苏翰萱2013年春节，准备去越南柬埔寨看看。 原计划是从南宁陆路进越南，由北往南穿越越南到柬埔寨吴哥窟后回国。 做好计划开始买飞机票时发现，从柬埔寨暹粒回国的机票比较贵，从国内去胡志明的机票倒是比较便宜。 这次去柬埔寨主要就是去看那世界七大奇迹的吴哥窟，去寻找高棉的微笑，这是不能略去的。 于是就有了直飞胡志明市，由胡志明市去柬埔寨暹粒，再回到胡志明市，再一路北下，经过美奈，大叻，牙庄，惠安，顺化，河内，下龙湾回国的路线。 虽然去柬埔寨走了个回头路，但从节约自己并不充分的资金上来看，还是个不错的选择。 废话不多说，直接看图说话，虽然照片质量不好，但以量取胜吧。 一千多张照片记录了全程，并附有路线攻略。 春节前，赶上越南证涨价，向日葵色板官方是两次入境越南，需要一月两次入境，两本证花了1140元。 福州飞上海再飞胡志明市两人机票包括税费2850元。 因为向日葵色板官方的飞机是凌晨到达胡志明市，在国内预定了宾馆，2晚总计30刀，加接机14刀。 带了1300刀，剩余290刀。两个人总花费约10566元。 飞机正点到达胡志明市已经是凌晨1点了。 出关很顺利。 走出机场就看到有人举着向日葵色板官方名字的大牌子。 如果不是这么晚到达，根本不需要订酒店和接机，机场有大巴去市内。 在BOOKING订的房间总是不能让人满意，（但又能去哪里订纳？）， 只有一个优点是提供早餐。 住在范五老街的小胡同里，走出胡同口就看见The SinhTourist的招牌。这个小帅哥是店里唯一会汉语的人。要不然，真不知道只会几个英语单词的半大老人怎么搞定买很多班次的汽车票。在The SinhTourist买了明天由胡志明市去柬埔寨暹粒的车票。本想买好回来时由胡志明市去河内的OPENBUS全程票。由于赶上了越南的春运。虽然现在是提前了一星期买票，但只有胡志明--美奈--大叻这一段路程有车票。而且只剩余4张票，赶紧掏钱把这一段的票先买了。其实在范五老街有很多家公司经营OPENBUS。向日葵色板官方从The SinhTourist出来，走了不到50米，看到一家公司卖OPENBUS票。可是售票员不会汉语，向日葵色板官方又不懂英语。正在对牛弹琴时，一位新加坡人也来买票，帮助向日葵色板官方买好了后半程的车票，而且还是全程卧铺车票。显然，这段路程的车票已经涨价。现在想想，The SinhTourist不是没有票，他是在等涨价再卖。涨点钱能买到票就好。向日葵色板官方后来遇到很多人买不到车票，从而打乱了整个旅游计划。向日葵色板官方避开了国内的春运，来到越南却赶上了越南的春运。看来，春节期间也要避开越南旅游了。这家公司的马路对面有换汇的，汇率比市中心区的金店低点。换了点越南盾去吃午饭，就在大街边上的小店。价格一点也不比国内便宜，越南人做生意是一致对外，内外有别。范五老街志性建筑。旅店有简易地图。范五老街距胡志明市的景点并不是很远，我们也想走路沿线看看。来前就听说越南的水果鲜榨汁很好喝，路边看到一家，结果是大失所望。晚上回来在小胡同的另一出口处，有一家现做现卖，有很多人坐在小板凳上等待，那个才是好喝。街边小公园街景在繁华的大街中央广场，有一尊骑马铜像，是越南的民族英雄陈元汉。他昭示世人，越南人民是不会忘记历史的。说到越南的历史，是离不开中国的。秦朝时，秦始皇派军队征服了越南北部，中国的版图扩大到越南。公元10世纪，五代十国时，交趾叛乱。爱州（今越南清化）牙将吴权在海门镇打败汉军，次年称王。968年越南丁朝建立，安南最终建立了国家，但一千多年来一直作为中国的属国或藩属国。19世纪后期，法国对越南进行殖民侵略，清朝派兵抵抗，冯子材和刘永福、黑旗军等参战。1885年，清政府与法国订《中法新约》，被迫承认越南独立。从此，越南彻底从中国版图独立，并沦为法国殖民地。1945年第二次世界大战结束前后，胡志明在越南北方的河内宣布独立。而南方还处在受法国殖民保护的保大皇帝管辖之下。1954年7月21，署《日内瓦协议》。《日内瓦协议》规定，越南以北纬17度为界，南北分治，北方由胡志明领导，南方由保大皇帝统治。1955年7月17日，美国撕毁了《日内瓦协议》，取代法国在越南南方的地位，设定了所谓的越南共和国。吴庭艳发动政变，废黜保大皇帝，自己当了总统，建立南越南共和国，首都为西贡。自此，越南南方沦为美国新殖民主义的殖民地。1961年，越南战争爆发，美国与韩国、菲律宾、泰国、澳大利亚、新西兰等国组成联军，介入了这场战争。中国出动军方和大量民力、免费物质，支持越南，援越抗美。1973年1月27日《巴黎协定》订，美国承认越南民主共和国在国际上的法律地位，退出越南战争。同年3月从越南南方撤出全部军队及其同盟者军队和军事人员。1975年5月，胡志明领导的越盟（即后来的越南劳动党）击败了吴庭艳政府。1976年7月，越南南北实现统一，定国名为越南社会主义共和国，首都为河内。为了纪念胡志明的伟业，将前南方首府西贡改名为胡志明市。陈元汉铜像前方是滨城市场，是胡志明市最大的市场。里面各类生活旅游纪念用品齐全。还有各类越南小吃。越南曾经沦为法殖民地，法式烙印无处不在，从早点的法棍到街边的咖啡店让人以为身处欧洲某小镇。中国元素也无处不在，从门面上的汉字到理发小作坊。刮胡子捏背与国内一样舒坦。无论大街小巷，摩托都是绝对的主力。原来以为越南是个穷国。现在已经颠覆了以前的认识。越南国家是不富，但人民却不穷。不像天国，国家富人民穷。到总统府已经快4点了，拍了张照片没进去。门前有妹妹执勤，很乐意与我合影。合影后还到没有路灯的马路上将往来车辆叫停，让向日葵色板官方轻松过马路。胡志明市路边有很多这样大的公园，供市民在公园里休闲歇息。从总统府走到红教堂只有几分钟的路程。圣母大教堂是法国人于1883年建成，据说建造教堂的红砖全部是从法国运来，是仿照巴黎圣母院钟楼的设计建造的。教堂不收门票，但只对游客开放前面一小部分。站在教堂的入口处，看那高大的穹顶和花窗，配上庄严肃穆的神像，显得庄重又有气势。从教堂前方看，两座40米高的白色钟塔直冲云霄。门前伫立着一座重达4吨的圣母玛丽亚雕像，红色基座白色雕像与身后的红教堂相配的极为融洽。红教堂的旁边是百年邮政局。从外表看是一幢普通的欧式建筑。但里面穹顶设计源自伦敦水晶宫的大玻璃屋顶。漂亮的地砖，红色电话亭，手绘的西贡地图和墙上巨幅胡志明画像勾勒出一幅豪华又安详的画面。我也不能免俗，在这豪华又古老的邮局里寄出一张写给自己的明信片。走出邮局，四周景色。红教堂正对着的路是胡志明市最繁华的一条路。路口街头的宣传画，好像又回到40年前的中国。中国统治了越南上千年，越南的很多民俗与中国一样。传统节日主要有春节、清明、端午、中秋、重阳等。现在春节快到了，路上张灯结彩，很有过年的气氛。也不乏高档商场，大牌云集。进百盛商场看看，世界各地的大牌都能在这里看到。二楼还有吃饭的地方。PHO24米粉连锁店在越南很有名气，但我不喜欢吃米粉，没尝试。走过百盛就是歌剧院，歌剧院的建筑风格是最具法属时期的建筑。([]

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

台湾a版红楼梦钟楚红
王映如每年至少游一个地方，是这几年一直所追求的。当然，都是自由行。2011年去过新疆，进行过一天的徒步，就被这种旅行方式深深吸引，全身心地投入，去感觉大自然对身体和心灵的冲击和洗礼，让所有的一切得到彻底的放松，徒步游的种子已在心底发芽。一直在网上找各种徒步线路，国内的、国外的。尼泊尔的几条徒步线路闻名世界，其中以ABC、ACT、EBC最为代表。EBC线路大都在5000米以上，最担心高反无法适应，ABC和ACT都是比较好的选择，有逐步适应的过程。选择很久，攻略看了N多，决定进行安娜普尔纳大环（ACT)徒步，原旅伴都因各种原因无法成行，一咬牙，决定个人独自前往，路上再找旅伴。而且因为是一个人，仗着身体素质好，ACT也成熟，决定不找向导，不雇背夫，挑战一下重装徒步大环。除了新疆一天漫步式的徒步，个人从来没有其它户外经验，重装徒步更是没有经历过，心里还是有点发毛，临行前几天加入了一个QQ背包客群，找到了一个和我同一线路的旅伴，就这样，开始我人生第一次重装徒步行。 尼泊尔徒步线路众多，被称为徒步者的天堂，一点也不为过，而安娜普尔纳大环线则被誉为“世界第一徒步线路”。确实，一圈走下来，深切地感受到了她的魅力。先把行程列一下，给想去的朋友一个参考：第一天：加德满都—Besisahar—Syange，乘车13小时；第二天：Syange—Dharapani，徒步9小时，行程21公里，上升850米；第三天：Dharapani—Bhratang，徒步10.5小时，行程23公里，上升950米；第四天：Bhratang—Ngawal，徒步10小时，行程17公里，上升830米；第五天：Ngawal—Manang，徒步3小时，行程10公里，下降140米；第六天：Manang—Tilicho Base Camp，徒步7.5小时，行程16公里，上升660米；第七天：Tilicho Base Camp—Tilicho Lake—Sheree Kharka，徒步10小时，先上升1000米，再下降1150米；第八天：Sheree Kharka—Letdar，徒步8小时，行程13公里，上升150米；第九天：Letdar—High Camp，徒步7小时，行程7公里，上升650米；第十天：High Camp—Thorung Pass—Muktinath，徒步6.5小时，行程14公里，先上升566米，后下降1600米；Muktinath—Jomsom—Ghasa，乘车5小时；行程49公里；第十一天：Ghasa—Tatopani ，乘车3小时，Tatopani—Ghorepani，徒步7小时，行程17公里，上升1700米；第十二天：Ghorepani—Poonhill—Ghorepani—Nayapul，徒步10小时，行程16公里，先上升330米，后下降2230米。在加德满都“New Bus Station”乘车去传统徒步起点BESISAHAR，一点也看不出是新公交车站的味道,车站破旧，车也破旧，但人还是很友善的，这个感觉，在尼泊尔整个行程中都能感受到。路上堵车是家常便饭，尼泊尔全境就没有几条公路，所有去尼泊尔旅游的人要有心理准备。当然，有飞机的地方，乘机是最快的选择，但尼泊尔的飞机安全吗？心里打鼓，2012年9月28还掉了一架。尼泊尔的卡车都很具有观赏性，都类似这样跟大篷车似的 到了BESISAHAR后，原徒步起点从这开始，但现在已经开始往里修路了，大部分人会继续乘车，向日葵色板官方也在BESISAHAR换乘，一辆公交挤满了人，挤不进的就坐车顶。不过，坐在车顶，必须具备两项条件，一是技术好，因为在山路，车子在行进过程中不断摇晃，而且幅度不小，要当心被晃下来；二是心理素质，这车在山路上行走，一边就是靠着悬崖，下边是滚滚的河水，有时车轮离悬崖不到30CM，坐在车里都有心惊胆战，在车顶，没有一定的心理素质估计够呛。行至一半，又堵车了，那辆430的公交坏在路边，正好是拐弯路口，所有车不得都停下来。大家注意，在尼泊尔山区，公交的底盘比越野车的底盘要高得多，往往很多越野车过不去的，公交车反而能过，当然，这是指专门在山区里通行的公交车。有几位老外等不了啦，干脆背起包来走人，反正是来徒步的与我们同车的俄罗斯小妞干脆当起了模特就这样，向日葵色板官方折腾到晚上8点才到SYNGE，基本上旅店都没满了，顶着头灯找了一家住下，没热水洗澡，随便吃点东西，擦擦身体睡了，听了一晚的浪涛声，第二天早晨起来，才发现住在了河边。第二天的早餐，煮土豆加奶茶，配点自己带去的榨菜，心里觉得土豆含淀粉高，热量必然高，能应付徒步的消耗出发时的背负，毕竟是新驴，这种背负让我第一天就差点崩溃。胸前挂着小包和相机，大包在肩带紧紧贴着肩膀，整个负重都在肩和脖子上，大包腰带是松的，老驴一看就知道背负不对。刚出发时还是这么意气风发的样子。徒步开始，我的新伙伴－－阿健，一路上多亏他照顾，才让我顺利完成大环徒步。看了这张照片，才明白为什么叫“驴友”。这大环线上，各个客栈的补给，都是这样人扛驴驮上去的。 前两天的路，都是这样山清水秀空气好，除了有时会闻到驴粪味，至少还是乡野的气味。没有城市中的喧嚣和汽车尾气的污染。向日葵色板官方几乎都是每天上午7点出发，下午2－5点到目的地。这是向日葵色板官方经过的第一个之字坡。大环线上，这种之字坡比比皆是，这种比较缓的坡走起来还不太费劲，后面有几个之字坡，走的差点让人崩溃。 前面山谷中的村庄是JAGAT，是大环线上第一个比较大的村镇。路上碰到去上学的学生，很大方地合影。尼泊尔虽然经济落后，但对教育十分重视，向日葵色板官方经过的地方，最好的房子基本上都是学校，而且全免费教学，学生统一着装，走出来看着都赏心悦目。这些学生上午10点上课，下午4点放学，每天往返需要走路2个多小时，真是很辛苦。但看他们，脸上都洋溢着笑容，很能感染人。阿建同志跟同学们在亲切交谈，尽管他的英语水平很差，但孩子们还是觉得他很帅，愿意交谈。在这山区里，一般都是几个村庄才一所学校，因此大多数孩子上学都得翻山越岭，一趟要一个多小时。到一JAGAT村口。这些村庄，除了日常农作外，大部分都兼营客栈，以接待越来越多的徒步者。一路上，村里的客栈大都很漂亮，而且干净，尤其是被鲜花装点，别有一番风味，让人流连。客栈的老板娘和她的孩子，看到他们向日葵色板官方照相，很友善地对着向日葵色板官方微笑，那孩子笑容中带着些羞涩，但都是那么真诚，我明白了，为什么那个写尼泊尔的书名叫《尼泊尔的微笑》，朴实的笑容确实打动了我。 过了JAGAT，路过的瀑布逐渐增多在这种山清水秀的地方徒步，真是一种享受辛苦的背夫。他们的背负能力真的很强大，背着这么重的东西，比大部分徒步者都快，而且基本上都穿着拖鞋。这两位的拖鞋算是很好的，穿人字拖走大环的背夫占大多数。而这种背负就是专门用来搬运石头用的。中午12点左右，向日葵色板官方到达CHAMCHE，只是简单地吃了路餐，便继续赶路了。走出村口约一公里后，向日葵色板官方发现河对岸也有一条路，而且徒步者明显比这边多，怀疑自己是否走错路。后来才知道，向日葵色板官方走的这条是新开的路，传说大环线要修公路，估计是真的。但为了保险起见，我们还是打算去走老路。向日葵色板官方返回CHAMCHE，在村里一个不起眼的地方找到了老路的路口。感觉这样的路才是真正徒步的线路，在公路上走算怎么回事呀。向日葵色板官方走的第一座铁索桥。在大环线上，这种铁索桥很多，走起来晃悠悠的。 向日葵色板官方还在桥上照相的时候，遇到了昨天同车前来的俄罗斯姑娘。她们本来没有背夫，后来感觉重装无法走完大环，昨晚临时在住宿的地方雇了村里的背夫，费用好像也比较低，一个背夫一天700卢比（约50多元人民币）。但如果要保险一些，还是跟当地旅行社雇用背夫，能订合同，不满意还可以投诉退款。天下驴友是一家，见面了自然很高兴。 这种路走起来有点费劲，落脚点不实在。 哥俩第一次合影。有飞流直下三千尺的感觉。我曾经在《中国国家地理》杂志上看到过这幅图，当时惊为天堂的徒步环境。现在，这座挺拔险峻的山峰拦腰被切了一段路，山体和植被完全被破坏，给这美丽的山谷添了一道永远无法弥补的伤疤。从理智上，我也知道山里的人要发展经济，改善生活，但看到这一幕，还是不自觉地感到心痛。([]

There are many like-minded asking me about it. I now present this thread to briefly tell everybody about my journey.The starting point of this traverse was from the highest peak of the western part of the Tibetan plateau, Jieshan Daban, and the day was April 20, 2010.I was heading eastward passing Bungdag Co, Yanghu Co, Rola Co, and Kangzhagri Mountain, which crossed over the desolate region from west to east. The journey continued northward to enter the unpopulated area of Altun Mountains, through Hoh Xil Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, Whale lake, ..., finally met some people by the Aqqikkol Hu and then arrived in Huatugou by vehicle three days later and that day was July 5. It had been 77 days in total. I had been all alone 74 days after leaving Jieshan Daban until arriving inAqqikkol Hu, which was about 1400km and about four months.[The Great Chang Tang] In Tibetan, "Chang Tang" means northern empty wilderness while narrowly, means unpopulated region in northern part of Tibet. However, it actually indiCATes all of the no man's land in northern. The great Chang Tang includes desolate places in Northern Tibet, Hoh Xil, Alun Mountains, and Kunlun Mountains, which are interconnected to form the unique and super empty wilderness in the world. Only because Hoh Xil is the most known name, most people just think this vast land is equivalent to Hoh Xil. In reality, Hoh Xil is only a small piece of the Great Chang Tang both administratively and geologically. The Great Chang Tang, the last land to chase your freedom and dream.The route that I traversed ForeplayI arrived in Tibet in the early March, a couple of troubles bothered me. The brand new plug got its positive and negative wrongly connected; the rivets of my rucksack eASIly got broken from now and again; and a multi-functional charger got damaged and so on. Riding my bike to Ngari for warming up of this journey, lost my rucksack but later got it back; lost my camera bag and got it back later again, and finally lost a big bicycle pannier in the street of Gyangze town under the eyes of police, including clothes, solar panel and so on.Without much choice, I returned to Lhasa to adjust all the stuff I would need in the wilderness. Then I begged some luck by going to Nyingchi to enjoy the blossoms of peach trees and to take a hot spring bath. I even had the privilege to enjoy time with ten girls in the hot spring. I felt my bad luck had all gone and then returned to Lhasa again to prepare going to Ngari. I did not expect that I was cheated on by some hustler and lost some money and delayed my schedule for a week. I had to find a car myself quickly to Nagri. However, I lost the tool for fast-parting my rear wheel on my way to Nagri, where was a remote area in Tibet and nowhere to buy the tool. Even if there was one in Lhasa it would take at least ten days for a special delivery service. I was lucky that my mate Duola asked a driver to bring the tool for me from Lhasa. I thought there should be no more nightmare like this but the nozzle of my brand new multi-fuel stove was broken. The next day I tried everywhere to weld them back together. The first three shops could not do the welding for copper. The fourth one said they could do it but could not guarantee a sUCCess. The engineer said it would be ten Chinese yuans if it was a success. I agreed. Just in seconds, my nozzle became crap in a flash of lightening. I was so upset. Again, Duola helped me by bringing her own MSR oil stove and Dingding's sleeping bag to Nagri. That was already April 16 and I did not have much time to waste. The following day I found a vehicle heading to Jieshan Daban.The sand storm over Yarlung Zangbo RiverA lonely peach tree blossoming in Yarlung Zangbo Grand CanyonNatural hot spring in wild, me singing and drinking (photo by a friend of mine) Day 1(April 20), 16km, Camping 5192mIt was a truck with a full load of iron wastes, arriving in Jieshan Daban at 6'o clock in the morning. It was still night and extremely cold and dark. Driver was not bothered to pop his head out of the driving cab. I climbed up on the top of the iron wastes, taking my bicycle down. In a hurry, I punched my old water bag. Fortunately I had another MSR water bag given by a friend of mine otherwise I would definitely fail without even starting my journey. For the first time for me to set up the brand new tent in strong, cold winds. It would be impossible to do so if the tent was not a whole piece. Extremely cold outside, about -15C, might be lower than that, I put my head into the sleeping bag but was nearly suffocated to death, honestly. The smell of Dingding's sleeping bag was, lol, so extraordinary. I woke up around 11 o'clock. There were still strong winds outside so that I had to use my bodyweight to keep the tent in place. At the time when I just started to cook and eat, four patrolling soldiers approached me. To their surprise someone, in this season, camped in Jieshan Daban. I was so nervous and afraid they were the people to block my journey because I was caught and deported from the desolate land last year. Luckily the four soldiers did not know my destination and were very kind to me. After they left, I immediately packed my stuff and pushed my bike into the depths of the unpopulated area just in case anything unexpected happened.The bike was very heavy due to the provisions and hard to control. There was even a quite small hill that I had to remove my bike panniers to get over it. This really struck me because this happened even the path was still the hardship one at the moment and I could not imagine what I would do once I entered the uncertain, endless wilderness. Until now I had not met anyone, even the nomadic pastoralists. I remembered there were quite a few of them roaming at the edge of the northern Tibetan plateau last year. All of these indicated it was not the good pasture season in such low temperature and strong winds. Around 16km there was a sheep cote, where I passed it last year, east of Lungmu Co. I was exhausted at this point so that I decided to camp in here and to rest my head. After arranging tent everything I went out to look for the wetland discovered by Duola and Liumeng last year. I was determined to find it.There were many hot springs in the wetland which were underground water with a constant temperature. The wetland therefore became an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such harsh weather, which was the very unique land feature of terrain in this over 5200m highland.Perpetual snow in the valley blown to corn shape by strong windsThis wetland was discovered by Duola and Liumeng. The workers at a nearby mine did not know it and I too missed it last yearUnderground water with a constant temperature, an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such icy weather 感谢大伙儿支持和加分，不一一回复了。特别感谢多啦，希望能有机会一起喝酒吃肉。 Day 2 (April 21), 0km, Camping5192mBlustering gale all night, up and down like ocean waves. The next day rather than continuing to travel, I stayed inside the sheep cote, hesitating and pondering over. Indeed, there were so many problems before this journey;I did not have sufficient physical preparation;the load had already reached its limitation; I still coughed a lot;the weather was so extreme and cold. All in all, I did not think this journey was well prepared and I did not have confidence in completing this journey mentally and physically. To do, or not to do, it was the question. Similarly I did not have confidence in my facilities, not knowing whether all of them would work functionally or not. The fact was one of the rivets got broken again and the front rack came loose. In the afternoon, I replaced all the rivets of the panniers with screws I had prepared before. This was an excellent job I had done which gave me no further troubles throughout my whole journey. I also re-adjusted the front rack. However I did not think it would definitely all right because I did not have a tool to do it. When the darkness descended,I made up my mind to continue my journey, which, of course, was not beyond any imagination. Orchid-like weedsSmall springs everywhere, clear and chillyA thin layer of ice covering the fresh spring water The sheep cote, it was the door under the sleeping bag, which was in the same place as last year, everything looked like yesterdayThe wetland at duskLungmu Co at dusk. You could hear the gigantic sound of wind if the picture had a sound Day 3 (April 22), 52.4km, Camping 5145mGot up in the morning, could not put everything into the bags. Without much choice I had to throw away three portions of tsampa, elbow pads, and crampons. Following the road of the lead-zinicmine I found the side path to enter the wilderness, which was on the riverbed and very hard to see. I missed this side path last year so that I had to take a short cut into the wilderness directly then. That was why I had taken extra care to find the side path. The following journey was to get over a big hill, which lay 5275m above sea level and was the highest point of my whole journey. Around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I passed the side path leading to Orba Co and started a journey which was complete strange to me. I ate a piece of pilot breads, which was frozen like rocks so that I had to use my spade to crush it. At 6 o'clock in the evening, I had pushed plus rode my bicycle for about 32 km. I reckoned I should have been able to double this if I did no carry such heavy load. The wind became stronger and stronger. I opened the parasail kits and tested it. The result was far beyond what I expected. With the aid of the strong wind I was just like flying over the wilderness. After 8 o'clock in the evening, I started to observe the water Source and to get ready to camp. Map showed there were successive springs along the path and assembled to puddles. But I had overestimated the water source here in this land and in this season there were endless wilderness inside the valley, where I could not see a single drop of water. As it became darker and darker, I felt a little bit nervous which resulted in three spokes of the parasail broken and became a useless rubbish. Anyway, it helped me to move forward 20km more which benefited me a lot later on. When time approached 9.30 pm, it was almost completely dark. I had to lie my bike on the ground and went on to try to find water on the north side of the valley. This was a wide and flat sandy land, where I could not see any ditches there and further was complete darkness. I returned to get my GPS to look up the contours and found the south part of the valley was closer to a hill so I took the way. Finally I found a piece of ice in a ditch. I smashed about 20litre of ice. The ice was quite shallow scattered with sheep poo. On my way back, my eyes were hurt by strong winds, which got me a couple of days to recover. It was nearly 23 o'clock after I set up the tent. It also took about 40 mins to melt the ice. I was so tired and my appetite was completely spoiled. I then had a little bit of milk. I had never expected thing would go like this, it was so distressing. Streams along the path, ice everywhereThe river flew into Matou Hu, in whose north part there was a satellite lake, a wonderful ice-skating court It took 40mins to melt the ice in midnight Day 4 (April 23), 31km, Camping 5028mA cloudy day with gusts. From now and again, hails chased me from behind. Sunny spell. Heavy sandy land made me have to push my bike. At 3pm, I arrived at Luxing Hu, where there was a house made of clay. This was the last permanent building of my journey. Last year, Duola and Liumeng once lived in this house for three days without meeting anybody. It seemed it was the same but the truck parking in front of the house made me worry about. I went to the sheep cote first to check over, where there were only a few lambs following me everywhere I went later on. This made me feel warm in my heart. I observed farther places using my binoculars but could not see any people or sheeps. After making sure there were no people around I opened the locked door using a screwdriver. The living room was very clean. There were two boxes of beverages on the ground and a string of cured lamb legs hanging over in the interior room. A pot of water was on the top of the stove, lukewarm, which indicated the host must be not far away from his home. I filled up my water bag and left the house. I also put the screws back to the door in order not to leave any trace of my visiting. I then took a spanner from the toolbox of the truck, which gave me great help for the rest of the journey.I left the house as quickly as possible. After last year's experience, the nomadic pastoralists were the last people I wanted to meet. A few hundred meters away from the house, the vehicle traces were fading fast. Even downhill, I had to push rather than to ride because of the heavy loose sand. From the route point of view, only after Luxing Hu it was the real unpopulated land. After many days, I thought of the lamb legs from time to time. It was pity that I then had plenty of provisions and the bike was too heavy to carry anything more. Continue to melt the ice under the morning sunshine, all of the sheep poo had been removed carefullyCamping site, the little hill over there was the place where I got the ice last nightThe house by the Luxing Hu, empty, the last permanent building I saw throughout my journeyDay 5 (April 24), 19.8km, Camping 4951mSet off at 10.30 in the morning, the weather was similar to yesterday. Probably this road was the high plain or somewhere the wind passed so that it was so windy. The average wind speed was degree 6 but could reach degree 9 in the blick of an eye. The road was still full of sand and very heavy to walk on it. My eyes became worse under such harsh weather. About three o'clock in the afternoon, I saw something in my right, looked like antenna. I went closer to see what it was and found out it was an iron tower (the triangulation station). In 1970s, a joint team from Chinese three military regiments entered this area doing research. They have left a lot of triangulation stations and benchmarks, which I had the priviledge to see them today.At dusk, I approached to a spring by the Bungdag Co, which flew into the frozon lake. The sand and soil, brought by the strong wind, scattered on the surface of the ice all over the lake. There were so many cracks around the icey surface of the lake. I geussed it must be caused by the springs under the water rather than by melted ice. In the west of the Bungdag Co was the side path leading to Keriya Pass, where a SUV could reach directly. I had looked out any vehicle Tracks but failed. The cloudy sky started to snow. I set up the tent comfortably because I knew that I was safe having such a sweet spring beside me.Triangulation station erected by scientists from the joint research team on Chang Tang of three military regiments in 1971[size=+0]The gap between water and ice in Bungdag Co, I guessed there must be some springs under the lakeThe storm just above the ground, a chaotic darkness[size=+0]Icy Bungdag Co,one of the four biggest lakes in Northern Tibet, wild ducks flying over this vastness and lonenessSnowing at any time, should not happen so frequently like this in this seasonDay 6 (April 25), 4.3km, Camping 5002mWeathering landforms everywhere around this area. Spongy volcanic rocks could be found easily. I pushed my bike turning around a small hill, seeing a big river, the Yinshui He, flowing from Orba Co into Bungdag Co, which I had been to its upstream last year. It was also a passage for animal migration. The downstream of the river was extremely wide and broad. The thickess of the ice layer could reach one meter with the main stem in the middle course of the river, very deep. There were a few springs along the river, sweet and clear.I only went forward a little bit more than 4km but I had walked more than 20km for finding my way. It was not possible to cross the main stem, let alone the north bank of Bungdad Co. What I could only do was to try to find a shallow place to cross. But the southern area was a even larger piece of wetland and forced the road turn towards west. I spent a couple of hours but failed to find a good point to cross the river. In the afternoon, I decided to follow the edge of the wetland. When I reached the hill foot, the wetland finally disappeared. Around this area, there were clearly volcanic feature of terrain and I even found traces of pasturing and cairns made from volcanic rock.Here was the last pasturing trace I found throughout my journey, I guessed it was a summer pasture area. After this, there was no clear sign of human activities in this vast wilderness. I had been looking for my ways until it was dark. I made up my mind where to go TOMOrrow. The terrain here looked like Yardang landforms, as well as volcanic landforms The Yinshui He river from Orba CoSprings scattered all over the river bank, painted green by lovely algaeThe river was very deep. The mixture of green and amber colour showed the sand and mud carried by the melted iceThick layer of ice, sunken surface caused by strong gustsThe south course of the Yinshui He, countless small streams. To the right was the wetlandLooking for ways in the east, a trace of pasturing and the cairn made from spongy volcanic rocksMy camp, opposite to the hillDay 7 (April 26), 11km, Camping 5009mI moved forward to the direction I found yesterday, turning around the wetland and walking toward east. At 2pm, I was blocked by the zigzag Yinshui He again and I had no choice but to cross it. The river was about 700m wide, covered by ice which appeared very different. The hanging ice, the folding ice, the piling-up ice, the icy puddle, and the sleet were everywhere along the river bank. Having noticed all of these, I reckoned the river would be receding at dusk, which was why there were so many different shapes and forms of ice. I put my slipper on, going into the main stream of the river. I found there were at least three different courses of the river, the thickness of the surface ice varied and the river water reached above my knees. I sighed there would be no way back once I crossed this river. There are many ways in one's life too, you can only take it once and you will no long have the courage to repeat it.I pushed the bike crossing the river. Some of the ice was a bit soft, jamming the tyres so that I had to use my feet to break them first. Some of the ice was a bit thick but with half-melted underneath, sticking the the bike completely, some of the ice was half-water half-ice with a sandy riverbed, which was really hard to pass. I had to remove all of the panniers at the last stage of the crossing. I spent the whole four hours to cross the river, my legs got many bloody cuts. At 6pm, the surface ice was almost disappeared completely, the river level rapidly rising to a chaotic status. I thought if I hesitated a little bit at that time, I could not have the courage to cross this river under such circumstances. The river bank was unimaginably sandy and was quite steep. I had to unloaded the panniers again to reach the top of the bank. By the time of sunset, the weather became exceptionally good. The sunlight from the descending sun, the blue sky, the faint moon, .... I liked such a colorful and peaceful Chang Tang and very much enjoyed my camp and myself bathed in such beautiful colour.The ice like this was very thin and suspended, far away from the main stemHard surface with half-melted underneath, the soft sand at the botton was most scaryThe ice like this could easily jam the wheels, hard to get it outI had to unload the panniersChaotic water and terrible hails turned up in no timeThe Chang Tang at the moment liked it used to be,a mixture of cold and warm tones under the golden setting sun Day 8 (April 27), 14.6km, Camping 5112mLast night, I forgot to bring in the odometer, which was out of order due to the coldness in midnight. Since then I used GPS to check the mileage. The digital thermometer was no longer working. I had to use mercury thermometer to collect data. Night temperatures were basically between –15℃—–20℃ while the temperature inside my tent was about –10℃. The advantage of the integrated tent was that it limited the ventilation so to keep warm inside. However, it got clearly disadvantage of heavy condensation and dew. Every morning, there was plenty of frost inside the tent so that I had to put my hood on First Before fully getting dressed. The winds in Chang Tang finally became consistent with the pattern I had researched the other day no or very tiny wind in the morning, strong wind started after 2pm, and then at around 8pm its strength was reduced again. The accuracy of this prediction was about 80%.The road was very bad today. I walked whole afternoon in an ancient riverbed and it was so difficult that I had to use all of my strengths to move a small step forward and then to stop to breath, slower than a snail. After five hours' struggling, my eyes got wet when I saw the grassy river bank. Finally! The nightmare was over.Cold and clear morningHeavy morning condensation in the interior, a lot of frost to clearSuch dawning sunlight indicated a cloudy day ahead Day 9 (April 28), 18km, 5072mIn the morning I entered a range of sandy roads which were so terrible. The solar panel specially designed for GPS got short circuited. After checking it was found to be the diode got damaged. Luckily I got a replacement. Because the GPS was exclusively supplied by a solar panel so that it was no longer a problem for the power supplement of GPS. In a period of 70 days, I did replace the battery once, which saved me a lot of alkaline batteries. I did have another solar panel of 5.4 W which was used specifically for 7.5V Camera, DV and other digital facilities. Unlike water, I had never been short of power.At 7pm in the evening, I arrived at Pur Co. The surface of this lake was very odd the ice by the river bank rose and the river bank was broken, I reckoned that was due to the strong winds. The ice there was mingled with something yellow, could be the stain of alkali. There were many wild yaks on the other side of the lake. There could be two brown bears but I could not be for certain. On the east side of the lake, there was a peninsula leading to the centre of the lake. I camped just opposite to the peninsula. At night , I smashed the ice to get drinking water, which tasted alkali. For the first time I cooked the cereals, which was brought completely by accident. This was just because I found there was a little bit of extra space when I was in Nagri packing the stuff for this journey so that I bought two packs of cereals. It tasted disgusting, probably there was too much alkali in the water. I threw away half of it. Later I realised that probably I subconsciously felt that the provisions was so heavy. I would rather make it lighter at any cost.Dry all my stuff in the morning sun, a routine matterA faint dusk in Pur CoThe river bank pushed up by ice and opened like zipper by gustsThe pushed up surface of the iceThe place where I got my drinking water, a thin layer of ice behind the ablation corns The moment just before sun set, glittering Pur Co, nothing was the same差点儿没找到俺自己的帖子，原来变色了。多谢各位鼓励。 Day 10 (April 29), 16km, Camping 5141mIn the morning, I walked around the north bank of the Pur Co， where it were continuous ups and downs sprinkled with light yellow sprouts across the sparse grassland. The wild yaks clustered into small groups. All of a sudden, there was a group of five of them running towards me, blowing a huge cloud of dust with the power of thunderbolts,I believed that anyone who did not know the characters of the wild yaks must be frightened to death under such circumstances. The fact was the wild yaks in groups never injured people. Rushing to you just to show you its territory. When they approached people at certain distance, they would turn sharply and run away, and then stopped somewhere high to stare at you. You can not imagine that the wild yaks were very cautious animals compared with its almost one ton of weight. Their first reaction, when meeting people, was to raise their tails, the front hooves rubbing against the ground, the horns pointing forward, the eyes redden, and the long body hair shaking, all of which showed their determination to fight.This was the warning sign that you should retreat. However, you should realise that this was only a gesture that they were afraid of you and wanted to scare you away. The thing was that if you were not afraid of them and moved forward, they would run away in no time. There were only some mad yaks attacking people, which was really rare to happen. In Chang Tang, an experienced driver know that it is very dangerous to pass directly from two or three lonely wild yaks. They always tried to avoid confronting them directly. If this was not possible, they would lit a cigarette, smoking, to wait until the yaks walked away themselves. This was because the wild yaks really could attack vehicles, which was not completely rumors. I once asked them why I had not been attacked. They told me that because my bike was so small they would not be bothered to attack it. My own experience was that approaching a wild yak very slowly, do not look into its eyes, and ignored what it was doing. As long as it moved forward a little bit, just stop and give the yaks a little bit of time to think. Because if you forced the yak, it could be themost dangerous animal in the world and nothing could stop them killing. Even a gunshot could not kill it but only left a small hole in its skin. In the past, the nomads living near this land would use yaks' skin as chopping board which was very much endurable. At noon, I lost my balacLAVA, which was brand new and I had never used it once. I could not be bothered to go back tofind it. This resulted in that I had to have my fleece hat day and night in the rest of my journey, which did not provide fully protection from the sun in the plateau. But somehow I was all right, perhaps because my skin is similar to those of yaks, lol. At around half past one, I found a deserted Jeep, upside down. I felt it could be there for years and it could be the vehicle of someillegal HUNTERs. Nowadays, we have wildlife conservation reserves in Chang Tang and the animals here are well protected. However, some people kills the wild yaks to sell them as the domestic yak's meat. In general, it is worth 10,000 Chinese yuans for a single wild yak. Therefore many people take the risk to make money. They often enter the unpopulated areas to hunt and their activities can reach 200 km in diameter. This is why the wild yaks in the deep wilderness are less afraid of people than thoseat the boundaries of the Chang Tang region.There once happened that a wild yak mother revenged its baby's murder in the Altun mountains. Its horns pierced the killer's chest and held his body over its head for more than ten days, which was very touching.Around 3pm, I walked out of the Pur basin. The next point was Hong Shan Daban and then it was the Yueya Hu by the Toze Gangri. At this time I found a vehicle track from south to north. I checked over but could not find the way where they had gone. I took my map, GPS, and compass, climbing up a small hill to estimate the location of Hong Shan Daban. The mountain was very round and it was hard to find the mountain pass. After determining the location of the Daban, I moved straightforward. When I passed a messy grassland, I saw something that I was reluctant to see more than hundreds of wild yaks' head scattered all over, which was definitely the scene of the illegal hunting. After that it was a very long ancient river bed with soft sand slowly rising until the foot of the mountain.There are some spines on the surface of the tongues of wild yaks, which are used by nomads in this area as combs. They use them from their teens to the time when their hair becomes silver.The deserted Jeep, could be left by illegal hunters years agoThe slaughtered wild yaks with the wheel size heads. Some of the skulls were chopped into half. Why was that? Could be taken away for making combs?My camp at the foot of the Daban underthe lingering golden rays of the setting sun. Tomorrow's weather must be wonderful, I reckoned Day 11(April 30)， 20.4km, Camping 5120mThe surface of the road leading to Hong Shan Daban was very hard, most of them were small rocks, sort of gravels, plus a quite long downhill slope, I pushed my bike more than 20km for the first time after Luxing Hu. The mountain pass was quite flat, just like a broad ridge, it was 5256m above the sea level. Upon arriving at the pass, Toze Gangri of 6356m was in my sight clearly, very much round and there was no back bone like normal snow covered mountains. Most of the snow mountains in Chang Tang looked like this probably it was due to the geological movements. There were quite a few chirus or Tibetan antelopes in the valley but I was not interested in this kind of animals anymore after I witnessed a large scale of migration of such animals last year elsewhere.The herbivorous animals here are very quick to reach its original size of the population, such as wild yaks, chirus, Tibetan gazelle, pika, and marmot. When you go into the depths of the Chang Tang, you could hardly be surpised by the sudden appearance of the chirus because they are so common in here. At this time of year, the chirus have already male-female parted. You could see many pregnant female chirus but hardly see any males. According to recent research, Zonag Co is not the only lake for breeding. There are at least four of them in the whole Chang Tang. Zonag Co, Tuzi Hu, Heishi Beihu, and another lake I can not remember. I think there must be more than four of them and most of the populations do not migrant long way like most people used to think. They generally migrant from south to north between Central Mountains and Kunlun Mountains.The chirus looks very timid but are very curious about outside world. They are not really afraid of people, particularly in the depth of the Chang Tang. The nearest distance we can approach is about 30m. They just stare at you calmly and think who you are and why you move so slow. They would run in front of you. Look like they are afraid of you but the fact is they are playing with you. A man's own character shapes his fortune. This is of course suit for animals too. The chirus are the typical one. They have a super speed and a pair of sharp antlers. If they are crazy, three of them work together could easily kill a wolf. But as you might have known, their antlers are just for fighting to mate with females.Down the Daban there was a very steep and straight road, I tried to ride the bicycle but ended up with falling over. The front rack came loose and one of the pannier flew into valley. The foot of the mountain was the Yueya Hu covered by ice, which was alake full of heavy metal elements. Along the lake bank there were many stark rocks very much weathered, lining up just like castles or houses. This made me stop to investigate what they were from time to time, I did understand they were just rocks though but they were so real like the figures of real people. On of them even made me hide in a ditch, observing them again and again using my binoculars. There were also many black volcanic rocks. All in all, the features of this area were really unusual.Passed over the Yueya Hu, it was an endless ancient lake bed. What my GPS showed was this area was a big lake like tentacles. I looked around, it was endless wilderness without a piece of ice and a drop of water. Roughly, I estimated this lake bed was about 1200 square meters. I had to tell you that Chang Tang was a place where there was no high-resolution map. The marks in the map often were some kind of memory. Just like this ancient lake bed under my feet, may be it was full of water a few years ago. Who knows. Pushing the bike in such an endless lake bed was very easy to get lost. My mind was in a chaotic status too.The migration of the animals, photo taken last year The road rising up to the Daban, full of gravels, very hard, ideal for pushing your bikeThe Yueya Hu gazed at by the round and smooth Toze Gangri. At a glimpse, could you tell which was mountain, which was cloud?Ancient lake bed. The white stains were the alkali, look like ice. About wildlife (part 1)Declaration Personal experience for reference onlyDangerous wild animals and their threats to human beings are a ever-LASTING subject for those backpackers travelling in the wild.In Chang Tang, for example, there are two kinds of deadly animals, one is wolves and the other is brawn bears. As substitutes, wild yaks and crows might be dangerous to you in some circumstances that I will come back to this a little bit later on. As for how to protect yourself against these dangerous animals, I think the primary point is you do not try to hurt them because the emotions of human and animals are same instinctively. [Wolves]Throughout my journey, I met wolves a total of seven times, in which I confronted them five times. As you might have known that wolves have become more and more solitary animals, it is very rare they live in a large group nowadays. Please allow me off the point a little bit and talk about the ecological problems in Chang Tang. The problem is now not the decrease of the number of the chirus but the imbalance of the whole food chain, more specifically, the number of the animals on the higher trophic levels of the food chain has not yet reached its ideal level which results in this kind of imbalance. Particularly, the pikas and the marmots who have lost their predators rapidly expanse which results in the desertification of Chang Tang. As early as the middle of last century, wolves were the dominant predators in the vast wilderness. They became a threat not only to other preys but also nomads pasturing in this land. Therefore, the then government called on people to cull back the population of the wolves in Chang Tang, which resulted in the current situation directly. The last official record about wolves attacking humans was around 1970s, which happened in Bamaoqiongzong. A team of secientists was surrounded by a group of wolves and they had to shoot them using guns. Of course, at present in Chang Tang, wolves are absolutely lonely.In this traverse, the first time I encountered a pair of wolves, one of them staying in front of me pretending to attack me while the other staying behind me. This is the standard attacking strategy of wolves. First, you should not be nervous which can be easily detected by the predators. Second, you should not retreat even an inch because this means you are the prey rather than the predator. Do not make any large movement, of course you could take a picture if you feel safe to do so. You must look into its eyes for a few minutes or even half an hour. When the wolves can not work out who you are and consider you are not posing any danger to them, then they will leave. You should remember that wolves in this land do not lack of food and it is much easy for them to catch a pika than a human. Even if being hungry, they would evalsuate how easy to get you done, What you need to do is to show them that you are not interested in them and you are not afraid of them at all, let alone to show your ID card to them. As for the wolves family, really, I have not heard for ages. If you really have an encounter with them and they have no other choice, then it definitely depends on your forture. In fact, for so many year, it has been very rare to happen that wolves kill human. But the rumours are still there, in particular, the road connecting Xinjiang and Tibet.The nearest encounter with a wolf throughout my journey, no conflict at all[Brown Bears]Brown bears are real dangerous animals to human. Every year there are some accidents happened in some regions of Xinjiang on the north side of Kunkun Mountains and steppes in Northern Tibet. More than that the bears could attack your house, smash your windows, and eat your sheep. Therefore, in Northern Tibet some local councils give subsidies to the pastorarists for compensating the losses due to the bears because they are not allow to fight back and kill the bears except their lives are in great danger. Once there was a nomad taught me a method to protect yourself from bears. He told me to pick up a stick to feed the bear and the bear thinks the stick is your hand which tastes disgusting. So the bear would leave. It was so funny but the reality is to find a stick in this vast wilderness is just like you win the lottery.Bears are omonivorous animal who are generally not interested in human flesh. You can find that in most of accidents, the bears did not eat any of the human flesh rather they just smashed them for kind of fun that we could not understand. For the reason why bears kill human, one explanation is the conflict between human and wildlife in this extreme ecological environment. The nomads invade the habitats of the bears, which results in these conflicts. On the other hand, it might be because bears have quite high IQ so that they think it is much easy to kill a sheep in the cote rather than to kill a pika in the wild.I have met bears five times in my traverse, in two cases we were very close to each other. I had even walked with one of them for quite a while, just like we had a date for a walk. The fact is it is not that terrible like you might imagine. The same rules for dealing with wolves apply to bears. Never provoke dangerous animals. A bear can run at a speed of 40km/h, do you think you can compete this in a highland 5,000m above sea level?However, there is a situation where it is really dangerous, that is the encounter. It is not easy to control your instinctive reaction to the external dangers. Last year once I turned around a hill, there was a bear just in front of me. The bear of course was frightened by me with its front legs holding up, waving in the air and roaring. At that time I sat on the ground, ignoring it. The bear then left in a few minutes. Chang Tang is a vast land so that this is not that easy to happen. But if it does happen, really only God can bless you.The nearest encounter with a bear throughout my journey. This bear disappeared in a herd of wild yaks, which I had tried hard to spot, really weird About wildlife (part 2)Declaration personal experience for reference only.[Wild Yaks]I have talked about quite a few, like in the post of Day10. I will no longer talk about it.This was the funniest encounter with a solitary wild yak, who did not warn me. If I sat down, it sat down too. If I moved forward, it stopped. Could not imagine what it was thinking about.[Crows]Crows are dangerous only when you fall unconscious in the wilderness. Of course they will be the first to taste your flesh in that case. Unlike their cousinsliving in urban areas, the crows in Chang Tang have a larger body like eagles. When they fly over your head, you could feel like it is a piece of cloud. They are scavengers but like fresh meat too. It once happened that a baby was killed by crows relentlessly, let alone the lambs got killed by them. Once a nomad asked me for fireworks to scare the crows away. (They are sacred birds not to be killed by human)It is easy to defend yourself against crows, that is to keep fighting, never fall in the wilderness.A short break attracted the crows. Of course, they were miscalculating this time, photo taken last year[Strategies Adopted]At the time when I met the four soldiers in Jieshan Daban, they said there were many dangerous animals in the Northern Tibet and asked me if I had brought a shotgun. I think if they knew that I would enter Chang Tang they would definitely check if I really have a shotgun. The so-called defence facilities I brought with me were the fireworks and pepper spray. I had never used them. The fireworks were ruined and thrown away when I crossed a river and I had never opened the pepper spray. I even had never thought about this when camping in the night. The reason was I did not feel the needs. During the day time whenever I met any animals I had never touched the knife I had brought. I did not have anything to defend myself when I walked out to investigate the route. The Chang Tang is really a vast area so as to be very easy to detect anything strange.By the way, you'd better to avoid mating season's animals because even tamed rabbits could be aggressive in mating season.The thing is even if you have a gun, it is not very much helpful when bears attack you. Therefore, your attitude is most important.I can tell you something. Dogs are more dangerous than these wild animals. I had been chased by Tibetan dogs, pounced on by dogs in mating season, also besieged by a group of dogs. I really feel it is more useful to know how to defend a dog.Declaration again The above experience is from Chang Tang only. Of course, the more you prepared, the better. Day 12 (May 1), 23.8km, Camping 5117mToday was May 1 -- the Labour Day, I had been walking in some lake area marked in the map but clearly dried up. The lake basin was flat and hard so that I even pushed my bike more than 20km. Let it be the special treat for my May Day. After midday it became cloudy with growing winds. Since the Yueya Hu that I passed yesterday, there were no big lakes until Yanghu Co (My route would be between Jianshui Hu and Bairab Co), there was even no light alkaline water to drink so I had to pay extra attention not to miss any possible drinking water supply to fill up my water bag. There were a few very small lakes but all were alkaline puddles which was very shallow, whose depth was no more than the length of a half-finger. These puddles were covered with a hard shell of the mixture of salt and ice which smelled stinking and decaying when getting closer, must be toxic water I supposed. On the shore of this type of small lakes it was muddy soil and very hard to get closer.There was no sign of tundra at all.It was almost half past six when I found some snow corns in a ditch, which was the only drinking water supply of the day. There was a thin layer of melted ice on the surface of the ground near the snow corn, which was very hard to collect and was contaminated by the alkali. The snow corn was the yet melted thick snow, which was shaped like a corn by wind. The snow was quite hard and dry,porous like ice. I crushed a few snow corns, putting them into the water bag.They would be my drinking water tonight. These snow corns were the only one in today's wilderness, I reckoned the reason why they were not melted like others was the soil underneath contained large amount of ice blocks which acted as a freezer.Very strong gale in the night, it was hard to bear the sound of the vibration of the tent. Small single tent was good in the sense that it would not be blown away as long as you stayed inside. But you had to be very careful to set up the tent. I once did not pay much attention when doing so, the tent was blown away by winds, and rolling over like a Giant lantern ... I ran after it, got it back, and was exhausted. In general, it is not possible to fix the tent completely using tent pegs because they were not very much effective like large tents. It was snowing around 23 o'clock, the winds were howling from north,then the falling snow flakes landed on my tent quietly, I finally felt at peace and fell asleep. The flat ancient lake basin, assisting me walking more than 20kmSmall lake en route, toxic waterSnow corns, the only drinking water supply today Day 13 (May 2), 0km, Camping 5117mWaking up in the morning and opening the tent, the heavy snow outside must be sent by the God to force me have a break for the May Day. After lying in for a while, getting up and walking on the snowy ground out I went to have a look around. As first sight there were a herd of chirus. They were plainly to be spotted because they looked like a clear black straight line in the while snow. I returned to get my camera and then followed them to take some pictures. But they were very much alert and kept a quite long distance from me. I felt they were a group of pregnant females, instinctively protecting themselves from any potential harm. I was no longer short of water, the snow gave me a precious supply of drinking water. The problem was that they were very petrol consuming. I tool 8.6 litre of petrol and the oil stove was Duola's MSR. The pot was of 1.5 litre, mainly for boiling water. After several days' experiments, I found that the liquid water needed 16mins and 14-15mins to boil in the morning and evening, respectively. For ice, it would take 35-40mins while for snow it took 45-50mins. Melting snow was a very time and petrol consuming process so if I had a choice between snow and light alkaline water, most of time I would go with the latter. Lying inside the tent, listening to musics,I smoked a cigarette while gazing at the more and more chirus around me. Because it was very cold I had been wearing my shoes all the time. Now I just put my bare feet under the warm sun for some fresh air. I found three cuts in my hands and one in my sole. The cuts were about 4cm in length, looked terrible but it was actually all right really. Half of my toes were injured by to much walking, quite painful. I fetched my medicine bag and found I only got four patches of plasters, a serious mistake. One of the cuts in my hand had never been cured until I was out of this desolate land so as to feel like this finger would drop from my hand at any time. The others quickly recovered in a few days then new cuts appeared elsewhere. This process occurred periodically. I felt that it was somewhat related to the cold, dry weather and the lack of vitamins. The snow rapidly disappeared, which is unique phenomenon in Chang Tang. Because of the low air humidity and the high radiation from the sun, the snow was evaporating very fast, much quicker than the melting speed. Owing to this, the ground was generally still dry after the snow disappeared. In most cases, it would be only 2/5 left in the afternoon around 2 to 3 o'clock and small patches of ground could be seen. It would be completely all right for walking the next day. 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([]
