单车朝圣----写在前面的话 不知道从什么时候起,我没有什么太大的欲望了,但并不是说就无欲无求了,弄的上纲上线跟了却尘缘了一样,那是不可能的,我对和尚没兴趣;只是觉得生活很简单,翻过来覆过去就那么点东西,实在是没劲。每日都这么周而复始的,你们不觉得无聊吗,但说回来吧,更像是食之无味弃之又可惜了,所以先活着,看看还有什么。 过于安份的人,是因为心里住着躁动野兽,活了二十几年了,一直都是搂着的,总觉得放不开,放开了怕大家受不了,当再次面对那些束缚的时候,我想说的是。。。去TMD。 想去那里不重要,重要的是这个过程,更重要的是这个决定。 最近有这么一段话流传着:不旅行的借口可以找一百个,比如护照不好用啊、证太难啊、英语不好啊、语言不通啊、学业为重啊、水土不服啊、没有旅伴啊、工作太忙啊、家人不放心啊、恋人反对啊、安全没保障啊、最近手紧啊、体力不支啊……但是旅行的借口只有一个:走! 我想告诉自己或者你们的,就是在向日葵色板官方仅仅能有用的活着的这几十年里,想去做任何事情,别在给自己找理由,理由多了去了,牵绊多了去了,向日葵色板官方没太多时间等时机成熟,什么时机算可行,你去做了就是TMD可行了。 —— 说点狠俗的。 有些事情, 现在不做, 或许, 一辈子都不会做了。(以上写于2012.2.14)生活总是在向日葵色板官方毫无戒备的时候对向日葵色板官方劈头盖脸的一顿毒打,向日葵色板官方不能反抗,也无法反抗,向日葵色板官方唯一能做的事就是,挺胸抬头的看着它,让它打的不开心。时隔一个的月的时间,发生了点我曾经认为可以承受,当真的发生了自己身上又承受的苍白无力,慢慢的体会着自己内心对生活态度的变化,越发的认为我的绝定是对的,希望这个决定能带给我更多的变化,心里上的或者身体上的(甩掉点荤油总是好的),可能我活的过于感性了,现在变成一个感性的胖子,我觉得认识我的人都让我渲染的开心了,可自己却没真正的笑过,可能有点自大,不过不算过,今天又看上边的话,也许有人会认为年少轻狂吧,虽然不年少了,但这次请允许我再轻狂一回。 都说是末日 我说是天堂。 ------------------------------我来了拉萨,你在那里。我爱你们,我的兄弟。 2012年3月19日 天气 无限大风 下午出发的,实在是煎熬不住了,以为双城不回有多远,从不骑车的我,让这50公里给我上了一课,到双城时候已经8点多了,路上水被冻住,什么也喝不到,走到7点多我就把预备的压缩饼干吃的光了,那个时侯看路书上说一天能骑150公里,其实我看了是在骂娘的 ____________________ 时光冉冉。到双城已接近9点,没什么力气,这是在被窝里拍的。2012年3月20 扶余风婆婆就跟死了孩子一样,大风吹,大风吹,真骑不动了。刚刚骑出来没经验,忘记带补给,东北这种地广人稀的地方你是知道后果的,只能看见无垠的苞米地咆哮,你妹的。坐骑小白登场。 很有心情放水的时候也来一张第一次上这种路的时候,悄悄的告诉你 绝望了。一个人在路上最难打发的就是寂寞,而不是这寒冷。看到一次绝望一次,这个时候我还在想什么时候我能到拉萨 到了扶余就赖在这里不想走了,找了个小旅店,在众人看国宝的眼光中悄悄的藏到屋子里 收拾东西。2012年3月22日德惠 我记得有人说话,当你去实现梦想的时候所有人都会帮助你。出发不远就遇到俩位老者也从后面骑着车就朝我来了,一路与我同行,嘘寒问暖的,着大冷天真的很温暖,可惜的是当时太过激动,忘记留下照片做个回忆。 晚上终于汇合了德惠的老胖,还真胖,不过胖的很儒雅,我曾经很自卑我头很大,他出现以后,我的后半生充满的希望。回复 ValueSun 的帖子明天吧 传不上去了,不知道为什么。人生如戏,你不知道下一秒你在那里,别活的太认真了。 2012年3月24日 在德惠休息了一天等胖子准备下,今天才出发。 早上这里的雪下的很大,其实根本就不能走的,别说骑车开车都费劲,但这心等不了了,还是走了。 暴雪的恶劣程度我不想再描述了,如图。总之正常人都要崩溃,而我瞬间正常了。 零度左右的空气让落下的大雪变成了冰水泥巴的混合物,过往的车辆有点人性的还ui走快车道,没人性的就直接迸溅到向日葵色板官方身上,每次我都会伸出中指对准他们的倒车镜,浑身上下没有一点干的地方,又冷有潮,也记不清多冷,多远,多累了,像噩梦一样在长春醒来。德惠的老胖2012年3月25日 公主岭连续扎胎4次连续大风连续上坡什么都不想说。补胎休息中。 2012年3月26日 四平从前不知道计划,后来学会计划,再后来被生活打乱计划,再后来计划着打乱生活 一天持续的大风,无限的上坡,50公里的四平天就黑了,胖子也挂了,甘闹了,我对东北的厌恶已经从肉体上升到精神,骑车东北那天我要对着北方磕一个。 第二天去看了个儿时的老友,算是这个城市给我的唯一安慰。胖子晚上家里突然有事回去了,我这盼了一路的伴也没了。 2012年3月28日 开原袜子军团一路无聊的骑行,突然发现这个大学,那些年亲的面孔在操场上流动,突然有些凌乱想到自己这十年。好像大喊一声 “青春”却像失声了一样变成一抹微笑,我闭上眼睛,张开双臂一路滑行,一路飙泪。开原的旅店是眼下路上遇见最贵的地方,在城市里跑了几公里最后才弄了个70大洋的。不过条件很好。2012年3月29日 铁岭第十天才到这里,真的有点大意了天气的威力。今天又是大风让我不在急躁,反而淡定了许多,吹去吧,你吹我就不骑。我懒的拍照 见谅。2012年3月30日一路没什么风景,到沈阳遇到一位老者,很热情的跟我聊了一阵子,我也没敢说我去拉萨 - - 忙完了许多事情天已经黑了,其实在北方这地方,我这一身装备行头想找个旅店还是有点挑战的多数时间是旅店在挑我,不是我在挑旅店,今天很幸运遇到了一对年轻的小夫妻店,老板娘还很卡哇伊 :)看我是骑行的人,略显激动的在我身旁蹦跶很久,还冲了杯咖啡给我。2012年3月31日 辽中旅店的隔音不是很好,早上起来的很晚了,也是骑够了,东北,这季风我就不说没风才奇怪。2012年4月1日 愚人 锦州又遇锦州,古人已不在。今天的吃饭的地方是最让我崩溃了刚进城就找了个吃饭的地儿,向日葵视频色板APP官网员问我吃什么?我示意了一下别人手中的菜单。她说等下,哦,你吃什么?我:给我菜单。她:你吃什么?

回忆的开始 从狼C线和乌孙古道出来也有些日子了,每天都在翻看一路的相片,队友们的相片也在陆续传来。这次走狼C一路上上遇见了雨,雪,雾,大风更是常客,看着照片中我和朋友们那一张张皲裂的脸,都会不由自主地想起路上的一幕幕。天气多变,难度也相应增加了,本来计划狼C7天走出,最后走了8天加2小时。老天爷上调了难度,但却给了我们最好的回报:风景绝美。狼C线前后翻越5座雪达坂,每次精疲力尽登顶后极目远眺都能感觉到天不负我。无数的雪山在风起云涌中格外雄伟壮丽。 慢慢整理一下资料,陆续发布,给自己留点记忆,也给朋友们留点资料。8264上狼C的攻略很多了,我就不多献丑了。这次打算通过大量的照片来描述狼C的雄伟壮丽,狼C的美。不逊于任何一条线路的大美狼C. 从现在开始。。。。。。。。。。。。插入:感谢大家支持,俺就多花点时间,480楼开始改用长边2500像素的PP,看上去貌似要有气势很多,不说好不好看,至少大了很多。大片我把整个帖子的主要文字整理了一下,免得各位看的辛苦。 一,初入白杨沟 人马在乌市集合完毕,总计11好汉加一猛女,12员大将。队员是:管子乡村四月臭猫老李无极六戒老解大漠幻想真情一牛 透心凉(俺) 乌市,一大早我还没起床,牛哥就跑出去侦查了一路,回来后很肯定地告诉我:“去火车站旁边的八一车站坐车,我刚去了一趟,了解清楚了。” 佩服。。。。。。要知道来回要折腾一小时,老牛还真是勤快人啊。 12人整装集合出发八一车站,10:50坐车出发,12点20到达呼图壁车站,12点30到达狼塔户外。第一次看见大自在老哥,大自在很热情,好人啊。之前向日葵色板官方没有联系车,也没和大自在联系,临时找车很麻烦。老哥热心地到处打电话,帮向日葵色板官方联系了车辆,帮了大忙啊。另外说一句,从狼塔户外采买的高山气罐非常强大,一人带两个,出山之前向日葵色板官方还剩了一堆。 找好车辆,在旁边吃了一个超爽的手抓饭,1:50开拔进山。4点50到达出发点大油罐,上包,照集体照,出发。狼C之路开始了。 两小时之后到达一个台地,绝对五星级营地,真情一看,打死不走了,感觉要不让他扎营,估计今天晚上俺就别想好好吃饭了,没办法,就地扎营。吃饱喝足,生了堆篝火,兄弟们坐在一起天南地北开始吹牛,感觉像一家人。 二 穿行白杨沟 今天很不幸,湿身了,登山鞋全湿了,在海拔3000米以上的营地这可是大麻烦,明天要过白杨沟达坂,内心有点郁闷。。。。。。 今天的预计营地是白杨沟达坂下的小冰湖,走到跟前,发现雪线向下延伸了很多,小冰湖营地全是雪。只好在离小冰湖2公里左右的一处台地扎营了。 今天算是真正见识了大美天山的绚丽风光。笔直的云杉无论独立还是成林,在金色晨光的照耀下都是那样独特的美丽风景。宽阔的河谷,连绵的高山草甸,起伏的雪山,一切都是那样为之赞叹,为之倾倒。虽然出了点小插曲,但总的看来还是让人相当愉悦的旅程。 今天早上9点20出发,中午休息晒太阳一小时,晚上17点20扎营。营地很冷,吃饱喝足进帐休息,我在外帐用炉头烤鞋子,折腾了一个多小时,基本烤干 。 明天计划8点30出发,冲击白杨沟达坂,据今天碰见的牧民说:雪深20公分以上。。。。。。。。。。。。 三 翻越白杨沟达坂 早上出发,1小时多后到达小冰湖,开始冲锋达坂。 我发现:被忽悠了,雪深及膝,马道被盖住。只能利用GPS和地图来判断了,找好线路,啥也不说,埋头走吧。 边走边观赏风景,上了第一个台地,眼前忽然开阔,大美。于是休息,众人开始作秀照相。看到大家都活蹦乱跳,我突发奇想,对一众强人说:站成一排,摆POSS。于是同学们开始站成一排,又蹦又跳,我一边偷笑一边顺手卡卡。连续的POSS后,看见一个个面红耳赤即将高反的众人,我说道:“很好,很不错。”内心狂笑中,哈哈哈哈。 走走停停,连续上攻了5小时到顶。很累,很疲倦。 不过风景确实对得起付出的辛苦,天公作美,天气极好。登顶远眺河源峰的一刻,疲劳随风而去,俺又活力充沛了。 今天8点50营地出发,10点半左右开始冲击达坂,下午3点20登顶,3点50下撤。由于体能消耗的问,下撤很慢。估计天黑前无法到达河滩营地了。于是在马鞍营地前行40分钟左右的一个临时营地扎营。 洗刷刷,吃点面条,进帐睡觉恢复体力。 四 反复涉水 8点50从营地出发,全天涉水,本来计划过栈道到三角洲营地。由于今天水流很大,多次过河消耗体能很多。加之真情他们由于老虎口有小塌方走了回头路,耽误了一个多小时。下午6点多才到栈道口附近,考虑到安全问,决定今天放弃走栈道,找地扎营。今天比计划的行程慢了2小时。晚上生起一堆篝火,烤了半天总算驱走了身上的湿气和寒气。和一众兄弟一边吃肉一边喝着小酒,感觉很滋润。整了大概四两,感觉身上暖洋洋得很是舒服,哼着小曲进帐睡觉。所哼曲目:鸿雁。 五走过空中栈道 今天的计划是穿过空中栈道,翻越库达坂,一大早起来洗刷刷,吃饱喝足,继续走路。 走啊走啊,走上了空中栈道,风景不错,就是不大敢看,只敢看路,不小心滑了一跤,我趴那动都不敢动,心里只念叨:诸天神佛,饶我一次吧,下次走路俺不唱歌还不成吗。整了几分钟才重新站好,稳住重心。再过了几分钟,又开始哼着小曲走路,不过确实不好走,很多地方都是在斜坡上被人或者山羊踩出的一脚宽的痕迹(个人觉得很多地方不能定义为路),下面就是悬崖。相片照的很少,俺怕相机牺牲,更怕自己牺牲。 提心吊胆两小时,算是走完了空中栈道。前方就是原计划昨天的营地:三角洲营地。 三角洲附近的山坡上有很多五颜六色的红果果树(由于树上结红色果很多,我们就顺口这样称呼了),很漂亮,向日葵色板官方一路走去,边看边照,走了良久,突然有兄弟反应过来。不对,上库达坂沟口就在三角洲旁边,没这么远。于是方才从美景中清醒过来,回头。找到了沟口,志性小树。老天开眼,下起了大雨,啥也别说,扎营吧,雨中上达坂可不好玩。于是有了我狼C的第一个午觉,睡的相当愉快,心里不由念叨:想走就走,想停就停,这才叫旅行,这才叫徒步,这才叫享受,连老天爷都照顾我们。 今天很轻松,全天才走了三小时,睡完午觉起来喝喝下午茶,到处拍拍照,尽享旅行乐趣。 六翻越库达坂 一大早起来,抬头看天,蓝天白云,绝对好天气。今天的行程是翻越库达坂,沿呼图壁河谷上行至牧民营。 库达坂在去年的同期是无雪的,但今天上升时发现最后的地方雪深及膝,大部分到脚踝处。好在上午风不大,疯狂上冲。我由于没带墨镜,走雪地眼睛会很难受,所以基本是眯着眼睛载头猛走。4小时到顶,稍作休整,开始了漫长的下降。 下山的路有几段是由拳头大的碎石组成的滑石地段。采用重心靠后,脚跟先落地的原则,开始冲锋。半溜半跑地迅速下降,让人很有一种坐电梯的感觉,相当爽。唯一需要注意的是要掌握好平衡,不然就变成连滚带爬地下降了。 中途碰见了几个赶着羊群的哈萨克牧民,老解开始看着羊群发呆,估计是饿了。我仿佛看见老解的头上出现了一个巨大的框。里面飘过一只只烤全羊。。。。。。。 下午3点左右,下到了呼图壁河边,一路逆流而上,趟河无数。丰富的秋之色彩随处可见。金黄,酒红,浅红,淡黄,美丽到极致。 一路走来一路看,晚上7点多,走到了牧民营旁的计划营地,安营扎寨。 晚上,星空明亮,起来嘘嘘,发现风很大,巨冷,飞速完工后进帐,缩入睡袋。在牛哥悠扬的鼾声中,安然入睡。 七翻越蒙达坂,喀达坂 又是一个早晨,天气不太好,很重的云雾,看来不是个好天气。今天的行程是翻越蒙达坂和喀达坂,然后下到谷底,走到两河口的牧民营地。 事实证明天气确实很糟,翻越蒙达坂的时候下起了大雪,大风则是陪伴向日葵色板官方全天。蒙达坂积雪基本在膝盖到大腿的未知,步步维艰。雪很厚,看不见一点前人走过的痕迹,经过反复探路,向日葵色板官方最后从蒙达坂冰舌直切而上的时候,感觉那叫一个遥远,风雪中又看不清前方,唯一能做的就是傻走。 冲上蒙达坂,横切三小时,小幅度地下降上升之后就到达喀达坂。 喀达坂的积雪到小腿,还算好。走过喀达坂的时候,有段时间大风吹出了一块蓝天,当时的风景格外壮丽。众兄弟抢着POSS拍照。由于大漠要拍裸照,是最后一个。当这哥们三两下拔下自己的衣服后,估计是不被老天爷欣赏,一阵雾气吹来,结果照片拍下来一个强壮的裸男和一个玛尼堆。 今天出了一个笑话:横切去喀达坂的时候,幻想同志本来在我前面,我一路狂追,始终不见身影,快上喀达坂的时候突然看见在海拔下降80-100米处,看见一个小人在移动,很是惊诧,再一看,是幻想,倒,向日葵色板官方是横切,这哥们怎么跑下去了。后来聊天才知道:这哥们等高线设置80米一根,以为20米一根,跟着GPS轨迹傻走,看上去走的路线是重叠的,其实差之毫厘谬以千里。我在想:要是这哥们整了张5000比1的图看,会不会直切到西藏去了 lol 过了喀达坂,为了尽早赶到营地,大家都在快速前行。我一个人在后面边走边拍照,磨磨蹭蹭一直到9点多才最后抵达营地。不过一路拍了不少照片,也算值得了 。 八 行走在高原牧场 早晨起来,很冷,但天气很好,温度表显示的室外温度-8.1,估计夜晚的温度在-10往下,水袋和套锅里面全是冰。 狼C最艰难的行程已经结束了,剩下两天的路程很好走。今天的行程基本是在高原牧场欣赏风景。涉水一次,过一个小达坂,就到金矿,然后就是一路顺着峡谷欣赏草场了。 河水是从金矿方向留出来的,很浑浊,和泥汤一样。换鞋趟过去,剩下的就全是干路了。行走在高山牧场的台地上,偶尔会走过河滩。金黄的草场绵延无边,让人心旷神怡。天气很好,一整天都是大太阳,我跨着愉快的小步子,边走边欣赏风景,旅途中还小睡了半个小时,晚上6点到达哈尔哈特达坂脚下的牧民房。两间房,一间睡六个,大家都睡大通铺。 房子周围有很多牛粪,真情开始计划用牛粪生火,结果发现在没有炉子导走烟的情况下,那就是杀人。看着一双双熏得通红的眼睛,最后还是决定继续用先进武器气炉生火做饭。 晚餐:土豆烧大肉,莴笋干菜汤,那叫一个腐败。今夜有房睡,明天能出山了。想着都开心。吃饱后,钻出帐篷随手拍了两张雪山月色。 回到铺上,身心都很满足的安然睡去。 九走出狼C线,踏上新旅程 清早起床,太阳还没爬上山头,远处的雪山显得格外宁静。过了一会太阳出来了,照耀山巅,一道金色铺满了山脊。 吃完早饭,9点了,阳光明媚,大家在小木屋附近合影留念。今天冲过哈达坂顺着机耕路一路向下,预计下午4点前就可以到达交叉路口附近的桥,那就是向日葵色板官方这次徒步的终点,可以拦车了。想着今天可以重回人间,大家心情都很好,拍张集体照作为见证。合照完毕,继续踏上向日葵色板官方在狼C线最后的行程飞速冲上了哈达坂,也是狼C线路中的最后一个达坂。稍作休整,欣赏风景,可以看见山下的机耕路蜿蜒通向峡谷外,向日葵色板官方马上就要出去了,心情有一点激动,也有点失落。怀着激动的心情,150M左右的高差,10分钟就从碎石坡冲下去了。下到机耕路,众人到齐,再次合影,也是向日葵色板官方穿越狼C的最后一次合影,剩下的只是傻走了,穿越基本算是结束了。快到交叉口处,看见地质队的营地,看见了一台皮卡。回到人间。地质队养了两条狗,一黑一白,冲着向日葵色板官方乱叫。狗很不懂礼貌,地质队的诸位师傅却是好人。地质队的一位师傅看见向日葵色板官方这群野人,似乎很清楚向日葵色板官方需要什么,直接洗了一盆苹果端了出来,我刚拿出相机照了张相片,苹果就只剩下一个了。 休整片刻后,地质队的一位大哥用那台白色的小皮卡分三次把向日葵色板官方送到了218国道。一路飞驰,极目望去,连绵雪山,蓝天白云。8天半的行程结束了。一路上兄弟们同甘共苦,爬山涉水,见证了狼C的大美。我和臭猫接下来的行程是去伊宁休整,27号出发去乌孙。其他的兄弟的安排是包车回乌市。大家要分开了,带着不舍,带着对下一次相聚的期盼,我和臭猫走上218国道,踏上了下一段旅程。。。。。。。。。 简单列一下行程: 16号:乌市出发,12点30到达狼塔户外。1:50包车进山(感谢大自在老哥的热心帮助),5点到达出发点大油罐,两小时到达一个台地,五星级营地。考虑到第二天运动量不大,就地扎营。 17号:目小冰湖营地。到后发现由于降雪,雪线下移很多,只好在小冰湖前约2公里的一处台地扎营了。 18号:翻越白杨沟达坂,雪深及膝。体能消耗大,7点到达马鞍营地,前行40分钟左右,在谷底旁的一块空地扎营。 19号:全天涉水,(老虎嘴部分再次出现局部塌方不能通行),下午6点到达栈道口附近,由于担心失温影响体力,考虑到安全,决定扎营,比计划行程晚了两个小时。 20号:走完空中栈道,在库达坂沟口遇见大雨,今日行程早早结束,下午睡觉,那叫一个愉悦。21号:翻越库达坂,沿着河谷逆行到达牧民营地。库达坂雪深达到小腿中部。22号:风雪交加中翻越蒙达坂(雪深膝-大腿),俺的小脸算彻底毁了。翻第二座达坂时候天气不错(雪深小腿-膝盖),起了一阵大雾。今日走到计划的牧民营地。全天12小时,累惨了。晚上很冷,零下10度。装水的全结冰。23号:没选择走河谷,趟河一次后,翻越一个小达坂到达机耕路,顺路至金矿,沿峡谷向哈达坂前进,一路看景,晚6点至两座牧民房,扎营,一间六个,腐败吃饭,很爽地睡觉。24号:斗志昂扬地冲过哈达坂(雪深小腿-膝盖),高速下降200米,上机耕路,下午4点到达地质队营地,重回人间。队员由左至右: 管子 乡村四月臭猫老李无极 六戒 老解大漠幻想 真情一牛 透心凉 初见白杨沟,开始磨蹄,计划了一年的狼C总算踏出了第一步,怀着哈皮的心情和兄弟们踏上了狼C之路 牛哥的背影和他的人一样沉稳(备注:一牛为本队最年长队员,51)一个小下坡,狼C之路的上下坡正式开始路边上的一堆残骸 第一座木桥 浮土路,有点滑。大漠的第一次爬行,还是牛哥走的稳啊云杉,仿佛一把把出鞘之剑指向苍天第一天的五星级营地烤火吹牛,加强团队感情,顺便把新装备燎几个洞来证明资历收营,又要出发了哼着小曲,在阳光中前行缕缕阳光拂过,俺的小宇宙开始沸腾,浑身充满力量自拍一张二牛在自由地吃草,问是咋在路上吃,不进牧场去吃,疑惑高原牧场枯败的灌木在秋日的晨光中也能让人感到那一丝不屈和生机阳光带来了生机,带来了美远处的草料堆六戒和管子,这时候还能算是小白脸([]
序六年前。我刚开始练习瑜伽,瑜伽馆的一位老师,每年都会去印度呆上一段时间,学习瑜伽。那一次,他准备带学生一同前往。我虽心向往之,但他计划的时间,我完全没有假期,只好作罢。我记得他对大家说,在印度不能乱吃东西,否则很容易拉肚子。一年前。深夜,妹夫从印度打来电话,说妹妹因染上登革热,高烧不退,住进了医院,白细胞和血小板不断减少,医生说,如果血小板继续减少,就需要输血,建议由直系亲属输血。妹妹已是第二次去印度,因妹夫被成都的公司外派到德里,负责印度市场的销售,所以这两年的十一,她都会去印度探望他。前年呆了一月,她安然无恙。怎么这一次,只是因为被蚊子叮咬,就染上了登革热?而事实上,每年9、10月份,都是印度中北部地区登革热高发期,卫生条件的不完善便是重要原因。当时,我对蟋蟀头说,没想到,我会因这种原因去印度。赶紧上网查询如何办理印度证。妹夫说,再等一晚,看这晚我妹的身体状况再作决定。所幸,那一晚妹妹的相关指数开始出现好转,并于三天后顺利出院。但,“明年向日葵色板官方去印度吧”,就这样提上了议程。在S姐的建议下,向日葵色板官方提前大半年就订好了去印度的往返机票。我不是喜欢做功略的人,但想去的地方太多,时间却太少,提前做好计划,便能让旅行变得从容点。尤其是,印度软件业发达,提前四个月便能在网上订火车票,电子票打印出来,就可直接使用,方便程度远甚于中国铁路;印度的许多旅馆都有自己的网站,可网上在线订房,也可通过发邮件的方式预订。当然,在订票订房的过程中,也发生过种种问,种种纠结,和阿三们不断通过邮件进行沟通。但渐渐,我发现这也很有趣,我的印度之行,似乎提前几个月便已开始。我关心行程,蟋蟀头却只关心安全。毕竟,这是一个不可思议的国度。不可思议,并不是我说的,这可是印度旅游局的全球宣传口号:Incredible India不可思议的印度。今年7月30日和31日,接连发生在印度北部的两次大停电事故,使得印度半个国家瘫痪,6亿多人的日常生活受到影响,占印度总人口的一半左右。美联社称:“有史以来最大的停电事故已由印度创造!”同样是7月下旬,印度东北部阿萨姆邦土著与穆斯林移民爆发种族冲突,并酿成大规模流血事件。8月25日,又发生两起新的攻击,使得该邦因骚乱死亡人数累计接近90人,数千人流离失所。因太多人逃离,一度造成该地区的铁路中枢系统瘫痪。所以,蟋蟀头的担心,并非毫无道理。我和他解释,向日葵色板官方去的虽然是印度北部,但主要是在拉贾斯坦邦,和那个发生冲突的地区没有一点关系。至于停电嘛,好吧,我也不知道到时是否会发生,但,如果发生的时候,向日葵色板官方可以身在其中,我觉得这也非常有劲。的确,对于爱冒险的我来说,印度正因为种种不可思议,才充满无限魅力。在游记开始之前,让向日葵色板官方先来唱颂一次OM,shanti shanti shantihi (欧姆,香缇 香缇 香缇 嘿)这是向日葵色板官方每次瑜伽课开始和结束时,都会唱颂的一句话。OM,被瑜伽认为是最古老最神圣的梵音,是万物源头的声音,是内在的声音。而香缇,则意为平和、和谐。这也是我在瓦拉纳西的恒河河祭时听到的唱颂声,在日落时的斋浦尔、焦特浦尔城市上方回响的晚祷声。。。唱颂OM的力量,可为你打开心扉,将内心做一次清理。因为我希望你能暂时抛开关于印度的种种成见与偏见,跟随我的游记来一次印度之旅。以平和的心态,去看待印度的好与不好。毕竟,正因这些神奇,成就了这个不可思议的国度。一、抵达...........................................................P5二、捡了一对夫妇逛红堡.....................................P8三、火车旅行....................................................

火车篇作为铁轨上的国度,印度是亚洲最早拥有铁路系统的国家,至今已有150多年的铁路历史。铁路总长63200多公里,亚洲第二、世界第三。到印度旅行,不能不坐火车,因为它是最便捷的交通工具。而且,在这个不靠谱的国家,尽管火车晚点现象严重,但还是要比乘飞机靠谱许多。 1、购票网站www.cleartrip.com 非常好用的购票网站,不仅可以订火车票,也可订机票及住宿。 提前四个月就可订票。座位等级分为:AC First Class(1A)/AC2 Tier/ AC3 Tier/AC Chair Car(CC)/Sleeper(SL)/Second sitting(2s)带AC的都是空调车厢,AC1是软卧,分隔成一间间,有房门;AC2与AC3都是空调硬卧,区别在于AC2是两层卧铺,AC3是三层卧铺。 印度有严格的等级制,体现在火车上就是,非该等级的乘客不得随意进入。一般乘坐AC的都是社会阶层比较高的印度人,素质相对较高,车厢比较干净整洁。而乘坐二等座的则是社会地位较低的印度人,车厢内脏乱差,甚至连窗户也没。 印度火车票不贵,与中国相比,便宜很多。天气热的时候去印度,建议还是选空调车厢吧,对自己好一点,没啥不对。当然,如果以体验为名,想和当地印度人挤二等车厢,那你得作好万全的心理准备。但如果是单身女性上路,严重不建议。 2、cleartrip今年的订票新规,账号必须与印度铁路局IRCTC的账号相关联,但IRCTC的账号又必须用印度当地的手机号注册并激活。此新规一度让准备去印度的同学不知所措,但很快便有同学找到相应解决办法,并通过一次次实践加以完善。前人栽树,后人乘凉,详细的账号注册功略请参考此帖:《完全图解印度火车账号注册成功》https//bbs.qyer.com/viewthread.php?tid=635989&extra=page%3D1 3、订火车票是实名制,详细到还需写明性别与年龄。用VISA或者MasterCard的信用卡进行网上支付。订票成功后,打印出来,便可直接使用。火车上列车员会查一次票,出示打印出来的电子票即可。AC First ClassAC2AC3 住宿篇大多时候,都是在火车上睡一宿,第二天早晨到。再加上乘火车可以预先知道出发与到达的时间,所以时间相对比较确定,建议提前预定旅馆,再要求旅馆提供接站向日葵视频色板APP官网,既可避免在火车站与tutu司机砍价,在路上被tutu司机忽悠,还可节省车费(向日葵色板官方的六段火车,全是免费接站)以及时间。也许你会问,如果少了这些,是不是少了很多体验?当然不会,因为除了长途坐火车,在一个城市里的交通主要还是tutu,你被他们忽悠以及反忽悠的机会多了去了。一、推荐预定住宿的网站:1、www.booking.com,网页显示可选择中文,而且每个旅馆都有世界各地游客的点评,非常简单好用。2、www.cleartrip.com,印度本地的网站,从网站界面上说,和booking.com一样好用,但全英文的页面,对于中国人来说,肯定不如全中文页面来得清楚。而且有时同一个旅店,在cleartrip上订需预先付费,但booking就不需要,而且在入住日期前几天,还可无条件取消预订。所以此次行程,如果没有旅店的官方网站,我就在booking.com上预定。二、推荐查看旅店评价的网站:www.tripadsvisor.in中文版即 到到网此网站只能查询,不能预订,所以从某个角度来说,上面的点评比较中肯。即使是别人游记中推荐的旅馆,建议你还是来此网站上看看大家对该旅馆的评价。虽然个人感受都比较主观,也许一只老鼠就可毁掉你对这家旅馆的所有好印象,也可能会因一个小花园而对它赞不绝口。尽管如此,综合大多数人的点评,你还是可以有个比较全面的了解,以更好做出你的选择。所以,向日葵色板官方此次行程订的七家旅馆,除了最后一家稍微有点不值,其余都非常好。为了方便大家参考,我把预订的七家旅馆逐一作个点评。但需要提醒的是,房间不同、时间不同,房价差异会很大。每年10月下旬至3月,印度较为凉爽,比较适合旅行,房价会比夏季价格偏贵。 1、德里——Hotel Hari Piorko价格: Rs.1650+10%= Rs.1815/晚 住一晚 从机场接机Rs.700预订方式:www.book.com预订点评:位置非常好,位于背包客云集的帕哈甘吉地区,也就是鼎鼎大名的Main Bazaar。距离新德里火车站500米,距离康诺特广场1公里。我通过邮件,预订了酒店的接机向日葵视频色板APP官网,对方在邮件里告诉我,到酒店前台付出租车的费用。可到了酒店,工作人员却出尔反尔,明明说好是Rs.700,却要收Rs.800,当然,最后也只收了Rs.700。另外,向日葵色板官方到酒店住下时已是凌晨三点,淋浴只有冷水,没有热水。关于淋浴,我曾特地在邮件里和酒店确认过,因为在tripadsvisor上有人点评说,酒店晚上没有热水淋浴。酒店在邮件里保证,一定有热水淋浴的,请我放心。说得那么肯定,结果还是没热水。不过,到了早晨,热水淋浴倒是蛮好的。除了那两点,该酒店各方面都还不错,在tripadsvisor上的口碑很好,也是cleartrip推荐的酒店之一。推荐指数:★★★☆☆其余酒店参考:Ginger Hotel(Ginger New Delhi):距离新德里火车站200米,连锁酒店,类似如家。坐机场快线到火车站,出来后对面就是。https//www.gingerhotels.com/HotelSearchResults/Default.aspx本打算预订这家酒店,但提前几个月,网站就显示新德里店房间全满。据说这只是酒店的营销策略而已,因为新德里店位置较好,大家往往都订这家店,而导致在德里的另一连锁店没有生意,所以一般只会提前一点时间开放预订。我觉得酒店这种想法很奇怪,向日葵色板官方并不会因为你这家店满了,就选择你的另一家店,我完全可以选择相同地段的其他店。印度人的思维模式有时真的很奇怪。 2、瓦拉纳西——Scindhia Guest House价格:Rs.1800 + 12.42% tax = Rs.2025/晚(含早餐)有阳台,有空调,有冰箱 住两晚预订方式:酒店网站https//www.scindhiaguesthouse.com/index.html 在线预订Email:scindhiaguesthouse@yahoo.com点评:酒店就在恒河边,每个房间都面向恒河。因为在焚尸台Scindhia Ghat旁边,所以酒店的名字是Scindhia Guest House。酒店非常干净,地板擦得很亮,和外面的环境相比宛如两个世界。酒店口碑极好,最好提前预订,但很多人都抱怨发了邮件去订房,却没有任何回音,只好放弃。建议直接在酒店网页上在线预订。我当时在网上在线填写预订表格并提交,十七天后,酒店发来邮件,确认我的预订。虽然我对这家酒店强烈推荐,但我写到这里,刚看了一下网站,相同的房间,房价已涨至Rs.3373,房价有效期从2012-10-1至2013-3-31。推荐指数:★★★★★其余酒店参考:Alka Hotel, www.hotelalkavns.com因座落在恒河边,被好些网友称为瓦拉纳西的首选。我发邮件询价,然后看tripadsvisor上对该酒店的最新评价都不太好,说房间旧,不干净,向日葵视频色板APP官网也不好。酒店回我邮件告诉价格,尽管房价比Scindhia Guest House便宜许多,我还是没有选择这家。房间外的阳台相连向日葵色板官方的房间,有阳台,有空调,有冰箱从阳台上看到的恒河风景 3、阿格拉——Sai Home Stay Bed & Breakfast价格:Rs.1550/晚(含早餐)住一晚预订方式:www.book.com预订酒店Email:saihomestay@yahoo.com点评:选中这家,只能说是缘分,看tripadsvisor上的评价,很多人认为是在印度住过的最好的一家酒店,便让我立即决定选择它。尽管从旅馆的名字来看,似乎只是一家小得不能再小的家庭旅馆。旅馆真的不大,只有几个房间,但房间却挺大,装修很新,很干净。有一个小花园,小得只能放下一张桌子,但在那里吃早餐,却是非常温馨。老板很亲切,很有气质,英语说得非常好,一看就属于印度的中上层人士。他家的菜也做得非常好吃。尤其是餐具,精致漂亮,感觉他是一个很会生活的人。而且这家还是向日葵色板官方此行中最便宜的一家旅馆!推荐指数:★★★★★向日葵色板官方的房间小花园 4、斋普尔——The Umaid bhawan heritage Hotel价格:Rs. 2600/晚(含早餐)有空调,有冰箱 住两晚预订方式:酒店网站https//www.umaidbhawan.com/index.htm 在线预订,需输入信用卡信息作为预定担保,如果在预订时间没有入住该酒店,会被扣掉相应房费。点评:这是向日葵色板官方行程中房价第二贵的一家酒店,因火车晚上 22:20才到斋浦尔,加上晚点因素,估计向日葵色板官方到酒店都快24点了,但也要算一晚的房费,定这么贵的房是否有必要?但酒店网页上的照片实在太漂亮了,美轮美奂的,让我完全失去抵抗力。等向日葵色板官方入住后,我有多庆幸选择了这家酒店!从进房间的一刻开始,我就给房间的每个角落拍照;第二天起床吃早餐,也是从门外的露台茶几,拍到餐厅;晚上又继续拍阳台上的露天餐厅与歌舞表演。拉贾斯坦在建筑和绘画上的艺术风格,在这家酒店得以淋漓尽致地呈现,精致的壁画、装饰,屋顶、屋角细致描绘的花纹,无不透着浓浓的异域气息。免费供应的早餐,并非简单的土司、蛋卷,而是丰盛的自助餐,味道还非常赞。晚餐是在露台上的餐厅,不仅有现场歌舞表演,还有现烤的羊肉,食物味道不错,我俩都爱上了那里一道用茄子做的菜肴。而且,我在这里喝到了来印度后的第一瓶啤酒。要知道,印度的很多餐厅都不供应啤酒的,因为大多数人不吃荤不喝酒不抽烟。推荐指数:★★★★★其余酒店参考:Hotel Pearl Palace, https//hotelpearlpalace.com/LP推荐,网上口碑很好。但我提前四个月预订定,也没订到,酒店回我邮件,说已客满。我很庆幸这家挤满驴友的酒店客满,有时,我比较喜欢能找一些与众不同,但又很有特色的旅馆。 5、乌代浦尔——Hibiscus Guest House 价格:Rs.2000/晚 住两晚预订方式:www.hibiscusinudaipur.com/index.html 发邮件预订酒店Email:hibiscus-udaipur@hotmail.com点评:这家酒店由tripadvisor推荐,网友评价排名第六。距离那家鼎鼎大名的dreamheaven guest house很近,走路5分钟就到。之所以没有选择据说位置超赞的dreamheaven,是因为那家被 LP推荐的酒店,历史实在太长,完全可以想像酒店陈设的老旧。在tripadsvisor上果然看到很多这样的评价,让我毅然决定选择一个新旅馆。这家酒店距离湖边仅5分钟,有个雅致的小花园,非常安静。住了整整两天,除了我俩,没看到一个住客,以致于蟋蟀头在第一天就有想换酒店的冲动。我却很喜欢这样的静谧。没住dreamheaven,但可以去那里吃饭啊,据说那里的食物味道很好。但去了dreamheaven后,我非常庆幸自己的选择,dreamheaven实在太老旧了,窄小漆黑的过道,让我感觉随时都有老鼠在这里串来串去。第二天去dreamheaven旁边的一家高级酒店Karohi Haveli上厕所,顺便参观一圈后,更是让我对自己的选择欣喜。Karohi Haveli几层楼高,是家名副其实的酒店,但个人感觉酒店大而冰冷,没有小旅馆那种温暖气息。房间也没有比Hibiscus 更好。Karohi Haveli是一个网友游记中的强烈推荐,她是因为老鼠乱串,房间环境不好,从dreamheaven中逃出来的,于是把Karohi Haveli描绘得如天堂般。我很早就写了邮件想要预订这家旅馆,在邮件中我写了check in的时间,向酒店询价,酒店回我邮件,告诉了我几种房间的房价。价格很高,我又是一轮邮件和他砍价,最后他同意给我一个折扣价,面朝湖的Super DeLUXE ,Rs.3000/晚。尽管房费依然偏贵,但我想,既然在印度最浪漫的城市,住贵一点的酒店无妨。于是马上回邮件,告诉他我就定这间了,请他确认我的预订。没想到,酒店回我,这个价格只在4月-9月有效,不适用于我预订的10月。真是晕倒,我在第一封询价的邮件里就写得很清楚了,我抵达的时间是10月7日!价格不适用于10月,他给我报价干嘛?还这么折腾要了一个折扣价。再问他,那10月的价格何时出来?他回答说不知道。于是,我彻底放弃这家酒店。印度人有时教条得真是不可理喻。推荐指数:★★★★★其他酒店参考:1、dreamheaven

点评:酒店位置非常好,屋顶餐厅和阳台上都可以看到梅兰加尔古堡,感觉古堡近在咫尺。酒店老板热情得让你难以招架,亲自领我们进房间,介绍周围景点,赠送地图。他希望蟋蟀头帮他拍点照片放在他的酒店网页上,但他的举动又让向日葵色板官方有点不快。向日葵色板官方临走时,他竟要求我们给他的员工付小费,向日葵色板官方虽没有拒绝,但感觉奇怪。淋浴不好。于我而言,一旦淋浴不好,对该酒店的印象就会大打折扣。如果楼顶阳台上的煤气罐没开,就没有热水。而酒店并不会24小时打开煤气罐,晚上如果没有特别提醒,肯定会关掉。但这一点,向日葵色板官方最初并不知晓,老板领向日葵色板官方进房间时,讲了很多,却没讲这点。只说打开淋浴后几分钟就会有热水。晚上我洗澡时,等了十多分钟,也仅一点温水。等蟋蟀头去洗澡时,已经纯粹是冷水。因夜已深,我不太想再去叫醒酒店人员。但第二天早上,淋浴依然是冷水,出去问老板,他面带笑容地告诉我说,“洗澡前和我们说一下就行了!”无语。我洗澡前还要和你说吗?推荐指数:★★★☆☆向日葵色板官方的房间酒店的露台餐厅房间的阳台 7、杰伊瑟尔梅尔Jaisalmer——Hotel Jeet Villa 价格:Rs.2950+5.15%=3102/晚 住一晚预订方式:www.book.com预订酒店网址:https//www.hoteljeetvilla.com/tariff.htm Email:hoteljeetvilla@hotmail.com 点评:这是向日葵色板官方此行所住的七家酒店中,最贵的一家,但也是最令人失望的一家。可能正应了那句话,期望越大,失望越大。网上介绍,此家酒店距离杰伊瑟尔梅尔古堡只有500米远,精致的哈维利,只有七个房间,每个房间都不一样。哈维利haveli,是拉贾斯坦的传统民居,由石头筑成,装饰华丽,以石雕匠的精工细作为特色。想像中,住在金色的沙漠之城,住在具有异域风情的哈维利里,感觉一点非常美好。此家酒店的确是以石头筑成,有石头雕成的假窗,在桔黄色的灯光映衬下,拍出来的照片也挺美,但仅此而已。房间不大,没有桌子或茶几让蟋蟀头摆弄他的笔记本,让每天都要导照片看照片的他恼火不已。淋浴也不好。如果要洗澡,只能白天,或者晚上22点前。22点后就只有冷水。房间由石头砌成,隔音效果却不好。清晨向日葵色板官方还未醒,工作人员在与我们相隔一个房间的洗手间洗拖帕的声音,真是声声清脆,声声入耳。推荐指数:★☆☆☆☆ 功略写完了。我提供的功略较为简单扼要,只有最基本的证与住行,并没有各种注意事项等细节。那些细节,我更愿意用游记的形式与你分享。我认为,功略应该成为你的拐仗,而非限制;要因为功略,使你的旅行更加从容,而不要因为功略,给自己设定太多条条框框。如果你有完全充足的时间,也许你可以完全无视功略,走到哪儿算哪儿。也许处处有惊喜,但也有可能惊喜变成惊吓。不管怎样,用享受的心情开始旅行吧。游记,正式开始。。。 一、抵达于我而言,很少有提前大半年做旅行计划这件事。印度,是第一次。出发那天是晚上2105,白天上班,我竟开始拉肚子。暗自嘲弄自己,不至于吧,印度还没到了!但庆幸的是,在印度的17天,我没有拉过一次肚子。从上海直飞德里,全程六小时。晚上抵达时,北京时间凌晨340,但印度时间却是 0110。是的,印度与中国有2.5个小时的时差。来到印度的这一刻,时间便又回流了2个半小时。刚走进机场大楼,就有一些同航班的同学驻足,对着这两幅俊男靓女的照片拍个不停。虽不好意思加入其中,但我还是在他们离去后,不能免俗地赶快按了一张。为什么不好意思?因为,这是厕所!先暂时抛开你想像中的脏乱差的印度吧,至少对于初来乍到的我们,呈现在向日葵色板官方眼前的英迪拉·甘地国际机场,干净、明亮、现代,甚至,透着一股禅的气息。在办理出关的地方,一面金色圆盘为底的装饰墙上,有11个手势各异的佛手印,唯一的相同之处是,掌心中都有一朵莲花。手印,是瑜伽修炼时手的姿式。瑜伽认为,手印象征着特殊的愿力,会带来身体与意念的力量。手印分为很多种,不同的手印,对身心有着不同的影响。比如,第一张照片中左数第二个,拇指与中指相连,是能量手印,意即将上天中的能量善加利用,是瑜伽中最常用的手印之一。而莲花,则是印度的国花,与佛教与印度教都有很深的渊源。蟋蟀头正在柜台,等候印度大叔审核证。拍这张照时,我还本能地在想:“这里能拍吗?”毕竟那时距离向日葵色板官方去朝鲜一个月,在朝鲜时,这也不让拍那也不让拍的阴影尚存。要知道,在平壤机场是不允许拍照的!但这里不是朝鲜,这是印度。印度虽贫穷,但却是民主国家。不要说拍机场,连拍军人都可以。 蟋蟀头去行李区域等候行李,为节约时间,我准备去找地方换点印度卢比。所有人的攻略都会提醒你,机场汇率不好,不要多换。不要多换,但也得换一点,不然出去的车费也付不了。距离行李区域不远,有个FoREIgn exchange,尽管有前辈功略提及,机场有四家Exchange Bureau,每家的汇率会稍有不同,但如此夜深,我懒得去做比较了,只想赶快离开机场,去旅馆好好睡一觉。于是径直去这家排队。正在排队,有几个中国人从另一个方向过来,去柜台上的电脑,查看了一下汇率,然后对同伴说:“这里的汇率比之前那家好。”一听这话,我心中暗笑,还真让我撞上了。换汇要护照,汇率USD1=Rs49.1。我换了100美元,拿到手只有Rs4870,不用说,少掉的Rs40就是手续费了。出发前就预订了旅馆,因为住在背包客云集的帕哈甘吉地区,担心像尼泊尔的泰美尔一样如迷宫般难寻,又是深更半夜,便同时预订了接机向日葵视频色板APP官网。等向日葵色板官方取了行李,换好钱出来,一个举着写有我名字的纸片的小伙子,已在大厅里等候。按前人的攻略,最好在机场办理一个airtel的手机卡,3G上网非常方便,而且打电话的费用也非常便宜。于是,和小伙子说明,我得先办一个airtel的手机卡。他往右边一指,“在那边。”右边?不对啊,攻略说出来后左走,就有airtel的柜台。“印度人说的话都不可信,”此时,对于初到印度的我来说,前人的攻略对我影响很深。我自顾自地向左边走去,那里的确有一个办理手机卡的柜台,但柜台上面赫然写着:A I R C E L。aircel 与 airtel,仅一个字母之差,怎么回事?我站在门口,仔细端详了半天。“airtel在那边!”这时,接站的小伙子又指着右边对我说。好吧,信他一次。跟着他往右边走,airtel的柜台果然在那儿。其实确切地说,如果眼神好,在出口处往右边一望,就可看到airtel的招牌。好吧,前人的攻略,有时还真的不可信,宁可信一次印度人。此时,正有三个中国人在airtel的柜台上办手机卡,柜台里的阿三正忙着用手机给其中一个男生拍照,另外两个女生等候中。我问阿三还要等多久?我急着走。阿三回我,很快就好。但看他不慌不忙的速度,我真觉得这“很快就好”根本就不可能。接站小伙子又说话了,“回旅馆去办吧,那里也有airtel,费用还比这里便宜。”这一次,我决定马上相信他。我和蟋蟀头跟在小伙子的后面,出了机场,向停车场走去。他没有帮向日葵色板官方拿行李,一个人自顾自地快步走在前面。“他怎么不帮向日葵色板官方拿包呢?”我问蟋蟀头,难道印度人的接站习惯就是,不帮客人拿包?英迪拉·甘地国际机场距离向日葵色板官方要去的帕哈甘吉Paharganj 地区,大约20公里左右。夜色中的德里,一片安静。同夜色一样安静的,还有这个开车的小伙子。不说印度人喜欢搭讪吗?他怎么这么安静?我心中暗自嘀咕。当然,在后面的十多天行程中,经历了印度人的各种搭讪后,我只能说,印度人的确非常喜欢说话,但也总有些人,不是那么喜欢说话。大约半小时后,出租车停在了向日葵色板官方预定的Hotel Hari Piorko。车停下来后,他转过头,向我要车费。车费,旅馆给我的邮件中,不是说明车费Rs.700在旅馆的前台付吗?我和他解释,旅馆的邮件中是这么说明,我也只能到前台去付款,请他和向日葵色板官方一起去前台拿钱。他又嘀嘀咕咕说了一大堆话,不过我一句也没听懂,大意应该还是希望我能直接把钱付给他吧。我问蟋蟀头的意见。他说,既然旅馆和你约定了,在前台付车费,就还是去前台付吧,否则,你现在付给他,旅馆向你要,怎么办?我觉得蟋蟀头说的有道理。于是,向日葵色板官方不管他继续啰嗦,下车拿了行李就走进了旅馆。一个白发白胡子白衫的老头坐在前台,正在给一位准备退房的老外办理手续。一本硕大的登记簿放在他的前面。后来发现,每个旅馆的登记簿都和这个一模一样,像是政府规定的专用旅馆登记簿。在等候老头给老外办退房手续时,我问小伙子,“旅馆付你多少钱接机?”他说,“Rs.550。” 啊,旅馆赚得挺多。看着他可怜巴巴的眼神,我真想马上把钱付给他。好不容易等老头办完退房手续,他向我要车费了,“Rs.800”。“什么?Rs.800?你邮件里不是写好Rs.700吗?“”那就Rs.750。“老头面不改色地回答。”NO。“我准备一点也不让步。不付给他Rs.550,我就很守信用了,他居然还向我要Rs.800 ?可惜我只打印了booking.com的预定单,没有打印我和他的邮件内容。于是,我把自己整理的攻略往他面前一放,指给他看我在他的酒店名称下注明的:”在前台付pick up Rs.700- extra.“ 其实这并非邮件,他居然扫了一眼后,二话不说,马上就认账了。从他信口开河到最后认账,老头脸上的表情始终没有丝毫改变。看来,他玩这一招是玩习惯了。能唬一个就唬一个。其实,在机场坐预付费的taxi,据说是Rs.400多。他报价后,我没还价,是因为想着深更半夜安排接机,挺辛苦的,也没差多少钱,也就算了。没想到他还玩这一招,真让我觉得后悔,真该砍下他的价才对。 check in后,一个小工帮向日葵色板官方提着行李,领我们到了楼上的房间。房间很大,也很干净。那个king size的大床,实际上是由两个单人床拼成。后来我发现,印度好多酒店的大床都是这样拼合而成。沙发、电视、空调,房间里倒是一应俱全。据说德里因为是首都的缘故,酒店的性价比都特别差。所以,在这样热门的地段,这样的房间,这样的房价的确不算贵。对了,当时的汇率 1印度卢比=0.1182人民币元。一般我和蟋蟀头想把价格换算成人民币以作比较时,喜欢直接除以10,比较简单易算。所以,这个房价,差不多就是在北京上海如家的价格。小工去帮向日葵色板官方买矿泉水和打火机。因为在印度,自来水是根本不能饮用的,除非你有印度人的肠胃。不一会儿,小工回来了,把东西递给向日葵色板官方后,和我算钱,“两瓶矿泉水Rs.33/瓶,打火机Rs.40,一共Rs.106。”“你不说打火机只要Rs.20吗?怎么变成Rs.40呢?”我问他。“Rs.20的打火机卖完了,这个Rs.40的打火机比较好看一点。”他对我解释道。好吧,就算他说的是真的吧。我可不想这么晚了,还为这点钱和他斤斤计较。我掏出Rs.150给他,“谢谢,不用找了。”小工告辞而去。准备洗澡,才发现淋浴根本就没有热水,只有冷水。想着我在邮件里和酒店确认深夜是否有热水淋浴,他在回信中可是斩钉截铁地说“Don't worry.” 看来,问了也是白问。印度人的话还真不能信!在机场时,我还因不相信接站小伙的话而自责,现在,我又再次确信,印度人的话的确不能相信。唉,洗个冷水脸睡吧。谁让这是印度呢?! 二、捡了一对夫妇逛红堡早上起床,淋浴终于有热水了,而且水还挺好。酒店的退房时间是中午12点,等向日葵色板官方起床收拾完毕,已差不多12点了。因下午5点过就要坐火车去瓦拉纳西,所以我们准备先下楼和前台说一下寄存行李的事。从电梯出来,还没走两步,就被一男一女两个中国人叫住,“你们是中国人啊!”一到国外,能遇到中国人,的确会多分亲切。原来这对夫妇来自广东,到德里已经四天了。但这四天哪儿也没去,就在酒店睡觉。还从广东带了一只煲来,给自己煲汤降火。因酒店房间不干净,他们便换到这间酒店,说是比之前那家酒店干净好多。女孩叫sofoia,一个自来熟的女孩,她告诉我说,他们在印度会呆二十天,却没准备功略,问是否可以借我的攻略看看。我把手中的攻略递给她,她翻翻后说道,“这么详细啊,借我copy一下吧。”得知他们也没吃饭,便约他们到楼上餐厅一起吃饭,顺便让他们copy攻略。中午时分,餐厅里一个客人也没。估计住店的人,这个时间都到外面去玩了吧!向日葵色板官方四人找了阳台上一个桌子坐下,他们让向日葵视频色板APP官网员帮忙去复印攻略,然后向日葵色板官方点餐说话聊天。在得知向日葵色板官方下午准备去红堡后,这对夫妇打算跟向日葵色板官方同行。于是,在印度的第一天,我们就多了一对旅伴。而且在后面的行程中,又不断遇到新的旅伴。一位修理人员,似乎对坐在餐厅中的向日葵色板官方四人孰视无睹,自顾自地开始用电钻在墙上钻洞。尖利的电钻声吵得向日葵色板官方讲话也听不清。去向餐厅向日葵视频色板APP官网人员提出抗议,居然一点效果也没,向日葵色板官方只得被迫坐到阳台上去用餐。一推开那扇通往阳台的门,一股热浪夹杂着各种嘈杂声扑面而来。深夜抵达德里时的宁静印象,瞬间瓦解。鸽子扑愣愣地在阳台上飞来飞去,反倒弄得向日葵色板官方不好靠近,生怕惊到它们。实际上,向日葵色板官方真是过虑了。在印度,没有动物会害怕人。 对于初来乍到的向日葵色板官方,哪里会嫌街上吵闹,只会感到新奇无比,趴在阳台的栏杆上四处张望。街上人车拥挤。汽车、出租车、牛车、TUTU车、人力三轮车、摩托车,全部后扎堆在一起,行人却自在地穿行其中。“原来在印度被奉为神的牛也会拉车啊!”在尼泊尔看惯了到处闲着的牛,以致于我对拉车的牛也会大惊小怪。当然,在后来的行程中,我每天都会在街头看见各种闲逛的牛。但在杰伊瑟尔梅尔和一位司机的聊天中,也终于明白,印度的牛虽然罩着一层神圣的光环,但实际上却连温饱这最基本的生活需求也达不到。 远处突然传来一阵敲锣打鼓的声音,向日葵色板官方把脖子伸得老长,循声望去,一辆打扮花哨、车头插着旗子、车顶坐满人的汽车向我们这个方向慢慢驶来。是有什么庆祝活动吗?我们也跟着锣鼓声兴奋起来,可惜,车驶到靠近向日葵色板官方的一个三叉路口,一转弯,便在向日葵色板官方的视线中消失了。“快点出去玩吧!”此时的向日葵色板官方,早已按捺不住内心的兴奋,想要赶快融入那无比嘈杂混乱,却又让人激动万分的花花世界。简单吃完这顿早午餐,我俩便把行李搬到楼下,准备寄存。前台叫来一位小伙子,让向日葵色板官方跟着他去寄存。于是,向日葵色板官方跟着他,又重新返回到二楼。他掏出钥匙,打开一间房门,把向日葵色板官方的驮包往行李架上一放,问向日葵色板官方房号,然后把房号写在一个上,往驮包上一挂就OK啦。我问他,“你不给我什么凭证吗?那我凭什么来取包?”他说,“取包时,说你的房号就可以了。”这样也可以?我满肚子狐疑。我已经退房了,现在的房间很快就会住进新的客人吧,我也只需报个房号就可以取走行李?不会搞错吗?“No problem!”他回答我。印度人喜欢说No problem,而事实上,向日葵色板官方认为很多不可思议的地方,于他们而言,真的不是什么问。他们有他们的习惯,仅此而已。只是我们不能理解罢了。在后面的行程中,所有酒店寄存行李都用的是这种方式,告诉他你的房号就行,当然他们也一次都没弄错过。 下午1330时分的德里街头,阳光灼烈,热浪袭人。sofoia 用帽子和口罩把自己包裹得严严实实。而此时的蟋蟀头,在T恤外还套了一件摄影背心,一副摄影人的准行头。当然,这件摄影背心,他在印度也只穿过这一天。因为,印度的高温与烈日,把蟋蟀头的专业形象彻底打败。 酒店距离新德里火车站仅500米,因Main Bazar上TUTU车较少,不利于讲价,向日葵色板官方准备步行到火车站再找TUTU车。火车站门口TUTU车的确很多,但就像商量好了一样,众口一辞,去红堡的车费一律Rs.100/辆,根本没有讨价还价的余地。于是,向日葵色板官方要了两辆TUTU车,一前一后向红堡奔去。在印度坐TUTU车,实在是一个惊险刺激又好玩的游戏,尤其是在车辆拥挤的路上,又或者在狭窄的小巷。每个司机似乎都车技了得,左冲右突,灵巧无比。车与车之间经常擦肩而过,最近的距离似乎只有0.1,车速却丝毫不会减慢,也没有什么交通事故发生。司机总是悠然自得,只有向日葵色板官方这些乘客才会一惊一乍。因路上交通堵塞,大概花了近半小时,向日葵色板官方才抵达红堡。下车时,司机示意向日葵色板官方,向日葵色板官方得走前面的地道,才能穿行到路的右边。因为在印度,车辆是靠道路左侧行驶。地道阴暗,味道难闻。有乞讨的小孩坐在墙角,也有流浪的人躺成一排。眼之所及,只觉凄凉,不禁让我想起电影《贫民窟中的百万富翁》中的场景。快步走出地道,重新回到杂乱的街面,我不禁深深地呼了一口气。阳光灿烂的感觉,实在比阴暗阴沉要好太多。转个弯,沙岩筑成的红堡便出现在了向日葵色板官方面前。到了红堡,先迫不及待地来一张到此一游照。虽然红堡是德里的重要景点之一,但对于将要去拉贾斯坦邦的人,往往都会直接忽略掉这个城堡。因为,在历史悠久的拉贾斯坦,散布着众多迷人的宫殿与古堡,一路走去,直到你审美疲劳。如此一来,德里的红堡,相较之下,似乎就逊色许多,以致于大多数人都直接把它cancel掉。我之所以想去红堡,只因为它是由沙· 贾汉所建。这个因建造了泰姬陵而名垂千秋的国王,因酷爱艺术与建筑,在他统治期间,一些极好的莫卧尔艺术和建筑的精品被创造了出来。在泰姬陵动工后的第七年,1638年,沙· 贾汉开始修建红堡,历时十年完工。([]
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,但是当向日葵色板官方从大北线回来以后,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([]

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 evaluate how easy to get you done, What you need to do is to show them that you are not interested in them and you are not afraid of them at all, let alone to show your ID card to them. As for the wolves family, really, I have not heard for ages. If you really have an encounter with them and they have no other choice, then it definitely depends on your forture. In fact, for so many year, it has been very rare to happen that wolves kill human. But the rumours are still there, in particular, the road connecting Xinjiang and Tibet.The nearest encounter with a wolf throughout my journey, no conflict at all[Brown Bears]Brown bears are real dangerous animals to human. Every year there are some accidents happened in some regions of Xinjiang on the north side of Kunkun Mountains and steppes in Northern Tibet. More than that the bears could attack your house, smash your windows, and eat your sheep. Therefore, in Northern Tibet some local councils give subsidies to the pastorarists for compensating the losses due to the bears because they are not allow to fight back and kill the bears except their lives are in great danger. Once there was a nomad taught me a method to protect yourself from bears. He told me to pick up a stick to feed the bear and the bear thinks the stick is your hand which tastes disgusting. So the bear would leave. It was so funny but the reality is to find a stick in this vast wilderness is just like you win the lottery.Bears are omonivorous animal who are generally not interested in human flesh. You can find that in most of accidents, the bears did not eat any of the human flesh rather they just smashed them for kind of fun that we could not understand. For the reason why bears kill human, one explanation is the conflict between human and wildlife in this extreme ecological environment. The nomads invade the habitats of the bears, which results in these conflicts. On the other hand, it might be because bears have quite high IQ so that they think it is much easy to kill a sheep in the cote rather than to kill a pika in the wild.I have met bears five times in my traverse, in two cases we were very close to each other. I had even walked with one of them for quite a while, just like we had a date for a walk. The fact is it is not that terrible like you might imagine. The same rules for dealing with wolves apply to bears. Never provoke dangerous animals. A bear can run at a speed of 40km/h, do you think you can compete this in a highland 5,000m above sea level?However, there is a situation where it is really dangerous, that is the encounter. It is not easy to control your instinctive reaction to the external dangers. Last year once I turned around a hill, there was a bear just in front of me. The bear of course was frightened by me with its front legs holding up, waving in the air and roaring. At that time I sat on the ground, ignoring it. The bear then left in a few minutes. Chang Tang is a vast land so that this is not that easy to happen. But if it does happen, really only God can bless you.The nearest encounter with a bear throughout my journey. This bear disappeared in a herd of wild yaks, which I had tried hard to spot, really weird About wildlife (part 2)Declaration personal experience for reference only.[Wild Yaks]I have talked about quite a few, like in the post of Day10. I will no longer talk about it.This was the funniest encounter with a solitary wild yak, who did not warn me. If I sat down, it sat down too. If I moved forward, it stopped. Could not imagine what it was thinking about.[Crows]Crows are dangerous only when you fall unconscious in the wilderness. Of course they will be the first to taste your flesh in that case. Unlike their cousinsliving in urban areas, the crows in Chang Tang have a larger body like eagles. When they fly over your head, you could feel like it is a piece of cloud. They are scavengers but like fresh meat too. It once happened that a baby was killed by crows relentlessly, let alone the lambs got killed by them. Once a nomad asked me for fireworks to scare the crows away. (They are sacred birds not to be killed by human)It is easy to defend yourself against crows, that is to keep fighting, never fall in the wilderness.A short break attracted the crows. Of course, they were miscalculating this time, photo taken last year[Strategies Adopted]At the time when I met the four soldiers in Jieshan Daban, they said there were many dangerous animals in the Northern Tibet and asked me if I had brought a shotgun. I think if they knew that I would enter Chang Tang they would definitely check if I really have a shotgun. The so-called defence facilities I brought with me were the fireworks and pepper spray. I had never used them. The fireworks were ruined and thrown away when I crossed a river and I had never opened the pepper spray. I even had never thought about this when camping in the night. The reason was I did not feel the needs. During the day time whenever I met any animals I had never touched the knife I had brought. I did not have anything to defend myself when I walked out to investigate the route. The Chang Tang is really a vast area so as to be very easy to detect anything strange.By the way, you'd better to avoid mating season's animals because even tamed rabbits could be aggressive in mating season.The thing is even if you have a gun, it is not very much helpful when bears attack you. Therefore, your attitude is most important.I can tell you something. Dogs are more dangerous than these wild animals. I had been chased by Tibetan dogs, pounced on by dogs in mating season, also besieged by a group of dogs. I really feel it is more useful to know how to defend a dog.Declaration again The above experience is from Chang Tang only. Of course, the more you prepared, the better. Day 12 (May 1), 23.8km, Camping 5117mToday was May 1 -- the Labour Day, I had been walking in some lake area marked in the map but clearly dried up. The lake basin was flat and hard so that I even pushed my bike more than 20km. Let it be the special treat for my May Day. After midday it became cloudy with growing winds. Since the Yueya Hu that I passed yesterday, there were no big lakes until Yanghu Co (My route would be between Jianshui Hu and Bairab Co), there was even no light alkaline water to drink so I had to pay extra attention not to miss any possible drinking water supply to fill up my water bag. There were a few very small lakes but all were alkaline puddles which was very shallow, whose depth was no more than the length of a half-finger. These puddles were covered with a hard shell of the mixture of salt and ice which smelled stinking and decaying when getting closer, must be toxic water I supposed. On the shore of this type of small lakes it was muddy soil and very hard to get closer.There was no sign of tundra at all.It was almost half past six when I found some snow corns in a ditch, which was the only drinking water supply of the day. There was a thin layer of melted ice on the surface of the ground near the snow corn, which was very hard to collect and was contaminated by the alkali. The snow corn was the yet melted thick snow, which was shaped like a corn by wind. The snow was quite hard and dry,porous like ice. I crushed a few snow corns, putting them into the water bag.They would be my drinking water tonight. These snow corns were the only one in today's wilderness, I reckoned the reason why they were not melted like others was the soil underneath contained large amount of ice blocks which acted as a freezer.Very strong gale in the night, it was hard to bear the sound of the vibration of the tent. Small single tent was good in the sense that it would not be blown away as long as you stayed inside. But you had to be very careful to set up the tent. I once did not pay much attention when doing so, the tent was blown away by winds, and rolling over like a Giant lantern ... I ran after it, got it back, and was exhausted. In general, it is not possible to fix the tent completely using tent pegs because they were not very much effective like large tents. It was snowing around 23 o'clock, the winds were howling from north,then the falling snow flakes landed on my tent quietly, I finally felt at peace and fell asleep. The flat ancient lake basin, assisting me walking more than 20kmSmall lake en route, toxic waterSnow corns, the only drinking water supply today Day 13 (May 2), 0km, Camping 5117mWaking up in the morning and opening the tent, the heavy snow outside must be sent by the God to force me have a break for the May Day. After lying in for a while, getting up and walking on the snowy ground out I went to have a look around. As first sight there were a herd of chirus. They were plainly to be spotted because they looked like a clear black straight line in the while snow. I returned to get my camera and then followed them to take some pictures. But they were very much alert and kept a quite long distance from me. I felt they were a group of pregnant females, instinctively protecting themselves from any potential harm. I was no longer short of water, the snow gave me a precious supply of drinking water. The problem was that they were very petrol consuming. I tool 8.6 litre of petrol and the oil stove was Duola's MSR. The pot was of 1.5 litre, mainly for boiling water. After several days' experiments, I found that the liquid water needed 16mins and 14-15mins to boil in the morning and evening, respectively. For ice, it would take 35-40mins while for snow it took 45-50mins. Melting snow was a very time and petrol consuming process so if I had a choice between snow and light alkaline water, most of time I would go with the latter. Lying inside the tent, listening to musics,I smoked a cigarette while gazing at the more and more chirus around me. Because it was very cold I had been wearing my shoes all the time. Now I just put my bare feet under the warm sun for some fresh air. I found three cuts in my hands and one in my sole. The cuts were about 4cm in length, looked terrible but it was actually all right really. Half of my toes were injured by to much walking, quite painful. I fetched my medicine bag and found I only got four patches of plasters, a serious mistake. One of the cuts in my hand had never been cured until I was out of this desolate land so as to feel like this finger would drop from my hand at any time. The others quickly recovered in a few days then new cuts appeared elsewhere. This process occurred periodically. I felt that it was somewhat related to the cold, dry weather and the lack of vitamins. The snow rapidly disappeared, which is unique phenomenon in Chang Tang. Because of the low air humidity and the high radiation from the sun, the snow was evaporating very fast, much quicker than the melting speed. Owing to this, the ground was generally still dry after the snow disappeared. In most cases, it would be only 2/5 left in the afternoon around 2 to 3 o'clock and small patches of ground could be seen. It would be completely all right for walking the next day. On the third day there could be some snow left in somewhere the sunlight hard to reach. So generally it could give you three days of water supply after a heavy snow like this. One of the pannier was broken, the most expensive one from deuter series, supposed to be waterproof. I will come back to it at some point later. Everything was covered by snow, no way out Lying in the middle of Chang Tang, listening to Tian Zhen's songs, and smoking Baisha cigarettes, what else can you ask for? The pregnant female chirus in migration, probably heading to Heishi Beihu to give birt
