2011年的6月6日,正值传统的端午节,友人的西部助学计划让我又一次走进西部。徐州—武威,这条铁路线已经走了N次,从06年暑假起,我就与西部结了缘,而这次的西行其意义不同于以往的旅行,当再次踏上西去的列车时,我的心有些不平静,列车一直往西,人在车上,而心已远去。。。 5月,接到影友文心电话,说有个企业家想到西部助学,问我是否能帮忙联系一个地方。听到此消息后我非常高兴,几年的西部行走让我对西部的生存状况与教育状况有了大概的了解,生存环境的恶劣及生活的贫困,使得西部的孩子们在教育上有很大的缺失,有企业家愿意为西部的教育投资,这是件天大的好事,友人又是个教育专家,教育家与企业家在教育上携手,堪称天作之合。我二话不说,当即答应友人帮他联系地点,作为一个在教育行业就职的旅者,这件事责无旁贷。遂按照企业家的要求帮忙联系助学地点,最终初步定在甘肃天祝藏族自治县。于是,在一个六六大顺的日子里,为了一个共同的目和心愿,启程前往天祝。 二十四小时的长途旅行,向日葵色板官方一行4人于6月7日下午230到达了武威。天祝县副县长与教育局得知此消息后,非常高兴,亲自到车站迎接,原计划下车后租车直达考察学校的计划彻底给打乱了,这份盛情让向日葵色板官方一行四人颇感意外,同时又非常感动,八字还没一撇,则受到如此接待,向日葵色板官方何以担当啊。 既然县上已经安排,恭敬不如从命,遂坐上副县长的车驱车直奔考察学校。 甘肃我曾经多次路过,去年十一长假期间,我和朋友也曾专程去张掖看丹霞。虽然甘肃是个严重缺水的省份,但那里的地貌却让这个干旱的省份有着非常壮美的风景。 天祝藏族自治县位于甘肃省武威市东南部。境内兰新铁路、312国道纵贯南北。山脉与交通线交汇的乌鞘岭是地扼东西的通道,势控河西的咽喉,地势险要,素有“河西走廊门户”之称。 全县辖域面积7149平方公里,居住着藏、土、汉等16个民族,共22.14万人。境内群山环抱,峰峦叠嶂,有郁郁葱葱的苍茫林海,终年积雪的雪山大川和碧草如茵的广阔草原及大小10多条河流。海拔最高4874米,最低2050米,属大陆性高原气候,空气清新,环境优美,素有“高原金盆”之称。 虽然我走过我国的五大藏区,甘肃甘南藏区之前我走过二次,而这个天祝藏区我还是第一次来过。 原以为这里只有黄沙与山丘,没想到车到深山,眼前居然出现了这么一大片碧绿的湖水,这让我很兴奋,随即要求师傅停车,下车拍照。 这是天祝县的一个人工水库,由于这里严重缺水,天祝县及周边县则利用地势修建了一些这样的蓄水库,当地民众也就靠着这些水库维持生存。 从水库的蓄水量上看,今年是个严重干旱年,水库的水位明显在降低。 边缘许多地方早已干涸,可以看出这点蓄水量远远满足不了当地民众的用水需求,非常明显,缺水是当地农业发展的最大“瓶颈”。 也正是因为了解这个情况,所以当看到这个水库时我才异常兴奋的让师傅停了车,水是生命之源,有了水,才能有发展的可能,而西部贫困的主要原因是因为环境的影响所造成的。 沿着进山的路,车行两个多小时后,向日葵色板官方到达了要考察的学校——天祝旦马乡初级中学。 学校提前得知了消息,车到了学校门口,校长和老师们全部来到校门口迎接,县长按照藏族的礼仪亲自给我们献上了哈达,而且是上面绘着藏地佛教八宝图的黄色哈达。一般情况下给客人献上的是白色哈达,而这种黄色的带有佛教八宝图的哈达只在寺庙里用,当县长把这条哈达搭在我的胸前时,我感动的不知说什么才好,因为我知道这条哈达的含义与“分量”。一个普通的旅者,何德何能,能接受这样的哈达。 走进校门后,友人、企业家及杨树林助学创办者就由县长、教育局分管资助的主任及学校校长等陪同参观校舍。而我则“自作主张”的在校园里用相机进行“走访”。作为一个旅者、一个影者,用相机记录行走中的所见、所闻、所感、所悟是我的行摄“目”。能有机会走进这边远藏区的学校,对我来说是个非常难得的机会,我要利用每个机会记录下每个地方带给我的所见所闻。 旦马学校位于一个四面环山的小小盆地里,四面都被山所包围,只有一条出山的路通往武威和天祝县城。学校的校舍大多数是平房,而且有新有旧,由此看出,这所学校的建设也是在不断的发展之中。虽然学校处在深山里,还是建设了高大的教学楼。在西部山区,一看到红砖房、楼房和飘扬的五星红旗,多半就是学校了,校舍建设在西部山区还是比较重视的。从校园及校舍上看,旦马学校还是比较有规模的一个学校。 学校的“基础硬件”设施在西部算是很不错的。旦马学校校园给我印象最深的是教学楼上那十个大字:人人能发展,个个有希望。孩子就如小小树苗,个个都是可塑之才,成才与否不在于孩子,而在于教育。教育工作者能有此理念,孩子们就有希望了。 由于这里是牧区,山里的牧民住的十分分散,孩子们读书都离家比较远,没法走读,有的孩子周末回家需要走三个小时的山路才能到家,因此基本上孩子从读小学起就住校,因此,这里的小学也有宿舍。一般情况下,条件较差的学校两个孩子一张床,有的学校三个孩子一张床。正是由于在这样的状况下读书,孩子们的自理能力都很强,日常生活基本全由自己打理,当然,在山里学校做老师的,在教学的同时还要照管孩子们的日常起居,既是老师,又是家长,这就是西部山区学校的“特点”。 这些是小学二年级的孩子们,旦马学校原本小学和初中是分开的,由于小学校舍建在山脚下,近来山体出现了滑坡,校舍成了危房,学校紧急决定将小学的孩子们集中到了中学的教学楼里,宿舍不够,便将孩子们的教室与宿舍合二为一,于是,孩子们学习和生活的场所便集中在了这里。从床上的铺盖看,这间房里的孩子是每一张双层床上住6个孩子。虽然条件不太好,可孩子们能在这里安心读书,他们还是非常非常的高兴。 即使这样,学校的宿舍还是不够用,学校便临时将学生餐厅腾出来做了宿舍,不管用什么办法,总要解决孩子们的生活问。细心的驴友们可以注意到,就是这样,这间房里也是4个孩子睡一张双层床。 这是学校的食堂,阿姨正在为孩子们准备晚餐。厨房一角,从这里可以看出,尽管处在山区,学校食堂的卫生状况还是不错的。 食堂的用具基本都是不锈钢的,食堂里有两个师傅在工作,一个在切菜,一个在用机器压面。原以为藏地的学校不太注意卫生,从这里看,卫生状况还真的不算差,这点让人感到欣慰。看过食堂,我又回到了教学楼,想看看孩子们的教室和学习环境。从教室内的环境看,学校的校舍是新建的教学楼,而桌凳还是用的以前的,说明这个教学楼新建不久。 中小学的紧急合并让这所学校的教室也陡然紧张起来,教师们便将办公室腾出来给孩子们做了教室,虽然有点挤,但至少能保证让孩子们正常上课了。 看到孩子们能在这样的教室里上课,作为一个曾经生长在乡下的我,心里真的挺高兴的,比我当年读书的学校条件要好多了,当然这之间有了40多年的时间差。([]
前言 从西藏回来已经是第六天了,每晚我静静地守在电脑前,阿里的美景一遍遍从我脑海闪过,我确信自己无法敲出来一个字,我不是作家,不知道该如何来描述这西藏大北线。资料认真查过,相关美文仔细看过,都迥异于我对西藏的理解,该怎样去描述······? 一闭上眼,就仿佛置身于大北线上那种无法形容的辽阔,无法名状的孤寂,那种大美······他们溶进我的血液里,我象喝了酒一样-----醉了! 就像当年一夜之间爱上户外一样,没有什么理由,爱上西藏,是在走过大北线之后,同样也没什么理由,我想那应该是一种心灵的呼唤吧!我属于盲从一族,只有在“从”了之后,才慢慢品出一点点的味道,回味他的香醇。 大北线的路上,我经常受到龙老大的教导,不知天文,不熟地理,中国地图上除了知道山西的图形像个蚕蛹不会搞错外,其他省份一概迷茫的一塌糊涂。每每龙老大给我恶补地理知识的时候就像老道的厨子报菜名一样如数家珍:这是什么什么川,那是什么什么河,终了,我还是一头雾水,他就会恨铁不成钢地戳着我的笨脑壳叹息:你呀你~~!学那点东西,全还给老师了!我也恨不得把龙老大脑子里那些个上知天文下知地理的脑组织抠出来塞进自己的笨脑壳里。我想,我脑子里总不会都是浆糊吧! 几天前,我到过天堂,这一点,我是肯定的······ 7月23日,进藏前综合症 一晚上似睡非睡。530,地球人全在睡觉,我却摸到卫生间里刷完牙,又爬回床上,女儿睡的正酣,丝毫不觉。600,又爬起来,洗脸,再把出行用的东西照单查一遍,确定没有遗漏,回到床上躺着,刚闭上眼,又想起一件事,再溜下床,到阳台上把家里所有的花挨个浇了一遍,这才折回卧室躺倒,一抬眼,老公倚在房门口,满脸疑惑的看着我:你这一大早跟只耗子一样窜来窜去,还让不让别人睡了?不就是去个西藏麽,至于吗?!我懒得和他辩解,翻个身,睁着眼睛,思考着我的西藏之行,毫无睡意。 一上午的时间,我把背包里的东西翻腾了一十八遍,弄得满客厅都是,反反复复问歪躺在沙发上看电视的老公,这个东东用不用带,那个东东能不能派上用场?他有一声没一声,毫无诚意地随意哼着。问也是白问!我恨得牙根痒痒,哪天非休了你不可!1100老公出门买了几袋饺子,正要下锅,我问他啥牌子的,他说是“滚蛋”牌的,吃完滚蛋!我笑喷!滚蛋牌的?明明是“思念”牌的吗! 吃完饺子,时间还早,说好了中午120火车站集合,这时间咋就和停住了一样呢?我在一秒一秒的数着,不过,一想到马上就可以肆意享受十五天的自由生活,我就禁不住心花怒放!好不容易挨到110,开拔!我迫不及待的上包,老公说,快走吧!快走吧!你再不走,我就神经了!! 到了车站,卸下我和我的大背包,老公便迫不及待的毫无留恋的快乐的扬长而去!去享受他十几天没我存在的自由生活-----撂下一句:彻底给点自由,没什么事别打电话啊,贵巴巴的! -------我崩溃! 尽管我的背包减了又减,还是大的惊人,一看到堆在火车站前亲亲儿的兄弟姐妹们,我就知足了,他们都是重装备双包!还长枪短炮挂了满肩。专员来相送,提了个二十斤重的大西瓜,让向日葵色板官方路上解渴,真是万分感谢! 龙老大,上校,大夫,智老师(游侠百合),呆宝宝,郭队,采风,还有送行的阿呆,我,不丁姗姗来迟,屁股后面还跟着送行的胖子,一个都不能少!全到齐了。 呆呆送宝宝,胖子送不丁,送的人儿脸上也见不到一点点恋恋不舍,反而挂着急不可待的笑容,天哪!又是两个重获自由的家伙! 候车室,由于激动过度,在龙老大的英明决定下亲自指挥失误,一干人马还没出太原就侯错了车,差点上了相反方向的车次。下午220太原到北京的D2010次动车开始检票,最怕出门把我丢了,紧紧跟上前面两头驴,跟着跟着,不对呀!咋嘴里叽里咕噜冒出来的是英语呀!抬眼一看,跟错了,是两头美国背包驴!一回头,龙老大和亲亲儿的兄弟姐妹都泰然自若地坐在原地没动窝呢!我这是怎么了?出师不利呀!我觉得还是肾上腺素惹得祸。 在家,愁坏了老公 侯车室里,愁坏了龙老大 动车上,愁坏了不丁! “换坐位!换坐位!上校咱俩换换坐儿行不行?越野反了!还没到西藏就高反了”不丁恳切的求着前排的上校,上校笑笑没搭理她,龙队悠悠的看看腕上的海拔表“现在海拔是-80,是低反。 我兴奋的笑神经不可名状发挥着巨大作用,有一句没一句的说着毫不着调的话,折磨着自己,也折磨着身边每一个人哭笑不得。下午四点多,我终于安静下来迷迷糊糊的睡着了,一睁眼,北京到了。 二丫接站,把向日葵色板官方幸福了个稀里哗啦,嘻嘻!有人给拎包,有人给安排饭饭,此时大夫和智老师像两只蜗牛背着重重的壳赶来汇合,一个目的,为了蹭饭呗!嗯,不错丫!丫不错!-----向日葵色板官方很受用哦,一点也不内疚,向日葵色板官方已经习惯了劫富济贫,习惯了,二丫也习惯被黑色会的老老小小打劫,这是一件很幸福的事业呦。北京西旁不远处的李先生牛肉面吃了个舒坦,吃完幸福坐着聊,店家捧出好茶泡上,喝着!坐等晚上九点,拥别可爱的丫!------坐上火车去拉萨! 北京到拉萨,九张硬卧,三上,三中,三下。不在同一车厢,经过近一个小时的折腾换铺,最终才尘埃落定,六人换到了同一包厢,布丁,郭队,上校在隔过去的包箱。一行九人,我最瘦小,这可是吃了天大的亏!大夫一上车不由分说把我扔上了三楼,还有年龄最小不占优势的不丁,宝宝。我撅着嘴抗议,无效!没想到,在这个无比狭小的空间,我一下就被囚禁了三天̶6;•••;•R26; 兴奋了一整天,当晚,在对面三层铺上呆宝宝悉悉索索的鼓捣声中我睡着了,半夜又迷迷糊糊的醒来,发现车停了,已经习惯了列车晃荡荡的摇着睡,真是郁闷!低头问老大,说到了河北高邑了,不管它,接着睡。7月24日,无可奈何的铁路线 大早醒来,窗外一瞄,吓了一跳!硕大的站牌赫然写着----河北高邑,敢情这火车自打停了一步没挪!!问大夫,向日葵色板官方泥石流了!向日葵色板官方还没出河北。车厢里很闷,我的心也很闷•••;•;R26;R26;一整天的时间,走走停停,外面风景很烂,懒得去看。吃饭,睡觉,憋的厉害了就像猴子一样荡下一楼走走,车厢里挪到哪都是挨肩擦背的人。到了晚上,车又哼哼唧唧停在宝鸡,跑去问列车员,是山洪冲垮了铁路桥,正在抢修,这一停就是十几个小时。在滞留的共一十八个小时里,人类绝对不会像低智商的猴子那样上窜下跳,而是自得其乐,扎堆闲聊,打扑克,听教授级的人物讲人生,讲社会学,串门听邻家母女讲成长的故事,反正人们是一刻也没有浪费时间,向日葵色板官方的车厢里也聊的不亦乐乎,爆笑声不断!而且座位特别紧张,你不刻意占座位,就只有把在门口听的份了。7月25日福祸相依,大美就在眼前 龙老大总是戳我的脑门儿时有原因的,说我对山西那块蚕蛹比较熟悉,我还真有点惭愧,准确点说,我是一个方向感差到极点的人,曾经好几次在家门口方圆一公里之内迷路过N回,有一次还电话叫了救援,后被传为笑谈。其实,火车是穿过什么省什么市,什么地区,到达我知道的地名,我是真的一概不知。 上午850,火车到达天水,离兰州不远了,窗外的景色瑞丽悦目起来,渐渐呈现出藏区前的高原地貌,人们纷纷去取相机,大夫从行李架上取了相机下来,踩了下面布丁的脚趾,大夫没道歉,还文绉绉的告诉布丁,你的脚太大了,我帮你修理成三寸金莲。简直没天理了!布丁气的哇哇大叫,让智老师管管她丈夫。 火车两旁大片大片金黄的油菜花,大片大片浪漫紫的薰衣草,大片大片绿色的麦田,大片大片湛蓝的天空,星星点点的马群,偶而红顶白墙的矮屋,在眼前闪过,远处海天一色的青海湖上白白的云朵,形成美丽无比的调色板,激起车厢里这群光影美景的痴迷者一声声惊呼,还有那光线!阳光透过纯净的空气,穿过白云的缝隙流泻在这明快的土地上,影一片,晴一片,景色十分旖旎!随着火车的行进,聚集的内地村落渐渐地消失,到处是散居的红房顶和帐篷,金黄和绿色多起来,牦牛多起来,经幡多起来,第一次亲眼看到经幡,向日葵色板官方和西藏的距离在逐渐缩短,西藏的气息越来越浓,我眼里竟有一点点湿润!别人在忙着咔咔嚓嚓的记录美景,我却望着车窗外发呆。火车上拍的麦田 7月26日 淡定,淡定 早上六点,到达安多,望望窗外,叫起其他人,一下全惊呆了,云和山巅正在瞬息万变着,人们大呼小叫的抢着自己的单反,长焦,广角,一阵骚乱,向日葵色板官方这节车厢全沸腾了,惊得我不知道该干什么了,人们从我身旁挤来撞去,宝宝,智老师,采风,大夫,老大撞得我站不住脚,我只有迅速攀上三楼躲起来,真不知道该怎么形容这群疯子!两个钟头后我才溜下来,一低头看见智老师一只脚趿拉着一只宝宝的拖鞋,另一只光着脚。再看宝宝的脚上,更可笑!一只脚上穿着我的凉鞋,另一只穿的是自己的凉鞋,我左脚上穿的是智老师的另一只拖鞋,右脚根本就找不到鞋穿!哎!全疯了!此时,已到达西藏那曲地区,海拔达到了4500米以上,晚点使向日葵色板官方错过了可可西里,确意外捕捉到了那曲藏北草原大美的晨光和念钦唐古拉雪山,格拉丹东雪峰那雄美身姿!这群疯子一边没命的按着快门儿,老大兴奋的喋喋不休,采风和智老师嘴里还不停地念叨着:淡定!淡定!我真是佩服。向日葵色板官方的这个包厢简直乱得没办法下脚了,布丁和郭队不是过来瞅瞅,然后蹙着眉头抛下一句:这包厢里的女人都是邋遢婆姨!天哪,碍我什么事?!车厢里其余旅客此时正在和高原反应坐着殊死的斗争,我们的人,哈哈!没事8226;R26;•226;••如梦如幻 初见拉萨 7月26日 初见拉萨,神秘的情人 经轮每转一圈,就离天堂更近一些,车轮每转一圈,就离拉萨更近一些。在这趟西藏旅游专列运行多年首次晚点达十八个小时之后,我们终于在26日中午1245分踏上了拉萨的土地,揭开了他她神秘的面纱。 走出拉萨车站,天气很好,真正呼吸到了西藏第一口清新稀薄的空气,有点甜甜的,怪怪的,该是酥油的味道,这里离太阳很近,应该还有太阳的味道! 像向日葵色板官方这样的背包客在拉萨人看来不足为奇,拉萨现在是个以旅游为主的城市,各地的游客都在这个季节涌向这里,包括户外爱好者和摄影爱好者,就像后来阿里大北线上的司机小李说的那样,西藏是多数人的梦想,少数人的天堂。站在这块土地上不是每个人都可以看到人间天堂,除了机遇,运气之外,你还需要用你纯净的心灵去打开天堂之门,他才会给你丰厚的回馈! 来藏之前,西藏这个地方对我而言只是个神秘的名词,我向往,但似乎遥不可及,此时此刻,我却幸福的站在了这里,有点云里雾里,感谢大夫和此次相伴出行的兄弟姐妹,大家的坚持才有了我坚定地假期,没有大家的推波助澜,我此刻应该还囚在我的办公室里凭空向往。 在火车站留了影,九个人分到三辆出租直奔市区,此次的义务领队大夫在半个月前已经联系好住处----暮野青年旅社,这是拉萨唯一坐落在拉萨八廓古城核心保护区内的青年旅舍,也就是8264驴友大本营,价格便宜,这是个藏式四合院,房顶挂满了风马旗,这里没有星级向日葵视频色板APP官网,但他可以为你提供自已动手,丰衣足食的设施,如自己洗洗衣服,做做饭,自己亲手在人家白白的墙上涂涂鸦,让每一位来到拉萨的驴友有一个可以释放自己的第三空间。几百面来自全国各地户外俱乐部赠送的旗,上面满了一个个主人好朋友们的名字,每一位来到这里的驴友都可以找到自己熟悉的志、熟悉的名字,倍感亲切,暖到心里的阳光、五颜六色的风马旗、满院飘香的菜香和酒香……暮野驴舍是主人喜力独具匠心的杰作, 一个用理想堆积的精神家园;一个绝对理想主义者的家、驴友的家…… 进门一楼拐角处,我看到了山西霞客行户外俱乐部的会旗,出身霞客行户外的我们,倍感亲切。 十一张床的“珠峰大本营”温馨干净的大屋,承揽了向日葵色板官方一路的疲惫, 褪去一身的尘埃,在舒适中小憩一会儿。中午就在暮野顶层的天台餐厅解决了午饭,敞开式的布局,简单、粗放、民族化的装饰,让人心情放松。布丁点的随意,饭菜非常可口,秀色可餐的是居然抬眼看到不远处巍峨伫立的布达拉,这是一种幸福,还是一种感动? 下午休整,不做具体安排,原则:尽量少活动,多睡,预防高反。一连坐了三天的火车,都疲惫了,大家不约而同的选择了睡午觉。出门三天了,我都没上过厕所,不知道是不是属于高反范畴,趁大家睡的香,我溜出驴友之家,到街上逛逛,顺便买药。高反,没有想象中那么严重吗,我轻轻松松逛了江苏路,找到一家药店买了药,返回暮野,整个家园都静悄悄的,我到一楼向日葵视频色板APP官网吧拿了一只字笔,在二楼楼梯拐弯处,信手涂鸦了一番,回屋睡觉! 晚上,仍足不出户解决了晚饭,喝着啤酒,遥看着神秘的布达拉,那种惬意!原本打算和传说中的布达拉又一次非常正式的会见,却没想到在这里和他不期而遇。暮野餐厅遥望布达拉晒晒装备 7月27日 走近布达拉 暮野提供免费早餐,馒头、咸菜、稀饭。义务财务总监(还未正式任命)布丁今天犒赏三军,特嘱咐大厨给每人加一份煎蛋,她自己却吃了人家三个馒头、四碗稀饭、五碟咸菜、外加一听拉丁鱼罐头、一个煎蛋!愁得人家暮野餐厅的小伙只掉眼泪,咋跟人家店主喜力交待呀! 9:30兵分两路,曾经来过拉萨到过布宫的龙队、上校、郭队去参观西藏博物馆,大夫,智老师、布丁、采风、宝宝、还有我六个人去参观布宫。 布达拉一直存在着,从小到大一直听说着,却没怎么做过功课。没有理性的认识,只有感性的理解,我是个靠感觉大于靠理性分析事物的人,绝大多数的时候,我的感性判断非常靠谱。身边的人经常说我是先知,也就是先感再知,等我触摸到他,领悟到他的神韵,我想我会更深的理解布达拉。在这里,我不想对这座宏大建筑的历史沿革、建筑特色、宗教渊源,文化遗产做过多的描述,那大多是网上功课的摘录袭抄,而是以我的感觉为主线,做一次情感随想。 遥看过布达拉,如今站在他的面前,仰望这座存在了一千三百年多年的“白色宫殿”,我还是感到无比震撼和由衷的惊叹!人在他面前显得如此渺小,他不仅神秘,他还有种巍然气势使你对他顶礼膜拜,宗教的信仰在这里非常浓郁,这座依山而建的建筑是公元7世纪松赞干布为迎娶文成公主而兴建的规模宏大的宫堡,他到底具有怎样的魔力,诱使人们如此着迷? 入口处十分严格的安全检查之后。向日葵色板官方拾级而上,还没等我抬眼望个全貌,只听见“噗通---哐!”的一声,布丁首先一个扎扎实实的响头磕了下去,不是吧!这可不是五台山,这可是藏传佛教,再说了,这头不是这个磕法!布丁揉着自己的膝盖满脸委屈:奶奶的!摔死我了,看来前世是造孽了,一进门就让我磕这麽大一个头,我的相机!!!旁的游客认真的说:磕的好!磕的好!磕了就解了。没想到武功高强的不丁也有失蹄儿的时候,哈哈! 向日葵色板官方是经过特批的一群人,省了提前一天的预约,进门特殊的顺利,不跟团,当然也没有导游,送向日葵色板官方的人告诉向日葵色板官方只能混导游了.这儿的导游不像内地,白听讲解会不高兴,会想方设法的甩你,还是这儿的导游明理,一个人也是讲,十个人也是讲,不多向日葵色板官方几只耳朵!再说了,在布宫这麽人多地窄的地方,你防的过来麽?!挑长的一明快、顺眼的导游小伙儿,混!还不错,普通话过关,没口音,而且有问必答,只是有点给不上步伐,这里对他们带团导游有考核(天哪,这地方也有考核这个字眼,这让我想起单位的指考核,郁闷!)----一个小时之内,必须将团带出布宫,否则取消下次带团进宫的资格。我们这群没组织的闲散人等,只能多混几任导游了。进入白宫,视线一下变得昏暗,酥油的味道浓烈到窒息,仿佛进了不见天日的迷宫,宫外阳光明媚,光和热气被西域特有的牦牛毛制成的挂帘隔开,人很多,中国游客,外国游客,藏人。我被这第三种人深深感动着,他们着传统藏装,神情专注,头脑里装着不可亵渎的神灵,虔诚而忘我。他们携儿带女,大多千里迢迢远道徒步而来,手里捧着纯纯的酥油,向他们心中至高无上的神灵奉上自己执着的信仰,这种虔诚的气氛相互感染着,没有民族之分,没有国界之分!布宫又通过建筑艺术体积的无限夸张和极度渲染,布局的强烈对比和互相陪衬,尽情表现了佛法神威,告诫人们,惟有超脱尘世,皈依佛门,才是通向天国的境地。不同角度看布宫 进入殿堂,南壁玻璃罩内的那枚代表权势的神秘手印让我印象颇深,据史料记载:1682年五世达赖喇嘛圆寂后,摄政第巴•桑结嘉措为了让工程顺利进行,将五世达赖喇嘛圆寂的消息秘不发丧长达13年之久。因此,公元1693年布宫重建工程结束后,落成纪念碑只得以无字碑的形式出现。而今天人们到布宫朝拜、参观,大多会从这块地处红山脚下的无字碑开始他们游历的步伐。还有至今未设灵塔的六世达赖喇嘛:红宫主体为达赖喇嘛的灵塔殿和佛殿。一世至四世达赖喇嘛的灵塔分别安放在日喀则和拉萨,五世至十三世达赖喇嘛等八位的灵塔则全部安放在布达拉宫的红宫里。布达拉宫里唯一保留有六世达赖喇嘛遗迹的地方,是他曾经的寝宫——德丹吉殿。缘何如此,据称是这位被誉为“情歌圣手”的活佛其时争议颇多。 六世达赖喇嘛14岁时入主布达拉宫,传闻他始终未能忘情于世俗生活,并以亲身感受创作了大量诗歌。相传八阔街的玛吉阿米,就是他当年与情人幽会的地方。康熙三十二年,仓央嘉措殃及于西藏的政教斗争,被清廷废除,解送北上,传说道经今青海湖时,夜中遁去,不知所终。 当然,我不用费心布宫的历史由来,但这座用金子和珍宝筑成的宫殿确实让我惊诧不已。布宫,宫宇叠砌,迂回曲折,与山体有机地融合,昭示周而复始的规律,这是布达拉宫给人最为直接的感受。 从布宫出来,沐浴着炽烈的阳光,身上有着从未有过的轻松,仿佛将所有的罪孽在神灵面前涤荡一清,混混沌沌的进去,清清爽爽的出来,烦恼统统的不见,心轻松到可以放飞!绕着宫墙汇入街上的人流,藏人,汉人,宗教派人士,无神论者,,车水马龙在这片圣土上依旧川流不息着,我不禁心生慨叹:人如蝼蚁,却是万物之灵,改造着这个世界,也筑造着心灵的家园。到底是人创造了神,还是神创造了人?答案无从知晓。僧侣 偶是越野偶们的首领----龙老大向日葵色板官方的上校,是真的上校哦!这是武功高强的布丁 驱车到西郊和第二小分队汇合,在罗布林卡附近的一家川菜馆解决了午饭,下午接着逛历代达赖喇嘛的夏宫---罗布林卡公园,不过60元的门票价格不菲,这是一座宫廷式园林,绿树成荫,是历来传统藏戏及民间歌舞表演的重要场所。进园不久,就发现这是个很好的去处,环境幽静,绿树成荫,氧气充足,青青的草地诱惑着酒足饭饱的向日葵色板官方小憩一番,没等龙老大的号令,就卧倒了一片。这个美丽的季节,美丽的地方,不仅仅吸引着外地人,本地藏人也会携朋招友来此踏青,草地上摆上香醇的青稞酒及各种美食,就着糌粑,喝着上好的酥油茶。相互高声说一句:“扎西德勒”!如有客人到访,家庭的主妇就会端出清香可口的酥油茶,恭恭敬敬地捧到客人面前。客人不能轻意拒绝,至少要喝上三碗,喝得越多,就会被认为懂得礼貌。龙队和上校就是这个时候过去讨了人家三杯青稞酒,喝完美滋滋的砸吧着嘴坐在草地上回味! 做驴的时候,什么苦都能吃,等做回猪了,想着法儿的享受!偌大个园林,没走了多少路,没进了几座园中寺院,就想着地儿歇了,索性尽情享受一番,园中觅一清净茶社,来几壶价格便宜又味道纯正的藏式酥油茶和甜茶,坐在树下的阴凉地儿美美地品着,布丁幸福的感慨:不要太幸福呦!老大幸福地总结:喝了酥油茶,从此山不再高,路不再遥远!-----真是幸福的一天。 由于高反,食欲下降,我决定晚饭免了,早点休息,却被布丁不由分说赶上了天台,并亲自给调了一碗香喷喷的汤面,意外地勾起了我的食欲,干掉了满满一大碗! 这里的时间和内地相差近两个小时,布达拉的夜景十分壮观,晚9:30----10:30布宫整个灯火通明,在夜空的映衬下批上了一层神密的外衣,魅力十足。这群疯狂的人们,体力超乎想象,九点多,在内地已经快洗洗睡了,龙老大居然带着一支队伍,全副武装,长枪短炮,如同一群夜行军,要夜探布达拉。房间里留下了头痛的上校,胸闷的大夫,感冒的采风,浑身没劲的越野。十一点多,迷迷乎乎听见部队回来了,一个个脸上没有眉飞色舞,全都面无表情,象霜打了的茄子,我起身问:被抓了?布丁:非!老大今儿是打上鸡血了,把向日葵色板官方楞生生从布达拉给遛回来了,腿筋都抽了三回!我窃喜,倒头接着睡…… 大夫花絮(1)到拉萨的第一天,因大家混住一间房,大夫有点心猿意马,不肯入睡,第二天就高反 了,第二天晚上,借此契机,要求换床到美眉布丁旁边那张床上睡。 布丁:你吃了豹子胆了!? 大夫:我没吃豹子胆,但我吃了安定了! 布丁:那我就放心了!看你也是有贼心没贼胆! 大夫碍于智老师在场不好吭气,自言自语:贼要睡了!老大有没有鸡血,给我打点。 老大朝我嚷嚷:护士!咱还有鸡血吗?给大夫打点! 我嚷:别开玩笑了,睡吧!!! 大家从被窝里笑醒,上校一跃而起:我们没开玩笑!向日葵色板官方说正经的呢!还有没有鸡血,给我也来点!!! 全体笑喷…….全体卧倒!喝着酥油茶,幸福的像花儿一样! 7月28日 继续在暮野休整,规定早5点起床,睁眼就8点了,今天游览大昭寺,说实话,大昭寺的香火很盛,人多到拥挤,还要排队,如果在平时,我不会去凑这个热闹,但这是西藏的大昭寺,不去不合适,只有硬着头皮一头扎进如海的善男信女当中,扎进那片烟雾缭绕的酥油味里,拜了神灵,观了佛面,敬献了格桑花,速速出寺,再逗留半个时辰,准晕在里面。 大昭寺在藏人眼里,是神圣的庙宇,他们会倾其所有,尽一生的积蓄用来拜谒,不管千里迢迢,还是山穷水恶,钱用尽了,一路乞讨而来,路人大多乐善好施,助其成业,也求己福。所以信徒众多,衣衫褴褛,手摇转经筒,磕着长头,梭巴仁波切开释:“转动经纶,使一切有情(不只是人,也包括昆虫等)均不会堕落三恶趣,他们会获得天人身,或往生净土。 这就是他们信仰的世界,我对藏传佛教没有研究,不懂但很尊重,有信仰应该是件好事。布施远道而来同样也是远道而来 宗教的力量 宗教的力量宗教的力量这里超人如云,沉贴的最高纪录,刚发了贴几秒钟不到,沉到下一版了,郁闷!{5_151} 下午,自由活动,龙队去丹杰林路上的户外店购置了气罐,为明天的阿里之行----大北线做准备。我陪采风逛街购物,来西藏之前她理了个红军发型,戴上她那顶帽子,有人说她像地质工珠峰是必然的,我觉得我这辈子登珠峰是不可能了,能够亲眼看到珠峰我也觉的是一件可望不可及的事情,后天居然要去珠峰,住在大本营,我是真真儿的有点懵。虔诚的藏人在转寺大昭寺前合个影路过的哥哥姐姐们,请顶顶贴,否则好文美图大家都看不到喽! 7月29日 魂牵梦绕的阿里----向日葵色板官方来了 约好八点启程,利利索索打好包,等到太阳晒到屁股了,司机小李才开着他那辆18号丰田4500出现在向日葵色板官方面前,一个高大、憨厚、热情的甘肃小伙儿,还有另一位司机小朱和他的16号丰田4500姗姗来迟,接上向日葵色板官方出发。 一辆车四个坐儿,两辆车八个人,偏偏就多我一个,小李说,坐后面吧,查的紧。这样我被塞进了后面行李堆儿,似乎这种情况就是为我专门准备的。最可气的是坐在前面的大夫和布丁总是象看猴子一样回过头来看我,后备厢是和前面相通的,靠窗多了一个竖的座位,在上校的帮助下摞在后面的徒步大背包规整的还可以,出了市区几下颠波我就被埋在了行李堆里,咂得我眼冒金星!更可气的是后门不能开,要想放风还得光着脚提着鞋从后座上爬出来,非常辛苦!就像上车没买票的待遇! 快到羊湖(羊卓雍错)的时候,苦难终于结束了,我被获释坐到了副驾旁边的加坐上,视野无比开阔。 沿着拉贡公路往机场方向走,过一条隧道,道路出现分岔,一条是通往机场的,另一条是通往日喀则的,去江孜要走去机场的路,向日葵色板官方4500盘绕在山间,弯路比较多,但路况还好。过了甘多拉山口就可以看到美丽的羊卓雍错了,只见蓝天下群山环抱着碧蓝的湖水,远处天边矗立着雪山,静如处子的羊湖让向日葵色板官方惊叹不已,后来得知羊卓雍错和玛旁雍错、纳木错同为西藏三大圣湖。向日葵色板官方的司机也特别配合,他会寻找合适的拍摄角度为向日葵色板官方停车,狂热的拍摄人尽情挥洒热情。公路沿着湖畔到卡浪子,这时候,天暗下来,向日葵色板官方的车一会儿冲进雨里,一会儿冲进阳光里,很有意思,司机说,这就是所谓的“十里不同天”都是头顶上的那片云彩在翻云覆雨。冲出那片有意思的云彩约两个多小时后,壮观的卡诺拉冰川就呈现在眼前了。我的一生中虽没经历过大富大贵,却经历了如此大美,我认为这也是老天赐予的一份意外收获。 相传,羊湖是天上的仙女下凡变成的。由于湖水的深浅不同和光照的变化,湖水从里到外颜色逐层变幻,据说,如果俯首凝视羊湖,就能在水中看到自己的前生和来世,传说归传说,我相信每个人都不会愿意真的去探索自己的前世来生,活着的美好在于明天的不可预测,未知才使生活变的有意义,今天活着就能看到明天要做什麽,生命会在哪个季节消逝,那将是一件多么可怕、生不如死的事情啊。 看着美丽的羊湖,上校立刻表示有裸游的迫切需要,特别想让羊湖这个美丽的仙女拥抱一下他嫩滑的身体,他渴望一头扎进湖里,出来就返老还童变成一妙龄少女或英俊少男,上校说话的态度一本正经,口气十分的恳切,应该能够感动上苍。 此时此刻卡诺拉冰川就矗立在我们眼前,长长的冰舌由山间而下,冰川下五彩的经幡随风飒飒作响,闭上眼,感受着拂面而过的高原之风,我感到自己的心境无限的扩展开来,空旷而辽远……. 下午七点,路过宗山古堡,是电影《红河谷》的外景拍摄地,当时没反应过来,所以印象不是十分深刻,拍了几张照片匆匆而去。过了江孜县,已是西藏的黄昏时刻,一片大光从山边投射下来,光线不强不弱,落在公路两边的青稞田里,山暗田明,远暗近明,正是向日葵色板官方想要的大光!我们跳下车以迅雷不及掩耳盗铃之势钻进田边抢拍,十分钟的时间,大光移走,相信大家都有了几张大作,就连用松下LX2拍的这几张大片都非常满意! 日喀则距离拉萨250公里,海拔3800米,比拉萨略高,是臧南的重镇,日喀则臧语称“喜葛次”意为“如意庄园”是西藏第二大城市和宗教中心,称后臧地区。这一带气候温和,日照充足,是西藏的粮仓。今晚就住在日喀则,司机帮我们联系了一家经济、干净的小店----金兰卓玛住吧,名字很有意思,里面的设施也别有风味,一进门就能看到舒服的秋千藤椅和摇椅,让你一解疲劳,向日葵色板官方就住在后院的二楼,放了行李,集合吃饭。西藏有名的怪现象:四川的饭馆,河南的出租。真是不假,就是没有山西的东东! 饭吃的舒服又热闹,布丁这个大总管还算不错!跑里跑外,像李连英一样辛苦,凑合用吧!饭桌上就“人工呼吸”方面诸多问展开激烈讨论,我有点饿,没听清楚由来,不细述了,好象是以布丁为人工呼吸的模特,鼓励大家勤于练习户外急救知识,要知详情请致电布丁同志为你细细道来! 卡诺拉冰川 光影大片 翻云覆雨 风起云涌([]
7天7夜只为看你一眼——2013年10月贡嘎大环线徒步历险记 今年“十一”,我第三次来到贡嘎,带着更大的梦想,那就是要全方位、多角度、近距离地欣赏贡嘎。向日葵色板官方设计的线路也是全新的,几乎把贡嘎美景一网打尽:牛背山、雅哈垭口、子梅垭口、贡嘎寺、大本营(BC)、C1、那玛峰、玉龙西垭口,每一个都是观赏贡嘎的好地方,每一天向日葵色板官方都要与贡嘎相伴。 7天7夜,我们在小雨中前行,在大雪中等待。其中两天在海拔4500米的子梅垭口扎营,两天在海拔4370米的贡嘎大本营等待,3天在海拔3750米的贡嘎寺守望,但连续7天的坏天气,特别是贡嘎大本营连续两天的大雪,把向日葵色板官方的那玛峰攀登梦想完全浇灭,让我们的心冷到冰点。 值得欣慰的是:在向日葵色板官方离开贡嘎大本营准备下撤的那一刻,贡嘎终于被我们的诚心所感动,弥漫了几天的云雾慢慢散开,贡嘎向向日葵色板官方展示出它的气势磅礴和阿娜多姿。而当向日葵色板官方再次返回贡嘎寺的那个晚上,星光灿烂,贡嘎一览无余。 7天7夜的等待只为看你一眼,但一瞬即成永恒。贡嘎,你总在那里,我们还会再来。 时间:9月27日——10月13日共17天 线路:深圳——成都——冷碛——牛背山——新都桥——上木居——子梅垭口——贡嘎寺——贡嘎大本营——C1——那玛峰——贡嘎寺——玉龙西垭口——雅哈哑口——新都桥——成都——光雾山——米仓山——成都——深圳。 人员:GG:行摄匆匆、与天相守、阿韦、秋池(小田田)、 有足道、cquptchh(龟少)、streaking68(裸奔)、岚轩主人(黄大师)、钓猫鱼、周游列国、阿牛(fengniu);MM:tt007、夭夭2008、妙歌、玉翁锦、晓钰0718。 这次活动定位为摄影,徒步,雪山三合一。牛背山是前奏,那玛峰是高潮,光雾山是放松,而核心则是贡嘎。16天的活动包括牛背山摄影,贡嘎徒步,那玛峰攀登,光雾山摄影四项内容,可以说把川西美景一次看个够。 牛背山:位于四川泸定县、天全县、荥经县三县交界处,是青衣江、大渡河的分水岭,山顶海拔3600米,因山顶一面悬崖有巨石突出酷似牛头,山脊细长貌似牛背而得名。泸定县内山峰众多,是中国5000米以上山峰最多的县,而牛背山就是其中最佳的观景台。牛背山视野开阔,云海壮丽,被誉为“中国最大的观景平台”,是绝佳的摄影圣地。牛背山的云海浓密而均匀、壮阔而平缓,随处可见的瀑布云犹如阿凡达中“哈利路雅山”,让人感觉云中漫步;而四周连绵不断的群山错落有致,层次分明,蜀山之王贡嘎雪山矗立于最高点,泥巴山、娘娘山、瓦屋山、峨眉山、夹金山、四姑娘山和二郎山在前,大渡河大峡谷在后,几乎天府之国的所有名山峻岭在此时都变成了玲珑盆景。翻滚的云雾之下,群山丘陵逐级降低,缓缓融入稻浪翻滚的天府平原。无论是徒步爱好者或是摄影发烧友,牛背山都可谓是顶级行摄之旅。贡嘎山:坐落在青藏高原东部边缘,横断山系的大雪山中段,位于大渡河与雅砻江之间。“贡嘎山”藏语意为“最高的雪山”,山体南北长约60公里,东西宽约30公里,位于四川省康定、泸定、石棉、九龙四县之间。贡嘎山主峰海拔7556米,是四川省最高峰,被称为“蜀山之王”,2005年被《中国国家地理杂志》评选为“中国最美的十大名山”第二名!那玛峰:海拔5588米,是贡嘎卫峰之一,也是贡嘎地区5500米以上山峰中最容易的一座。那玛峰离贡嘎很近,攀登难度不大,为冰川裂缝及冰雪坡地形,天气良好的情况下,可由冰舌末端大本营一天登顶。山顶景色极佳,可以清楚看见整个贡嘎西北山脊和主峰。 光雾山:位于四川盆地东北边缘,川、陕交界处的南江县境内,距陕西汉中市55公里,距西安市304公里,距成都市390公里,距重庆市305公里。景区面积830平方公里,由桃园、大坝景区、十八月潭、神门、小巫峡五大片区组成,集秀峰怪石、峭壁幽谷、溪流瀑潭、田园山林于一体,堪称“山奇、石怪、谷幽、水秀、峰险”五绝。景区自然生态环境独特、森林植被原始古朴、地域空间博大、辐射范围广阔,主要以奇特的喀斯特峰丛地貌,古朴的原生态植被,迷人的瀑潭秀水为景观特色,春花烂漫,迎春杜鹃别样红,夏树葱茏,碧峰飞瀑雾群山,秋叶漂丹,深秋红叶醉层林,冬林映雪,玉树琼花披银妆,四季有景。红军文化、三国文化、蜀汉文化、米仓古道文化等历史文化底蕴异常深厚,巴山游击队纪念馆、李先念骨灰撒播区被列为全国红色旅游经典景区。 红叶是光雾山景区的一大独特生态景观和靓丽名片,有“红叶甲天下”之美誉。可观赏面积达680平方公里,是亚洲最大的红叶观赏区,被誉为“亚洲最长的天然红地毯”。红叶景观面积之大、色彩之丰、资源之富、场面之盛、品位之高和观赏期之长为国之仅有,世所罕见。“巴山一夜风,木叶映天红。色比桃花艳,秋如春意浓。”光雾山红叶倾倒了无数游人,每年有10多万国内外游客前往光雾山景区观赏红叶。向日葵色板官方的大家庭:向日葵色板官方,一直在路上:马叉,无处不在:一、计划行程D1:9月27日,深圳—成都D2

谢谢大家支持。 贡嘎地区徒步和登山注意事项 贡嘎雪山位于甘孜藏族自治州泸定、康定、九龙三县境内,是四川第一高山,主峰海拔7556米,被誉为“蜀山之王”。以贡嘎山为中心,贡嘎主峰周围林立着145座海拔5000米以上的冰峰,形成了群峰簇拥、雪山相接的宏伟景象。贡嘎山是国际上享有盛名的高山探险和登山圣地,但贡嘎山也是最难以征服的极高山,其登顶难度远远大于珠穆朗玛峰。据统计:到目前为止,仅有24人成功登顶,却有37人在攀登中和登顶后遇难,这其中包括14名外国人。登山死亡率远远超过珠峰的14%和K2峰的30%。 随着《中国国家地理杂志》的推介,贡嘎从深藏闺中变为天下驴子所共知,每年来贡嘎徒步的人络绎不绝,只为一睹贡嘎的风采。 贡嘎山地区的气候受海拔高度的影响较大,气温随海拔升高而降低,而降水量随海拔升高而增大。贡嘎转山线路几乎全程都在海拔3000米以上,最高的日乌且垭口高达4900米.贡嘎地区的气候多变。每年6—10月为雨季,11月至翌年5月为旱季。年降水量800-900毫米,多集中在7、8、9三月。夏季云量大,日温差也大,在海拔6000米以上有时气温可达-20°C。旱季里天气晴朗,比同纬度其他地区还要温和,一年里气温最高的是4、5月份。 贡嘎徒步难度如何?个人能力不同,线路不同,后勤保障不同,天气条件不同,答案也有所不同。拿今年国庆节为例,因为连续几天大雪,很多队伍准备不足,使贡嘎成为户外事故的重灾区。那玛峰没有一人登顶,贡嘎徒步穿越的队伍很多在子梅垭口就打道回府了,而从老榆林穿日乌且垭口的队伍最惨,迷路,失温,半夜赶路,饥寒交迫,溃不成军的比比皆是,很多成都的户外俱乐部被投诉。其中一人脱离队伍,家属求救,赔了14600元;还有一女驴路上失温晕倒,被好心的马夫救活。而发生在向日葵色板官方身边未经证实的消息是:一猛驴在队友下撤的情况下坚持孤身一人上那玛峰C1营地,经过向日葵色板官方营地的时候还买了向日葵色板官方队员一个炉头。几天没有出山,他的家属找当地人上山寻找,最后发现死在贡嘎大本营的帐篷中。。。 向日葵色板官方不可以轻视任何一座雪山,更何况是死亡率最高的蜀山之王——贡嘎!一、贡嘎徒步注意事项(一)线路的选择1、最简单的线路:上木居——子梅垭口——贡嘎寺——草科,3天 适合没有多少户外经验又想一睹贡嘎风采的新驴。可以上木居坐车到子梅垭口,子梅垭口徒步到贡嘎寺,贡嘎寺再徒步到草科界碑。走不动的时候可以坐车、骑马,自己实际徒步的时间很少。 这条线路只有一个难点,那就是在海拔4539米的子梅垭口露营,很多人晚上会有高原反应,特别是初上高原的人。不过,实在忍受不了,可以下撤到海拔3700米的上木居或海拔3470米的上子梅村。2、准线路:老榆林——日乌且垭口——贡嘎寺——子梅垭口——上木居,5天 这条徒步线路算是贡嘎地区最准的徒步线路了,难度较大,如果自己负重则难度更大,如果遇到恶劣天气则存在不确定风险,适合有丰富的经验的驴友或跟随有实力的俱乐部。 主要难点:翻越日乌且垭口,子梅垭口露营。3、贡嘎环线:牛背山——雅哈垭口——子梅垭口——贡嘎寺——贡嘎大本营——贡嘎寺——玉龙西垭口,8天 这是一条以贡嘎为核心的环线,几乎把所有贡嘎观景点一网打尽,徒步和坐车相结合,适合对贡嘎情有独钟的驴友和摄影发烧友。这条线路所需时间较长,灵活性较大,可以随意组合。主要难点是子梅垭口露营,贡嘎寺到贡嘎大本营徒步和翻越玉龙西垭口。(二)户外装备 即使是自己负重,贡嘎徒步的装备也要按最坏的天气条件来准备。1、个人装备 大背包及防雨罩或驮包、随身小包、帐篷、睡袋(-15度)、防潮垫、头灯、羽绒服、冲锋衣、冲锋裤、防水高帮登山鞋、雪套、抓绒上衣、抓绒裤、保暖内衣、袜子5双(其中羊毛袜一双以上)、防水手套、保温水壶、墨镜、遮阳帽、个人餐具、洗漱用品,防晒护肤用品等。1)睡袋舒适温—15,不够的可以带两个睡袋;2)注意防寒,衣服多带,羽绒服、抓绒、保暖衣、羊毛袜、毛线帽、抓绒手套,冲锋衣、快干内衣等;3)大包给马帮,最好配一个驮包或外罩,以免弄脏;4)高帮登山鞋,至少试穿三次以上,多带一双鞋垫和护舒宝,鞋子进水的时候可以保持干燥;5)带双登山杖、护膝、护踝,保护双脚;6)遮阳帽、太阳镜、头巾、30倍以上防晒霜,户外雨衣,防雨防晒;7)个人常用药品:感冒药、肠胃药、清火药、去痛片、消炎药、活络油等;8)头灯、备用电池、垃圾袋、充电器等;9)1升左右保温水壶、洗簌用品、个人餐具;10)头灯、手套、眼镜最好备份。2、公共装备 对讲机,GPS,地图,炊具,炉具,急救箱等。(三)后勤保障1、交通1)成都包车2)班车 到上木居可以坐成都——九龙的班车在沙德下,再包当地车去上木居;去老榆林可以坐班车到康定,再包当地车去老榆林;草科出来后可坐过路车回成都。3)当地包车 在沙德、上木居、玉龙西、上子梅村、下子梅村都可以找到当地的小面的和皮卡车,还有摩托车。2、沿途吃住 沿途酒店很多,川菜为主,吃住问不大,但节假日可能价格较贵,住房比较紧张一些。上木居、上子梅村、下子梅村、贡嘎寺都有民房可住但数量有限,藏民家有吃的但可供选择的很少,大多面条、青菜、鸡蛋酥油茶等。3、向导和马夫 藏民不太讲信用,向导和马匹最好在老榆林、上木居或玉龙西找好,半路租马会被宰得很惨!出发前最好把时间、线路、价格谈好,免得他们反悔。(四)联系电话1、成都新南门汽车站:028——85433609,854420462、成都四号工厂青年旅馆:028——86265770,成都中同仁路小通巷四号3、冷碛鑫隆饭店:135414795154、上木居登巴客栈:13990460621,135516943615、老榆林多吉大叔:0836——2830628,13320793499上述只是我所知道的部分相关电话,不对服务质量担保,责任自负。二、那玛峰攀登注意事项1、那玛峰虽然海拔不高,只有5588米,但目前登顶成功率并不高,所以不可小视。天气是主要原因,秋冬季节较好;2、C1之上需要使用路绳、高山靴、冰爪和冰镐等技术装备;3、如果是找四川登协或成都当地户外俱乐部租借技术装备,最好出发前试一下高山靴,因为各种品牌的码数准不一,一般比平时的鞋子大两码比较靠谱,因为大一点总比夹脚要好。4、如果对攀登线路不是非常熟悉,最好请有经验的当地协作,目前成都三人行户外、青蛙户外、徐老幺和蜀山探险都有组织那玛峰的攀登。([]
8月22日晚上从马来西亚的吉隆坡飞去了意大利的罗马。在欧洲的行程还没有确定,就从罗马开始旅行基本上就走一步看一步,走到那就算那呗。。。旅行中没有闲工夫写文字就简单的发点图片吧!纪录下走过的行程:意大利:罗马——梵蒂冈——佛罗伦萨——比萨——锡耶纳——圣吉米亚诺——米兰瑞士:卢塞恩———苏黎世德国:巴州———国王湖奥地利:萨尔茨堡———维也纳捷克:布拉格———克鲁姆洛夫德国:柏林———汉堡荷兰:阿姆斯特丹———马斯特里赫特比利时:卢森堡:法国:肯尼亚:坦桑尼亚:在意大利的驴友有木有?求各种形式的拼房+拼饭。。。去欧洲是上中学时就有的愿望,这次终于有机会实现,实在是老天的恩赐咯!在旅行的过程中重拾自我,一个人来到欧洲,需要溶入这里的生活,否则自己会很痛苦,我想我应该能做到。我想能溶入这里的生活是因为我没有像大多数中国人那样把自己摆在亚洲人甚至是中国人的位置上跟他们交往。作为同是吃食物造粪的地球人,没有什么区别,如果他们是吃粪造食物的,那向日葵色板官方天朝人也不敢吃食物了,但是还好他们和向日葵色板官方一样也是娘了个希匹的造粪动物,这样想向日葵色板官方就是平等的哇哈哈。。。没有来欧洲之前就知道这里的空气很新鲜,大概相当于杭州空气质量优的日子,甚至更好。所以下飞机走出机场,不由的做几次深呼吸,我终于又来了,自由的欧洲。这里是没有压力的欧洲,没有人在意你有钱没钱,没有人在意你在这里是否有房,是否有车,是否穿名牌,是否结婚,甚至没有人在意你是否穿衣服。。。总之,不会有人会在意你的一切,爱干嘛干嘛。你要是觉得失落,你就失落,你要是觉得寂寞,你就寂寞,你要是觉得自由,你就自由。第一次去欧洲,基本没有行程上的设计,觉得那里都难以割舍,这样可能这次的欧洲之行注定是走马观花只能对欧洲历史、文化作一些基本的了解啦。不过这也不要紧,按照家里的安排明年应该还是会去欧洲留学,学习企业的管理。虽然自己并不喜欢这个专业但还是应付一下吧,希望自己将来的另一半能有企业管理上的天赋,这样以后就不用我自己直接来管理公司,可以过一些自己喜欢的生活方式,就像扎大叔那样选择30多岁就退休到处旅行过些简单平常的穷日子,希望这样吧。。。算算来8264快半年了,期间得到了很多领导、老驴们的关心与指导,这也是我一路走下去的动力源泉,看到你们能开开心心的来这里评分跟帖,善善真诚的在圣母玛利亚的像前替你们祈福啦!!!罗马的中央火车站Roma Termini,过几天会从这坐火车去佛罗伦萨。火车站的周围就是中国商贸城,有很多福建人、浙江人在这里长住经商。到了罗马就按照LP旅行指南上的介绍直扑那家物美价廉的冰淇淋百年老店,从罗马中心火车站走过去大概20分钟左右的路。这家冰激凌店的制作完全遵循自然原则,所有选料均为时令水果、天然坚果、奶、蛋等,甚至除了原料本生含水外制作过程不再加一滴水。因此在入口后,绵延松软的口感、新鲜且层次鲜明的味觉体验,感动各年龄层的视觉及味觉,它更是意大利爱美女性的最爱,低脂、低糖、低热量,最低乳脂肪含量在10%左右,吃了也不会发胖的哇哈哈哈。。。还有那些美味的冰激凌糕点。。。吃完冰激凌后坐地铁去罗马斗兽场,到了那里感觉比想象中要破旧,进到里头,也没有在电影电视中看到壮观,就是大环套小环的圈圈里面象迷宫一样的一排排小巷似的隔间,真不知道当时残忍嗜血的罗马人是怎么观赏人与兽或人与人的血腥决斗的。出了斗兽场,爬上了山丘顶,可以俯瞰一下罗马废墟的全景。。。斗兽场的旁边这个建筑物看起来有点像巴黎的凯旋门斗兽场外面有很多这样的货,你花几个小钱就可以与他们合个影什么的,下次那个胆子大的姐妹与他们合影的时候顺手掐掐他们的肌肉看结不结实哈哈哈哈哈哈斗兽场的外围轮廓这俩姐妹踏着电动车围着斗兽场转来转去不知是什么的干活斗兽场外面的石头路上一辆精致的扫垃圾车斗兽场二楼的走廊有一个古物博物馆,在这些玻璃柜里面陈列着古罗马时期斗兽场里勇士们华丽的盔甲、武器。。。等
前提:这是2011年的游记,只是发布的比较晚而已~回答下大家的疑虑有时候会觉得,独自旅行并不是一件看起来那么风光的事。在机场等飞机的时候,在lignon hill呆坐着等火山的时候,孤独的夜晚在legaspi的政府宿舍里看电视的时候,咬着呼吸管睁大眼睛看着紫色珊瑚的时候,子夜拿着手电筒走山路回家的时候 ,星光下泛舟海面看萤火虫的时候,在饭店里苍蝇围绕哦中洗无穷无尽的盘子的时候,在MRT出站电梯上回头望着汹涌人潮的时候,经常会想到很多东西,关于旅行,承诺,生命,时间,以及所有的一切。我似乎是为了寻找其中存在的某种意义,想要变得更坚强,更隐忍,更闪亮,更勇敢,所以才迷恋一个人的旅行。但是回首时,发现旅行仅仅是旅行本身,意义之类的东西只是转瞬即逝的心灵悸动,我害怕忘记,渴望惊喜,所以,我背上包,第二次探索菲律宾,我钟爱的国度。 我希望你不是为图而来,而是用心和我一起体会这段旅行,文字有13000多,如果没有耐心,请不要看了。*沙发couchsurfing指的是“沙发客”,一种通过网络联系当地居民免费获得住宿的办法。D1:我回来了依然是红眼delay航班,依然是怨妇一样的心态,每次旅行的开端心境仿佛都不怎么好,没心情欣赏广州的夜色,翻出《挪威的森林》英文版开始看第十遍。不知不觉睡着了,醒来已经是在马尼拉,打的去了international youth hostel.这里就像是我的家一样,每个向日葵视频色板APP官网生我都认识,每个微笑我都熟悉。在凌晨2点冲进门,说出“我回来了,亲爱的们。”的时候,仿佛时光倒流,一切美好的事情还会重演。D2:我的家 早上出门的第一个目的地显然是Intramuros,当跪在教堂的椅子上,仰望彩绘玻璃窗的时候,上帝告诉我,尽管过去了3个月的时光,尽管这世界上发生了千千万万的事,马尼拉还是那个马尼拉,Intramuros还是我的Intramuros,youth hostel还是我的家,内心安稳。每次回到马尼拉,最重要的事情非购物莫属,尤其Makati是我最爱,这次刚好赶上FOREVER 21打折,所有女孩像疯了一样在里面抢来抢去。全年都是夏天的国度,毛衣比夏装还便宜,每次都有一种乡下老鼠进城的感觉,眼睛都看不过来的五光十色。逛完大商场就是Baclaran market,因为青旅在附近,Baclaran market成为每天的必经之地。或许你在马尼拉,看过马尼拉湾的落日,去过各大shopping mall血拼,进过Intramuros的每一座古老建筑,但是这还不完全是真实的马尼拉。这座城市有摩天大楼,有古老建筑,更有Baclaran market 污水横流的逼仄街道,在泥水中嬉戏的儿童,推车卖饮品的小贩,鳞次栉比的服装小店,炸鸡的香味,钱币递出的响声,五花八门的Jeepny,街边鲜艳的各种切好的水果……这个世界真实的一面在彼处,也在此处。 晚上在青旅和大家聊天拍照,感叹facebook终于可以用了真是太难得了。D3:没有火山 青旅的隔音效果很差,晚上常有很吵很吵的摩托车经过,宿舍里住的基本都是菲律宾人,早上6点她们就会起床洗漱,睡得不沉,就会被吵醒。可是很奇迹地,我睡到10点才起。和一个日本哥哥一起拼车打的去机场。每次听到我说出自己的名字Sukey时,他就开心得手舞足蹈.....在机场等去legaspi的飞机的时间里,注意到一个女生,化着很得体漂亮的妆容,穿MUJI的衣服,看的书,文字是竖着写的。她就是我后来搭讪的山田蓝子,日菲混血,少见的英文超好没有口音的日本女孩,在legaspi的私立大学读书,在飞机delay的时间里,我们聊到donsol,聊到异国生活,被她表扬我的日语没有中国口音,非常开心。可惜飞机降落后就再也没有见到她。旅行中有无数的离别,我知道只有相逢的喜悦才能冲淡离别的伤感。这次来菲律宾之前匆匆忙忙在couchsurfing联系到了legaspi和coron的两个host,legaspi的host Pearl Marian 是位非常善良的大学老师,竟然来机场接我,带我去cagsawa church ,可惜天气阴沉,不能看到火山全貌。一路上她对我讲述2009年那一场台风,夺去了许许多多的生命。马荣火山就在那里,有时像守护神一样,惠泽方圆百里的田野,有时又称为猛兽,伤害山脚下的人。pearl带我去pacific mall里吃了晚饭,又叫她的医生朋友Jay帮我联系,让我住在政府宿舍里,RMB28一晚还是有空调有电视的单人房,电视可以收到好多中文频道,异国他乡能听到中文是非常开心的事。晚上下起大雨,pearl介绍我去宿舍附近的Bicol Blends Cafe 吃东西,第一次吃到云呢拿辣味雪糕,非常刺激!雨一直不停,她拿出笔记本电脑上网,我拿出书慢慢看。背景音乐是无穷无尽的爵士乐,我喜欢这种安静美好的氛围。([

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 locations of Hong Shan Daban. The mountain was very round and it was hard to find the mountain pass. After determining the location of the Daban, I moved straightforward. When I passed a messy grassland, I saw something that I was reluctant to see more than hundreds of wild yaks' head scattered all over, which was definitely the scene of the illegal hunting. After that it was a very long ancient river bed with soft sand slowly rising until the foot of the mountain.There are some spines on the surface of the tongues of wild yaks, which are used by nomads in this area as combs. They use them from their teens to the time when their hair becomes silver.The deserted Jeep, could be left by illegal hunters years agoThe slaughtered wild yaks with the wheel size heads. Some of the skulls were chopped into half. Why was that? Could be taken away for making combs?My camp at the foot of the Daban underthe lingering golden rays of the setting sun. Tomorrow's weather must be wonderful, I reckoned Day 11(April 30), 20.4km, Camping 5120mThe surface of the road leading to Hong Shan Daban was very hard, most of them were small rocks, sort of gravels, plus a quite long downhill slope, I pushed my bike more than 20km for the first time after Luxing Hu. The mountain pass was quite flat, just like a broad ridge, it was 5256m above the sea level. Upon arriving at the pass, Toze Gangri of 6356m was in my sight clearly, very much round and there was no back bone like normal snow covered mountains. Most of the snow mountains in Chang Tang looked like this probably it was due to the geological movements. There were quite a few chirus or Tibetan antelopes in the valley but I was not interested in this kind of animals anymore after I witnessed a large scale of migration of such animals last year elsewhere.The herbivorous animals here are very quick to reach its original size of the population, such as wild yaks, chirus, Tibetan gazelle, pika, and marmot. When you go into the depths of the Chang Tang, you could hardly be surpised by the sudden appearance of the chirus because they are so common in here. At this time of year, the chirus have already male-female parted. You could see many pregnant female chirus but hardly see any males. According to recent research, Zonag Co is not the only lake for breeding. There are at least four of them in the whole Chang Tang. Zonag Co, Tuzi Hu, Heishi Beihu, and another lake I can not remember. I think there must be more than four of them and most of the populations do not migrant long way like most people used to think. They generally migrant from south to north between Central Mountains and Kunlun Mountains.The chirus looks very timid but are very curious about outside world. They are not really afraid of people, particularly in the depth of the Chang Tang. The nearest distance we can approach is about 30m. They just stare at you calmly and think who you are and why you move so slow. They would run in front of you. Look like they are afraid of you but the fact is they are playing with you. A man's own character shapes his fortune. This is of course suit for animals too. The chirus are the typical one. They have a super speed and a pair of sharp antlers. If they are crazy, three of them work together could easily kill a wolf. But as you might have known, their antlers are just for fighting to mate with females.Down the Daban there was a very steep and straight road, I tried to ride the bicycle but ended up with falling over. The front rack came loose and one of the pannier flew into valley. The foot of the mountain was the Yueya Hu covered by ice, which was alake full of heavy metal elements. Along the lake bank there were many stark rocks very much weathered, lining up just like castles or houses. This made me stop to investigate what they were from time to time, I did understand they were just rocks though but they were so real like the figures of real people. On of them even made me hide in a ditch, observing them again and again using my binoculars. There were also many black volcanic rocks. All in all, the features of this area were really unusual.Passed over the Yueya Hu, it was an endless ancient lake bed. What my GPS showed was this area was a big lake like tentacles. I looked around, it was endless wilderness without a piece of ice and a drop of water. Roughly, I estimated this lake bed was about 1200 square meters. I had to tell you that Chang Tang was a place where there was no high-resolution map. The marks in the map often were some kind of memory. Just like this ancient lake bed under my feet, may be it was full of water a few years ago. Who knows. Pushing the bike in such an endless lake bed was very easy to get lost. My mind was in a chaotic status too.The migration of the animals, photo taken last year The road rising up to the Daban, full of gravels, very hard, ideal for pushing your bikeThe Yueya Hu gazed at by the round and smooth Toze Gangri. At a glimpse, could you tell which was mountain, which was cloud?Ancient lake bed. The white stains were the alkali, look like ice. About wildlife (part 1)Declaration Personal experience for reference onlyDangerous wild animals and their threats to human beings are a ever-LASTING subject for those backpackers travelling in the wild.In Chang Tang, for example, there are two kinds of deadly animals, one is wolves and the other is brawn bears. As substitutes, wild yaks and crows might be dangerous to you in some circumstances that I will come back to this a little bit later on. As for how to protect yourself against these dangerous animals, I think the primary point is you do not try to hurt them because the emotions of human and animals are same instinctively. [Wolves]Throughout my journey, I met wolves a total of seven times, in which I confronted them five times. As you might have known that wolves have become more and more solitary animals, it is very rare they live in a large group nowadays. Please allow me off the point a little bit and talk about the ecological problems in Chang Tang. The problem is now not the decrease of the number of the chirus but the imbalance of the whole food chain, more specifically, the number of the animals on the higher trophic levels of the food chain has not yet reached its ideal level which results in this kind of imbalance. Particularly, the pikas and the marmots who have lost their predators rapidly expanse which results in the desertification of Chang Tang. As early as the middle of last century, wolves were the dominant predators in the vast wilderness. They became a threat not only to other preys but also nomads pasturing in this land. Therefore, the then government called on people to cull back the population of the wolves in Chang Tang, which resulted in the current situation directly. The last official record about wolves attacking humans was around 1970s, which happened in Bamaoqiongzong. A team of secientists was surrounded by a group of wolves and they had to shoot them using guns. Of course, at present in Chang Tang, wolves are absolutely lonely.In this traverse, the first time I encountered a pair of wolves, one of them staying in front of me pretending to attack me while the other staying behind me. This is the standard attacking strategy of wolves. First, you should not be nervous which can be easily detected by the predators. Second, you should not retreat even an inch because this means you are the prey rather than the predator. Do not make any large movement, of course you could take a picture if you feel safe to do so. You must look into its eyes for a few minutes or even half an hour. When the wolves can not work out who you are and consider you are not posing any danger to them, then they will leave. You should remember that wolves in this land do not lack of food and it is much easy for them to catch a pika than a human. Even if being hungry, they would evaluate how easy to get you done, What you need to do is to show them that you are not interested in them and you are not afraid of them at all, let alone to show your ID card to them. As for the wolves family, really, I have not heard for ages. If you really have an encounter with them and they have no other choice, then it definitely depends on your forture. In fact, for so many year, it has been very rare to happen that wolves kill human. But the rumours are still there, in particular, the road connecting Xinjiang and Tibet.The nearest encounter with a wolf throughout my journey, no conflict at all[Brown Bears]Brown bears are real dangerous animals to human. Every year there are some accidents happened in some regions of Xinjiang on the north side of Kunkun Mountains and steppes in Northern Tibet. More than that the bears could attack your house, smash your windows, and eat your sheep. Therefore, in Northern Tibet some local councils give subsidies to the pastorarists for compensating the losses due to the bears because they are not allow to fight back and kill the bears except their lives are in great danger. Once there was a nomad taught me a method to protect yourself from bears. He told me to pick up a stick to feed the bear and the bear thinks the stick is your hand which tastes disgusting. So the bear would leave. It was so funny but the reality is to find a stick in this vast wilderness is just like you win the lottery.Bears are omonivorous animal who are generally not interested in human flesh. You can find that in most of accidents, the bears did not eat any of the human flesh rather they just smashed them for kind of fun that we could not understand. For the reason why bears kill human, one explanation is the conflict between human and wildlife in this extreme ecological environment. The nomads invade the habitats of the bears, which results in these conflicts. On the other hand, it might be because bears have quite high IQ so that they think it is much easy to kill a sheep in the cote rather than to kill a pika in the wild.I have met bears five times in my traverse, in two cases we were very close to each other. I had even walked with one of them for quite a while, just like we had a date for a walk. The fact is it is not that terrible like you might imagine. The same rules for dealing with wolves apply to bears. Never provoke dangerous animals. A bear can run at a speed of 40km/h, do you think you can compete this in a highland 5,000m above sea level?However, there is a situation where it is really dangerous, that is the encounter. It is not easy to control your instinctive reaction to the external dangers. Last year once I turned around a hill, there was a bear just in front of me. The bear of course was frightened by me with its front legs holding up, waving in the air and roaring. At that time I sat on the ground, ignoring it. The bear then left in a few minutes. Chang Tang is a vast land so that this is not that easy to happen. But if it does happen, really only God can bless you.The nearest encounter with a bear throughout my journey. This bear disappeared in a herd of wild yaks, which I had tried hard to spot, really weird About wildlife (part 2)Declaration personal experience for reference only.[Wild Yaks]I have talked about quite a few, like in the post of Day10. I will no longer talk about it.This was the funniest encounter with a solitary wild yak, who did not warn me. If I sat down, it sat down too. If I moved forward, it stopped. Could not imagine what it was thinking about.[Crows]Crows are dangerous only when you fall unconscious in the wilderness. Of course they will be the first to taste your flesh in that case. Unlike their cousinsliving in urban areas, the crows in Chang Tang have a larger body like eagles. When they fly over your head, you could feel like it is a piece of cloud. They are scavengers but like fresh meat too. It once happened that a baby was killed by crows relentlessly, let alone the lambs got killed by them. Once a nomad asked me for fireworks to scare the crows away. (They are sacred birds not to be killed by human)It is easy to defend yourself against crows, that is to keep fighting, never fall in the wilderness.A short break attracted the crows. Of course, they were miscalculating this time, photo taken last year[Strategies Adopted]At the time when I met the four soldiers in Jieshan Daban, they said there were many dangerous animals in the Northern Tibet and asked me if I had brought a shotgun. I think if they knew that I would enter Chang Tang they would definitely check if I really have a shotgun. The so-called defence facilities I brought with me were the fireworks and pepper spray. I had never used them. The fireworks were ruined and thrown away when I crossed a river and I had never opened the pepper spray. I even had never thought about this when camping in the night. The reason was I did not feel the needs. During the day time whenever I met any animals I had never touched the knife I had brought. I did not have anything to defend myself when I walked out to investigate the route. The Chang Tang is really a vast area so as to be very easy to detect anything strange.By the way, you'd better to avoid mating season's animals because even tamed rabbits could be aggressive in mating season.The thing is even if you have a gun, it is not very much helpful when bears attack you. Therefore, your attitude is most important.I can tell you something. Dogs are more dangerous than these wild animals. I had been chased by Tibetan dogs, pounced on by dogs in mating season, also besieged by a group of dogs. I really feel it is more useful to know how to defend a dog.Declaration again The above experience is from Chang Tang only. Of course, the more you prepared, the better. Day 12 (May 1), 23.8km, Camping 5117mToday was May 1 -- the Labour Day, I had been walking in some lake area marked in the map but clearly dried up. The lake basin was flat and hard so that I even pushed my bike more than 20km. Let it be the special treat for my May Day. After midday it became cloudy with growing winds. Since the Yueya Hu that I passed yesterday, there were no big lakes until Yanghu Co (My route would be between Jianshui Hu and Bairab Co), there was even no light alkaline water to drink so I had to pay extra attention not to miss any possible drinking water supply to fill up my water bag. There were a few very small lakes but all were alkaline puddles which was very shallow, whose depth was no more than the length of a half-finger. These puddles were covered with a hard shell of the mixture of salt and ice which smelled stinking and decaying when getting closer, must be toxic water I supposed. On the shore of this type of small lakes it was muddy soil and very hard to get closer.There was no sign of tundra at all.It was almost half past six when I found some snow corns in a ditch, which was the only drinking water supply of the day. There was a thin layer of melted ice on the surface of the ground near the snow corn, which was very hard to collect and was contaminated by the alkali. The snow corn was the yet melted thick snow, which was shaped like a corn by wind. The snow was quite hard and dry,porous like ice. I crushed a few snow corns, putting them into the water bag.They would be my drinking water tonight. These snow corns were the only one in today's wilderness, I reckoned the reason why they were not melted like others was the soil underneath contained large amount of ice blocks which acted as a freezer.Very strong gale in the night, it was hard to bear the sound of the vibration of the tent. Small single tent was good in the sense that it would not be blown away as long as you stayed inside. But you had to be very careful to set up the tent. I once did not pay much attention when doing so, the tent was blown away by winds, and rolling over like a Giant lantern ... I ran after it, got it back, and was exhausted. In general, it is not possible to fix the tent completely using tent pegs because they were not very much effective like large tents. It was snowing around 23 o'clock, the winds were howling from north,then the falling snow flakes landed on my tent quietly, I finally felt at peace and fell asleep. The flat ancient lake basin, assisting me walking more than 20kmSmall lake en route, toxic waterSnow corns, the only drinking water supply today Day 13 (May 2), 0km, Camping 5117mWaking up in the morning and opening the tent, the heavy snow outside must be sent by the God to force me have a break for the May Day. After lying in for a while, getting up and walking on the snowy ground out I went to have a look around. As first sight there were a herd of chirus. They were plainly to be spotted because they looked like a clear black straight line in the while snow. I returned to get my camera and then followed them to take some pictures. But they were very much alert and kept a quite long distance from me. I felt they were a group of pregnant females, instinctively protecting themselves from any potential harm. I was no longer short of water, the snow gave me a precious supply of drinking water. The problem was that they were very petrol consuming. I tool 8.6 litre of petrol and the oil stove was Duola's MSR. The pot was of 1.5 litre, mainly for boiling water. After several days' experiments, I found that the liquid water needed 16mins and 14-15mins to boil in the morning and evening, respectively. For ice, it would take 35-40mins while for snow it took 45-50mins. Melting snow was a very time and petrol consuming process so if I had a choice between snow and light alkaline water, most of time I would go with the latter. Lying inside the tent, listening to musics,I smoked a cigarette while gazing at the more and more chirus around me. Because it was very cold I had been wearing my shoes all the time. Now I just put my bare feet under the warm sun for some fresh air. I found three cuts in my hands and one in my sole. The cuts were about 4cm in length, looked terrible but it was actually all right really. Half of my toes were injured by to much walking, quite painful. I fetched my medicine bag and found I only got four patches of plasters, a serious mistake. One of the cuts in my hand had never been cured until I was out of this desolate land so as to feel like this finger would drop from my hand at any time. The others quickly recovered in a few days then new cuts appeared elsewhere. This process occurred periodically. I felt that it was somewhat related to the cold, dry weather and the lack of vitamins. The snow rapidly disappeared, which is unique phenomenon in Chang Tang. Because of the low air humidity and the high radiation from the sun, the snow was evaporating very fast, much quicker than the melting speed. Owing to this, the ground was generally still dry after the snow disappeared. In most cases, it would be only 2/5 left in the afternoon around 2 to 3 o'clock and small patches of ground could be seen. It would be completely all right for walking the next day. On the third day there could be some snow left in somewhere the sunlight hard to reach. So generally it could give you three days of water supply after a heavy snow like this. One of the pannier was broken, the most expensive one from deuter series, supposed to be waterproof. I will come back to it at some point later. Everything was covered by snow, no way out Lying in the middle of Chang Tang, listening to Tian Zhen's songs, and smoking Baisha cigarettes, what else can you ask for? The pregnant female chirus in migration, probably heading to Heishi Beihu to give birth(
