,我想静静地感受一下这山村的凉风,回忆一丝童时睡麦场的感觉,于是,坐在河边的石头上,点上一支烟,悠哉游哉,心猿意马了好一会儿,才进帐睡觉。因为凉爽,睡得很香很甜! 一觉醒来,天已经大亮,早起的驴儿开始来回走动,洗脸唰牙,梳头化妆。我起来得不算太晚,懒洋洋爬出帐篷,从容容收帐入包,拿起灶具,走向不远的河边,用村民们从山上引下来的甘泉做饭,可能是山水清纯,做出来的饭好吃得很哩! 面对向日葵色板官方这群身着奇装异服的不速之客,山村的大人小孩都来看热闹,稀奇呀!有人说向日葵色板官方是来拍电影的,有人说向日葵色板官方是来搞勘探的,当得知向日葵色板官方的来意之后,他们得出的结论是:吃饱了,噌的慌!! 山乡的晨曦很美很美,美的让人心醉!在山峦重叠间,一轮红日冉冉升起,给偏僻寂静的小村披上了万道霞光;在绿荫环抱之中,小山村玲珑幽雅,悠然自得,正是野居深山自不知,猛然回眸若桃源;一条蜿蜒在峡谷中的公路切村而过,垂直于公路的吴沟向天池山最高峰王莽寨方向伸去,三面环山山色翠,两河交汇水草鲜;朴实勤劳的山民,男的地里锄玉米,女的下河洗衣衫,几个顽皮的小家伙,跑前跑后玩的好开心! 基于此,有人戏称向日葵色板官方当晚宿营在“四星级宾馆”,你说象吗?嗨,嗨,我看也有点味道,最起码不热不冷,不烦不躁,空气新鲜,环境幽雅,比寒舍睡着美多了! 大约8:30,向日葵色板官方开始出发了,顺着吴沟,向着王莽岭的方向。 按照既定方针,我们本次驴途是一次无向导穿越活动,向日葵色板官方无法得知,领队弥勒佛研究了多少次这条线路,只知道弥勒佛把线路要点记得很清楚:从吴家沟村上山,登上王莽寨,下到鳔池村,翻过一个山梁,下到白马涧,顺水而下到沟口公路乘车。为了保险起见,弥勒佛还带上了GPS定位系统,防备不测之遇。 准备的不算不周全,设计的不算不合理,唉,出发时谁也没有想到,两大漏洞在悄悄的等待着向日葵色板官方呀! 漏洞之一:向日葵色板官方要去的是洛宁的鳔池村,没有人知道嵩县也有一个鳔池村,而且南辕北辙,相距甚远。一个内涵生僻字的村名,就这么金贵呀!我晕,同去的驴儿都晕呀! 漏洞之二:GPS定位系统的偏差,是向日葵色板官方时料不及的。你向一个方向走的时候,它提示正确或者不给提示,当你走过100米或者更远的时候,它开始不断提示错误,请原路返回。户外活动,穿山越岭司空见惯,这样的折腾来折腾去,你说可怕不? 当然,这两大漏洞,是向日葵色板官方事后才体会到的,实践出真知吗!不过,当时,谁也不知道呀! 顺着吴沟行进大约2公里左右,开始右拐爬向一个山梁,尽管不算太高,但是适值五黄六月,太阳好大,闷热闷热,大家无不汗流浃背,湿透衣衫。唉,驴儿吗,要的就是这个效果,汗,这东西出足出够,没有它就不出了! 在吴沟村里,弥勒佛向老乡咨询过,鳔池很远的,翻过两个山梁就进入一个道路很宽的峡谷,穿过鞍沟村,继续向前再问人吧! 嵩县的山民,自然指向的是嵩县的鳔池村了,向日葵色板官方都在雾里呀! 翻过一架山梁,再翻过一架山梁,进入一条峡谷,峡谷里有一个不大的山村——鞍沟,村民住的零零乱乱的,三户五户一疙瘩,依山傍水,景色秀美。 又是一个山梁,山梁之下有一块很大的花生地,和山民说的相投,也就继续行进了。回头一看,胖乎乎跟在我后面,累得够呛,初次驴行遇住个大热天,也够难为他了。掏出相机,拍下几张照片,就又匆匆前行了。 走下山梁,就顺利的进入了另一条大峡谷,绿波荡漾,风光旖旎,不过,有点累,也就没有心思去欣赏了。 顺着峡谷不停的行进,因为路道平坦,也不是很疲惫,都有点飘飘然了,唧唧喳喳,驴情骚动起来。 不远,就到了另一个叫瓦房沟的村子,时间已经是中午11:30,驴儿们也都累了,没经领队弥勒佛同意,我和几个前行的驴儿就此安营扎寨,午营就在这里了。 天气异常怄热,热的人身上在流油! 在一个山民的家里,走疲了的驴儿开始驻足休整,水龙头里有山民引下的泉水,喝上几口,甜丝丝的,好美! 因为这家院里没有树,火烧火燎的,有点难受,我继续下走,穿进了另一个农家,正屋上锁,屋檐宽宽,核桃树下树荫凉爽,桃树叶间青果诱人。 找一根木棍捣碎蒜泥,下一锅挂面配上青菜,一大碗蒜面条下肚,哈!哈!饱了!从体内到心情,一股温馨的暖流在不断的升腾!屋檐下,几个驴儿又耍起了地摊,锅碗瓢勺,林林总总,煎煎炒炒,乒乒乓乓,埋火造起饭来。 来时带了三个甜瓜,好沉!餐后再啃点水果,好甜! 掏出相机,留下这美妙的瞬间;晃悠浏览,环顾这秀丽的山乡;一不小心,鸡儿叨走了番茄;隔墙有耳,村妇听走了向日葵色板官方的俚语! 又要启程了,弥勒佛找来了准备上山采药的山民作向导。当然,此时已经知道了两个县有两个鳔池村,向日葵色板官方犯了一个方向性错误。 上街的猎户已经走劈了,到瓦房沟村时已经一瘸一拐走不动了。前面的路有多远谁也说不清楚,于是,他选择了退出,沿瓦房沟村继续前行不远就可以见到公路,打电话叫老美来接住,驴途就算结束了。 为了照顾猎户,上街的山人也放弃了随队前行,陪着一起离队。为了减负,巩义的适宜也叫山人和猎户把帐篷带走,大喊大叫着偃师的驴不够意思,没有人主动让她混帐。 事后看来,猎户的选择是明智的。户外活动,必须学会放弃,放弃,也需要勇气,不会放弃,很容易走进可怕的深渊! 如果猎户碍于面子,继续随队前进,我真的不知道,在今后的一天半时间,他将怎样度过,后果将会是什么! 勿庸置疑,由于误入歧途,接下来的行程将充满艰辛和变数,莫测的风险随时都会发生。这一点,我当时就隐隐约约的能够感觉到,因为状态良好,挑战一下也无妨。而随后的际遇,也恰恰证明了我的这个心灵独白。 上山采药的山民是一个40岁上下的中年男子和一个20岁左右的小伙子,他说,可以把向日葵色板官方带进天池山景区,穿过景区,涉过一条漫长的峡谷,就可以跨进洛宁县境内,先到胡地村,再到鳔池村就只有十多里地了。 嗨!嗨!你说复杂不复杂!既来之,则安之,哪怕前面是刀山火海,酷刑油锅,咱也得去闯闯呀! V型反转,继续上山。 毕竟有向导带路,尽管天气更加闷热,尽管一路不断拔高,尽管小道模糊不清,尽管树丛纷纷扰扰,大家似乎吃了定心丸,驴起来还是蛮精神的,速度也在不断的加快。 登上一个山梁,向导指着远山之颠的高耸的发射塔说,我把你们带到塔下,塔下有个垭口,翻过垭口,顺路下行5、6里地,就下到天池山景区的公路了,沿公路前进可以到达景区向日葵视频色板APP官网站,到那里再问路吧! 哎呀,够劲!且不说发射塔所在的那个山恁高(后来听弥勒佛说,此山海拔1400多米呀),从向日葵色板官方站的位置到那个山,还有两个一高一矮的两个山头,隔山指山,大家都有点怵咧! “这塔似曾相识,好像我去过!”胡导说。 “我也觉得!”我说。 “想起来了,像是木札岭的发射塔。你忘了,从老幔场看木札岭上的塔,就是这个感觉呀!”胡导说。 “不错呀,那次向日葵色板官方走劈的一塌糊涂,看来,这次也好不到哪里去!”我说。 向导走的真快,不,几乎是一路小跑。向日葵色板官方鱼贯跟随,下山,上山,穿沟,越岭,路道模糊的几乎看不清,树枝扑甩的脸生疼,就这样走走歇歇,歇歇走走,在那个一丝风儿也不遇的闷热环境下,向日葵色板官方来到了发射塔所在的山下。 向导曾经说过,这里上山的路很陡,也很难走,现在我们大家才领教了啥叫牛瞪眼坡。 本来已经是累得七零八落的驴儿,再遇到这大约65度的山坡,唉,你说受罪不受罪?没法呀,唯一的选择就是打起精神——上! 速度是彻底降下来,三步一歇,五步一停;汗水是彻底出足出够了,毛巾湿透拧拧,再湿透再拧;说话的明显减少了,得省的力气,不能作无为损耗;上太白时没有吃完的巧克力、糖果之类,我也一起报销了。 垭口到了,很宽很阔的U型垭口。向导要与向日葵色板官方分手了,上山采药去了,向日葵色板官方一行也该大歇一会儿了。 哈!哈!再看看向日葵色板官方这群驴儿的尊容,要多狼狈有多狼狈,男士都是赤脊巴梁,女士我就不敢形容了,再看看大家的脸,用胡导的话说,都跟用破鞋底子抽过的差不多! 吃点东西,歇歇脚,气儿顺多了。赶紧打开相机,每人来张特写,谁说他不狼狈,我可有照片为证哩!丑就丑点吧,咱丑的气派呀! 驴途还在延伸,片刻的惬意很快就过去了。背起行囊下山,感觉好多了。毕竟一路下坡,很快就走上了天池山景区的公路。 曲曲弯弯的水泥路在向着深山延伸,走在景区的驴儿前后相距大约有一里多地,原因很简单,有人走劈了,有人脚泡了,连著名的巩义恶驴适宜都不由得发出感叹:你们这伙驴,真玩命呀! 天池山国家森林公园,位于河南省嵩县西北部王莽寨林场境内,景区观赏面积4万亩,森林覆盖率98.57%,其中栖息和生长着野生动物184种,植物1800余种,主峰王莽寨1859.6米,年均降水量812毫米,年最高气温28℃,景区山静如眠,绿荫如盖,水清如滤,石洁如洗,是中原地区风格独特的生态旅游胜地。 其实,一路走来,向日葵色板官方也没有看到什么好的精致,可能是景在深处我未知吧! 不过,路过的刘秀藏兵洞,还是让我心中掠过一分惊喜。与景区主峰王莽寨联系起来,可以想象,当年王莽和刘秀这对冤家,在此肯定有一番惊心动魄的交手,至于故事的来龙去脉,不得而知。 当过驴儿的都知道,大马路是最难走的,地面太平,杠脚呀!景区的路真好,驴儿享受不起;景区的道真长,驴儿走得好辛苦! 终于,向日葵色板官方走到了一个游客济济的地方,河水哗哗而下,河畔垂柳丝丝,停车场开阔宽畅,歇息地廊倩座多,众游客频频回首,向日葵视频色板APP官网社啥货都有。 放下和血肉混为一体的大包,徜徉一番人间天堂的天池山胜景,痛快! 向景区的人一打听,大家倒吸了一口凉气。从向日葵视频色板APP官网站继续前行二里,下水泥路,进入一个名叫洞子沟的十里大峡谷,出沟即到达胡地村,从胡地村到鳔池村大约又是十几里山路。而且,山里人的“里”似乎有点大,往往比度量衡的“里”相去甚远。 此时,驴群里驴情开始有些骚动,走劈的看来不是少数,都希望就此安营扎寨。当然,说心里话,我也很希望就此驻足,因为,从上午8:30到现在下午6:30,驴蹄就没有闲过,基本上也属于走劈一族了。 于是乎,纷纷去向领队弥勒佛提建议。弥勒佛的回答很简单:不行!原因吗,距鳔池村太远,明天白马涧走不完。 我坚信,此时的弥勒佛比别人也好不到那里,但是,他是领队,是驴队的灵魂呀!他如果同意停下,谁也不会说啥,只不过,明天再下白马涧的可能性等于零。 这就是领队的素质!这就是驴队的精神!“放弃”不会轻言,“前进”的脚步不能停下!真的,我越来越喜欢弥勒佛领队了! 再留恋这里也不行,因为这是驴队,不是游团。领队命令一下,是不允许异向思维的,最好的选择是服从! 天色不早,赶路要紧。 毕竟都是一群久经沙场的老驴,无论是男是女,是老是少,没有一个人下软蛋,开拔的号令一下,你看谁比谁走的欢。 公路很快到头,洞子沟就在眼前。 前进!前进!在峡谷中,沿着水边! 溪水哗哗低吟,驴儿沙沙蹄疾,除此之外,什么声音也没有了,寂静的山涧有点恐怖,走劈的驴儿有点心惊。 起初,还可以见到明显的路眼,越往里走,小道就模糊不清了。 我是走在中间的,前后都是谁也记不清了。前面开路的,大概是胡导吧,这驴有点恨路;后面收队的肯定不是洲洲(看来,组织部门肯定受贿了!)可能是胖乎乎吧! 夜幕悄悄降临了,驴儿疲疲的串行着。 弥勒佛提醒大家,拿出头灯,前后跟紧,小心脚下,注意安全! 我真的有点崩溃了,两条腿好似灌了铅,每走一步都是说不出的难受;我真的有点瞌睡了,两眼涩涩的,好想倒在密布的落叶上迷糊一会儿;我真的有点饿肚了,中午的一大碗面条不顶事的,饥的心慌;我真的有点干渴难耐了,从早到晚喝了十斤水,全部变汗出尽了;我真的有点不想走了,只要有一个人提出就地躺下不走,我会毫不犹豫的跟随,管它是草叶还是碎石,胡乱地睡上一觉再说;…… “近期不出来了,本来是出来休闲哩,这简直是在毁身体呀!”不知是谁如是说。 不知不觉,身边不见了水流;稀里糊涂,驴道在不断拔高;你言我语,抱怨之声四起;恍恍惚惚,树丛崎岖难行。 “走错路了!GPS定位系统提示,原路返回!”弥勒佛说。 “不敢再相信GPS了!百米之内有误差,走时不提示,走过了才提示错误。还是下去沿河水走吧”洲洲说。 “唉,房露偏遇连阴雨呀!”这是崩溃背洲洲游记里的一句话,贴切呀! 啥办法?再嘟囔也不中呀!不管爬上了多高的山崖,还得乖乖地都给下来吧! 倒霉呀!我那几十块钱买的包罩,也不知道啥时候,让那飞舞的树枝给挂走了,因为走得靠前,原路返回的时候,我落到了最后,当我发现时,再找已经晚了,心疼呀! 下!下!下!终于见到水了,继续顺河走! 有人提议,真的走不动了,就地宿营吧!——真是心声呀! 可洲洲说:“水不干净呀,有毒的,咋宿营呀!”刚进峡谷的时候,水真的发黄,都看见了。 “让我下去看看!”正好,我就在河边,一扭身就下去了,在一滩水旁,用头灯照着,观察水里的情况。 “扑噜!扑噜!”究竟是青蛙,还是鱼儿,受惊后游走了,我也没有弄清楚,反正有活东西存在哩! “没事,水会吃!”我说。 “就住这里了!可斜坡树丛,咋扎帐呢?”不知是谁说。 也是,连驴儿都站的东扭西歪、高低参差的,扎帐肯定不成! 我用头灯下意识的向河对岸一照,似乎一片地够平。我说:“让我上去看看!” 哈!哈!头灯照住的平地后面是一条小路,小路那面是更大一块平地,扎十几顶帐篷绰绰有余哩! “都过来吧!营地大大地有!”我兴奋的招呼大家。 卸下沉重的大包,伸开眷恋的彩条布,坐在上面喘了好长时间气,吸了两支烟,还是有点不想动。无奈,肚里太饥,开包取出一个大甜瓜,咔咔嚓嚓,一坐窝连皮带蒂吃了个精光,好极! 别人都开始撑帐、做饭了,我还是懒洋洋的不想动弹。临帐的弥勒佛更痛快,饭也不吃,就钻帐睡觉了。 唉!还得做饭呀——饥!简单点吧,开水+核桃奶粉+盐+醋+番茄+两个烧饼,因为出汗太多,光吃甜的可不中呀!嘿!嘿!真的不好吃睐!——硬咽!今生今世这顿饭吃的,空前绝后! 撑帐,睡觉。迷迷糊糊,不知是谁的歌声真好听! 经洲洲提议,大家一致通过,向日葵色板官方把这块营地命名为 “王老大营地”!次日,弥勒佛说,此营地位居洞子沟中央,前后想再找这么大一块营地都难呀!真是踏破铁鞋无觅处,得来全不费功夫,俺王老大也真牛了一把咧! 第二回 坐蹦蹦车翻山越岭,下白马涧暴雨倾盆 这一夜睡得好香! 都6:30了,躺在帐篷里还是不想出来。拉开帐篷一看,不少驴儿都起来了,唉,还是起来吧,弥勒佛说了,8:30准时出发! 洗脸,收帐,做饭。 昨晚睡下之后,飘柔还在咣咣当当的切红萝卜,早餐时请星空炸了两个烧饼,就上红萝卜,吃的还算有味。 临帐的胖乎乎说,与他同帐的弥勒佛早上五点多就起床了,饭也没有吃,就一个人到前面探路去了。唉,当个领队辛苦呀! 小鱼儿和另一个女驴脚上打了泡,剪破,挤净,用创可贴沾了。唉,可以想象,再驴起来,有多难受!([]
乌孙是公元前二世纪崛起于新疆伊犁河流域的西域古国,鼎盛时期人口达到63万,一度成为西域三十六国最强大的国家,在伊利草原留下了悠久的璀璨历史。东汉末年,乌孙内乱国势羸弱,在鲜卑的攻击下退入葱岭散居,至今天山深处还残留着乌孙古城遗迹。 乌孙向南越过天山沿塔里木河东行直至长安,是乌孙与汉朝使团、商队往来的通道。乌孙(包扎墩)古道与夏特古道相距近200公里,均是连接天山南北的通道,被统称为乌孙古道。 60多年前,一支军队成功连穿了两条古道,1946年,已经控制伊宁地区的三区民族军制订了南北中三线作战计划,南线作战部队于1946年6月从伊犁州特克斯县琼库什台村出发,翻过包扎墩达坂,穿过130公里长的乌孙古道越过天山进击南疆,攻占了拜城和温宿县,在攻打南疆重镇阿克苏失利后,又于10月突破国民党军队在夏特古道的阻击撤回北疆。 向日葵色板官方计划重走60年前的这条行军路线,先从北到南穿越乌孙古道,再从南到北反穿夏特古道回到北疆。 这是一场没能最终完成的旅行,当旅行戛然而止的那一刻心中满是沮丧。无奈和惆怅渐渐淡去,伴随着记忆的回放,那些不断泛起的点点滴滴却总是试图提醒我,这已经是一场完美旅行。 利空出尽是利好 研究路线做好攻略,接下来就是招兵买马,每年的寻伴总是个难,今年也不例外。原计划组建六人队伍,可是折腾了几个月,临到出发前一个月才勉强凑够四个人。 以前每一次旅行都没有超过两人,所以四人的庞大队伍已经让我很是满意,不过,即使是这样低水平的满意也没能持续多久,出发前第9天,一个队员因事要求退出。通常情况少一个人也不打紧,在人数问上我早就习惯了随遇而安,但走这条有些风险的线路,少一个负责技术和安全的核心队员,简直就是釜底抽薪。剩下两位同伴让我心里直打鼓,一个是价真货实的路痴型傻走驴简单,另一个是对线路毫不关心的摄影迷老米(米老鼠)。 简单一门心思痴迷于走路,但从不去关心怎么走,她说看到攻略和地图上的花花碌碌就头晕的厉害,我也就没强逼鸭子上架。 老米忙着研究负重拍片功略也不会去关心徒步攻略,老米这是第二次徒步,第一次负重,为了凑够人数,在我软硬兼施的动员下好不容易才把他给拉入队伍,他原本不是路痴,处于对二十年老友的盲目信任让他自甘堕落成了路痴。 虽然都是两眼一抹黑,路痴甲和路痴乙却具有强烈的革命乐观主义精神,他俩意见高度统一,“队长,怕啥呢,走不通回头是岸。”很干脆的把一大堆烦恼丢给了我。 去年穿越乌孙古道的小蜜蜂特意叮嘱我,三个人过科克苏河上的溜索基本不可能,那些溜索绑在离地近三米高的树干上,人手太少很难把人托举起挂上溜索,除非你能像猴子一样爬树。在那些纠结的日子里,不止一次梦到自己出现了严重的返祖现象。 纠结的日子里利空消息传来,科克苏河上的溜索已经被洪水冲断,线路受阻,于是紧急研究备用路线方案——绕道溜索上游木桥多走两天多翻三个达坂完成穿越。 备用方案还没捂热,更大的利空接踵而至,而且是坏事成双——溜索上游所有的木桥都被洪水冲毁,必经之路科克苏河已经无法逾越+夏特大冰壁断裂,线路有大变动。 这些不能回避又没法证实的坏消息让人头疼,我试图把这些重大利空与甲乙同志分享,两同志沉浸在徒步装备购置和摄影器材添置带来的网购快乐中,显然无暇它顾,不过他们的意见仍然很统一,“队长,别怕,走不通回头另找一条路走就是。”似乎天山里通向南疆的坦途多如牛毛。 我只能心怀侥幸的安慰自己——兴许,利空出尽就该是利好了吧。 反复研究路上可能会遇到的困难,保护措施也独个儿演练了好几次(甲乙同志都很忙,没空参与),心里还是忐忑不安,骨灰级路痴已经指望不上,只能叮嘱自称地理高考98分(20年前还是100分制)的老米认真研究攻略,我想,路上有个人商量总是能壮壮胆。 第二天,老米兴奋的告诉我,“攻略看完了,搞半天才弄明白向日葵色板官方队伍是先走乌孙再走夏特呀!”说完顺便问了一句:“背几个镜头合适些?三脚架带哪种?”直接打消了我拉人壮胆的幻想。 出发前了解到今年还有几支队伍进乌孙,一交流才发现很不对劲,几乎每支队伍都是经过多次拉练层层筛选淘汰才组建起来,对这些队伍来讲,走过墨脱就自称强驴的人连参加拉练的资格都没有,选拔队员的准最低也是特种兵级别。 回头再看向日葵色板官方生拉活拽勉强凑成的队伍,怎么看怎么像草台班子,不过心里还是暗自庆幸,幸亏我们是今年第一支溜进山的穿越队伍,否则在路上遇到特种兵,民兵们多半都不好意思招呼。老米老友第二次徒步第一次负重 八卦城 9月19日清晨8点35分,从乌鲁木齐出发的5815次列车驶进伊宁市火车站,提前联系好的王师傅(王正林13519993637)已经等在火车站门口,坐上车就直奔徒步起点——特克斯县琼库什台村。 特克斯是乌孙古国夏都所在地,现在的特克斯县城始建于1938年,因完全依据后天八卦图建成而得名八卦城。 据特克斯县志记载,南宋嘉定三年,道教全真七子之一的丘处机应成吉思汗的邀请前往西域,在游历天山的途中,发现了特克斯这块“风水龙脉”,丘处机用后天八卦图确定了坎北、离南、震东、兑西的八卦方位,这就是特克斯八卦城雏型的最早传说。 1936年,新疆军阀盛世才的岳父宗秋浚调任伊犁屯垦使兼警备司令,精通易理的宗秋浚也发现了特克斯这块风水宝地,他亲自设计了八卦城图,1938年,特克斯县县长班吉春开始主持修建八卦城。 八卦城堪称《周易》八卦学说与城市规划实践完美结合的经典之作,八卦城以城中心花园为太极“阴阳”两仪,按八卦方位向外辐射八条主街,每条主街长1200米,每隔360米一条环路,一环8条街,二环16条街,三环32条街,四环64条街。这些街道按八卦方位形成了64卦,整个八卦城栩栩如生的演绎了《周易》学说的深奥内涵,简直是建筑史上的奇迹。进山前在特克斯县最后一次进餐,所以这碗大号牛肉面端上来后,我又另添了一份牛肉和一份面条 路痴甲培训路痴乙 从特克斯县出来很快进山,拐进河谷,眼前的水电工地干得热火朝天,面对挖得乱七八糟的道路,王师傅有些傻眼,他说去年来的时候这里的河谷静悄悄。 一辆水泥搅拌车突突的开过来,开车师傅竟然是王师傅的熟人,一阵寒暄后,在他的指点下东绕西绕终于绕上进山的碎石路。 百无聊赖中,简单竟然破天荒的关心起线路来,听到简单漫不经心的随口一问,老米立马来了精神,临时抱佛脚掏出功略开始认真讲解起来。忙着现炒现卖着意卖弄的老米,显然没注意到简单已经听的昏昏欲睡,忍不住嘀咕了一句,“路痴甲培训路痴乙。” 老米讪笑着住了口。 琼库什台村 翻过山口,蕴积已久的乌云终于垮下脸,雨开始下个不停,山谷里浓雾弥漫,能见度极低,王师傅紧握着方向盘,汽车缓慢滑行在泥泞的下山道上,雨雾中向日葵色板官方抵达了徒步起点——琼库什台牧业村。 下车后,开始重新打包收拾,一群哈萨克牧民迅速聚集过来,围着向日葵色板官方指指点点议论个不停,出发前拍合影时,看稀奇的牧民们呼啦一下涌进镜头,毫不客气的把几个穿越主角给生生挤到角落里去。 下午三点半,向日葵色板官方在淅淅沥沥的雨中出发。出发前的合影,牧民成了主角,中间这位大汉颇有点舍我其谁的气势 甲可思摸 雨雾在山谷里快速涌动,山林溪流忽隐忽现,向日葵色板官方沿着湿滑泥泞的马道往山谷深处走去,出发后老米显得很兴奋,拿着相机拍得很起劲,泥泞马道上左右穿插频频按动快门,尽管镜头上已是水珠点点,还是时不时的来个雨中静物特写,队伍走走停停简直就像是幼儿园的春游。 琼库什台村是哈萨克族牧民聚居点,不时有骑马牧民赶着牛羊回村,入秋后天气渐冷,天山深处的达坂已经积雪,牧民开始从深山牧场往村子里撤,牛背马背上驮着大捆大捆的家当。 沿途牧民总是向向日葵色板官方投来好奇的目光,路上临时抱佛脚学了一句哈萨克语的“你好”——甲可思摸,这下终于能派上用场,于是见人就是“甲可思摸”,把迎面而来的牧民挨个“摸”了一遍,尽管“摸”得很认真,老米有时还帮着“摸”,有些牧民甚至连“摸”了好几遍,向日葵色板官方殷勤的劳动却没有收获热情的果实。 大多数牧民骑在高头大马上傲然斜睨,神色冷然,骑马的看不起走路的我能理解,自古以来,骑兵瞧不起步兵本就是一种光荣传统。所以,偶尔有骑兵点点头就会引来向日葵色板官方使劲的“摸”,偶尔有骑兵赏脸回“摸”步兵一下,这一“摸”总是让我很激动。驮着全副家当回村的牧民,这头牛长的有些喜剧,像是戴着白色面具 再来一次? 进山的道路沿着溪流左岸缓慢爬升,穿出树林,雨水更加稠密,茫茫白雾笼罩着山野,哗哗的流水声回荡在山谷。 云雾中行走,向日葵色板官方对风景的期待已经降到最低准,偶尔浓雾倏忽散开,那仿若施舍般显露出来的茵茵草地和山谷木屋,总是引得我和老米手忙脚乱,很没出息的抢着掏相机。 斜坡上马道泥泞湿滑,泥浆被牲口践踏得一团糟,所谓马道,现在看起来就是马走起来很爽,人走起来很不爽的道路。不愿在泥浆里深一脚浅一脚的踩,改走上斜坡草地,不料绿茵草地积满水更加湿滑,暗藏杀机。 没走出多远,支撑脚一滑,身体陡然歪斜,肩上压着70斤的重量,担心受伤不敢硬拧,把相机紧搂在怀里,侧身重重的倒在泥水里,慢慢的爬起身,已成了个泥人。 老米和简单呆呆的看我表演,连忙转头问老米:“拍照了没有?”两人连连摇头,看到我遗憾的表情,老米说,“或者,你再来一次?”斜坡草地,看上去很美,狼狈不堪的从地上爬起来,满脸是泥 邀请来得太早 爬上山坡,道旁木屋里走出一个年轻女子,在雨中径直向向日葵色板官方走来,用生硬的汉语招呼着:“休息不?吃饭不?”反复问了几遍又用手做出扒饭的动作。 走在山谷里,沿途擦身而过的牧民都显得很冷淡,突然走出个年轻女子这么热情的邀请,巨大的反差让我有点受宠若惊。 通常在旅行途中,别说这样热情的邀请没法拒绝,即使是蹭吃蹭喝的机会偶尔乍现,都会让我忙不迭的扑上去。 回头看看老米和简单,他们对年轻女人的热情邀请显得无动于衷,的确,年轻女人的邀请来得太早了些,即使在冰冷的雨水中走路很不爽,可是才走一个多小时就让他们停下来吃喝享乐,老米可能无所谓,简单多半打死也不从。 悻悻婉拒了女人的热情邀请,继续向雨雾弥漫的山谷深处走去,走出很远,还心欠欠的频频回头张望。 路痴定律 雨水无休止的倾泻,内衣已经湿透,气温降得很低,就在卸包吃馕那一小会儿功夫,双手很快就冻僵,连馕饼都拿捏不住。 走到近7点半,道旁又是一座空置的木屋,新疆的天空到9点钟才全黑,拿不准天黑前还能不能遇到木屋,这样的坏天气在泥泞的草地上扎营简直就是一场悲剧。 在木屋里扎营,老米没意见,简单却很不乐意。 简单已经冲到前面很远,被叫回来时满脸的不情愿,她说刚开始兴奋起来,状态正好走的正带劲就叫停当然很不爽。不情不愿的卸下包,简单还舍不得进屋,带着没走满意的无奈表情,独个儿在雨中转悠了几圈又主动提出去河边提水。 简单高高兴兴提着水桶去河边继续过瘾,我和老米燃起篝火,身上的衣服都快烤干,简单还没回来,心中有些惴惴不安,正准备出门找人,简单带着满身水汽闯进来,满脸惊惶地说:“糟糕,迷路了,差点我就回不来了!” 到100米远的地方打水也会迷路?我和老米面面相觑,都有点回不过神来。 细问才弄明白,简单来到坡下的小溪,装满水桶掉头就走,走到一个断崖边才发觉走错了路,既然已经走晕了头,路痴驴肯定弄不明白自己走到了哪里,也弄不明白自己是怎么走到这里来的。呼喊了几声没有回应,简单这下慌了神,提着水桶东奔西跑,却总也走不出山沟,后来糊里糊涂从某个地方钻出来,看到木屋才好不容易摸回来。 “打水后你怎么就没按原路返回呢?”老米觉得不可思议。 “转过身就糊涂了,以为走的就是原路哒,每次都这样,只要我认为方向是正确的,那一定已经弄错了。”简单一脸的无辜,显得很委屈。 老米是第一次领教简单的路痴绝活,很有些后怕,“早知道这样,应该把救生哨给你带在身上,迷路了就吹哨。” “哨子解决不了问,以后简单去打水得给她配个向导。”路痴驴的路痴本色我曾经深刻领教过,已经是有点见惯不惊,不过看到老米对简单的路痴本质认识还不够深刻,忍不住开口提醒他。 经过了这茬,对路痴驴的保护开始形成制度,行进队型严格固定——我开路,老米收队,简单夹在中间。同时明确了三条纪律——绝对不允许简单冲到队伍前面或在队伍后面逗留;行进途中,必须确保简单始终处于我和老米至少一人的视线以内;绝对禁止简单同学的营地活动超过视线范围(嘘嘘除外)。 这才刚出发,简单就给向日葵色板官方来了个下马威,路痴定律随之出炉——只要简单认为是正确的,那一定已经错了。 英俊少年 清晨,雨过天晴,浓雾依然弥漫山谷。 收拾出发已经10点钟,一个哈萨克少年骑马追上向日葵色板官方,超越后却并不远去,就呆在前面三五米的地方慢慢催马前行,英俊少年显得对向日葵色板官方很感兴趣,坐在马背上回转身,眼神直勾勾紧盯着向日葵色板官方。 “甲可思摸。”连摸几遍没有反应,英俊少年马背上回身的姿势仿佛凝固一般,依然是直勾勾的盯着,始终保持在向日葵色板官方前面一点走着,颇有点带路的意味。 其实,沿途的哈萨克牧民虽然冷漠,却总会不由自主流露出对旅游者的浓厚兴趣,虽然长居深山不善交流,脸上总是一副冷漠表情,但身体语言却暴露了他们的内心想法。 通常牧民远远看到向日葵色板官方多半会早早的挺直胸膛,在马背上坐的笔直,经过身边时突然催马加速,快速跑出一段再潇洒的勒马回头张望。 这个英俊少年也不例外,尽管骑在马上就像一尊雕塑,但看得出雕塑对向日葵色板官方的兴趣是相当的浓厚。 死的比活的管用 马道从山坡上切到山谷溪流边,一座木桥横跨溪流,另一条路沿溪流左岸通向山谷深处,“包扎墩,这里?”我指着木桥试探地问少年,少年很快做出回应,使劲的摇着头,再问了一遍,少年还是摇头,还抬手指了指左边的山道。 其实攻略上写的很清楚,过桥是正道,不过,攻略是死的,人是活的。 相信人还是相信攻略,这是个问! 后来回想起来,提出这个问,就已经是脑子被驴踢了的表现。 心里拿不准,指着木桥又问了一遍,少年坚决的摇摇头,催马走上左边山道停下来等我。 少年很执着的等在前面,犹豫了半天跟上少年,爬上草坡,少年脸上绽开了笑容,竟然哼起曲子来,拍着马鞍冲我招招手,示意让我上马。 我回头示意简单,简单很不屑的摇摇头,这下少年兴趣马上发生转移,掉转马头紧随简单身旁行走,眼睛直勾勾的盯着简单,曲子哼的更起劲了。 翻过山坳,浓雾中传出犬吠声声,木屋前几只牧羊犬作势扑咬,一个汉子应声出门喝止。看到向日葵色板官方,汉子显得很激动,手舞足蹈抛出一长串话来,他越激动我心里越拧巴,因为他的汉话太拧巴。 果然,我们走错了路,虽然人是活的攻略是死的,不过这次死的显然比活的更管用。 好不容易逮着个能开口说话的牧人,连忙拉住他询问科克苏河上的溜索。 “不在,没有了。”汉子连连摇头。 “桥?木桥?在不在?” “不在,冲走了!” 汉子的回答让我心里一沉,老米和简单心态很好,“到了河边再说吧。” 汉子叫来一个老汉,指着树林方向,让他带向日葵色板官方抄近路插过去。 光线的诱惑 随着老汉跨过独木桥,翻过山坡,走出树林,眼前豁然开朗,宽阔的斜坡草地一直延向浓雾弥漫的山谷。 告别老汉,顺草坡而下,遮蔽山谷的浓雾仿佛被一只无形的手牵引,大幕般缓缓向上提起,山谷里的草甸、木屋、牛羊从大幕下一点一点显露出来,阳光星星点点洒落草场,沉睡的大地开始苏醒,盎然生机在起伏的山峦间涌动。 由衷的喜悦在心里流淌,我踏露而行,缓步走进慢慢显露的梦幻世界。晨雾的帷幕慢慢拉开,云雾渐渐散去时的光线那么迷人,我和老米像中了魔似地,频频举起相机按下快门。 帷幕吊胃口般走几步就拉开一点点,云雾一点一点的拉开,阳光一点一点的洒落,大脑已经停止了运转被视觉支配着,恍恍惚惚走上几步,就举起相机按下快门,三步一停,五步一顿,一点一点被诱惑着迈动脚步。 这段路程的记忆很模糊,或者当时脑子里本就已经是模糊不清,简直就是一段魔幻的演绎,恍惚中已经不是在行走,似乎化作了一股快乐的溪流,从山坡上缓缓淌进雨后初晴的山谷牧场,就像一个蹩脚的后期剪辑作品,上一个镜头里我还在山坡上面对着茫茫白雾,下一个镜头切过来已经站在仙境般的谷地四处张望。 雾气渐散,阳光一缕一缕穿透云雾,仿佛带着重量般冲坠到山谷草地,草尖上密集的露珠在阳光映射下精灵般熠熠生辉,仙境一样的通透色彩在山谷里流动,清鲜的青草芳香,湿润的泥土气息,伴随着袅袅缥缈的薄雾在草地上飘荡,沁人心脾。 都是迷路惹的祸 几道栅栏挡在面前,牧场上忙碌的妇人走过来指点向日葵色板官方从栅栏低矮处翻进去,刚落地,她的老公从木屋后转出来,热情邀请向日葵色板官方进屋喝茶。扔下背包径直往屋里去,我不敢客气,怕一客气就把机会给客气掉了。 汉子叫卡德拉洪,他一眼瞥见我手里的相机,伸手就把老婆拉到面前,问我:“照相?” 俗话说吃人的嘴软,这样的问话通常也就只是走个过场而已。 卡德拉洪拉着老婆转来转去摆POSE,拍了逆光拍顺光、拍了牧场背景换木屋背景再换牛羊背景,拍完老婆接着拍夫妻照,也是顺光逆光牧场木屋牛羊换着花样来…… 好不容易折腾完,我还惦记着屋子里的热茶,正准备收工往屋里钻,卡德拉洪把手指塞进嘴里打出个响亮的呼哨,一个少年应声从山坡上拍马冲出,黑马少年冲到近前,原来是卡德拉洪二世驾临,于是又是一番排列组合,拍了儿子拍母子,拍了马上拍马下,拍了逆光拍顺光…… 相机装进包之前我环顾四周,忍不住多问了一句:“您,家里还有其他人吗?”卡德拉洪摇摇头把向日葵色板官方迎进木屋。 按规矩进屋之前先洗手,炕桌上很快摆出奶茶、面饼、奶油,卡德拉洪手法熟练的切着熟羊肉。喝着醇香奶茶,嚼着香喷喷的羊肉,清炖羊肉是那样的鲜美,我忍不住说了一句:“都是迷路惹的祸啊!”老米砸吧着嘴连连点头。 山寨版挤奶工,性别优势很明显 天山牧场 不知不觉就在卡德拉洪家里磨蹭了一个多小时,在简单的催促下才不舍作别。 火辣的阳光从湛蓝天空洒落下来,潮湿的草地蒸腾起一团团雾气,紧贴着地面漂浮,像一丛丛白色的火焰在燃烧。 皑皑雪山环绕山谷,峰顶冰雪在阳光下烁烁生辉,绿草如茵铺满大地,牛羊散落在草甸上悠闲的踱步,溪流切开绿草地蜿蜒流淌,潺潺的流水声悦耳动听,天地间透出恬静安详的气息。眼前这一切与脑子里臆想了无数遍的天山牧场竟然分毫不差,一种遥远又熟悉的感觉油然而生,心神安宁,信步缓行,我听得见心脏在舒缓的跳动。 穿行在美丽的山谷,忍不住回头对老米感叹,这一段路大概就是天山牧场的精髓了吧。 灿烂的阳光把坏天气带来的阴郁一扫而光,有了阳光的眷顾,整个山谷焕发出熠熠神彩。阳光也有副作用,自从它出现以后,向日葵色板官方的队伍行走起来就慢的像蜗牛,我和老米走走停停,尽情释放摁下快门的快感。 现在回想起来,似乎从第二天开始,懒散悠游的种子就开始在队伍里萌芽,我和老米首先就已经在阳光、美景面前举手缴械,很默契的把拍照排在了第一位,那些出发前的徒步计划被有意无意的忽略掉。 这些变化很微妙,一门心思追求傻走的简单竟然没有及时感知,也就没有提出抗议,这也无意中助长了向日葵色板官方的歪风邪气。 可怕的是,这些行走中的变化,仅仅只是刚开始。 负重 溪流在山谷流淌,马道穿行溪畔,行走在阳光照耀的青草地,与昨天的雨雾待遇相比,今天简直就是进了天堂。 转过山弯,海拔3660米的包扎墩达坂跃入眼帘,雪山环绕,马道沿着山谷缓慢爬升,走过溪流上的木桥,坡度变陡,队伍开始渐渐拉长。 出发前队伍减少了一个人,负重的压力陡然增加,因为乌孙出山后无法采购的原因,穿越夏特的很多物品不得不全程背负。在乌鲁木齐,背包过秤的结果让我们有点发怵,老米和简单分别是66斤、50斤,背包重量都超过了体重的一半,出发前反复测算的控制重量被大大突破。 虽然每件超重物品都只超了一点点,但汇总起来就很可怕。食品主要由简单采购,按照清单检查时,每种食品的超重理由她都说的很充分——没有小包装、重量估计失误、某样东西特好吃必不可少、某样东西是为某样东西配套必不可少、某样东西是我没考虑到她想到的必不可少……这些理由我统统都能接受,她的一口袋护肤品超计划我也能忍受,她的不锈钢大饭盒纯属多余我咬着牙也忍了,但当她掏出一双沉甸甸的精钢筷子时,直接让我崩溃了,伸手夺过来要扔掉,简单着急的阻拦,“别!这是我家最好的筷子,用很多年了。”后来,每当她掏出这沉甸甸的传家宝吃饭,都会把我给重新刺激一次。 清理半天的结果让我很郁闷,唯一减掉的就是我那把折叠大刀。 组队时对老米的许诺是负重不超过50斤,主要是担心报价太高把他给吓退,毕竟这是他的第一次负重徒步。把人拉进队伍后给他说了实话——不超过55斤,我心里明白这个重量还有不少水分,毕竟向日葵色板官方的公司刚刚组建,业绩压力太大容易把新员工给吓跑。 退出一名队员后报价顺势涨到60斤,通货膨胀的压力在那儿明摆着,所以这次涨价老米很理解。老米这人很重感情,虽然这个重量已经让他心里打鼓晚上睡不安稳,但作为多年老友,他显然不好意思到这个节骨眼上还拆我的吊桥。第一次负重就享受到这样良好的待遇,老米还没出门心里就已经是忐忑不安,在乌鲁木齐称重后更是显得心事重重。 不过两天走下来大伙儿很快从心理和生理上都适应了背负,负重已经不是什么负担。老米只是抱怨背负重量严重影响立片的拍摄操作,这一点我也深受其苦,重压下的右肩右臂频繁抬起,不仅稳定性差,背包带紧勒下还有点呼吸困难,没多久我和老米的右肩就红肿起来,抬手拍立片简直就是煎熬。 心有不甘的扎营 马道在乱石陡坡上延伸,第一次负重爬山老米需要适应节奏,渐渐的落在了后面。 走到下午六点,天气陡变,乌云翻滚着从包扎墩达坂上压下来,天空飘起了雪花,很快雪花变成黄豆大的雹粒噼里啪啦洒下来。 今天的计划是翻过包扎墩达坂扎营,这一路上挥霍了太多时间,按向日葵色板官方的进度估计,爬上达坂正好是天黑时分,下山还需要一两个小时。望着乌云翻滚的达坂,在恶劣的天气里走夜路还是让我有些惴惴不安,不过这么早就停下扎营心里更是不甘,呆望着垭口犹豫不定,回头与追上来的老米商量。 老米毫不犹豫的说安全第一,正好山湾里有个空置的木屋,我顺水推舟安排在木屋里卸包扎营。 这么早就安营扎寨,仍然是老米很高兴,简单很不甘心。在干燥的木屋里烧水做饭,老米满怀憧憬的询问,“向日葵色板官方是不是每天都能住在这样的木屋里?” 午夜,天气好转,如水月光铺满山谷,亮如白昼。 康复治疗 胃病和失眠一直折磨老米多年,体质每况愈下。08年我计划穿越巴丹吉林沙漠,寻伴无果的情况下就开始撺掇老米把他的处男行贡献出来,我的想法一开始就把他给吓着了,头摇的像拨浪鼓。也难怪,从没徒步过,一走就是十多天,而且还是进沙漠,想起来都是灾难,老米死活不从。 无奈之下我借着酒劲就开始给他下猛药,“老米呀,一个男人,这辈子总得做出一两件自己觉得不可能的事情来,当你老了以后可以翻出来在儿子面前炫耀。”这贴药药性太猛,把老米刺激的半宿没睡着,大清早就毅然决然的告诉我,“豁出去了!” 老米壮着胆子到巴丹吉林沙漠里走了11天,顶着狂风暴雨烈日的行走,每天喝着盐碱水,饱一顿饥一顿吃着含沙量很高的饭菜,睡在风吹雨打的帐篷里,老米惊喜地发现困扰多年的胃病和失眠症竟然不治而愈,看到老米从沙漠里回来变得睡觉倍儿香、吃饭倍儿棒、身体倍儿壮、精神头倍儿足,米嫂很是满意。 身体变好后老米消停了两年没再动弹,于是那些老毛病又开始跳出来作怪,身体状况越来越让米嫂感到担心。 今年的天山穿越寻伴依然很困难,无奈中再次打上了老米的主意,在我的反复撺掇和米嫂的坚决支持下,老米终于下定决心再来一次康复治疗。 疗效很神奇,简直就是立竿见影,从走路的第一天开始,老米就变得能吃能睡,晚上躺进睡袋不到半分钟就开始打鼾,失眠症的影子都找不到一点,反倒弄得我在他的鼾声干扰下开始失眠。 旅程还没过半,再次尝到甜头的老米就已经下定决心——以后每年巩固一次疗效。 监护人 温暖的阳光洒进山谷,天气大晴,老米在笔记本上如此记录——第三天,10点30分出发,向日葵色板官方的队伍越来越拖沓。 的确如此,我们的队伍以每天延迟半个小时拔营的速度迅速堕落下去,直到第六天出发时,一看时间竟然已经是中午12点,这才让向日葵色板官方开始悚然警觉。 爬上山坳,宽广的乱石山谷尽头就是包扎墩达坂,达坂上积雪不多,琼库什台村牧民比划的雪深及大腿显然是在吓唬人。 向日葵色板官方没走马道,朝着垭口方向,从谷底径直往上切,草坡爬上去就进入乱石堆,石缝里不时散落着北山羊那硕大的羊角,简单在乱石上轻盈的快速挪动,老米对这样的走法有些不适应,每一步都踩得很稳,渐渐落到后面。 第一天就约定老米收队,负责对简单的保护,如果是平路和下坡路,他的保护做得非常到位,老米做事很是认真严谨,严格贯彻人盯人的对位防守策略,总是寸步不离的把简单跟得很紧,这样严密的保护显得有点矫枉过正,看起来老米似乎不是在担心路痴驴走丢,而是在防止路痴驴一不留神就插翅飞走。 一旦开始爬山老米的保护就变得失控,简单每逢爬山必定会兴奋起来,而且是山势越陡越高兴,海拔越高越兴奋,步子迈得飞快,总是把监护人甩到后面很远,如果是冲垭口,那简直就是出笼的小鸟,不管不顾一个劲往前冲。 对这种一门心思傻走的路痴型特质人群,脱离监护是很危险的举动,于是给她约法三章,爬山时,收队的监护人可以甩,开路的监护人不能超,简单答应的很憋屈,却很守纪律,不越雷池一步。 心理学原理告诉向日葵色板官方,人的思维定势一旦形成,往往就像一个无形的囚笼把自己罩起来,简单就是个典型例子,后来,偶尔因拍照时需要道具让她走到我前面去,她犹豫着看过来的眼神,分明是在怀疑我的提议会不会是个陷阱。 包扎墩达坂 昨天路上来往的牧民还是络绎不绝,到今天却一下子全没了影,空旷的山谷里只有向日葵色板官方仨在孤单的行走。 直到走上达坂下的之字形陡坡,马道上才开始出现积雪和薄冰,马道很好走,严格按照走五十步驻步喘五口气的节奏走路,上升的很快。 快到垭口,横切过一段平路,前方就是垭口,垭口岩石上赫然站着一只黑狗,看到我冒头就作势欲扑狂吠起来,垭口上竟然有劫道的狗?难道新疆的狗都这么霸道?如此牛狗!我对它不由得肃然起敬。 朝着霸占垭口的牛狗就冲了过去,还没等我举起登山杖,黑狗就忙不迭转身奔逃,待我爬上垭口,它已经变成了一个小黑点。 垭口寒风刺骨,放眼望去,碧空如洗,广阔山谷一览无遗,湛蓝的天幕下峰峦叠嶂,雪山屹立连绵不绝,阳光照射在达坂冰川上,反射出耀眼的光芒,向日葵色板官方顶着寒风呆了大半个小时开始下山。在山下又遇到落荒而逃的黑狗,当它消除敌意后,抵近拍照留念 马队的邀请 沿着溪流连下两个陡坡,走进了宽阔草场,草场尽头散落着两座木屋,远远的看到山腰木屋处走出一只马队,很快来到近前。 三男一女一婴五马一声不哼横挡在面前,审视的眼神上下打量,那只收买路钱的黑狗和他们站在一起,有了后台肯定就有底气,黑狗呲牙咧嘴的盯着我。 一声不哼是因为不会说汉话,冷漠是深山里牧民的天性使然,审视是对陌生人好奇。山里的牧民都显得很矜持,不会一见到你就热情起来,他们会仔细观察你的言行,直到决定接受你,不过,即便接受了你,他们看起来仍然很矜持,只能从眼角和嘴角的细微变化看出一点对你的好感来。 老米从后面赶上来把烟递过去,男人们脸上开始有了笑容,抱着孩子的女人开始叽里咕噜的问话。 语言不通,试探着模仿他们拿腔拿调的口气说了几声:“向日葵色板官方,去,科克苏河。”男人们对视一眼,有人点了点头,指了指山下科克苏河的方向,领头的大鼻子汉子拍了拍空马鞍,示意向日葵色板官方可以上马,回头向简单转达了马队的邀请,“不骑,走路更舒服!”简单使劲的摇着头。 马队沿着河谷溪流一溜小跑,在泥泞崎岖的马道上很快走远。午后煮茶休息,这是每天必不可少的内容,通常情况会耽搁一个小时多一点,这一路上的南瓜皮的确有点多三男一女一婴五马挡住去路,别说我不识数,有一匹被挡住了向日葵色板官方试图追着马队走,但两条小溪缠住向日葵色板官方的脚步,马队很快没影了([]
首先我想说,我去越南的时间是2011年的春节,不是夏天去的,所以很多东西会不一样。而且跟很多朋友的文章不同,我们的越南之行是百分之百的穷游,所以住的很低准,每人每天按6美元的准住的。全程几乎没去什么饭馆吃饭,基本吃的都是街边摊。而且是我一个女孩子带着老妈出游,我妈从第一天开始就病了,到最后发展成了严重的肺炎,所以,带着一个更年期生病妇女,承受的无休无止的唠叨你懂的....所以与很多人相比,我的观点并不具有可信性。您就看着当笑话一笑而过就可以了。许多东西,每个人的感觉是不一样的。虽然我这篇文章写得很苦逼,但是我心里还是爱着越南的。机票:我刚开始没有确定自己的行程,所以先在去哪网上订了广州到河内的机票,全部加起来是860,回来的机票是在越南通过旅行社订的,太坑爹了竟然花了1600!!!现在在去哪上面找往返机票,加上税也就1200,所以还是早点确定行程比较好,因为是往返,个人觉得河内往返不值得,不如订胡志明往返,因为河内根本不值得去!汇率:去的时候人民币换越南盾大概是13150.美元换越南盾是121000,很多地方有得换,但是千万别在机场换,低死了...而且一定要万万注意汇率损失的问,别换太多越盾了,向日葵色板官方就是换了太多,换回来的时候汇率很不值得,结果损失很多.电话据说如果是漫游的话,发短信是2块钱一条,打电话9块钱一分钟,还是买个当地卡值得,我买的是vietell的卡,65.000盾,差不多人民币22块钱,还是很便宜的,而且这个卡买了还可以打十几分钟的国际长途,本地打电话发短信也都可以.而且过去无聊,满街都是中国人,要了他们电话也可以互相联系认识朋友。交通:越南的摩托车多得吓死人了,但是其实他们技术都很好不会撞到你的,所以马路随便过也没什么问(个人经验)。从北到南大家一般都是坐open bus,越南有很多家做旅游的公司,很多攻略推崇 sinh tourist, TM brother's cafe,hanh cafe,等等...我觉得个个都不是什么好东西,全都很坑爹,所以随便坐一个就可以了,但是要找价钱最低的.sinh tourist跟其他相比的优点就是发车了就不会再停下四处兜客,而且还会发一瓶水一张湿纸巾给你,不过在我看来全是小恩小惠...sinh的网址如下,可以先在线订好全部行程https//www.thesinhtourist.vn/越南打的还可以,但是千万坐正规的那种,而且司机不一定懂英语哦语言:因为去的都是旅游城市,连街边摆地摊的人也懂说英语,但是个人认为还是要学点越南语的,问价钱要会,数字要会,机场什么的最好都学一点,虽然听起来超搞笑超像粗口的。不过,学会了也不是很好,因为你可以听懂老板跟当地人要的价钱比跟你要的低几倍。心里会超级不爽建议1.多人同行,一个人去虽然很小资,但是在住房子上面很不抵,2人间12美元,1人间也要10美元了,建议四人同行,因为有的旅馆的床大得要死,4个人睡双人间也没问,不过这就要看老板是算人头价还是房间价了.2.据说胡志明市很多飞车党抢包,路上遇到的已经听说了至少有2个人被抢过手机或者单反,在越南拿单反的几乎百分百是中国人,所以千万要注意安全3.千万别新年去,年前年后几天都别去,越南人也过春节,满街店铺全体关门了,旅游公司的车也少,而且所有东西的价格都上浮总之各种 杯具。4.越南人虽然还算是比较热情友好的,但是做事非常非常没有效率没有信用,所以别相信他们,尤其是会赚到你的钱的人,全都爱骗人!5.越南司机开车你最好别坐第一排看着他开,否则你肯定吐血,美奈到西贡就215公里,他开了6小时,中途还停下来吃饭,路上一个车也没有他也开40km/h,最快也不超过60.而且超爱接电话鸣喇叭,电话铃又恶心喇叭声超大,其实那些夜车,根本用不了8小时时间的,给中国人开4小时不到就可以到,可是他们就是没效率,做事不负责任慢吞吞。day1:广州-河内到了河内机场后,出来就有机场巴士可以坐,一人,当你看到车上的鬼佬鬼妹纷纷下车的时候你也下车好了,下车就是在河内老城区,还剑湖周围。LP上面会有推荐的旅馆,向日葵色板官方当时没有订,路上一路走一路问,最后住在discovery hotel,17美元双人间,老板英语在越南人里面算是非常非常非常好的,沟通不成问的,但是人品不怎么好,骗向日葵色板官方说快过年了金店全都关门了,结果向日葵色板官方在他那里换美元,才给向日葵色板官方120000的汇率,让向日葵色板官方汇率损失了很多。谈钱伤感情啊!其他方面他就做得还是挺好的。在河内晃了一圈,唯一印象深刻的就是一家叫xoi yen的糯米饭,真的超好吃的说!地址在ma may 和hang bac两条路的交界地方,很好认的! 其他的,我觉得河内都很无聊,而且物价巨高,吃个快餐也要十几,跟深圳都差不多贵了,吃个粽子竟然要10块!传说中的还剑湖小得要死,也没什么好看,大教堂还是不错,但是还是不值得看,就一个巨大的牌坊,无聊得很。 而且越南做生意的人全国都很不地道,狂宰外国人,东西那么贵,才不要买!discovery hotel地址:Luong Ngoc Quyen St., Hoan Kiem Dist. 河内满街都是假的sinh cafe,discovery就在真的新咖啡所在的那条街上的一间叫cafe de paris周围不远的地方,那片区域初到的时候觉得像迷宫一样,一走就迷路。其实走一天以上你就明白就屁大点地方,街也就那几条,卖的东西也都差不多。刚开始你会觉得米粉还算是可以吃的东西,虽然做法很怪异,从一大团粉里面抓一把泡在汤里就给你了,另外给你一大筐草放在你面前,能认得出的有薄荷叶和生菜还有豆芽,其他都认不出,而且味道很冲,有一种我真的无论如何也习惯不了,估计你们也不怎么可能习惯。如下图day2:这个就是xoi yen店里的糯米饭,大概是人民币13块钱一碗,好吃得要死。 升龙剧院的水上木偶戏。不看后悔,看了也就那回事。这个我真不知道是什么,街边卖的东西还剑湖周围看到的,法棍都用筐装。这个跟肠粉差不多,还挺好吃的,就是特别贵,30.000一份这就是那个卖天价肠粉宰向日葵色板官方的阿姨.继续逛河内一整天,去了教堂等地方。其实越南人没有想象中的穷,相反,还很有钱,街上虽然摩托车很多,但是奔驰宝马也不在少数,而且河内那种坑爹的物价,如果收入真的那么低的话绝对活不起。晚上坑爹的sinh tourist没有sleeping bus只有 sitting bus,所以向日葵色板官方很悲惨地坐了一晚硬座去顺化,各种辛苦,而且司机超爱午夜时分停车吵醒所有人吃夜宵,超爱鸣喇叭,超爱随便乱停车,根本没得睡。day3:到达顺化,其实顺化很小,只游览一个上午就够了,而且也确实没什么好看的,就一个很无聊的顺化皇城,戏称北京故宫的厕所。但是顺化有supermarket啊!!!进去一看,两根法棍都超过半米长,加在一起才5500vnd!!!也就是说不到人民币一块钱一根!!!因为是新年,简直就是菊花残满腚伤....越南人新年好像是认为黄色的花比较吉利,所以顺化满街都是菊花,皇城周围更是 堪称菊花的海洋!!!逛完顺化皇城,我们想在顺化多逛逛,所以就成就了我们越南之行的唯一一次超级深度游.半迷路的状态下走了4小时才回到新咖啡的据点. 顺化感觉很像中国的三线城市,很有生活的味道,但是因为过年,全城的店都关了,有点小扫兴. 同时看到了更多生活中的越南人,他们真的很善良.虽然他们大多不会说英语,而我的越南语仅限于"拜托了"和"谢谢你"的程度,他们都会很仔细地给向日葵色板官方指路(虽然只能看懂个方向,一句也听不懂)中午 回到新咖啡等车下午去会安,在周围发现一家无比便宜的果汁店,虽然已经是对向日葵色板官方外国人涨价了,变成了10.000一杯,也就是人民币3块3.除了酸奶和咖啡以及一些水果名字之外什么也看不懂.....([]
《最后的藏地:甘青川大环线》 序2007年,随着一篇帖子误打误撞地进入了川西的藏区后,在接下去的几年,藏地,就像魔咒般地吸引着我。我和我的兄弟,因此,有了藏地五年计划。今年,是向日葵色板官方行游藏地的第五年,也是藏地五年计划的最后一年。五年来,向日葵色板官方很幸运,也很执著:07年,向日葵色板官方第一次来到了藏区。向日葵色板官方惊艳于新都桥的光影和八美的柔情;而穿越四姑娘让向日葵色板官方第一次有了驴的感觉。08年,贡嘎的壮美、剪子弯的高原草甸、外星球般的海子山、仙乃日的威严、雨崩的神秘和一妻多夫以及雨崩小学的张老师和十个小时的的梅里穿越,更给我烙下了深刻的印象。09年,我们终于走了川藏南线。跨过金沙江,真正来到了西藏。来古冰川、米堆冰川、嘎瓦龙雪山和天池。。。无不让我深深怀念!10年,21天,向日葵色板官方完成了阿里大环线的穿越。珠峰的夕照和普兰的宁静;玛旁雍措的深邃和拉昴措的诡异;古格的神秘和东嘎皮央遗址的凄凉;扎达的壮观和天堂般的文布;色林措的欢乐和仓姑寺的详和;以及一路相伴的藏野驴、藏羚羊、差点因高发下撤而割袍断义的兄弟和我的队友组成了我10年最美好的回忆。2011年,藏地五年计划的最后一年,向日葵色板官方走进了甘青川。。。 目录一、序二、出发前的纠结三、穿越夹金山四、西索民居和土司官寨五、关于马尔康的阿来和其它六、太阳河峡谷劳作的藏族小孩七、邂逅马尔康看花节八、色达:经幡扬起的是一颗宁静的心九、年龙寺:探访闭关修行的年龙上师仁波切十、班玛:天葬台、江日堂寺和非诚勿拢的刘婷婷十一、白玉寺:拜访著名的传奇人物----“年宝玉则的观鸟喇嘛”扎西桑俄十二、年宝玉则:僧人的笑容十三、放花无语对玛卿----穿越阿尼玛卿纪实十四、玛多:黄河之水天上来十五、走向共和十六、青海湖:不要问我从哪里来十七、大美祈连:卓尔山十八、阿柔大寺:最帅气喇嘛和可爱的藏民十九、门源:一片金色向着党 二十、西宁--合作:多民族聚集的和谐走廊二十一、扎尕那:遗世独立的非著名山峰 二十二、郎木寺:天葬台的诱惑二十三、红原:千回百转的黄河第一湾二十四、汶川:不能忘却的纪念二十五、结束语 二、出发前的纠结是甘川青还是川青甘?这是个问。时间进入到五月,10年同行阿里的队友开始活跃起来。西湖和本色不断邀约加入他们甘川青的队伍;我也开始谋划我的11年行程,但皆因种种不确定性没有允诺队友。首先是兄弟的不确定性,达华云里雾里,不置可否;另外一个刚加盟的小兄弟(耗子)想玩回大环线自驾;而我自己确定不了具体出发的时间。再者,今年,我必须得去色达。而西湖本色的队伍走的是甘-川-青,他们放弃了色达。而放弃色达是我不能容忍的。就这样,和原来阿里的队友失之交臂,以致于11年的行程只有风景,没有了风情;只有色彩,没有了精彩;只有英雄,没有了故事。五千公里的旷野,只有三个年近不惑的孤独的男人在自我装酷却无人欣赏。。。苏说,他就像旷野里的那只藏原羊一样孤独,只好不断地把白屁股炫耀以期待少许的目光。七月初,达华正式告知将携妻儿自驾;汶川突至暴雨和泥石流交通中断;而我家阁楼露台上的紫藤却突然枯萎。。。这无疑不是出发前的好兆头。耗子在暴雨、泥石流和枯萎的紫藤以及向日葵色板官方的七嘴八舌下终于决定放弃自驾。至此,向日葵色板官方终于决定七月初从成都出发。后来得知,本色当上了队长,拉起了原来阿里的队伍,过起了万花丛中一点绿的滋润日子;茗禅冒充强驴骗取信任穿越了贡嘎,留给向日葵色板官方的是嫉妒和羡慕;达华最终携妻带子自驾弃向日葵色板官方而去。。。七月,阿里英雄终于各自在路上。 三、穿越夹金山夹金山,并不是向日葵色板官方计划中的行程。汶川线的暴雨和泥石流让向日葵色板官方被迫放弃了原来的线路,向日葵色板官方只能绕道夹金山。夹金山,是一座英雄的山。夹金山位于四川省阿坝藏族羌族自治州小金县南部,与著名的四姑娘山风景区毗邻,距成都250公里。夹金山也是当年中国工农红军一方面军万里长征与红四方面胜利会师的地方。夹金山从此载入中国革命历史的光荣史。2011年的7月,是红色的7月。向日葵色板官方的行程就从这红色的夹金山开始了。夹金山垭口 红军达维会师1935年6月,中国工农红军第一方面军翻越夹金山与红四方面军在四川省阿坝州小金县达维乡正式会师。如今,达维会师已成为一处重温红色记忆的旅游景点。70年后,这里也成了一个旅游胜地。这里,也是世界第一只大熊猫的科学发现地,尽管向日葵色板官方没有发现大熊猫。 傍晚的夹金山沐浴在夕阳中。夏日的夹金山却犹如沐浴在秋色之中,傍晚时分的一缕夕阳打在藏居上。当年的红军,也许无暇这样的风景。 四、西索民居和土司官寨傍晚,向日葵色板官方终于抵达马尔康郊外的西索民居和卓克基土司官寨。西索民居卓克基土司官寨西索民居独具嘉绒藏族特色,保持了嘉绒先民“垒石为室”的传统建筑风格,寨子鳞次栉比、错落有致,远目望去犹如一座壁垒森严的古堡。整个民居从远处鸟瞰,便会惊奇地发现西索藏寨酷似藏族八宝图案中的“花依”图案(状如“中华结”,代表释伽牟尼的心),寨子中直来竖往、弯来拐去的青石板小道,把图案的线条展现的非常清晰。 藏寨全是三层石楼,底层饲养牲畜,第二层是厨房和住宿,三层是经堂和客房。民居建筑形如碉状,也称碉楼。房屋四周的墙体均用片石砌成,用黄泥粘合。墙体厚达1米,采用内直外收的砌法, 工匠们仅凭经验,砌出的石墙如刀切豆腐般整齐,棱角锐利,上窄下宽,整个墙体处于抗压状态,成为建筑的承重主体。加之内部木结构横梁的互相支撑拉合,整个建筑下大上小、重心向内、稳定性强。到最高处,碉楼四角顺势形成角锋,造成一种气势,最高处的石墙边缘加厚,避免墙表的平面化,增强立体感。房顶一分为二,前半部分为平顶,三面砌成矮墙;后半部分形成斜山式,覆盖石板或瓦。每层楼的窗户都外小内大,窗框很讲究,用上了雕刻、绘画、上彩等技巧,民族特色很浓。这种碉楼不仅冬暖夏凉,而且建筑艺术独特,审美价值高,就像一件件珍贵的艺术品。卓克基土司官寨位于距马尔康县城7公里的卓克基镇西索村。官寨依山而建,坐北朝南,被国际友人赞誉为“东方建筑史上的一颗明珠”。官寨始建于1918年清朝乾隆年间,为四层碉房,1936年毁于大火,1938年----1940年,土司索观赢组织人力进行重建。1935年7月,毛泽东同志及中央机关长征途中曾在官寨住宿一周。1988年,卓克基官寨被国务院列为第三批国家重点文物保护单位。卓克基土司官寨有着重要的历史文化以及丰富的旅游资源。 五、关于马尔康的阿来和其它值得说一句的是,马尔康是著名藏族作家阿来的家乡。阿来:1959年出生于马尔康,毕业于马尔康师范学校。2009年3月,阿来当选为四川省作协主席,现兼任中国作协副主席。从1994年《尘埃落定》写出至1998年出版其间,阿来由阿坝州一家杂志转辗到四川成都《科幻世界》由编辑到总编辑社长,《科幻世界》在阿来手里由一本杂志变为五六种,成为世界上发行量最大的科幻类杂志。数百万读者期待读到阿来新作。来之前,我不知道,马尔康就是阿来的家乡。在西索民居时,我的司机师傅轻轻说了一句:这就是阿来居住过的地方,小说《尘埃落定》的故事就发生在这里。轻描淡写的一句话,却触动了我的内心。阿来是我喜欢的一位作家。《尘埃落定》就是他的代表作,曾获得第五届茅盾文学奖。我喜欢的倒不是他的《尘埃落定》,而是他对西藏土地深沉的爱和对西藏发展自己独立的见解。虽然,我没看过他写的《格萨尔王》,但我欣赏他写《格萨尔王》的勇气和毅力。我有一本阿来的文集《看见》。在文中,阿来说:看哪,落定的尘埃又微微泛起,山间的大路上,细小的石英沙尘在阳光下闪烁出耀眼的光芒,在茫茫宇宙中漂浮不定。唉,一路都是落不定的尘埃!写完《格萨尔王》后,阿来说:王啊,今天我要把你的故事还给你,我要走出你的故事了。这是一个小说家的宿命,从一个故事向另一个故事漂泊。当一些所谓的有识之士忧虑于青藏铁路的建设时,阿来所说的话让我赞叹,他不同流和盲从于“有识之士”。阿来说:如果说,这条铁路的建成,对建设者是一个胜利,而对这条铁路经过的高原,对这条铁路所冲击的古老文化,对当地政府和老百姓,这到底是一个天降的福音,还是一个巨大的考验,全赖于面临这样一个新的机遇的人们有没有准备好去迎接挑战。我讨厌于一些看法。诸如,西藏的高原上架设高压线破坏景观;西藏的腹地通公路影响生态;西藏铁路和机场的建设是对环境和西藏文化的破坏。。。诸如此类,等等等等。当向日葵色板官方手拿ipads,喝着咖啡,畅游在信息高速公路上时,向日葵色板官方有什么权力让西藏人民永远手持转筒匍匐着转经呢?五年了,当我周游在藏地时,更多看到的只是游客们猎奇的眼光和浅薄的认识,他们讨厌藏民用手机、讨厌藏民开着摩托车放牧;他们希望的西藏永远是原始、原始、再原始;他们希望把西藏割裂于现代文明之外。。。古老和现代的冲突是一个永恒的话。我崇拜甚至是膜拜西藏悠久的文化和宗教,但我也不排斥他们对现代文明和现代化的选择,我相信,这不是西藏人民的“被选择”。只是,在这种选择之前,正如阿来所说的,“全赖于面临这样一个新的机遇的人们有没有准备好去迎接挑战”。我想,在现代化、现代文明和西藏古老的历史、文化、宗教冲突中,向日葵色板官方不要做非此即彼的选择,向日葵色板官方所要关注的是,如何去寻找冲突间的结合点,以期待让西藏古老文化和宗教在现代文明前更加熠熠生辉,以期待西藏的环境在现代化面前妥善地予以保护。这才是真正考验政府和百姓的智慧。感谢阿来,祝福西藏。 六、太阳河峡谷劳作的藏族小孩这一天,除了色达五明佛学院让我震撼之外,就是这在田间劳作的藏族小孩的眼睛和笑容。 从清晨的马尔康醒来,昨晚的灯火辉煌已遗留在睡梦中。马尔康县城位于山谷之间,海拔并不高,只有2700米。县城规划整齐,湍急的索磨河穿城而过。清晨的马尔康夜幕下的马尔康霓虹闪烁,光影迷离。 在藏语里,马尔康的意思就是灯火旺盛的地方,据说此命名来至一位得道高僧。在藏地,这样的高僧往往又是伟大的预言家。今天,预言再次成真。向日葵色板官方沿着大渡河的上游---太阳河峡谷前行。山涧,雾气升腾。大渡河咆哮东去,雨后的太阳河峡谷清新诡异。晨雾中的藏居很是抢眼,早起的藏民已走向田间地头。 藏居、碉楼、高压塔。虽然,高压电线塔很不应景,但我希望大家更多的是看到它给西藏人民带来的光明而给以包容。有一种风景,她遗世独立。有一种力量,她坚如磐石。 有一种行走,叫做虔诚。也有一种行走,叫做造作。中午,向日葵色板官方来到了壤塘县大伊里村。这一路,最吸引我们的就是藏式民居。 这一带的藏式民居三楼均以柳条编制而成,上宽下窄,俨然穿上铠甲的将士。 就在这样的环境里日出而作,繁衍生息。大伊里乡其实是个重点扶持的富裕乡。对口帮扶让他们过上了现代生活。在这红色的七月,需常怀感恩之心。大伊里乡瓜果青翠,花香四溢。([]
想了很久,也努力了很久,纠结着要不要在8264网站上来发我的处女帖?不确定我这文字多过图的行游日志会有多少人喜欢?也不确定我这些没有经过后期处理过的驴行毛片会令多少人真的心动?说实话,在户外网站上发帖是一件非常辛苦的事情。如果一篇帖子少有人问津,也许就毁掉了我继续在8264发帖的欲望和自信。但是最近几天看到驴友白天姑娘登珠穆朗玛峰随身携带的大小驴(8264赠送),我心动了。我也想要一只小驴,非常非常想。所以再辛苦,我也有了要把我随摄手座摄影户外网新疆之行的日志从苦心经营的QQ空间搬上8264的决心。 色色,加油! 2013年5月16日,我有幸携手爱人朗郎起飞新疆,去赴一场夏花般绚烂的蜜月之旅。 当我静静地偎在朗郎的身边、听五星级大草原上花儿绽放的美妙声音、看成群的牛羊闲闲地吃着香草、望天空里悠悠飘散的云朵缓缓漫步、追着凉凉的清风翻跟斗、感受阳光轻轻地落在鼻间上,喀拉峻的96小时,注定编织成朗郎和色色生命中最曼妙的时光。 天山下的江布拉克、赛里木湖、库尔德宁、喀拉峻(五星级大草原,世界自然遗产,待开发中)、霍尔果斯口岸,我用18天的时间细细品味。 搭车、断水断粮、穿越天山、在喀拉峻草原上疯狂裸奔......18天里的惊喜、浪漫、酸楚和悲伤,随文字和图片情景再现。 走吧,跟我一起去分享吧!一段刻骨的爱恋,爱的是伊犁,恋的是天山下的片片花海。 5月,情定喀拉峻! 初秋重走红军路,向日葵色板官方在夹金山https//bbs.8264.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1873990 内蒙胡杨、西安华山、丽江洱海、三亚环海、珠穆朗玛、川青藏,向日葵色板官方一直在路上https//393291021.qzone.qq.com 携爱启程:新疆2013.05.16 梦想是什么?黄晓明问。 梦想就是一种让人感到坚持的东西,梦想就是一种让人感到幸福的东西。 而驴行,在我每一次抬足向前的路上,总让我享受到实现梦想的无比快乐,那些让心灵自由飞舞在天与地之间的纯蓝...... 我庆幸被自己宠坏,可以这样没心没肺任性逐梦到天涯。一步,一步,再一步,直到触接彩虹般愿望的美丽翅膀,直到呼吸轻松自在的青草甜香...... 流放了自己的感情,心也变得狂野,总想广袤无垠,总想一直走在路上。 令人神往的那一片西域疆土,成为多少人一生都在追寻的梦想?未知的前方,无限延牵。 几十年终于堆积坚强,终于轻轻地靠近你,靠近你们,把自己的心帖上大地最炽热的胸膛。 我知道向日葵色板官方勇敢的脚步只是为了生命瞬间里的那一片简单,那最深处的洁净,那令灵魂安然的土地。 2012年,当36年的岁月泻在我的脸上,作为送给自己的生日礼物和送给小瑞的小学毕业礼物,我带着亲爱的她踏上了川藏线朝圣的路,直到珠穆朗玛,直到海拨5230米; 2013年,当新的年岁来叩门,我有幸携手爱人朗郎起飞新疆,去赴一场夏花般绚烂的蜜月之旅。 当我静静地偎在爱人朗郎的身边,听五星级大草原上花儿绽放的美妙声音,看成群的牛羊闲闲地吃着香草,望天空里悠悠飘散的云朵缓缓漫步,追着凉凉的清风翻跟斗,感受阳光轻轻地落在鼻间上,喀拉峻的96小时,注定编织成朗郎和色色生命中最曼妙的时光。 梦想是什么?梦想是做你永远的新娘,携爱启程,每一趟驴行有你相伴! 飞吧!为了自由自在沐浴大自然的阳光雨露! 驴行时间:2013.5.16-2013.6.02 (18天) 驴行地:新疆 主要景点:江布拉克赛里木湖天山红花库尔德宁五星级草原喀拉峻霍尔果斯口岸伊宁市果子沟赛里木湖石河子吐鲁番乌鲁木齐 驴行线路:乐山--成都--乌鲁木齐--奇台县半截沟镇江布拉克--乌鲁木齐--赛里木湖--果子沟-伊宁--新源县木斯乡天山红花--巩留县库尔德宁--特克斯县喀拉峻--伊犁哈萨克自治州伊宁市--霍城县霍尔果斯口岸--伊宁市--芦草沟--果子沟--赛里木湖--石河子市--乌鲁木齐--吐鲁番--乌鲁木齐--成都--乐山 鸣谢:本次色色的新疆之行活动团费为0元,全部由摄手座摄影户外俱乐部领队游牧为色色赞助,在此特别感谢! 领队:摄手座摄影户外俱乐部 游牧 男 QQ66907899 深圳 驴友(26位 来自中国11省、市、自治地区): 【男 12位】帮主(深圳) 沉默买买提(福建) 刘浪(江西) 赤脚仙(西安Rose) 本山大叔(广州) 牛筋(深圳) 牛粪(香港) 漫步随影(山东) 天台夜雨(广州) 海阔天空(广西乌龟) 高富帅(广州小肖) 朗郎(乐山) 【女 14位】格格(深圳) coco(广东) 琛琛(深圳) 快乐天使(深圳兰姐) 海纳百川(深圳王姐)无心无事(杭州无心) 寻思人生的足迹(广州何姐) happy(广西) 蓝旗袍(广西娟儿) 倚清风(广西) 李姐(广州) 属鼠的猫猫(苏州) 茉莉(西安) 色影驴途(乐山色色) 驴行费用:各地至乌鲁木齐往返机票+9天活动团费2800元(俱乐部领队租车、住宿、景点门票等费用)+个人开销【18天费用约为7500元/人】 驴行的毒酒,一杯接一杯,不愿意松开手,就这样沉醉其中。 2012年在网上结识摄手座摄影户外俱乐部的领队游牧,随报名参加了他组织的7月藏地深度游活动。神秘而又艰难的川藏公路,向日葵色板官方在游牧的带领下一路平安。川藏公路,世界上最美、最令人向往的景观大道,向日葵色板官方在雨季一一走过,经历的是一路阳光。 从最初彼此的不了解、不理解,到最后游牧与我之间的相互敬服。21天,让向日葵色板官方收获了除美景之外的感动,那就是共同的对大自然的狂热激情。 在那以前我一直不敢启程走西藏318线,不是因为担心路途险恶,而是一种十分的害怕。我怕最美丽的藏地行游梦不能如我所愿,所以不敢,才一年一年地拖了下来。当我第一次在四川旅游网上看到游牧藏地行游的行程表的时候,我的心怦然跳动,那是多么合我心意的驴行啊!徙步稻城亚丁4900米的五色海、夜宿4780米的神湖纳木措、看望玉带般的羊卓雍措、到达5200米的珠穆朗玛峰大本营、川藏线进青藏线出,这行程简单太完美了,于是在我搜索到游牧网站10分钟的时间内就打电话确定了报名,速度快得连我自己都觉得夸张。 藏地深度行游21天走下来,我的内心满满荡荡,一切都那么美满地划上句号,除了对游牧这个领队小有言语外,内心非常地欣赏他:我跟着他转湖亚丁五色海、看到亚丁三神山、走过川藏线上最美的草原毛垭草原、在纳木措寒冷的旁晚守晚霞、还有珠穆朗玛为我们露出整个山峰的激动、走过人生高点5230米的唐古拉山口的壮美、青藏线一路飞腾的豪情...... 每一个向日葵色板官方想多停留的地方,游牧都会给足向日葵色板官方时间玩,这是最令我满意的。早已经厌倦跟团旅行,而遥远的西藏,选择游牧的费用相对较少而又行程完美的户外俱乐部,终于让我的朝圣之旅心想事成。 2013年新年的某一天,游牧在看到我写的《徙步天堂.亚丁》游记后激动地邀请我参加他5月18日的大美新疆之行。对于新疆,其实我的内心还没有准备好,因为新疆太大了。我怕他安排的9天时间太短太短,怕我踏上疆土的脚没有能力及时抽回来,因为我总是想往前跑几步,跑几步,再跑几步。 游牧真诚地说:“色色,来吧,你的西藏游记感动了我,新疆之行活动团费我为你赞助,带你去看赛里木湖最美的金莲,看五星级大草原最美的花。” 我决定一个人启航,去赴那一场与花海的约会。一个女人,再一次独自远行...... 2013年,在我独身180天后的3月9日,驴友朗郎走进了我的生命。他握着我的手说:“色色,我不会再让你一个人走,以后的每一段旅程,有我陪你同行。”这个驴行路上认识1年半、一直走在我身后的男人,终于上前一步,走在我的左手边...... 幸福来得太快。能际遇跟自己做着同样梦的爱人并肩而行,需要多么好的人品才可以?我望着朗郎坚定的目光,感恩! 因为有你,我想,我已经准备好了。新疆,带着爱启程! 这是色色和朗郎成为爱人后的第一趟驴行,也是向日葵色板官方的蜜月之旅。 敞开心扉,期待吧! 早上7点半,在给了小瑞一个深情的拥抱过后,我和朗郎背上背包,牵着手出了门。步行到离家10分钟路程的中心车站坐公共汽车到成都双流机场。这一次没有选择坐火车到乌鲁木齐,是因为乐山离乌鲁木齐隔着3000公里,向日葵色板官方想留着时间和体力在接下来的旅程中。 人一旦出发就来不及想下一秒钟。从乐山到机场,从飞机起飞到地窝堡,像是思绪万千,又像是心潮平静。喀什爆乱和新疆前路的未知,我和朗郎一向从容。向日葵色板官方相信爱,相信自己,相信上帝的厚待。 在双流机场肯德基餐厅简单用餐 12:55分,在双流机场147#登机口,我和朗郎登上了双流直飞乌鲁木齐的CZ6942航班。南方航空飞机给我很舒服的感觉,3.5小时的飞行在不知不觉中度过。直到飞机升在5445米的博格达上空,身旁的伊梨州小妹妹激动地喊:雪山,雪山,乌鲁木齐快到了。我和朗郎都以为看到的是云海,细细一看,弦窗外皑皑的天山,脚下无边无际的疆土,激情终于燃起来:哇!博格达,你太美了! 乌鲁木齐,我来了!向日葵色板官方来了!向日葵色板官方都来了!从四面八方、从中国的11个省市,27位驴友,将演绎一场怎样难忘的疆土情缘?

摇摇晃晃中坐了1个多小时,终于看到公交站台上写着:红山市场。红山?游牧说坐51路在红山站下耶。我拉起朗郎想也没多想就下了车,一看街道门牌号,这里根本不是什么人民路。细细地问过路人才知道人民路离这里至少还有5站远,红山市场和红山是不同的两个站。哎,坑人的破51路,就以这样的形象待远方的客人的? 背着背包在乌鲁木齐街头走5站是我和朗郎干得最蠢也是最有意义的一件事,因为18天后我们离开时,我和朗郎几乎可以在乌鲁木齐的大街小巷随意穿行。 两个小时后向日葵色板官方终于看到了乌鲁木齐的金融街,看到了‘繁华’的杆,看到了人民路130号。 “你好!请问游牧帮我们预订的房间是多少号?”我问酒店前台的向日葵视频色板APP官网员 “游牧?没有这个人订过房间。”向日葵视频色板APP官网员回我 “不可能,他是领队,昨天到的。”我肯定地讲。向日葵视频色板APP官网员问我他叫什么名字。我一下愣住,想半天也想不起游牧叫什么名字。向日葵视频色板APP官网员看向日葵色板官方的装束,笑着说:“是不是戴伟?摄手座摄影户外俱乐部?”我连声点头。向日葵视频色板APP官网员小妹却为向日葵色板官方着实捏了一把汗:“不知道别人名字就跑来跟人家玩,你们太胆大了。”我耸耸肩膀:“是朋友了,去年随他走过西藏的,只是大家一直都呼网名呢。” 2013.5.1619:30乌鲁木齐人民路90号马三元牛肉面 天生抗拒面食的我,只觉得敦煌的拉条子和兰州的马六子牛肉面好吃。我和朗郎已经在街上转了半小时没见有米饭店,想试一下面前的马三元牛肉面和门口的烤羊肉串。遗憾的是,我除了喝一口面汤和半串烤羊肉外,一根面也吞食不下去。朗郎着急地说:“你喊吃面的,结果又吃不下。”我想,口味很好的他是难以理解我的这个特殊的有毛病的挑食的胃的。 我的内心很痛苦。我知道一个正常人不进食是不现实的,一天可以,在新疆我要呆接近20天,怎么办?又走了很长的路依然没发现有米饭店。朗郎开始责备我,希望我能吃些东西:“你说你不吃东西怎么能行?”有那么几分钟我甚至感觉到了绝望,心情无比沮丧,我钟爱的驴行生活会不会因为我这个对食物挑剔的胃而中断?元旦单车骑海南时也是前三天几乎没进食,后来靠8264和喝脉动保持体力,到了三亚才适应了那里的饮食...... 到乌鲁木齐才三个小时,我和朗郎因为吃东西这个问闹得心里很不舒服,彼此之间的气氛很僵硬。 乌鲁木齐国际大巴扎离人民路1.9公路,快晚上8点钟了,这里的天还亮得很,据说要11点才完全黑,我和朗郎决定先去逛逛。 2013.5.1620:30分乌鲁木齐国际大巴扎 乌鲁木齐气氛很紧张,乌鲁木齐很安全。 从过机场安检口到乌鲁木齐国际大巴扎市场,每时每刻都能看到全副武装的警察列队从身边走过,大街小巷里随处可见待命的警车,乌鲁木齐的空气很紧张。这跟前不久喀什发生的爆乱事件有关,整个新疆戒备。紧张的气氛却让我感觉到十分地安全。最危险的地方就是最安全的地方,这话用在现在的乌鲁木齐太贴切了。更何况我身边有朗郎,有一位曾经特训过的卧底后备人才,有他相伴的路我什么也不害怕。 去年7月到西藏时情况跟今天的乌鲁木齐差不多,我在拉萨的同学反复安慰我:“哎呀,向日葵色板官方拉萨安全的很啊,比内地安全多了。”感受也真的像同学讲的那样,气氛紧张但十分安全。 我对购物向来兴趣不大,所以到了大巴扎也是走马观花般看看了事,40分钟左右向日葵色板官方就要回酒店了。大批的旅游团被拉到国际大巴扎,看来这是参团旅行的一个景点。 2013.5.1622:30乌鲁木齐好美快捷酒店 从大巴扎回酒店的路上,向日葵色板官方边走边找吃的东西。好几个街边小摊正火冒三丈炒着食物,朗郎劝我多少吃一点,我不知道自己是怎么回事,别人一劝我吃我抗拒的食物我就心烦得慌,越说越烦,再劝就要发狂了。因为这个事,我曾经伤害过我身边最亲爱的人,妈妈和坐。也因为这样的怪脾气失去了我的第一次婚姻,弄丢了喜欢了20年的坐。 现在,上天好不容易给了我一个朗郎,向日葵色板官方之间依然无法逾越这道痛苦的墙,这让我无比伤心,泪流无声。我和朗郎会因为这个问无休止的争吵和沉默吗?总有一天他会承受不了而选择离开吗?我不知道。 回到酒店,两个人都不说话。像这样冷淡的场面在之前的4年里每一天重复在我面前上演,我已经受够了,恐惧,几乎崩溃。每一次绝望都会立刻引发胃剧烈的痛,这样的恶性循环对我来说是致命的。 你不喜欢,可以放开手,不要冷爆力。 正在那时,电话响了,是游牧。“色色,你到了吗?吃饭了没有?”我无比委屈地在电话这端摇头,因为我真的好饿,我想吃米饭。“米饭?有啊,快来吧,我们正吃呢,就在酒店附近......” 哈哈,米饭! 挂断电话我拉着朗郎直奔游牧吃饭的地方,游牧在街口等向日葵色板官方。游牧和朗郎是第一次见识,但一眼认出朗郎来。去年与游牧走西藏在成都分手后,我也是快1年没见到他了。 还记得当时的那句话:5月18日,乌鲁木齐见!(因16位驴友AA去江布拉克,所以向日葵色板官方提前两天到乌鲁木齐)([]

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 evalsuate 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.
