走在转山路上—前言—那一世转山转水转佛塔不为修来世只为在路上与你相遇———————————————————————————去贡嘎转山不是突然的心血来潮,是内心由来已久的向往去贡嘎不是为了与谁相遇,仅仅是因为那座山但,路上的相遇亦是我所向往的不过事实如我初衷,我始终独自走在转山路上————————————————————————————————————————————— 贡嘎山是四川最高峰,被誉为“蜀山之王”,在“中国最美的十大名山”中位列第二,近年因为国家地理的推介,前往贡嘎的徒步者越来越多,知道它的世人也越来越多,但其登顶难度极高,鲜有人能登顶此山,贡嘎山是许多摄影爱好者与户外爱好者的圣地。 我从去年开始了解这座山,去年我在新都桥与人偶遇,无意间得知了这座山峰,不过当时未曾得一见,当时两个人邀请我一起去转山,但当时才刚接触到这座山,对它不明不白的,于是婉拒了对方。回来后我不断的了解这座山,它无与伦比的美很快吸引了我,好片子看多了始终是要中毒的,吕老师的日照金山、某位兄台那不经意的转身....这让热爱摄影的我更对这个地方充满了向往,所以我逐渐确定了要去转山的行程。将近一年的时间,我不断在期待转山这一天的到来,终于,暑假的来到,也意味着我的转山即将开始。 七月对去贡嘎转山来说不是一个很好的季节,甚至可以说是一年之中最不好的月份之一,七月大量的雨水使得可以看到贡嘎山的概率大大降低,正如子梅村一个人这样对我说的“冬天来能看到贡嘎的概率是90%,现在来看不到贡嘎的概率是90%”。但对于还在上学的我而言,能抽出这么长的时间来转山也就只有暑假了。 传统的贡嘎穿越路线是由老榆林进、草科出,一般为七天,逆时针,而我的转山线是草科进、甲根坝出,顺时针。根据藏传佛教的传统,转山转水转经路线皆为顺时针,我虽不信佛教,不过还是尽量按传统来走,其实还有另一个原因是从这条线出来就到达“摄影天堂”新都桥了,且这条线几乎包含了所有观看贡嘎山的最佳平台。路线:草科—界碑石—巴望海—子梅村—贡嘎寺—子梅村—子梅垭口—玉龙西村—甲根坝用时:七天里程:约170KM(自己计算出来的,若不对欢迎各位指正)月份:七月状态:单人、重装、无GPS、无向导负重:25kg左右(出发时)途中黑线为此行路线,图片来自@西藏—假想敌制作贡嘎转山攻略:https//bbs.8264.com/thread-1883514-1-1.html 武汉至泸定段6月30日从武汉坐火车至成都,成都转客车至泸定。这次再次深入藏区,离上次入藏已近一年,这次的出发贡嘎山是第一站,后面还有好几站,总共历时原本预计60天,事实上总共历时50天整,上次的入藏虽也是长线,但也只是这次的一半。离开武汉那天并没有很多感慨,只是一个人上路难免显得有些许单薄罢了。这一上路要回来可就是将近两个月之后了。火车是晚上的,我差点错过火车,在武昌站改到了汉口站,我以为武汉站即武昌站,原来有一个站就叫武汉站,比较偏僻的一个火车站。到达成都 次日到达成都,晚点了好几个小时(天气原因),这是我入住的青年旅舍,来之前了解过,入住后发现比想象中的还好,里面外国人居多,旅馆定位人群看样子是针对外国旅客的,前台英文说的麻溜的顺。旅馆出去就是一条河,比较清静。在成都采购的食品,我是按照十天的行程来采购的成都出发前在药店称了一下背包,23kg,背包立不稳,是靠桌子上的,所以实际重量大于23kg,还不包括相机、在泸定添购的物品,所以粗略估计重量总共约25kg左右。成都至泸定路上的风景,才八九个小时,在路上经历了晴天、小雨、暴雨、阴天,真可谓风云莫测!距泸定还有几十公里,有一段小塌方DAY.1 泸定—夏家里电站泸定至甘谷地徒步,甘谷地至草科段坐车前往,下午两点左右于草科徒步至夏家里电站,夏家里电站距界碑石约还有两三公里徒步出城路上,回头遥望远处的泸定城路上的狗可多了,很凶,还好基本都拴住了,不然我要被狗追的在318飞奔,不过这小狗崽没拴着,突然跑出来吓我一跳,凶的很,用登山杖把它赶回去了。草科藏族乡,比想象中还要大些草科有很多这样的瀑布,从高山上一泻而下路上难得能见到一户人家河水非常清澈,前一段时间下雨从山上下来的山上下来的大水,当地人正在疏通在路上遇见的叔叔阿姨,他们开车来看仁宗海的,前面路上涨水了,他们过不去,于是回来了路上的涨水区,水流很急,我沿着路边的石头拄着登山杖才穿过这里路上的隧道,约一百米第一天的营地,这一路有好几个电站,在这里的是成都人,人很好,我要煮面,他们用红烧肉诱惑我邀我去吃饭,盛情之下,实在不好拒绝,遂吃了一碗。晚上在帐篷里处理脚底的血泡,双脚各一个,其实也就是第一天脚下的血泡走着很不舒服,之后的那几天倒还没什么反应了。DAY.2夏家里电站—巴望海夏家里电站徒步至巴望海,路上见过一个房子,有几个藏民,除此之外便什么人也没有,负重的压力有点大,走得有点累。仁宗海电站里夏家里电站很近,一公里左右界碑石,看过之后感觉在电站扎营比在这里要好 巴望海是往然洼沟方向去红色的石头 大路结束处的房子,从这里开始是马道,要进入后面的森林这是往巴望海去的马道的入口 原始森林中的马道,路迹很明显,沿路有马粪、马脚印 偶尔有这样的岔路口,但最后都是到同一条路的途中小憩第一条小河,踩着木桥过去的第二条河,这条很猛,桥被冲走了,想淌水过河无异于找死在河的下游发现了这三根木头,估计是被冲下来的。这是我过河的唯一希望,如果今天过不去,今晚下雨明天水会涨得更大。那就休想过河了,打道回家吧。我过河后对岸拍的,我先将所有装备卸下,无负重尝试过河,过到河对岸确定穿上装备可以过来才回去把装备穿上渡河。河水很冷,与冬天无异。淌过河之后的模样,开始下起了小雨,今天过河是正确的,明天的水会涨的更大。第三条河,木桥很结实,河水流向巴望海这段沿着河滩的路路迹有点不明显巴望海 巴望海营地,四周很安静,只有我会发出声音晚餐是面条,炉具是自己DIY的酒精炉,很好用,我贡嘎转山、亚丁泸沽湖、青藏线都是用它。由于巴望海里的水很浑浊,我只得饮用水煮面,水少了点,吃了回热干面DAY.3今日从巴望海到贡嘎寺,到的比较早,因为途中一个子梅村的藏族大哥用摩托车带了我一小段,天气依旧没有转变,满山云雾,下午在贡嘎寺的时候下起了雨,天气不好,我的心里也一直很忐忑。清晨从巴望海出发,昨晚狂风暴雨啊,还好昨天过河了,照片系三脚架自拍。路很窄、很滑,还不断上下坡,确实只有马和人能走。但,我遇见的那位子梅村的藏族大哥真正让我浑身上下每一个细胞都被他震撼了,大神啊,开着摩托车带着我和包在这样的路上飞奔。就是这辆摩托车,当时我在路上遇见藏族大哥,他说要去草科接个人,我确认我没听错,他要骑这条路去草科!我告诉他前面有一条河涨水了,骑摩托车过不去,他说去看看。过一会儿,他回来了,说过不去,他说让我上车,带我去子梅村,他说前面的路不太好走,而且也不好辨别,怕我迷路。我听了就上车了,背包绑在后面。上车之后把我吓的啊,牛人啊!我都不敢拿出相机拍照,开玩笑,动都不敢动,还照相,生怕一动车就倒了。就上面那种路,过的时候,我是真有点担心啊!不过藏族大哥牛B的技术深深的折服了我,子梅村一个支教的学生说他是子梅村第一骑手,坐上他的车啥都不用担心。出巴望海不久的山体滑坡路段巴望海的尽头是一大片参差不齐的树干这里也要淌水过河,河水真心很冷([]

——前序—— 是的,我又犯了拖沓的毛病,不晓得是因为此行归来身边突发的一些变故,还是因为深秋过后必然是冬的慵懒,总之,惰性在身心里肆意蔓延,让十.一的游记一拖再拖。几天前一个偶然的机会为一位好友翻开“七藏沟”的相片,曾经的时光乍现眼前,让我不由自主的在行前的户外讨论群里敲打上一句“我,打算写游记了……”是的,就这样,就这样轻轻地想念一下,心,便微微的悸动在行云流水的路上——记忆沿着来路,彷佛眉眼处所见到的“七藏沟”的秋色就像刚出窑的青花瓷,带着一抹薄薄的紫蓝色的晕绽放着令人怦然心动的美……——记 低首尘埃,让向日葵色板官方在这个冬季共同找回那份秋天的绚烂,和路上那个真实而温暖的你……是的,时间带不走浓于水的亲情,岁月留不住虚幻的友情,真正的情谊无需想起,因为,因为向日葵色板官方从未忘记——无论她(他)在或不在,你我都会惦念。今天,在这里,愿我那情如父母的亲人不再受尽病痛的折磨;愿此行分别后不久因交通事故离去的队友“小陈”在天堂里依旧会快乐行走……——记 生命从开始就注定了是一次出人意料的奇遇,无论从哪里启程,与亲人,与朋友,一旦相遇谁都无法拒绝和抗拒。但愿这一辈子向日葵色板官方都能带着一份美好的憧憬,笃定在一段共同的旅程上,不论分别后是再一次相逢的拥抱,还是从此化作深深的缅怀,向日葵色板官方都要感谢生命,感谢生活,感谢所有的“遇见你”……——记 是的,你可以说我矫情,只是我知道,知道这里的每一个字符都包含着梦想的痕迹,每一张色彩都代表着脚步丈量的行径,我是真心的怀念这段曾经走过的路和那路上的朋友,希望这一路无论是相得还是相失,愿我们都能记得今生的这段美好。今天,我愿把记忆中的这些东西在这里倾诉,送给所有热爱户外生活的朋友,也希望它们能漂洋过海、翻山越岭送给远方的队友——只为曾随心而行……——记1、队长:江西赣州的“窗边的小豆” 2、队友:安徽合肥的“渐行渐远”3、队友:上海的“牛马岁月”4、队友:上海的“小陈” 5、队友:广西柳州的“东南(烧烤大叔)”6、队友:广西柳州的“冰点”7、队友:浙江宁波的“一森”8、队友:江苏连云港的“大灰狼”9、队友:提前下撤的浙江温州的“山鹰山音”10、队友:提前下撤的浙江温州的“随心”11、队友:提前下撤的广东深圳的“Joey

出发前写下的话:去西藏,而且还是去阿里,世界屋脊的屋脊,不是去郊区郊游,要面对的困难以及要准备的东西真的很多,也不知道是不是真的是好事多磨,正文之前就先写写我出发前遇到的主要困难、解决办法及最后的结局遇到的困难:1.今年是毕业年,和每一个毕业生一样,要面临找工作和答辩两大问,但是工作何时能定,答辩及时能完,一切都不是我能掌握和确定的,所以我不知道自己有多长的假期,或者说有没有假期,从年后一直烦闷,直到4月底知道答辩时间这种烦闷才略有好转。2.不知道有多少人会与我同行,因为我去西藏是打算包车的,而一辆越野车除司机外是坐3~4个人,最好是4个,这样费用是最划算的,人少了就贵,人多了就得再加一辆车,4或8个人当然最好,3个,6个,7个也行,万一是5个,那就真是呜呼哀哉了。3.行程的确定,到底是走A计划还是B计划,一直在纠结,最主要的原因是考虑到妈妈的身体情况。4.钱的问,小金毛的寄养问,旗子的问,师傅6月初开大会不知道哪一天结束的问,到底我是从北京还是从广州出发的问,中间还夹杂了去长岛的旅行问。。。。。。反正就是有一堆的问等待自己去发现及解决。解决的方法及最后的结果:1.(1)答辩的时间为5月21号,不会对出行造成影响。 (2)原计划6月6号广州飞拉萨,但我4号就得离开北京,回来安置好我家的小金毛,和妈妈一起出发,但不知道师傅的会几号结束,最后会议定在1~3号,4号踏实地离开。 (3)工作方面,陆总在5月24,25号两天进行了面试和体检,再有消息是6月中下旬,对我的计划几乎不造成影响,庆幸一下,但还是尽快回来为好。 (4)省医一开始说体检时7月中下旬的事,也不会对我的计划造成影响,但是在4号晚上,北京回广州的火车上,我接到了6号一早体检的通知,顿时傻了,是不去体检呢?还是改机票呢?南航一天就一个航班,我是退南航票,买别家的呢,还是改晚一天呢?N个电话后得到的结果是,如果退南航的票,买别家的票贵就不说,而且我之前买的是来回程的票,去程不坐南航,回程就没了,所以只能改后一天,但是改后一天,我就只能晚一天办边境证,也就是6月8号,但原计划是8号出发走阿里,8号办证能来得及么?一天的适应时间我妈妈受得了么?又是N个电话加深思熟虑,最后决定所有行程顺延一天,8号是周五,还能办边境证,要是周末就又得等两天,当机立断,赶紧改机票,又是N个电话,还是火车过山洞时信号不好的时候不断拨打,最终结果就是事情安排妥当后,几十块钱电话费又没了。不幸中的大幸是6号体检,万一是7号和8号,麻烦只会更大的。2.好兄弟脖子鱼一开始就退出了西藏之行,原因是多方面的,让我深感遗憾,就和去年贡嘎一样。小悠和张扬又没时间,色狼家里不放人,小肠没经费,老婆要考试,就算不考试家里也不同意,所以身边能和我同行的还是只有康娜。3.(1)行程的确定,一开始我想过两种进藏方案,一种是成都包车走318国道到拉萨,然后再去看珠峰,二是先到拉萨,再包车到处走,后来因为年后去云南,走梅里线的时候,一天坐12小时汽车,实在是烦了,所以改成了直奔拉萨。还有就是到拉萨的交通工具,开始时想坐火车的,但是票不好买,而且火车时间太长,向日葵色板官方的时间也有限,所以就改成飞机直飞,到拉萨再适应吧。至于到拉萨以后再怎么走,最后我选的是A计划,去阿里,因为实在是太喜欢看雪山了,心中太执着了,而且妈妈再不去,以后的身体条件更不适合了,这次不能说没有危险,我只能做好充分的准备,高原安,红景天,氧气,甲强龙,一个都不能少,而且先去看珠峰,万一不行,可以方便下撤。 (2)包车的问,找了很多家旅行社,报价从20000到24000不等,最后选择了一个最便宜的,也是给我感觉最好的一家。由于向日葵色板官方只有3人,一直还想再找到第4人,尝试了现实里拉人,网络上找人,最后未果,只能盯着高昂的车费出发,但愿风景能值回票价。 (3)第一次定机票时也出现了小插曲,导致原本十几分钟的事情愣是弄了一个半小时,最后的结果还不错,票都买下来,而且我也和那个客服代表熟悉了,以后订票又多了条私人关系。 (4)其他方面的问也一一解决,钱筹够了,小金毛放小舅家寄养了,摄影攻略找到了合适的了,装备也整齐了,药业买了。总的来说就是麻烦和困难很多,但都一一排除以及克服了。去西藏我一开始以为是需要三样东西,时间、金钱、身体,但后来我又发现需要魄力,但到了4号晚上接到体检通知的时候我有发现,还需要第5样,就是运气,如果我这次无法成行,无法圆梦,只能说明我暂时还与西藏无缘,但无论成行与否,所有的艰难困苦都将是对我的磨练,而我也从中学到很多东西,希望这次的圆梦之旅能顺利完成!出发前,先展示一下朋友们对向日葵色板官方的祝福,这是刚拿到旗子的时候拍的,到出发的时候,整面旗子都已经是名字了,可以和后面的照片对比 DAY1广州——拉萨444AM 睁眼,等待5点的到来,在等待的过程中赶到了淡淡的哀伤,是为什么呢?是这趟旅行的花费太高了,舍不得了?很多好友无法同行,亲爱的老婆也无法同行的缘故么?头天睡觉前看了一篇别人的游记,一路的风霜雨雪,没有美景,只有痛苦,我是在担心风景不给力么?500AM 起床,HR:53次/分。老妈起床时说昨晚吃了高原安后头疼,晨起还好点,这TMD是啥情况?不是假药吧!700AM办完登机,选择了安全通道那排座位,其中一个靠窗,航拍雪山是肯定不可少的,机场测得海拔27米,113°17′51″E,23°23′28″N。 飞机从广州至重庆一路的行程都是厚厚的云层,我的心也如云层一样厚重,我不希望蓝天,白云和阳光被乌云遮蔽。向日葵色板官方的飞机在重庆经停,再起飞前广播说起飞时间延后50分钟,但最终只晚了30分钟,在等待起飞的过程中,测得重庆的数据:海拔252米,106°38′12″E,29°43′4″N。飞机从重庆到拉萨的过程中,云层越来越薄,最后都已经变成小块状的了,地面已经能看见了,雪山也能看见了,我的心情终于也多云转晴了。快降落时我发现了,在西藏,天云地是如此的接近,这是以前从来没有体会过的感觉,在广州长大的我,从来都觉得云彩是高不可攀的1500 到达拉萨贡嘎机场,海拔3623米,91°7′57″E,29°39′52″N。向日葵色板官方住在天树花园酒店,下午算好日落的时间到布宫拍照,一开始夕阳被云朵挡住了,但是后来还是出现了,由于布宫不是非常准的坐北朝南,所以夕阳只把金顶和向日葵色板官方照亮了这就是在药王山的角度拍摄布宫,算是拍摄布宫的准照的机位吧,票价2元/人。今天从海平面直飞拉萨,轻微头疼(主要是同时拎着60来斤的行李),在药王山拍布宫时抽烟,头疼加重,但过会就好。说到在药王山拍摄布达拉宫,这里确实是个不错的机位,但是,来的人实在太多了,基本上拍出来的照片只要不是跑焦的,基本上都差不多,除非有很好的阳光和云彩作为衬托,不然我觉得,以我的摄影技术,想在这个位置拍出出彩的照片,难度恐怕很高。DAY2:拉萨晨起HR:70次/分,一晚上头疼,醒了多次,不过很快能再次入睡。上午去百益超市买干粮,罐头,零食等东西,以备大北线上没有吃饭的地方不至于饿死。我有一本摄影攻略,作者叫老鱼,下午我去布宫东侧拍摄布宫时,来到一个叫做老鱼饭局的餐馆,结果一聊才知道这个餐馆就是攻略那个老鱼开的,而且他本人就在餐馆内,于是和老鱼交流摄影经验,留了他的电话,然后就走去大昭寺,准备拍磕长头了。先用长焦拍,效果一般由于这个地方环境狭小,而且光线明暗差异很大,加上人多,动作杂乱,所以感觉用长焦拍摄不方便,就换上了24-70这个镜头,下面这张照片是一位藏民在给一个不知名的炉子里添加酥油。这是我很喜欢的一张照片,经幡与藏民,不能说每一个经过这个经幡的藏民都会虔诚的用额头来触碰这些经幡,但大多数都会停下脚步,用身体某个部分去与之接触换个角度看这个经幡,其实是某个东西的基座,远处是大昭寺的金顶,双鹿法轮就在我拍摄这个经幡的时候,一位藏族的大妈来向我化缘来了,可不要以为藏族同胞都是好吃懒做喜欢行乞的,而是他们为了心中的信仰,在朝拜途中实在没有经济来源时才向同胞求助的,我当然要慷慨解囊了,而且正好和老大妈说让她别动,当我的模特,说起来搞笑,这是我第一次付费拍摄,代价是5元,可惜当时没带外闪,阳光从头顶直射下来,加上大妈的帽子有宽大的帽檐,导致了他面部完全在阴影里,只有下巴有点亮光,没法把她脸上的神态和纹理拍摄清楚总觉得刚才在大昭寺门口没有拍到自己满意的照片,尤其是捕捉不到人们磕长头时的景象,非常的不甘心,于是我再次换上70-200焦距的爱死小白,蹲在大昭寺门口边上,换个角度,不从侧后方,二是从正侧方尝试抓拍,结果拍到了一张我很满意的照片,照片中的老大妈的虔诚一度让我忘记了按下快门,因为在那一瞬间,我的脑子不是在思考怎么拍照,而是在思考这大昭寺里面究竟有什么东西那么大魔力,让这位大妈这么身亡,这么诚心的跪拜没多久老妈和康娜来了,向日葵色板官方就到大昭寺广场外的藏餐馆吃饭,然后再度折回大昭寺,我妈每次看到这些小东西,都会忍不住停下来看看,有时候不得不说这些小玩意是挺吸引人的大昭寺广场永远都有转经的人流,这一天,向日葵色板官方并没有随人流转大昭寺,但是当我们从大北线回来以后,向日葵色板官方在此转了一圈本想在经幡边上打旗子的,但是保安不让,我只好站在经幡边上让康娜给我留影了,恰好有转经的人经过,我的相机也记录下一个游客与一个信徒之间的差异,我是用手随意地触摸着经幡,她是用额头虔诚的靠近经幡,其实当时我不是故意这么做出对比的,只是当时我是在思考问的时候,康娜给抓拍的,不知道这样一个不经意的动作,算不算是内心的自然流露呢前面说错了,原来向日葵色板官方这天也是转了大昭寺的,这张照片是我妈在选购小玩意时,我等她的时候抓拍的,其实在这一路上,磕长头的人有很多,但是要抓到一张自己满意的,并不是那么容易的,因为你既不能走得太近去打扰他们,又不能离得太远被人流遮挡镜头,所以想要拍一张好的,真要花点心思转经筒在八角街随处可见,大到要双手才能抱起来的,小到可以当手机挂饰的,款式太多,眼都花了,用店家的话说,总有一款适合你向日葵色板官方汉族人过年帖对联,藏族人是在屋顶插经幡,过年的时候把去年的旧经幡取下,但不是随意丢弃,而是统一集中到某个特定的地方,让其慢慢风化,回归自然。给我的感觉就是,他们很重视这些经幡,即使他们旧了,也不随意丢弃,而是给他们找个好归宿最后,夕阳西下,天公作美,送了我一张这样的照片。从大昭寺出来以后给老婆买了唐卡,然后坐人力三轮车回宾馆。在回程时和蹬车的人聊天发现他是个伟大的父亲,蹬了16的车,今年42岁,也就是说在和我一样年纪的时候就开始蹬车了,而且就是靠着蹬车养活了4个孩子,最大的孩子马上就要大学毕业了,突然觉得他很伟大,我在26岁的时候还在四处乱花钱,人家却已经靠着卖苦力养家糊口了。没有给这个伟大的爸爸照相,因为我不知道怎么用照片来表达我当时的感受,所以只能以文字表述了。DAY3 拉萨——日喀则630起床,700出门去拍布宫日出,地点已经选好,就是昨天去过的老鱼饭局,因为早上的缘故,选择了在布达拉宫的东面,顺光的方向拍摄的,这也是为什么在下午的时候要在药王山拍摄的原因,就是不想逆光。当第一缕阳光照到布宫时,我得到了这么张照片在思考光圈,快门,色温以及构图的时候,我无意间发现天上的云彩似乎呈问号状,于是拍了一张布宫在思考的照片太阳越升越高,布宫呈现明暗相间,可以和第一缕阳光刚照上布宫那张比较一下 1000 陆地巡洋舰正式起航,开始向日葵色板官方阿里大北线之旅,出发前公里数:315917KM1200 到达岗巴拉山口,这是第一个能看到羊卓雍错的地方,也是拍摄羊卓雍错准照的地方,天气好的话,还能看见远处7000+的宁金岗桑峰,这天虽然云比较多,但雪山还是为我露出了笑脸和藏獒合影完后,向日葵色板官方第一次打旗,现在的旗子已经是慢慢的祝福了顺公路下行一小段,来到一个不知道算不算是观景台的地方,换个角度继续拍摄羊湖,在这里我先用牦牛当前景照相,感觉不错,可我照完以后居然有个藏民过来和我说要收5元,我不乐意了,我说我拍之前你不说,现在说什么意思,要不我把照片删了行了吧,那老哥说删了也收钱,我听了就来气,直接无视他继续拍照再来一张羊湖的准照,因为这个地方基本上是人人都会选择拍照的地方,所以拍出来的也都差不多,要真想找不同的角度,除非到对面的山头上吧,这张照片很好的说明了,在晴天来到羊湖的重要性,因为天上的云彩会严重影响湖面的颜色左边是我,中间是同学康娜,右边是我妈虽然一干朋友没能同行,但打个旗,让朋友们看到这张照片的时候,也算是心里好过点吧,至少我在看到美景的同时,是想着和你们一起分享的最后当然少不了接片了,因为羊湖很大,而且形状极其不规则,湖水分布在山脉之间,所以是不可能照全的,除非从上往下航拍。这天多云,湖面不是纯蓝色的,而是蓝黑相间,虽没看见最美的羊湖,但此景对付我这种凡夫俗子的审美,那是绰绰有余了,借用一哥们的话说,湖面如同磨砂玻璃一样,呵呵([]
这是去年的事儿,算起来,去年的今天正是出发的日子,已经一年了。 游记写完了加起来一算,竟有13万多字,想了想,还是在这儿交个作业,如一位朋友所说,“唯有记录下旅途上的点滴,才能不辜负那些路上的人和事。”也算是借8264,对曾经在路上给予过帮助的人致以谢意,路上遇到的朋友说不定也会看到这篇作业,问所有人好。 文笔不好,流水账,拍照技术有限,仅为记录,选了两千张图片一起交上来,因为工作比较忙,只能空闲时间慢慢更新,不知道什么时候完结,但肯定不会太监。 先谢过所有来捧场的朋友,如果您能坚持看完,就是对我最大的鼓励了。 路上卡片机随手录的一些片段,回来简单做的视频。 《搭车去尼泊尔》目录: 搭车去尼泊尔 之 前言简介、行程概览、费用统计、装备情况等 一、启程,南昌→昆明 二、单车逛昆明

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

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

备注:因为包的容量有限,也考虑到背负后的重量,后来就没有带移动硬盘、溯溪鞋、望远镜等一些物品。打包后也没有刻意去称重,估计所有东西加在一起约25KG,路上有时还会补给干粮和水。当然带了的东西也并不都是全部用上了,有些东西确实无形之中给后来的徒步增加了负重,很痛苦,但具体情况不一样,自另当别论。 出发前的全部家当了搭车去尼泊尔(一):启程,南昌→昆明 D1-D2/2011.7.21-22 这是南昌的七月,夏天最为火辣的时候。阳光像针一般,刺在皮肤上,空气闷热而干燥,知了在樟树叶子下有气无力地呻吟。即便坐在屋里一动不动,汗水都可以沿着脊背涔涔而下。 我背着硕大的登山包,走下楼去,桑送我到公交车站。因为将离开南昌,半个月前,我就退掉了在市区租的房子,混在朋友的租房里,连同所有的行李,七八个大包裹外加一辆自行车,搬过去的时候整个儿就一搬迁户。 2路车,哐啷哐啷,驶向火车站。公交电视上全是姚晨的大嘴广告,“赶集了!”,放了N+1遍,更添聒噪。身上早已被汗水浸透。 进了火车站候车室,人群密密麻麻。我排在队伍的最后面,去昆明的车还有不到一个小时发车。 突然手机响起来了,一看是朝阳姐!她说,她和兔子、云飞扬姐,还有小黑要来火车站给我送行,问我在哪儿,我告诉了她位置。穿过拥挤的人群,我翘首寻找,终于看见兔子穿着橘红色的前进队服,在人群里大声叫着“盼盼!盼盼!”大家的突然现身送行,是我没有料到的,很感动。 短暂的话别之后,带着飞扬姐送来的水果,还有大家的叮嘱和祝福,踏上了火车。 到昆明的这一趟车是一节绿皮慢车,人们被封闭在车厢里,就像附赠了免费桑拿,浑身的汗水如黄河滚滚而下。对面的一位大姐中暑了,另一位大婶在跟她掐人中。 已记不清流了多少次汗,T恤一会儿干,一会儿湿,身上黏糊糊的,像在岸上打滚的泥鳅。过道上站了不少人,很拥挤,跋山涉水走了5个车厢,没有热水,泡面也懒得吃了。到夕阳西下的时候,温度才渐渐降下来。 夜深了,车厢里的旅客们大多已经倚斜着头睡着。我完全没有睡意,望着窗外发呆,晚风一阵接一阵灌进来,凉快透了。心里突然有一点小迷茫,为这未知的行程。 列车不紧不慢地驶着,到第二天早上才出湖南,进入贵州。进入贵州之后,山区渐多,天气终于不那么炎热了。火车穿过一个又一个漆黑漫长的隧道,看见黔东南的一片秀丽山水,一路是连绵起伏的山,山谷内间或有三两人家,屋舍虽陋小,却俨然有致,屋前阡陌曲折,鸡犬相戏,稻田泛青。 坐着或站在我周围的,是一群从江西前往云南的打工者。他们,一行十人,来自赣州石城,听同乡说在西双版纳有事做,于是集体前往那边打工,全部站票,南昌到昆明仅这一趟绿皮车,三十多个小时,他们说,这车是给没钱人坐的,好车都不往西开。他,来自新余,自言二十岁出来就到昆明打工,基本上一直生活在那里,上个月他还回了趟老家,家中还有两个念书的娃。他和他,都是江西老表,他在北京、唐山等地的工地上呆过,这次要去西双版纳,他一个表妹的老公说可去那边做缅甸的玉石生意,他也是来自工地上,呆过四川、青海等地,这次他准备到昆明谋事,俩人相谈甚欢,互通名姓,居然是同姓本家,于是互留手机号,于是这老乡在异地就有了纽带。我喜欢在火车上默默听这些人的经历和故事,这样会更了解中国,不管他们将去何方,祝愿他们都有一个好的明天。 在路上列车停下来的时候,山区里,会有一群小孩子追着列车卖山梨,梨很小,一块钱两枚,但买的乘客不少,因为这趟列车时间太长,还没有热水。卖梨的孩子在铁道上随着旅客的呼声来回奔跑,扒在车窗上,双手捧上梨,接过乘客手里的硬币,不一会儿就卖完了两篮,累得满头大汗,但脸上挂满笑容。真希望他每天的生意都这样好。 进入云南已是第二个黄昏过后。第二天晚上十点多,历经三十一个小时后,火车抵达昆明。老友肯早已和他女朋友在火车站等候我多时了。打的到白马东区,住在肯单位的宿舍。肯曾和我一同进入南昌的单位,但几个月后转奔昆明,好几年未见。他长我八岁,在南昌时向日葵色板官方曾住隔壁,经常一起做饭、打桌球。听说他不日即将大婚,房子隔年也将交付,真替他高兴,真心祝福他们幸福。 是晚太累,好好洗了个澡,粘床便睡着了。我在人群拥挤的火车站,排在队伍后面,等待着开往昆明的火车。在火车上拍的,初见云贵高原。在火车上拍的,铁路下面就是河流与峡谷,火车在崇山峻岭间行驶,穿过了一个又一个隧道。路上列车停下来的时候,就会有这样的小孩子追着列车卖山梨,梨很小,一块钱两枚。卖梨的孩子在铁道上随着旅客的呼声来回奔跑,扒在车窗上,双手捧上梨,接过乘客手里的硬币,不一会儿就卖完了两篮,累得满头大汗,但脸上挂满笑容。火车上,第二个黄昏时的夕阳,将远处的山峦笼罩在金色的余晖中。 搭车去尼泊尔(二):单车逛昆明 D3/2011.7.23 早上醒来,肯加班去了,我骑了他的山地车出门,一个人逛昆明。 相对于内地的夏天来说,春城温度并不高,但阳光很晒,紫外线比较强,如果不穿长袖、不戴遮阳帽,一会儿就会觉察到胳膊、脸上热辣辣的。 先计划骑车去爬西山。在市区内辨路时,正好遇到一伙昆明的车友骑车出游,一看见车友,我就感到很亲切,追上去问他们去哪儿,他们说去易门,一天往返,一百来公里,还有后援车,在得知我也是外地过来的车友后,还热情地邀我跟他们一起同去,我是非常想去,但时间有限,遗憾不能同行。问他们去西山的路怎么走,他们告诉我会经过山脚下,让我跟着队伍,于是跟着昆明车友的队伍,骑行至西山脚下,然后告别。 虽然西山最高峰罗汉峰的海拔有2511米,但因为昆明本身地处高原,海拔比较高,所以西山的相对海拔并不是很高,只有几百米,骑车爬起坡来难度并不大,二三十分钟就可上去,一路有很多车友来此锻炼,或正爬坡,或正疾驰下山,再加上徒步的游客,山路上显得很热闹。昆明西山,华亭禅寺这里长眠着一个年仅24岁的年轻音乐家——聂耳,中华人民共和国国歌的作曲者。骑上西山后,在山顶俯瞰滇池,蓝天白云下,滇池漫无边际,一碧如海。滇池的水非常绿,因为滇池属富营型湖泊,部分水域呈异常营养征兆,水色暗黄绿,内湖有机污染严重,导致湖水绿森森的像油漆一样,走在湖边还能闻到死去鱼虾的腐臭。政府为治理滇池污染,连续投入已超过40亿元,但收效甚微,目前仍呈重度污染状态。快艇疾驶过滇池昆明徐霞客纪念馆、昆明杨升庵纪念馆。徐霞客是中国户外界历史上公认的大侠,杨升庵是明代三大才子之一、正德六年状元。碧树掩映下的升庵祠升庵祠前的睡莲已悄然绽放碧峣精舍。杨慎(升庵)曾经讲学的地方。午后的巷子内,光影斑驳。滑过滇池上空的缆车滇池附近的湿地公园,生态环境很好船房河。船房河岸的午后很静谧,茂盛的湿地、水鸟、鲜花,浓密的树阴下,有人乘凉,有人垂钓,有人看书,有人野营聚餐打扑克,有人在吊床里享受甜蜜的梦境。西华园,午后,休闲的人们,更像是一个亲子乐园,来回奔跑玩耍的孩子们。西华园内,放风筝的小女孩西南联大旧址,在今云南师范大学校内国立西南联大原教室,看样子应该是在遗址基础上整修或重建的。夕阳余晖下,让人对那个大师辈出的年代,神往不已。闻一多先生衣冠冢西南联大纪念碑翠湖公园的荷塘 这一天骑着车在昆明市区内逛了十来个小时,一直到晚上八点才回到肯的宿舍。我告诉肯,明天就打算离开昆明,往西走,开始真正的搭车和徒步旅行。晚上,两人好好腐败了下,喝了点啤酒。 出发前,我心里并不是很有谱,因为我从来没有搭过顺风车,不知道具体该如何去操作,上网查了一下出市区的路线,弄清楚怎么坐公交出城,决定到城外再去找机会,又查了下云南各地车牌号的字母代号,大致知道了走滇藏大致要搭往什么方向去的车。 只能跟自己说,祝我好运。然后睡觉。 未完待续搭车去尼泊尔(三):第一次搭车的艰辛,大理古城,洱海露营 D4/2011.7.24 今日行程:昆明→大理,搭车2次,里程300公里。徒步约7个小时,徒步里程30公里。 离开昆明的这一天我起得很早,5:40,按计划今天要搭车到大理。收拾好包,和肯告别之后,6:50离开了他住的宿舍。我走在大街上,径直向最近的公交车站。先乘公交到了明波家具城,下了车,下车之后的我一时有点茫然,周围是高架桥,众多过往的车辆,清晨的环卫工人在打扫马路,空气中弥漫着灰尘。 “嘿,伙计,现在没公交车了,轮到你搭车了,赶紧的啊!”我仿佛听到自己在心里跟自己这样说。可是我不知道该怎样去搭,我从没搭过顺风车,该怎样把车拦下来,并说服人家免费搭我呢?我的心跳咚咚加快,手足无措,接下来该……?现在回想起来,当时的紧张确实有点搞笑,但对于一个没有尝试过搭车的人,心里完全没谱,第一次的心理活动就是如此。 我在心里转过了很多个想法,该怎么拦,拦下来怎么去说,要是别人不搭我该怎么办,等等诸如此类的情况,但想得越多反而越紧张。我想起《搭车去柏林》里的拦车的姿势,矜持地举起了右手,朝上竖起了大拇指。 但不得不说,非常没底气,举手的姿势很不理直气壮,而且脸也不敢往后多看。这么多过往的车,我总觉得我的姿势很别扭,于是伸着手臂,埋头往前走,侥幸地希冀着有车能停下来。 显然,这样是没效果的,因为首先,这是在市区高架桥下面,这么多车没人会突然停下来,搞不好后面的车就追尾了;第二,我埋头朝前走,别人连我的脸都没看清,怎么可能停车;第三,也许这些车根本就不去大理,只是在市区近郊活动。 我就这样走着,沿着马路走了四十分钟,走过了高架桥,到了高速和国道的分岔路口。一路很多车经过,但这么久了根本没人鸟我,伸着手在路边半天别人看都不看,让我有点小受伤。我在岔路口徘徊着,到底是沿国道继续走呢,还是在高速路口继续等呢?如果走国道得走到什么时候,在路口等好像这里也不方便停车……纠结死我了。这时,一伙山东大学的自行车队,沿着国道320方向,穿着统一的T恤,打着旗子从我身边过去了,经过我身边的时候见我背个大包站在路边,还冲我喊加油,哎哟,小振奋,于是决定:沿着国道走! 边走边拦,依旧没车睬我。突然有个面包车在前面停下来了,我的心跳在加速,感觉血脉贲张,赶紧跑上去。开车的是个女司机,大姑娘问我,到哪里,我说去大理,她说不到大理,我说到前面下也行,她问我出多少钱,我叽里咕噜地说了一大通,表明自己是个旅行者,准备徒步和搭车去尼泊尔的,想搭免费车等等,那姑娘尴尬地一笑,摇上车窗,开走了。我站在原地还没反应过来,感觉有点懵,回味这笑是什么意思,意识到自己像个SB,心想,说那么多干嘛,不就是蹭车搭吗,可又一想,说得具体点,这不显得我真诚嘛!得,得,没人搭,走路吧。 走了一段,天开始下雨,套上防雨罩,撑开伞继续走。后来雨停了。爬上一个大坡,已经离市区很远了,有点累,把包扔在地上,站在路边等。依旧没有车停下来。后来,一辆面包车停下来了,隔着窗问我出多少钱,可想而知,我说想搭车后又开走了。 我有点沮丧,开始怀疑,是不是我的搭车方式有问,还是,车根本就不是这么搭的?想不明白。 功夫不负有心人,大约九点半,终于又停下来一辆面包车。司机本来想跟我谈价钱,但听了我的讲述后,告诉我去大理不应该走国道,而应去高速收费站等。往前面一公里就是去高速的路口,可以载我过去。我兴奋极了,菩萨诶,终于开张了!搭一公里也是搭啊,赶紧把包丢上车。 搭我的司机是彭大哥和另一位大哥。不一会儿到了路口,下车跟他们说再见。然后沿着土路走了一段,绕到杭瑞高速/G56上,又往前走了一段,到达昆明西收费站。 站在高速路边,我心里充满期待,这里有无数辆车经过,我以为机会大大的有,马上就可以走人,结果再一次失望了。每秒钟都有好几辆车过去,但没有车停下来问津。阳光暴晒,我在路边伸着手臂,手臂都快举断了。转眼四十分钟过去了,我又开始怀疑是不是我的方式有问,于是跟眼镜牛(当时他在搭车国境线)发信息,说怎么拦车都没车停下来,咋办,眼镜牛说最好上去问,多谈谈。我想这里不是加油站,不太方便交谈,然后我又想了想,是不是司机不知道我这姿势是想搭顺风车啊?还是不知道我要去哪里就不停?于是,我掏出日记本和笔,写了两个大大的字,“大理”,平举在胸前。虽然我感觉还是有点怪,但总算表明自己的意图了。 但这块牌子也并没有让我立刻搭上车,眼看着眼前一辆辆车经过,有的司机还瞅我的牌子望了一眼,但就是没停下来。一开始我有点焦急,像热锅上的蚂蚁,毫无头绪,手臂平举着久了也酸痛不已,后来慢慢淡定下来,安慰自己,也许是缘分没到吧。 在昆明西高速收费站,在那尴尬地等车的一个小时里,我看着眼前经过的成百上千辆车,却没有属于我的缘分,直到欧大哥和黄女士的车在我旁边停下来,问我去哪里,我说去大理,他们说上车吧,那一刻,我突然有点感动,一下子参悟了搭车的真谛,“从现在开始,我开始相信缘分,有些人就是在特定场合特定时刻来让我遇见的。” 欧大哥是一名律师,黄女士是他女朋友,在法院工作,小俩口要从昆明去德宏接一件案子,会路过大理下关,于是载上了我。聊天中,他们得知了我的旅行计划,很感兴趣,不时问我一些关于西藏的问,欧大哥说还没去过西藏,想什么时候自驾带上女朋友去玩一趟。车厢里响起BEYOND的《海阔天空》,我说,我也挺喜欢这歌的,欧大哥会心一笑。 我坐在后座上,欣赏着窗外的景色,一路蓝天白云,绿色的田野和山峦,风自由地吹着,心情像天气一样好。三百公里的路程结束了,下午两点,大理下关,我下了车,告别欧大哥和黄女士,目送他们的车去德宏。谢谢你们。 在下关吃过午饭,准备坐车去大理古城,一开始走错路,问路,转车,终于到达大理古城,下午暴走大理城中各处。大理是座很漂亮的古城,但也有大多热门旅游景区的通病,人太多。 快天黑时,我准备去洱海边扎营,开始往洱海方向走。在大理城内眺望洱海,似乎很近,以为很快就能走到,但走起来才发现错了。一个多小时后,天已经黑了,我在一片水稻田中间的土路上,连洱海的影子都还没见着。白天本已负重走了一天,此时早已心力俱疲,浑身酸痛,进也不是,退也不是,人都快疯掉。错误地轻信了高原上的视觉距离,看山走死马啊。硬着头皮往前走,后来到一个叫小邑庄的村子,跟两个小孩子问路,确认没走错路。进一条窄巷,穿过村子,终于到达洱海边上。 洱海边有几个小孩子在洗澡,我选好扎营地址,几个小孩子好奇地围过来,七手八脚地帮我搭帐篷。搭好帐篷,坐在湖边发呆,过来几个散步的游客,成都的一家三口,天南海北地聊了一会天。后来村子的村长经过,也聊了一会,他说他承包了洱海的一个片区,负责清理垃圾,政府每月补助800块钱。他走的时候反复叮嘱我好几次,一定要注意安全,这里的治安并不是特别好,我点头答应。 帐篷搭在伸向湖的一条石头路上,洱海边就我一个人,有水鼓荡的声音,鱼跳动的声音,还有远处的狗吠,蒲草间的虫鸣。晚风轻轻吹着,我坐在海边的石阶上,对岸有灯火,天上有漫天星斗,除此之外,一切静极了。 那个晚上,上半夜洱海边的风特别大,由于是石头路,没法打地钉,我的帐篷晃来晃去呼啦啦直响,明显地感到被风压向了一边。挂在帐篷上的手电光也是飘摇不定,好像风雨夕的烛火。我睡在帐篷里,感觉很揪心,担心我的帐篷杆被刮断,或者外帐被风掀走,那就是个十足的杯具啊。其实晚上那个村长过来和我聊天的时候就说,晚上这里风很大,我说我一百多斤的重量压在帐篷里还能把我帐篷吹走?是的,的确是吹不走,但是风可以把我的帐篷当气球玩,一会大一会小,还玩得挺带劲。风,你能不能不要这么调皮地玩我的帐篷?我只祈祷今晚不要下雨,否则明天就会在洱海中游泳的梦境中醒来…… 结果,后半夜风就悄悄遁了去,一夜无梦到天亮。(手机照)我搭的第一辆车,司机师傅是彭大哥和另外一位不知名的大哥。在昆明城外的320国道上,从某坡顶搭我到去高速的路口,虽然只有一公里,但对我来说意义很重大。我搭的第二辆车,欧大哥和他的女朋友黄女士,从昆明西高速收费站搭我到大理下关,300公里。他们从昆明去德宏出差经过大理,载上了我。崇圣寺三塔之一崇圣寺三塔之一大理古城北门大理古城大理古城大理古城内的街道树下冥想的老者大理的洋人街大理古城的街道大理古城内,骑单车的外国美眉大理古城内的建筑古城内的流水大理五华楼城门开灯饰品店琳琅满目的灯饰大理古城地理识大理古城家家有流水户户有繁花苍山上的云徒步去洱海的路上,一片水稻田洱海边露营的夜晚洱海边的夜晚布满繁星搭车去尼泊尔(四):洱海日出,丽江漫步,夜宿黑龙潭 D5/2011.7.25 今日行程:大理古城→丽江古城,搭车2次,里程165公里。徒步8公里。 早上天刚亮,在我露营的码头就有附近的村民前来洗衣、挑水、散步,窸窸窣窣的脚步声,没办法再睡,只好起来,拿了相机坐在洱海边等日出。我在洱海边的营地。天边现出朝霞,等待日出。洱海边的村民,在湖里捕鱼。洱海边的村庄朝霞洱海日出收拾好营地,准备启程,自拍一张上路吧,对着我的影子说。大片的稻田,穿过这片稻田,远方就是大理古城和苍山。一开始,我沿着这条土路要走回大理城内,不过半路搭上了一位大哥的车,不然要再走一个小时。 看完日出,收拾帐篷,徒步往回走,去大理古城内吃早饭。这一段土路比较长,本来至少要走一个半小时,但走了半个小时后,路上开过来一辆小车,我抱着试试看的态度招了下手,车居然停下来了。我问司机能否搭我出这段土路到公路上去,师傅答应了。运气真好,不然我还要走一个小时才能出去。 进大理古城吃了早点,又回到马路边,开始搭车去丽江。车很多,但不太好搭,我像昨天一样,写了个“丽江”的牌子举在胸前。一直等了40分钟后,杨女士的车停在我前面,搭上了我。 杨女士是丽江人,跑旅游的,女儿刚高考完毕,报的西南民族大学,她开私家车带女儿去昆明玩,今天回丽江。车子沿着盘山公路疾驶,杨女士车技确实很赞,驾轻就熟,开得既快又稳,不愧是开车跑旅游路线的司机。路上会遇到骑单车的车友,我都会在车上跟他们大声喊加油,因为我有过经历我知道,一个人骑单车走长途,尤其是在爬坡的时候,路上任何一个陌生人的鼓励都会让人觉得倍受鼓舞,觉得世界美好。曾经那些陌生人带给我的鼓励,我要把它带给每一位单车进藏者。 快到丽江的时候,路不太好,据说是因为在修机场。下午两点到了丽江市区,直奔古城。下车的时候,杨女士突然跟我说,这样吧,你还是给点油费吧,因为向日葵色板官方毕竟是跑旅游的。我感到有点意外,因为在大理上车的时候,我就说明了自己是搭车旅行者,而且路上我也有提到自己的计划是搭顺风车去尼泊尔。但我又想了想,没做争辩,问多少钱,她说五十,其实这个价钱相对于这段路来说很公道,即使坐大巴也要这么多钱。我付给了杨女士五十元钱。 这件事确实有点特殊。一般来说,搭车路上,如果司机停下车问你,你表明想搭车,如果他说可以,那没什么问;如果说他问你出多少钱,你可以表明自己是搭顺风车,不付钱,如果他能接受,就搭,不能接受,开车走也没什么问;又或者在实在搭不到车的情况下,花点钱也是有可能的,但之前要谈好价格。有的车是专门跑旅游的,是拉客的车,不可能免费搭你,但有的车是顺路自驾的车,可能搭你,但也可能跟你讲价钱。 就杨女士的事来说,我不能说她的行为不对,毕竟人家帮助了我,如果不是这样,也许今天我会在路边等更久,也并不是钱的问,只是之前我表明了是搭车,她也答应了,后来向我收钱,确实有点意料之外。也只能说在搭车的路上,什么情况都可能遇到。我搭的第四辆车,大理古城至丽江古城。路上遇到的运送火把的车辆。那几天正好是当地少数民族的盛大节日——火把节,这辆车后面装的就是节日用的火把。车上拍的,路边的风景。 到丽江后,进入大研古镇,找地方吃饭,之后在镇上闲逛。开始太阳挺大,后来下雨,并越下越大。我在大树下避雨,看着古街上来往的游客。丽江古城给人的第一印象:小资,美女,酒吧,客栈,庭院,各种特色小店,总之,是妞们大爱的地方,来这里的妞们,喜欢披个披肩或是穿波西米亚的长裙,一副风情万种的女文艺青年样,要不就是热裤吊带高跟鞋,大秀美腿。但有一点必须承认,美女确实很多。 在城内溜达的时候,有个年轻人叫住了我,他叫小潘,从南京过来的,大三学生,他的旅行方式跟我差不多,搭车、徒步,要到拉萨去。他出门的时候带了600块钱,7.3号从昆明出来,9号走到到丽江没钱了,就一直在古城内某酒店里打工,要到30号结账。他表示想和我一起走,问我能不能等,但我估计不太可能会在丽江呆到30号,因为计划还要去泸沽湖和虎跳峡徒步,于是我说看情况吧。相互留了手机号,随时保持联系。但其实最后小潘离开丽江走滇藏的时候一直在我前面,一直到拉萨。向日葵色板官方一路保持联系,他给我提供了不少有用的信息,只是后来一直没机会再碰面,他到拉萨的时候我在墨脱,我到拉萨的时候他去珠峰了,我去珠峰的时候他又回拉萨了,我再回拉萨的时候他已经回去上学了。 刚开始进入古城的时候觉得人还挺少,直到走到四方街附近,才发现游客都扎堆在这了。天还未黑,酒吧一条街已经喧闹非常。我穿过酒吧一条街,一直往黑龙潭方向走,我想在天黑之前找个合适的露营地。进入黑龙潭是需要凭借缴纳的古城维护费收据的,为了逃票,我脱掉鞋,趟过没膝的河水,借着灌木丛的掩护,进入了黑龙潭景区。在里面转了一圈,露营地址选在湖心岛上的“得月楼”下面走廊上,这里位置绝佳,既能遮风避雨,又适合取景拍照。 晚上八点多,开始搭帐篷。此时公园里还有稀稀落落的游客,有几个山东游客见我这样很好奇,问了下我的行程,觉得很神奇,要拉着我一起合影,真是受宠若惊,搞得我都有点不好意思了。 到了晚上九点二十,景区内就一个人也没有了,灯也全部熄掉了,静得连掉根针的声音都听得到。有几只不知是家猫还是野猫,在外面叫唤,被我轰走了。打开手电,在帐篷内记日记,肚子咕咕叫,想起晚上一直在找露营地,连晚饭也忘了吃,只好啃了个苹果充饥。 公园里非常静,只剩下幽蓝的湖水和漫天的星光,我出去拍了几张夜景,回来躺在帐篷里,睡不着。我能遥远地听见山下的酒吧里传来的歌声,还有人群的欢呼声,那应该是人们在火把节上围着篝火狂欢的声音,彝族、白族的火把节要持续三天,明天会更热闹。我在山上,只有静静湖水,灿烂星河,鱼跃起拨拉湖水,水鸟的呓语。不知道为什么会想起“孤单是一个人的狂欢,狂欢是一群人的孤单”这句话,真是莫名其妙。丽江的餐馆([]

There are many like-minded asking me about it. I now present this thread to briefly tell everybody about my journey.The starting point of this traverse was from the highest peak of the western part of the Tibetan plateau, Jieshan Daban, and the day was April 20, 2010.I was heading eastward passing Bungdag Co, Yanghu Co, Rola Co, and Kangzhagri Mountain, which crossed over the desolate region from west to east. The journey continued northward to enter the unpopulated area of Altun Mountains, through Hoh Xil Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, Whale lake, ..., finally met some people by the Aqqikkol Hu and then arrived in Huatugou by vehicle three days later and that day was July 5. It had been 77 days in total. I had been all alone 74 days after leaving Jieshan Daban until arriving inAqqikkol Hu, which was about 1400km and about four months.[The Great Chang Tang] In Tibetan, "Chang Tang" means northern empty wilderness while narrowly, means unpopulated region in northern part of Tibet. However, it actually indiCATes all of the no man's land in northern. The great Chang Tang includes desolate places in Northern Tibet, Hoh Xil, Alun Mountains, and Kunlun Mountains, which are interconnected to form the unique and super empty wilderness in the world. Only because Hoh Xil is the most known name, most people just think this vast land is equivalent to Hoh Xil. In reality, Hoh Xil is only a small piece of the Great Chang Tang both administratively and geologically. The Great Chang Tang, the last land to chase your freedom and dream.The route that I traversed ForeplayI arrived in Tibet in the early March, a couple of troubles bothered me. The brand new plug got its positive and negative wrongly connected; the rivets of my rucksack eASIly got broken from now and again; and a multi-functional charger got damaged and so on. Riding my bike to Ngari for warming up of this journey, lost my rucksack but later got it back; lost my camera bag and got it back later again, and finally lost a big bicycle pannier in the street of Gyangze town under the eyes of police, including clothes, solar panel and so on.Without much choice, I returned to Lhasa to adjust all the stuff I would need in the wilderness. Then I begged some luck by going to Nyingchi to enjoy the blossoms of peach trees and to take a hot spring bath. I even had the privilege to enjoy time with ten girls in the hot spring. I felt my bad luck had all gone and then returned to Lhasa again to prepare going to Ngari. I did not expect that I was cheated on by some hustler and lost some money and delayed my schedule for a week. I had to find a car myself quickly to Nagri. However, I lost the tool for fast-parting my rear wheel on my way to Nagri, where was a remote area in Tibet and nowhere to buy the tool. Even if there was one in Lhasa it would take at least ten days for a special delivery service. I was lucky that my mate Duola asked a driver to bring the tool for me from Lhasa. I thought there should be no more nightmare like this but the nozzle of my brand new multi-fuel stove was broken. The next day I tried everywhere to weld them back together. The first three shops could not do the welding for copper. The fourth one said they could do it but could not guarantee a sUCCess. The engineer said it would be ten Chinese yuans if it was a success. I agreed. Just in seconds, my nozzle became crap in a flash of lightening. I was so upset. Again, Duola helped me by bringing her own MSR oil stove and Dingding's sleeping bag to Nagri. That was already April 16 and I did not have much time to waste. The following day I found a vehicle heading to Jieshan Daban.The sand storm over Yarlung Zangbo RiverA lonely peach tree blossoming in Yarlung Zangbo Grand CanyonNatural hot spring in wild, me singing and drinking (photo by a friend of mine) Day 1(April 20), 16km, Camping 5192mIt was a truck with a full load of iron wastes, arriving in Jieshan Daban at 6'o clock in the morning. It was still night and extremely cold and dark. Driver was not bothered to pop his head out of the driving cab. I climbed up on the top of the iron wastes, taking my bicycle down. In a hurry, I punched my old water bag. Fortunately I had another MSR water bag given by a friend of mine otherwise I would definitely fail without even starting my journey. For the first time for me to set up the brand new tent in strong, cold winds. It would be impossible to do so if the tent was not a whole piece. Extremely cold outside, about -15C, might be lower than that, I put my head into the sleeping bag but was nearly suffocated to death, honestly. The smell of Dingding's sleeping bag was, lol, so extraordinary. I woke up around 11 o'clock. There were still strong winds outside so that I had to use my bodyweight to keep the tent in place. At the time when I just started to cook and eat, four patrolling soldiers approached me. To their surprise someone, in this season, camped in Jieshan Daban. I was so nervous and afraid they were the people to block my journey because I was caught and deported from the desolate land last year. Luckily the four soldiers did not know my destination and were very kind to me. After they left, I immediately packed my stuff and pushed my bike into the depths of the unpopulated area just in case anything unexpected happened.The bike was very heavy due to the provisions and hard to control. There was even a quite small hill that I had to remove my bike panniers to get over it. This really struck me because this happened even the path was still the hardship one at the moment and I could not imagine what I would do once I entered the uncertain, endless wilderness. Until now I had not met anyone, even the nomadic pastoralists. I remembered there were quite a few of them roaming at the edge of the northern Tibetan plateau last year. All of these indicated it was not the good pasture season in such low temperature and strong winds. Around 16km there was a sheep cote, where I passed it last year, east of Lungmu Co. I was exhausted at this point so that I decided to camp in here and to rest my head. After arranging tent everything I went out to look for the wetland discovered by Duola and Liumeng last year. I was determined to find it.There were many hot springs in the wetland which were underground water with a constant temperature. The wetland therefore became an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such harsh weather, which was the very unique land feature of terrain in this over 5200m highland.Perpetual snow in the valley blown to corn shape by strong windsThis wetland was discovered by Duola and Liumeng. The workers at a nearby mine did not know it and I too missed it last yearUnderground water with a constant temperature, an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such icy weather 感谢大伙儿支持和加分,不一一回复了。特别感谢多啦,希望能有机会一起喝酒吃肉。 Day 2 (April 21), 0km, Camping5192mBlustering gale all night, up and down like ocean waves. The next day rather than continuing to travel, I stayed inside the sheep cote, hesitating and pondering over. Indeed, there were so many problems before this journey;I did not have sufficient physical preparation;the load had already reached its limitation; I still coughed a lot;the weather was so extreme and cold. All in all, I did not think this journey was well prepared and I did not have confidence in completing this journey mentally and physically. To do, or not to do, it was the question. Similarly I did not have confidence in my facilities, not knowing whether all of them would work functionally or not. The fact was one of the rivets got broken again and the front rack came loose. In the afternoon, I replaced all the rivets of the panniers with screws I had prepared before. This was an excellent job I had done which gave me no further troubles throughout my whole journey. I also re-adjusted the front rack. However I did not think it would definitely all right because I did not have a tool to do it. When the darkness descended,I made up my mind to continue my journey, which, of course, was not beyond any imagination. Orchid-like weedsSmall springs everywhere, clear and chillyA thin layer of ice covering the fresh spring water The sheep cote, it was the door under the sleeping bag, which was in the same place as last year, everything looked like yesterdayThe wetland at duskLungmu Co at dusk. You could hear the gigantic sound of wind if the picture had a sound Day 3 (April 22), 52.4km, Camping 5145mGot up in the morning, could not put everything into the bags. Without much choice I had to throw away three portions of tsampa, elbow pads, and crampons. Following the road of the lead-zinicmine I found the side path to enter the wilderness, which was on the riverbed and very hard to see. I missed this side path last year so that I had to take a short cut into the wilderness directly then. That was why I had taken extra care to find the side path. The following journey was to get over a big hill, which lay 5275m above sea level and was the highest point of my whole journey. Around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I passed the side path leading to Orba Co and started a journey which was complete strange to me. I ate a piece of pilot breads, which was frozen like rocks so that I had to use my spade to crush it. At 6 o'clock in the evening, I had pushed plus rode my bicycle for about 32 km. I reckoned I should have been able to double this if I did no carry such heavy load. The wind became stronger and stronger. I opened the parasail kits and tested it. The result was far beyond what I expected. With the aid of the strong wind I was just like flying over the wilderness. After 8 o'clock in the evening, I started to observe the water Source and to get ready to camp. Map showed there were successive springs along the path and assembled to puddles. But I had overestimated the water source here in this land and in this season there were endless wilderness inside the valley, where I could not see a single drop of water. As it became darker and darker, I felt a little bit nervous which resulted in three spokes of the parasail broken and became a useless rubbish. Anyway, it helped me to move forward 20km more which benefited me a lot later on. When time approached 9.30 pm, it was almost completely dark. I had to lie my bike on the ground and went on to try to find water on the north side of the valley. This was a wide and flat sandy land, where I could not see any ditches there and further was complete darkness. I returned to get my GPS to look up the contours and found the south part of the valley was closer to a hill so I took the way. Finally I found a piece of ice in a ditch. I smashed about 20litre of ice. The ice was quite shallow scattered with sheep poo. On my way back, my eyes were hurt by strong winds, which got me a couple of days to recover. It was nearly 23 o'clock after I set up the tent. It also took about 40 mins to melt the ice. I was so tired and my appetite was completely spoiled. I then had a little bit of milk. I had never expected thing would go like this, it was so distressing. Streams along the path, ice everywhereThe river flew into Matou Hu, in whose north part there was a satellite lake, a wonderful ice-skating court It took 40mins to melt the ice in midnight Day 4 (April 23), 31km, Camping 5028mA cloudy day with gusts. From now and again, hails chased me from behind. Sunny spell. Heavy sandy land made me have to push my bike. At 3pm, I arrived at Luxing Hu, where there was a house made of clay. This was the last permanent building of my journey. Last year, Duola and Liumeng once lived in this house for three days without meeting anybody. It seemed it was the same but the truck parking in front of the house made me worry about. I went to the sheep cote first to check over, where there were only a few lambs following me everywhere I went later on. This made me feel warm in my heart. I observed farther places using my binoculars but could not see any people or sheeps. After making sure there were no people around I opened the locked door using a screwdriver. The living room was very clean. There were two boxes of beverages on the ground and a string of cured lamb legs hanging over in the interior room. A pot of water was on the top of the stove, lukewarm, which indicated the host must be not far away from his home. I filled up my water bag and left the house. I also put the screws back to the door in order not to leave any trace of my visiting. I then took a spanner from the toolbox of the truck, which gave me great help for the rest of the journey.I left the house as quickly as possible. After last year's experience, the nomadic pastoralists were the last people I wanted to meet. A few hundred meters away from the house, the vehicle traces were fading fast. Even downhill, I had to push rather than to ride because of the heavy loose sand. From the route point of view, only after Luxing Hu it was the real unpopulated land. After many days, I thought of the lamb legs from time to time. It was pity that I then had plenty of provisions and the bike was too heavy to carry anything more. Continue to melt the ice under the morning sunshine, all of the sheep poo had been removed carefullyCamping site, the little hill over there was the place where I got the ice last nightThe house by the Luxing Hu, empty, the last permanent building I saw throughout my journeyDay 5 (April 24), 19.8km, Camping 4951mSet off at 10.30 in the morning, the weather was similar to yesterday. Probably this road was the high plain or somewhere the wind passed so that it was so windy. The average wind speed was degree 6 but could reach degree 9 in the blick of an eye. The road was still full of sand and very heavy to walk on it. My eyes became worse under such harsh weather. About three o'clock in the afternoon, I saw something in my right, looked like antenna. I went closer to see what it was and found out it was an iron tower (the triangulation station). In 1970s, a joint team from Chinese three military regiments entered this area doing research. They have left a lot of triangulation stations and benchmarks, which I had the priviledge to see them today.At dusk, I approached to a spring by the Bungdag Co, which flew into the frozon lake. The sand and soil, brought by the strong wind, scattered on the surface of the ice all over the lake. There were so many cracks around the icey surface of the lake. I geussed it must be caused by the springs under the water rather than by melted ice. In the west of the Bungdag Co was the side path leading to Keriya Pass, where a SUV could reach directly. I had looked out any vehicle Tracks but failed. The cloudy sky started to snow. I set up the tent comfortably because I knew that I was safe having such a sweet spring beside me.Triangulation station erected by scientists from the joint research team on Chang Tang of three military regiments in 1971[size=+0]The gap between water and ice in Bungdag Co, I guessed there must be some springs under the lakeThe storm just above the ground, a chaotic darkness[size=+0]Icy Bungdag Co,one of the four biggest lakes in Northern Tibet, wild ducks flying over this vastness and lonenessSnowing at any time, should not happen so frequently like this in this seasonDay 6 (April 25), 4.3km, Camping 5002mWeathering landforms everywhere around this area. Spongy volcanic rocks could be found easily. I pushed my bike turning around a small hill, seeing a big river, the Yinshui He, flowing from Orba Co into Bungdag Co, which I had been to its upstream last year. It was also a passage for animal migration. The downstream of the river was extremely wide and broad. The thickess of the ice layer could reach one meter with the main stem in the middle course of the river, very deep. There were a few springs along the river, sweet and clear.I only went forward a little bit more than 4km but I had walked more than 20km for finding my way. It was not possible to cross the main stem, let alone the north bank of Bungdad Co. What I could only do was to try to find a shallow place to cross. But the southern area was a even larger piece of wetland and forced the road turn towards west. I spent a couple of hours but failed to find a good point to cross the river. In the afternoon, I decided to follow the edge of the wetland. When I reached the hill foot, the wetland finally disappeared. Around this area, there were clearly volcanic feature of terrain and I even found traces of pasturing and cairns made from volcanic rock.Here was the last pasturing trace I found throughout my journey, I guessed it was a summer pasture area. After this, there was no clear sign of human activities in this vast wilderness. I had been looking for my ways until it was dark. I made up my mind where to go TOMOrrow. The terrain here looked like Yardang landforms, as well as volcanic landforms The Yinshui He river from Orba CoSprings scattered all over the river bank, painted green by lovely algaeThe river was very deep. The mixture of green and amber colour showed the sand and mud carried by the melted iceThick layer of ice, sunken surface caused by strong gustsThe south course of the Yinshui He, countless small streams. To the right was the wetlandLooking for ways in the east, a trace of pasturing and the cairn made from spongy volcanic rocksMy camp, opposite to the hillDay 7 (April 26), 11km, Camping 5009mI moved forward to the direction I found yesterday, turning around the wetland and walking toward east. At 2pm, I was blocked by the zigzag Yinshui He again and I had no choice but to cross it. The river was about 700m wide, covered by ice which appeared very different. The hanging ice, the folding ice, the piling-up ice, the icy puddle, and the sleet were everywhere along the river bank. Having noticed all of these, I reckoned the river would be receding at dusk, which was why there were so many different shapes and forms of ice. I put my slipper on, going into the main stream of the river. I found there were at least three different courses of the river, the thickness of the surface ice varied and the river water reached above my knees. I sighed there would be no way back once I crossed this river. There are many ways in one's life too, you can only take it once and you will no long have the courage to repeat it.I pushed the bike crossing the river. Some of the ice was a bit soft, jamming the tyres so that I had to use my feet to break them first. Some of the ice was a bit thick but with half-melted underneath, sticking the the bike completely, some of the ice was half-water half-ice with a sandy riverbed, which was really hard to pass. I had to remove all of the panniers at the last stage of the crossing. I spent the whole four hours to cross the river, my legs got many bloody cuts. At 6pm, the surface ice was almost disappeared completely, the river level rapidly rising to a chaotic status. I thought if I hesitated a little bit at that time, I could not have the courage to cross this river under such circumstances. The river bank was unimaginably sandy and was quite steep. I had to unloaded the panniers again to reach the top of the bank. By the time of sunset, the weather became exceptionally good. The sunlight from the descending sun, the blue sky, the faint moon, .... I liked such a colorful and peaceful Chang Tang and very much enjoyed my camp and myself bathed in such beautiful colour.The ice like this was very thin and suspended, far away from the main stemHard surface with half-melted underneath, the soft sand at the botton was most scaryThe ice like this could easily jam the wheels, hard to get it outI had to unload the panniersChaotic water and terrible hails turned up in no timeThe Chang Tang at the moment liked it used to be,a mixture of cold and warm tones under the golden setting sun Day 8 (April 27), 14.6km, Camping 5112mLast night, I forgot to bring in the odometer, which was out of order due to the coldness in midnight. Since then I used GPS to check the mileage. The digital thermometer was no longer working. I had to use mercury thermometer to collect data. Night temperatures were basically between –15℃—–20℃ while the temperature inside my tent was about –10℃. The advantage of the integrated tent was that it limited the ventilation so to keep warm inside. However, it got clearly disadvantage of heavy condensation and dew. Every morning, there was plenty of frost inside the tent so that I had to put my hood on First Before fully getting dressed. The winds in Chang Tang finally became consistent with the pattern I had researched the other day no or very tiny wind in the morning, strong wind started after 2pm, and then at around 8pm its strength was reduced again. The accuracy of this prediction was about 80%.The road was very bad today. I walked whole afternoon in an ancient riverbed and it was so difficult that I had to use all of my strengths to move a small step forward and then to stop to breath, slower than a snail. After five hours' struggling, my eyes got wet when I saw the grassy river bank. Finally! The nightmare was over.Cold and clear morningHeavy morning condensation in the interior, a lot of frost to clearSuch dawning sunlight indicated a cloudy day ahead Day 9 (April 28), 18km, 5072mIn the morning I entered a range of sandy roads which were so terrible. The solar panel specially designed for GPS got short circuited. After checking it was found to be the diode got damaged. Luckily I got a replacement. Because the GPS was exclusively supplied by a solar panel so that it was no longer a problem for the power supplement of GPS. In a period of 70 days, I did replace the battery once, which saved me a lot of alkaline batteries. I did have another solar panel of 5.4 W which was used specifically for 7.5V Camera, DV and other digital facilities. Unlike water, I had never been short of power.At 7pm in the evening, I arrived at Pur Co. The surface of this lake was very odd the ice by the river bank rose and the river bank was broken, I reckoned that was due to the strong winds. The ice there was mingled with something yellow, could be the stain of alkali. There were many wild yaks on the other side of the lake. There could be two brown bears but I could not be for certain. On the east side of the lake, there was a peninsula leading to the centre of the lake. I camped just opposite to the peninsula. At night , I smashed the ice to get drinking water, which tasted alkali. For the first time I cooked the cereals, which was brought completely by accident. This was just because I found there was a little bit of extra space when I was in Nagri packing the stuff for this journey so that I bought two packs of cereals. It tasted disgusting, probably there was too much alkali in the water. I threw away half of it. Later I realised that probably I subconsciously felt that the provisions was so heavy. I would rather make it lighter at any cost.Dry all my stuff in the morning sun, a routine matterA faint dusk in Pur CoThe river bank pushed up by ice and opened like zipper by gustsThe pushed up surface of the iceThe place where I got my drinking water, a thin layer of ice behind the ablation corns The moment just before sun set, glittering Pur Co, nothing was the same差点儿没找到俺自己的帖子,原来变色了。多谢各位鼓励。 Day 10 (April 29), 16km, Camping 5141mIn the morning, I walked around the north bank of the Pur Co, where it were continuous ups and downs sprinkled with light yellow sprouts across the sparse grassland. The wild yaks clustered into small groups. All of a sudden, there was a group of five of them running towards me, blowing a huge cloud of dust with the power of thunderbolts,I believed that anyone who did not know the characters of the wild yaks must be frightened to death under such circumstances. The fact was the wild yaks in groups never injured people. Rushing to you just to show you its territory. When they approached people at certain distance, they would turn sharply and run away, and then stopped somewhere high to stare at you. You can not imagine that the wild yaks were very cautious animals compared with its almost one ton of weight. Their first reaction, when meeting people, was to raise their tails, the front hooves rubbing against the ground, the horns pointing forward, the eyes redden, and the long body hair shaking, all of which showed their determination to fight.This was the warning sign that you should retreat. However, you should realise that this was only a gesture that they were afraid of you and wanted to scare you away. The thing was that if you were not afraid of them and moved forward, they would run away in no time. There were only some mad yaks attacking people, which was really rare to happen. In Chang Tang, an experienced driver know that it is very dangerous to pass directly from two or three lonely wild yaks. They always tried to avoid confronting them directly. If this was not possible, they would lit a cigarette, smoking, to wait until the yaks walked away themselves. This was because the wild yaks really could attack vehicles, which was not completely rumors. I once asked them why I had not been attacked. They told me that because my bike was so small they would not be bothered to attack it. My own experience was that approaching a wild yak very slowly, do not look into its eyes, and ignored what it was doing. As long as it moved forward a little bit, just stop and give the yaks a little bit of time to think. Because if you forced the yak, it could be themost dangerous animal in the world and nothing could stop them killing. Even a gunshot could not kill it but only left a small hole in its skin. In the past, the nomads living near this land would use yaks' skin as chopping board which was very much endurable. At noon, I lost my balacLAVA, which was brand new and I had never used it once. I could not be bothered to go back tofind it. This resulted in that I had to have my fleece hat day and night in the rest of my journey, which did not provide fully protection from the sun in the plateau. But somehow I was all right, perhaps because my skin is similar to those of yaks, lol. At around half past one, I found a deserted Jeep, upside down. I felt it could be there for years and it could be the vehicle of someillegal HUNTERs. Nowadays, we have wildlife conservation reserves in Chang Tang and the animals here are well protected. However, some people kills the wild yaks to sell them as the domestic yak's meat. In general, it is worth 10,000 Chinese yuans for a single wild yak. Therefore many people take the risk to make money. They often enter the unpopulated areas to hunt and their activities can reach 200 km in diameter. This is why the wild yaks in the deep wilderness are less afraid of people than thoseat the boundaries of the Chang Tang region.There once happened that a wild yak mother revenged its baby's murder in the Altun mountains. Its horns pierced the killer's chest and held his body over its head for more than ten days, which was very touching.Around 3pm, I walked out of the Pur basin. The next point was Hong Shan Daban and then it was the Yueya Hu by the Toze Gangri. At this time I found a vehicle track from south to north. I checked over but could not find the way where they had gone. I took my map, GPS, and compass, climbing up a small hill to estimate the location of Hong Shan Daban. The mountain was very round and it was hard to find the mountain pass. After determining the locations 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. 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([]
