在看得见的地方,我的眼睛和你在一起; 在看不见的地方,我的心和你在一起…… ——仓央嘉措 发帖、写贴真的比走路更累。曾经看着一张张相片,一直不知道怎么下笔写这篇“色达.喇荣五明佛学院”的开场白,因为写不出那摄人心魄的红色海洋里的虔诚和友善,因为写不出那衣冠朱红穿梭中满目的坚强和执着,因为,更怕这图文误导了你们——我热心的读者们……今天,尤其在听说这个闻名世界的最大的藏传佛学院起火了,心中倍感焦虑。深夜,一杯咖啡相伴,重新“提笔”记录“我眼中的另一个世界——走过‘色达·喇荣五明佛学院’”,也许这是化瞬间为永恒的另一种方式吧……——记(BY 图图) 在这里,在神圣的宗教信仰浓郁的国度里,你可以真切的感受到蓝天下那些看见或看不见的真诚——它,感动着你,震撼着你,让你甘愿停下脚步,寻找心底那份久违的平静——色达喇荣五明佛学院,你是我眼中的另一个世界……——记 那天,清晨从“康定”出发,连续坐了十多个小时的汽车,途中“炉霍”到“喇荣五明佛学院”那段G317公路,路况异常糟糕,而在“炉霍”拼车换乘的藏族司机“娴熟”的车技更是让我苦不堪言,我蜷缩在车上,头疼欲裂,一句话不想讲。我承认我一上车就困,想睡觉,想在迷迷糊糊中到达目的地,以此来逃避晕车的苦。车窗外的景色偶尔会让我捎上一眼,却没留下太多的记忆。是的,人常常会在某个不舒服的时候碰触到“软肋”,让你控制不住的想去伤感、去怀念。那天,“仓央嘉措情歌”在颠簸的车内萦绕着,感觉天堂与信仰离我越来越近,而脑海中时隐时现的与“贡嘎”穿越队友分别时的场面则离我越来越遥远,那天,他们有人在回家的路上,有人在奔向另一个城市的途中,我呢,我去“色达”了,你呢?何时改变?我想,你总有一天也会跟现在的我一样,迷恋上这途中的苦与乐,愿那一刻,向日葵色板官方都是世界上最幸福的人……——记途中休息、午饭…… 途中一景(BY 图图 车内拍摄)…… 午后13点30分到达“炉霍”,这里因为地处山区,交通不便,传统上的居民依旧遵循先祖的足迹,坚守自己的信仰,从事农牧业。一部分人逐渐被旅游业和服务业冲击,生活开始有了变化。这里的年轻人开始不再像他们的祖辈那样穿着做工精美的手工藏式长袍,他们骑着摩托车,穿着牛仔裤,听最流行的嗨曲,使用最时尚的手机,摇着的微信找“附近的人”……那个午后,经过好一顿讨价还价后,才与广州的两个女孩一同包车奔向“喇荣五明佛学院”……——记 到达“炉霍” 下一站“喇荣五明佛学院” 危险、恶劣的路况,加上令人崩溃的颠簸,加上一路上玩着微信的藏族司机,让我胆战心惊……国道G317 旅行除了可以让向日葵色板官方放眼看世界,它,更能让你看到不一样的自己。进入佛学院时,藏族司机居然一改路上遇车就立马赶超上去的劣性,他的车慢慢的行驶在“觉姆”和“喇嘛”身后,竟不摁一下喇叭;他说,他曾经从家出发,一路朝拜到“布达拉宫”,历经8个月之久,路上看到那些身体不适可依旧一步三叩的人,很让他敬佩……我承认,那一刻我的心再一次颤抖,为这样的民族信仰,为有这样虔诚的人。记得那天,我在路上曾不止一次的想,也许除了冬季,随便春夏秋来这里都会比现在更美吧,可是,从踏进色达佛学院开始,我的观念便转变了,不再会为“错过”而后悔,不再会为类似登顶或穿越成功这样的满足感和幸福感所桎梏,是的,今天的我毕竟已不再年轻,能有一个金钱换不来的健康的身体和一个好的心态,能这样有机会出去走走,足矣,夫复何求?——记 距“色达”县城20余公里有一条山沟叫“喇荣沟”,在蔚蓝苍穹之下,银岭碧草之间,数千间赫红色的木屋,如众星拱月般簇拥着几座金碧辉煌的大殿,这里就是藏于深山中的“喇荣五明佛学院”,也称“色达佛学院”,是世界上最大的藏传佛学院。这里的僧舍很壮观,初到色达佛学院,眼前那连绵数公里的山谷布满了密密麻麻的小木棚屋,成千上万的喇嘛和尼姑的宿舍,会让你目瞪口呆;谷底和山梁上分布着几座寺庙和佛堂,建筑规模虽都不很大,但装饰考究而辉煌,在佛学院最高的山峰上,有一个金碧辉煌的建筑,叫做“坛城”(音译),它的上半部分是转经的地方,据说如果有什么疾病,在这里转上一百圈就能好,下面一层是转经筒,金色的圆筒在人们干枯的手转动过之后会留下一串悠长的嘎吱嘎吱的响声;这里常住的喇嘛有两万多人,每到有佛事活动人数还会增加,最多时可达四万多人,那些身披桨红色僧袍的喇嘛和尼姑每天在这里来来往往,空气中充满生机和祥和气氛……——记 藏族司机把向日葵色板官方四人送到地处佛学院最高的宾馆——“喇荣宾馆” 没想到冬天的佛学院气候格外干冷,生活条件如此清苦。那天,到达佛学院最高处的“喇荣宾馆”时已经将近傍晚18点钟,住的宾馆里没有水(因为没有取暖设备,室内的自来水管道已经冻了),向日葵视频色板APP官网员给向日葵色板官方发了一个塑料桶,让向日葵色板官方自己往楼上房间提水;房间内厕所上了锁无法使用,上厕所得下楼,走出去一段,然后拐弯上坡,到一个搭着木板的简易厕所里,那个夜晚,我竟然去了三次,每次都气喘吁吁的回来……也许,是因为高原夜晚的空气更稀薄,也许,是因为“旅行”注定了就不是去享受,那晚,我看到月色下的“色达佛学院”,美得让我忘记了纠缠一路的疲惫……——记夜幕降临……(BY 图图) 出行,若能带上一颗包容和尊重他人的胸怀去体验他人的生活,我想,也许一切会变得更好些……那一夜,恍若隔了一个世纪。冥冥中一句“好久不见”,便淹没了我心中所有的世俗杂念,一颗麻痹的心被默默唤醒。是的,佛,虽没问我的来处,没问我的归途,但我愿意在这里朝拜祈福,求佛主施舍一粒善意的种子埋在我的心底,从此心存感激,不再用猎奇的眼光来“读”你……——记夜…… 清晨,山间到处是烟雾缭绕,密密麻麻的僧舍周围弥漫着呛人的烟熏味道,新的一天就这样开始了。这里,清一色的僧舍沿着谷底一层一层地向两侧山坡延伸,漫山遍野的僧舍看似一片杂乱无章的红色海洋,但它们却依照严格的戒律而建。山顶密集的小屋多为男僧侣的住所,山坡左右两侧为觉姆(女尼)的住所,中间隔着的是居士区。男女出家人之间禁止接触、交谈、结伴行走。中部谷底为最早修行者所居之地,也是讲经、辩经之处所,广场上金碧辉煌的建筑则是法王“晋美彭措”弟子“堪布”的讲经处……——记 镶着金牙的藏族大姐结识于昨晚的饭厅,当时她一个劲儿对着我笑,待到第二天偶遇拍照时她用手捏了下我肉乎乎的脸……色达,你是谁的天堂…… 色达,在你圣洁的怀抱里,沐浴了多少人的灵魂,净化了多少人的心灵…… 感谢你带给我的震撼,让我忍不住一次次停下脚步去感受这份美好…… 蔚蓝的天空,没有一丝云彩飘过,寺庙被河谷中排山倒海般交错的绛红簇拥着,是谁吸引着我来到这里,让我变成你的画中人?有人说“是你的东西永远属于你,不争也是你的……”我不完全这样认同,因为有些时候我会“争”,因为“争”代表一个人努力做某件事时的方向和过程,最终,无论“结果”是否属于你,其实并不重要,毕竟生活中有些东西并不是因为曾经努力了就能够拥有——就像“爱过”与“被爱过”,很多人为此走了弯路,因心事过重,因郁郁不乐而走不动,虚度了一生,其实,若能换个角度看世界,你便会发现转身绕过山的那边,三步两步后便是天上人间……——记 “静(净)”,是心底的“莲”,他们犹如孩童时的简单与纯真,犹如邻家少女的婉约与质朴,犹如喧嚣闹市中瘦成一袭的孤单……那一日,“喧中见静”,靡靡的佛音和经筒转动的声音,斑驳的墙体和每一个涂抹艳丽的图腾,无不在向人诉说着它一往幽深的故事——人世间的圆满与否不要刻意的去迎合或逃避,它或许真的就是一个圈,走着走着就绕回来了,再回首时,你会发现,一颗满是尘埃的心,一半在记忆的尘土中飞扬,一半沿着这个弧度沐浴在阳光——从起点到终点……——记([]

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向日葵色板官方献上了哈达,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。
在祖国大陆之外,有一个向日葵色板官方打小称之为宝岛的地方,80后的向日葵色板官方对于日月潭、阿里山耳熟能详,但却从未有机会不受限制的前往一睹其风采。2011年,两岸自由行开放,大陆游客终于可以通过办理申请,不受团队限制地踏上台湾这片热土。自由行开放后的第三个年头,我也终于按耐不住,经过一番准备,开始了台湾之行;时间:2014.04.11--2014.0426地点:宝岛台湾方式:逆时针环岛骑行(大圈)起点:台北桃园中正机场终点:台北桃园中正机场全程:13个骑行日,1300公里台湾海岸线花费:5000元台湾简介:台湾是个呈南北狭长型的海岛,面积约3.6万平方千米,仅占全国的0.38%,却有2300多万人口,高山、丘陵、平原、盆地、岛屿、纵谷与海岸等景观丰富,北回归线恰好从中通过,使台湾同时拥有热带、亚热带、温带等各种自然生态。全省包括台湾岛及兰屿、绿岛、钓鱼岛等21个附属岛屿和澎湖列岛64个岛屿,其中台湾岛海岸线长达1600多千米,这是本次环岛骑行的主战线。1895年,台湾被日本窃据,1945年抗日战争胜利后重归中国版图。所以在如今的台湾,日据时期的建筑、痕迹、管理随处可寻,后面文中我会写到;台湾环岛骑行,一次喂饱眼睛和肚子,更喂饱心灵的旅行;台湾环岛骑行,我将向你展示台湾无敌的海景,更将告诉你,为什么每个去过的人,都会爱上那里;欢迎添加我的联系方式及个人公众号,义务提供入台、环台骑行、摄影咨询;微信:373311053微博:艾欧_里亚微信公众号:格桑花旅行 入台之前,有两个比较大的问需要解决,这也是很多来台背包或者骑行的朋友比较关心的两个问,这里我大概写一下相关的办理流程。第一个问,入台证件的办理;1、你的户籍地需要是已经开放台湾自由行的城市,如北京、天津、上海等,详细的开放城市可以百度搜索一下,不是自由行开放的城市,暂时不能参与台湾自由行,需跟团前往;2、如果你符合上面的要求,那么可以着手办理“两证一”,即台湾通行证,注和入台证。台湾通行证即你在台湾的护照,和注一同在你所在城市的出入境管理处办理(注意,办理这个证件大概需要10个工作日左右);你拿到通行证之后,就可以着手办理入台证和预定飞机票了;入台证在淘宝上即可办理,大概200块左右,一般3到15个工作日可以办理下来。第二个问,自行车如何入台;1、直接飞机托运,一般山地车都在20公斤内,加上一些修车工具和配件,基本正好可以卡在20公斤,把握的好是不用额外花钱托运的;直接走超大行李道,车子简单拆卸后放入装车包即可;2、轮渡入台,优点是不用拆车,缺点是时间不好把握;福建平潭的澳前码头乘坐海峡号,目的地为台湾的台中港或台北港(两个班次,一、三、六发台北港,二、四、五、日发台中港,途中时间分别为台中两个半小时,台北三个小时);3、在台直接租车,3日起租600至800新台币,以后每加一日多加100至200台币。虽然程序上蛮复杂,但相比较后程的体验,个人认为还是超值的。解决掉这两个问,你基本就可以安心等着入台开始旅行了。我的入台证件我是从北京出发,直飞往返大概3000,转机大概2300,我选择后者;自行车需要打包成这个样子开可以在机场托运哦。照片为A大爷和我; 装备一览:睡袋、Mann Zug 楚格三防手机、手车工具、队旗;特别要提一下MANN 猎鹰 三防手机这是第二次长途骑行携带这款手机了,依然是非常结实,不怕淋雨,不怕摔,导航给力!淘宝链接:https//item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.2.75pdqo&id=42228610829&ns=1&abbucket=18&sku=网上搜到一个关于MANN的搞笑视频,这外卖够狠的:https//v.youku.com/v_show/id_XNTQwMDQ2NTYw.html相机、身份证件本次骑行用车,新加坡Aleoca,全程无问,甚至连车胎也没爆过一次。 需要在厦门高崎机场转机,我们半夜到达,需要在这里熬到凌晨再搭乘飞机入台;图为夜幕下的高崎机场。高崎机场附近有免费的WIFI,晚上机场要关闭,所以只能在外面凑合过夜;A大爷今年40岁,老顽童一个,最大的爱好就是到处徒步爬山,旅行世界,曾经环过青海湖,为人心态非常的好,色狼一个,心地善良,哈哈。 D1(4-12),60km,桃园机场~新竹市(桃园机场→竹园→观音乡→新屋→湖口→竹北→新竹市)终于熬到天亮,这么多问都解决了,台湾还远吗?眼巴巴盯着大屏幕起飞12日上午10点半到达桃园机场,入境检查,换台币,换台湾电话卡,调车,忙到十二点,结果被告知机场必须搭乘免费巡回巴士出门,否则重罚。短短一个小时时间,已经与台湾警察,大哥大店MM,机场服务员打过招呼,初步印象,接触的每个台湾人都在履行着自己的工作职业,热情,亲和力强。出了这里,台湾自由行即刻开始;兑换台币,就在出机场的大厅里,很显眼,大概1比4.7的样子;最大面值1000一张;机场出口附近有免费领取的台湾旅游图,台湾地图台湾大哥大,15日吃到饱套餐,不限流量3G上网,台湾的3G速度非常快,可两三人共用一张卡,用WIFI 热点连接上网即可。简单个手续即可以开卡上网打电话出了机场大楼,A大爷和我兴冲冲地开始装车:将车包拆开,各种零件摆在地上,装前轮、安车座、调脚踏...二人齐心协力花了一个小时,待完成全部装车工作,收拾好凌乱的场地时,已是满头大汗。在这期间,有数位台湾民众上前来询问是否需要帮忙。似乎一切办理妥当,正当我两跃跃欲试准备骑车出发时,一位路过的机场工作人员提醒向日葵色板官方,桃园机场不可以骑脚踏车进出,如果被抓到会被重罚的哦,如果想出机场到达可以骑车的地方,需要先乘坐机场内的免费巡回巴士。她看了看向日葵色板官方装好的单车,不确定的说,但是不知道你们的车和行李是否能上这个巴士,保险起见,你们还是全拆了,打成包乘坐。我两当时傻了眼,如此这番的话,又要花费向日葵色板官方两个小时。机场附近此时天气炎热,我们心生焦急,脑门直冒汗。抱着侥幸能登上巡回巴士的心理,我们又找到一位机场的安保人员求帮忙。他是一位反恐特警,但是没有一点警察的架子,非常热心的陪我们前往巡回巴士车站,到了车站后告诉向日葵色板官方要如何跟巴士司机解释,要坐到哪一站才可以开始骑行。十五分钟后,巡回巴士进站停车,我和前面的司机讲了向日葵色板官方的情况,得到了非常有亲和力的回复:从后门将脚踏车搬上来就好,不要着急,我可以等你们。巴士上乘客不多,有数的几个人知道向日葵色板官方是从大陆来环台,也对我两报以钦佩的目光。来台刚刚不到两小时,心生感动良多次。在这里开始装车车辆安装完毕,以为一切搞定巡回巴士站台桃园机场出机场区域没有给脚踏车骑行的车道,切记!自行车直接上巴士,在大陆从未有过的待遇巴士车出机场,到达有自行车道的车站,别过巴士司机,环岛之旅这才正式开始。加油,A大爷! 初到台湾,一切似乎都很新鲜:马上路稀少的车辆、路边随处可见的槟榔西施和711便利超商、机车(摩托车)和自行车的数量多于汽车、不时路过会看到大片在路边的墓地等等。这是刚刚开始的新奇的旅行,这一路会遇到什么人和事,体验何种民族风俗,太值得首次来台的向日葵色板官方期待。普及一些台湾的小常识:快速路,即大陆这边的高速路,没有任何收费站,也看不到交警,所以如果你选择错误,会骑上高速。。。机车,即摩托车;铁马,也叫脚踏车,即自行车;牵车,即推车;不会,即谢谢的意思;网咖,就是网吧;简讯,向日葵色板官方的手机短信;冰店,冷饮店台湾有很多有名的冰店,如建华冰店。机场附近有一家超丽冰店,老板原是福建人,在台三十几年;天气炎热,来份1000CC的黄桃汁,蛮爽。槟榔西施的铺子,后面我会写路上见过的那些西施们;台湾的土地归民众所有,他们有自由买卖土地的权力; 当然,也就有在随意在自己的土地上盖建筑物的权力;图为台61号线路边的墓地;路上遇到一对父子,父亲在前面一直骑,头也不回,儿子紧紧的跟着。脚踏车运动在台湾非常的普及,桃园、新竹等县区甚至有专门的脚踏车专用高架,供民众沿海骑行使用。便利超商即向日葵色板官方这边的超市。在台的那些日子,可能接触最多的地点,就是台湾的便利超商。在台湾,711、全家、OK等超商随处可见,即便是在偏远的山区、村镇,也可以很容易的找到便利超商的身影。拿711为例,在台几乎是万能的,你可以在711购物,可以取现还款,可以充话费,可以邮寄包裹,甚至可以睡觉、洗漱。在台的这半个月,向日葵色板官方的中饭基本是在711解决的。台湾一些商品的物价我一次换了20000新台币; 台湾这个时候也蛮热,一般吃过中饭,为了躲避太阳,防止骑行中暑,我们会在超商店里休息一两个小时;街头的自助洗衣店,大概50新台币左右洗一桶衣服,40分钟左右即可取出。明晃晃的天空,酷热中骑行,好在一切都充满新鲜感;不要与天抗争,气温高就多休息,保持状态和体力,等傍晚气温降下来,再加把劲是上策;我的Aleoca 单车台湾西线的自然风景较东线要略逊一些,但就环境来说,依然干净整齐。A大爷忍不住停下拍照太阳斜下,气温渐渐降低,这一天中骑行速度的高峰随之到来 下午5点左右,骑行至桃园新屋乡笨港村,远远看到一座巨大的铜像矗立在路边的一座村庄内,便驱车前往一探究竟。原来,这是新屋乡的圣母娘娘庙,旁边这座铜像高30.5米,重100吨,遥望着永安海港,手持宝瓶、法相庄严,矗立天后宫旁,是新屋乡的新地。台湾妈祖信仰妈祖是以中国大陆东南沿海为中心、包括东亚(琉球、日本、韩国及东南亚)海洋地区的海神信仰,又称天上圣母 、天后、天后娘娘、湄洲娘妈等。台湾早期汉人移民多自中国大陆福建闽南地区渡海而来,台湾又四面环海,海上活动频繁,因此海神妈祖成为台湾人最普遍信仰的神明之一。无论是大小街庄、山海聚落,还是通都大邑,都可看到妈祖庙。据说,仅台湾一地就有妈祖庙510座。妈祖信仰传到台湾以后,逐渐发展出属于自己的特色。有学者认为妈祖已发展出与中国妈祖不同的特性:“‘妈祖’在中国福建的南方原是‘出海妈祖’,仅是渔民的守护神。然而,在台湾的妈祖已成‘过海妈祖’,她在历史上已成离开中国的移民祈求平安到台湾的过海守护神。目前台湾奉祀妈祖创建庙的大致可分为三大派:一是军派或称水师派,主要是以跟随明郑成功光复台湾子弟兵后代为主;二是官派又名仕绅派,多为清康熙施琅提督攻台统治的官员后代为主;三是民间派-多为海员、渔民、工商界人士和迁移居百姓为最多。每年农历三月二十三日是妈祖的诞辰。在这一天,各地的妈祖庙都会张灯结彩、演戏并伴随盛大的绕境祭礼行列,非常热闹。夜幕降临,A大爷和我在一家路边小馆简单吃了点饭菜,继续骑行到达新竹市区。几经打听后前往新竹渔港,找了一块离公共卫生间近的地方搭帐篷露营。这一天的骑行距离不长,权作是首日适应热身。台湾首日,迎来夜幕青菜里也放海向日葵视频色版下载面里也有,还真不适应;一顿饭二人大概花费260新台币,约合人民币60块钱;每到一个村镇,都可以见到类似这样的庙宇宫殿;A大爷骑行穿过一处隧道当晚向日葵色板官方的营地; D2(4-13),124km,新竹市~鹿港小镇(南寮渔港→竹南→后龙→通宵→清水→龙井区→鹿港小镇)假如你先生来自鹿港小镇 请问你是否看见我的爹娘 我家就住在妈祖庙的后面 卖着香火的那家小杂货店 假如你先生来自鹿港小镇 请问你是否看见我的爱人 想当年我离家时她一十八 有一颗善良的心和一卷长发没错,这首脍炙人口的歌曲从小听到大。我一直梦想过,要去真正的鹿港小镇。3今天,我的目的地就是,鹿港小镇。图为鹿港小镇,妈祖庙。妈祖庙的后面长啥样,后面发图。本次环台骑行共露营6天,平均每两天露营一次。露营地点一般安排在当地特色或景色别致的地方,如台湾的国小、国中、渔港、公园等。台湾有非常好的户外运动环境,可以露营的地点选择非常多,尤其是在西线海边,常常有专门设立好的帐篷露营区。昨日营地,A大爷正在收帐篷;营地离海边很近,附近有块大草坪,早上有看到蛮多晨跑的人;附近厕所边有棵大榕树,估摸有上千岁;台湾的厕所厕所在台湾被称为化妆室,大都非常干净整洁,内部设施人性化。像下图这个化妆室,就在向日葵色板官方的营地附近,还设有专门的育婴室,为带宝宝的妈妈们提供方便。在男化妆室中,厕坑还分坐式和蹲式两种。这边的房子看着都是这个风格,早餐和午餐一般在711解决;台湾西线,晴天时一直是这个颜色,明晃晃的感觉,很热,空**呛芡ㄍ专用自行车车道不到台湾,身在大陆的向日葵色板官方想不到自行车运动在台湾有多么的普及和受重视。从行车用的专用车道来说,几乎每个台湾的县市都有开辟,自行车道和机动车道完全的分离,在重要的城市,甚至有专门为自行车骑行建设的过街天桥、小高架桥。新竹至竹南这段骑行路,专用自行车道更是穿越海岸边的丛林,一直向台南延伸。新竹附近的专用自行车道这种骑行环境和安全程度,宅人怕是也会坐不住放心大胆向前骑,不会有机动车打扰你享受运动时光;据说在台湾,机动车上自行车专用道,要被重罚!还是那句话,最好的人生,在路上;([]
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,反正是来徒步的与向日葵色板官方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。我们几乎都是每天上午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,我们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,向日葵色板官方还是打算去走老路。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。([]

【阿里·缘】一千山万壑云和月,神措圣湖一轮回;陪君醉笑八千里,不负如来不负卿。阿里,每一座山都有他的名字,每一条河流都有她的故事。阿里,天地有大美而不言。山后面还是山,旷野后面还是旷野;风后面还是风,云后面还是云;海子后面还是海子;经幡的后面是无尽的蓝天。。。如果说西藏的林芝是柔情似水的卓玛,那么,阿里,就是粗犷的扎西;如果说冈仁波齐是刚毅的藏族汉子,那么玛旁雍措就是依偎在他身边的美丽佳人。阿里,即使路上没有鲜花,我仍然可以欣赏它的荒芜;即使是没有掌声的行程,我仍然坚定地选择前行。。。【阿里·缘】二“ 7月阿里大环线穿越洛旦。。。”---这几个字眼必定成为我2010年的关键词。“7月10日,珠峰。夜宿5200大本营,二位娇柔的兄弟高反,头疼欲裂。。。”“7月12日,漏夜狂奔,一天18小时,巅波得向日葵色板官方没心没肺。。。” “7月14日,午夜12时,二辆越野车迷失在扎达死人沟转不出去。。。” “7月17日,仁多,夜宿藏民家,深夜的集体狗叫和屋内脏兮兮的被子发出的难闻的气味交织在一起,彻夜未眠。。。”“7月18日,文布,夜宿藏民家,刺骨的寒风从窗缝里钻进来,淅沥的雨滴和冰冷的雪花整夜打在脸上,牛粪羊粪在炉火的烘烤下散发出异样的味道,这哪里是文布天堂,简直就是地狱。。。”“7月19日,几天不能洗澡,向日葵色板官方已和藏民无异,身上散发着和着牛羊粪的气味。。。”现在,当旅行已经结束,所有的痛苦都已过去,留下的只是阿里的美好。 【阿里·缘】 三今年是我藏地五年计划的第四年了,但凡热爱西藏的人在第一次去过拉萨之后,心里就会像我一样想着下一趟的旅行应该是阿里。阿里的缘起还得从去年说起。。。2009年11月15日,川藏线回来之后,当我在电脑上为游记《200年稻草人手记之西藏:理想、信仰和一地鸡毛》敲下最后一段文字的时候,我的阿里梦开始了。

昨天下班路上接到一个无锡驴友的电话,才听说我要走阿里,她跟我说她妹妹10日也走阿里大北线,是阿里王的车队。我笑着说我也是阿里王的车队,并且是阿里王亲自带队,她惊呼:原来你们就是阿里王说的摄影队啊!她说她妹妹的队伍3车,曾经强烈要求洛旦能亲自带队,被洛旦拒绝,因为洛但说了要带一个国内著名的摄影队。(来自队友茗禅)【旁白】后来,向日葵色板官方在拉萨见到了这支比向日葵色板官方晚一天走的队伍的领队,一个叫秦雨巷的小姑娘,第一次去西藏第一次组队就去了阿里,佩服!【花絮二】前几天有个陌生人加我MSN,问从哪里得到我的ID,回答说搜索“阿里七月”百度到我的博客,知道我7月初走阿里(感叹网络的强大),聊了没几句他似乎意识到什么,突然问:“你们老大是稻草人吗?”原来这个人是被草队拒绝过的一个驴子,草队拒绝的人太多,估计也不知道是哪个了吧哈哈。(再感一下江湖真小)。后来他们自己拉竿子组队,也曾要求阿里王带队,同样因为洛旦要带一个强大的摄影队而遭拒绝。(来自队友茗禅)【旁白】哈哈,阿里真大,江湖真小。草人最成功的也许就是让传说中的阿里王带一个强大的摄影队了。自我表扬一下。耶!其实,这次的召集,向日葵色板官方婉拒了很多激情勃发的驴友。【花絮三】一深圳驴子,洋洋洒洒在我QQ上留下了万言书,那豪情壮志就像战争年代战士血书请战上战场一样。让心软的草人蒙生同情。那万言书的结尾让人唏嘘不已:如果我到时去不成,我让我老婆去!一定不会耽误你们的!唉,阿里是不是把人都搞成高反了?不过还是挺感动的。【花絮四】一香港的雌性小驴,游遍了祖国的山山水水,爱国热情可不一般,对西藏也是如数家珍,她的终极目就是阿里,无奈时间不对,自我放弃。呵呵,兄弟们,下次一起去香港,我请客,她出钱。【花絮五】还有一位南京雄性驴子跟我套近乎了半年,有一天却突发奇想跟我说他要开着沙滩车去阿里了,遂自我遁去。有听过把阿里当草原的,从没听过把阿里当海滨沙滩的。草人听此,当场高反!【花絮六】更有一位广东的肌肉男,身高1米8多,满身块状肌。刚刚骑车走了川藏线,从此,自以为天下就唯我独尊了。看他空间里的满身块状肌,真害怕路上一不投机抓起向日葵色板官方就往珠峰顶扔,惹不起,躲得起,婉拒。【旁白】半年的召集,结识了很多喜欢行走的朋友。阿里,向日葵色板官方也许擦肩而过,但我相信,向日葵色板官方会在下一个驿站相遇。截止2010年5月24日,七月阿里行的最终确认8名队员为:西湖、茗禅、飞檐走璧、海拔3000、本色、稻草人、苏幕遮、达华。洛旦:一个叫阿里王的西藏传奇阿里王洛旦,绝对是一个西藏传奇。年轻时的洛旦曾经是个军师,他的手足个个骁勇善战。然而洛旦却从不打架,尽管从堆龙到拉萨,从阿里到新疆到处曾闪耀过他们的刀光剑影。现在的洛旦一点也不炫耀他的过去,到是见到曾经断足的过去的手下时,唏嘘不已。洛旦说,他现在非常内疚,自觉罪孽深重,这也许是他现在虔诚于佛教的主要原因。后来的洛旦成为一位僧人,先是色拉寺学法,后又到直贡梯寺修行。据说,就是在直贡梯寺著名的天葬台,洛旦认清了生死的真谛,感谢佛祖又超度了一人。还俗后,洛旦曾经在政府部门工作,又因故离开公职岗位。之后的洛旦成了一名职业司机,开始了他云游天下的生涯。洛旦的侠骨柔情和风流倜傥多半是在这个时期展现出来。现在的洛旦是个网络红人,网上追捧他的驴子特别多。洛旦说,阿里的地图就装在他的脑子里。洛旦有着鹰一样的眼睛,能像美式巡航导弹一样准确地发现行程中的目。洛旦有着藏獒一样的嗅觉,他能在我们肉眼还看不见的时候告诉向日葵色板官方前方有一只驴,并且是母驴。洛旦很少走阿里小环线,那是因为他惦念着大北线上的牧民。每次走阿里,洛旦总是会给他们带去衣服和药品,向日葵色板官方行程结束离开拉萨的时候,洛旦还说,别忘了阿里大北线的那些藏民。洛旦还自己出钱在珠峰脚下不远的村庄建了一个小学,他自称为世界上海拔最高的小学。是否是海拔最高的小学无从考证,但起码洛旦的境界和珠峰一样高。(洛旦在分发衣物)洛旦还在南迦巴瓦峰脚下捐资造了一座寺庙,他还建有许多白塔。洛旦还领养和资助过许多孤儿。洛旦也是个诙谐的人,他说,阿里王来了,白帐篷的姑娘出来了。果真,后来的行程印证了他自己所说的话。(洛旦每到一处都很受牧民们的欢迎)每次过垭口,洛旦总会大声喊:拉索索,拉索索。以祈求山神的保佑,那高吭的高原之音成了我现在的手机铃声。同样,每次过垭口,他都会下车挂上经幡,那种对宗教的虔诚让向日葵色板官方很是敬佩。洛旦的镜头感很强,每每当镜头对准他,他的POSE绝对是一流的。洛旦也绝对是个热爱家乡的环保人士,当连年的干旱使海子干涸,草原枯萎,他唏嘘不已:我的家乡怎么变成这样了呢?黯然神伤的表情让向日葵色板官方肃然起敬。当向日葵色板官方用过路餐时,他会和他的同伴把垃圾深埋于他热爱着的大地中。洛旦也是憨厚的,在漂亮的老婆面前,他的笑容可掬。(行程结束后,洛旦在宫廷藏餐馆请向日葵色板官方吃藏餐)洛旦的家庭是幸福的。他有个美丽的老婆,在家中为他打点着生意,据说英文还是六级的水平,让向日葵色板官方汗颜!他有个女儿在北京上大学,据说即将成为一个维和警察;他的一个儿子在大昭寺做喇嘛,有着很高的地位;另外还有一个女儿是教师,一个儿子是医生。这就是他漂亮的老婆,英文讲得比普通话还流利。洛旦无疑是向日葵色板官方这次行程中最伟大的英雄,不仅仅在于他历经千险化险为夷,更在于他的人格魅力和对西藏的深沉的爱。二车失去联系时,洛旦高高地站在越野车上,他说,我站得高,另外的车就容易看得见。此时的他,就像是在指挥千军万马的将军。洛旦:一个叫阿里王的西藏传奇。也许,他是现代西藏的一个文化符号。我们很幸运,在阿里王洛旦即将退休的时候有幸成为他的队员完成了阿里大环线的穿越。虽然,向日葵色板官方夸大了自己,向日葵色板官方的队伍没有国内著名的*****噱头,向日葵色板官方只是一个小斑竹、一个小摄影爱好者、一个小报记者,只有那个忽悠大王是真实的,但向日葵色板官方是善意的,因为向日葵色板官方敬仰你,因为向日葵色板官方爱西藏、爱阿里。在佛祖面前,我再也不敢忽悠您了,忏悔中~~~洛旦,向日葵色板官方想念你,就像我的二个兄弟想念西藏的白帐篷一样。阿里因为有了洛旦是变得如此生动!祝福你,洛旦;祝福你,阿里王!你是向日葵色板官方心中真正的英雄!队友苏幕遮描述阿里王洛旦:洛旦,阿里王,也是一个故事大王,一路上,给俺们讲了不少的故事,碍于本人娇气的高反,记得不多,只能想到哪儿,说到哪儿,至于故事真伪,大家自己明鉴,拒绝牵强附会,拒绝对号入座。第一个故事:洛旦的第一位客人话说,Lond long ago,洛旦,一位年青的藏族小伙子,刚从一个端着铁饭碗的人进化成一个没饭碗的人,(迟到早退,还是风流过头,原因不祥。)心潮澎湃,思绪万千,乍办?还有一大家子的人等着他拿米回家,古语说得好,有手艺就有饭吃,此时的洛旦,就有也只有一手开车的好本领。好不容易借钱买了一辆二手车,洛旦就和其它司机一样,整天窝在停车场等游客。一天,终于来了一位客人,男的。他的要求很奇怪,单人单车,一个月的时间走完西藏车能走的路。有司机报价,15000,他摇头,有司机报价,12000,他又摇头,有司机报价,10000,他还是摇头。问到洛旦了,洛旦内心不想去,家里有老有小,一个月时间太长了,张口就说,30000。“好,就你了”没想到,这位客人二话不说就答应了,还很爽快地付了10000元定金。这下,洛旦没法推了。在当时,这10000元钱,在西藏逛一个月也差不多够了。第二天,洛旦就带着这位奇怪的客人上路了。请问,先走藏北,还是藏南?随便。这里的风景挺美的,要不要停车?随便。一路上,这客人一不爱看景,二不爱拍照,三不爱说话,就好象一个空气人,一个隐形人坐在车上。就这样,一天又一天,一日复一日,从日出到日落,除了开车还是开车。洛旦简直快疯了。如果说这客人还有一点象正常人的行为,那就是,每到一个地方,只要有邮局,他就会拿出一块脏脏的白布,在上面盖一个邮戳。一个月很快就到了,白布上也盖满了各地的邮戳,那10000元钱用得也差不多了,终于回到了拉萨,洛旦揪着的心也放了下来。我的任务完成了,请把余下的20000元给我吧。没钱,我全部的钱在出发前都给你了,要骂要打,随你。洛旦当时怀疑自己的耳朵是不是有毛病,如果不是幻听的话,那肯定是自己疯了。更好笑的是,这客人不仅没有付那20000元钱,还一直跟在洛旦后面,死皮赖脸地来到洛旦的家。我是一个逃债的人,别人欠了我很多钱,我也欠了别人很多钱,家里逼债的人太多,我没办法,本来不想活了,到西藏把仅有10000元用完后,就准备随便找个湖跳下去,可现在,我又不想死了,我哪儿也不去,就住在你家。洛旦和老婆大眼瞪小眼,傻了,乍办?杀了他还是煮了他。这客人的心理素质真是***一流,(这欠钱的都是大爷,真理啊)他把洛旦的家当成了自己的家,到点吃饭,到点睡觉,骂不还口,打不还手。请神容易送神难,这20000元我也不要了,您请走吧,爱上哪儿去哪儿。那行,好人做到底,我也正想回家看看,给我买张机票吧。为了把这尊神请走,洛旦还向哥哥借了2000元,买了机票,送走了他。在这之后的一个月里,洛旦一家人总是把门关得紧紧的,一有人敲门,就心惊胆跳的,生怕那厮杀个回马枪又回来了。光阴似箭,岁月如梭,5年后,那人真的回来了,带了老婆孩子,当然,那欠下的20000元及各种杂费,也一并带来。洛旦一家盛情款待,游拉萨,逛纳木措,想必此时的心境与彼时的心境大不相同。那人如此,洛旦也如此。相逢一笑,尽泯恩怨。洛旦的第二个故事:一个人和一只羊洛旦走阿里,一年复一年,可这一年却遇到了一件奇事。出普兰不远,发现路边有一位徙步的男青年,身上背着一个大包,包上挂着一支水瓶,身后却牵着一只羊,羊很小,以人来算的话,最多上小学,人很瘦,不到90斤,一只羊,一个人,在荒凉的土路上,孤独地前行。洛旦深知在这样人迹罕见的地方,实在不适合独行,停车相问,到哪儿?答:不知道。走了多久了?答:三个月了。从哪儿来?香港。那人怕洛旦他们不信,还拿出护照,果然是HK人。又问:为什么来这里?答:走着走着就到这里了。再问:羊从哪儿来的?答:自己跟来的,可能它也寂寞吧。洛旦好心,带你一程吧,那香港人也实在,就缩在行李包中,一路不哼声,带到了札达。那香港人浑身臭哄哄的,洛旦让他洗了个澡,用了整整一块肥皂,又请他吃了三碗拉面,问:究竟怎么回事?答:我在香港把自己给丢了,不知道自己是什么人。独子,父母皆是成功人士,我却是平凡小子,事业无成,未能聚妻,内心自闭,父母相轻。走到哪儿算哪儿,对我来说,处处都是人生的归宿。洛旦见此人神情恍惚,说话颠三倒四,便好言相劝,你若没有地方可去,我有一处,极适合现在的你,色拉寺,去不去?香港人答:有何不去。洛旦随即向色拉寺的师傅汇报,希望大师能救救这位年轻人,师傅说,来吧。半年后,这位香港人的父母特地来到洛旦家,向洛旦致谢,在路上拣回了他们儿子的心。后来,这年轻人子承父业,还真成就了一番事业,现在也算是名人了。江湖上有句传言,来西藏的人,不是失恋的,就是失意的,或是已辞职的和准备辞职的,如果都不是,那一定是精神病。如果还不是的话,那一定是自己还不知道自己是精神病的精神病。仔细想想,这句话有一定的道理。【英雄团】 (左起:本色、海拔3000、苏暮遮、飞檐走壁、茗禅、稻草人、西湖美、达华) 英雄莫问出处威振江湖、人见人威、骑最快的马、亮最快的剑、喝最大碗的酒、高原上蹦得最高此乃向日葵色板官方天地英雄是也。英雄总有个主角,在没经大家同意之下,达华轻易地充当了一回主角。(三个配角和一个没经导演潜规则的主角)向日葵色板官方的队伍向太阳,太阳就是那伟大的党。呀拉索!扎达土林沟苦练猴功。猴哥,猴哥!你真了不得! “没经苏导演的潜规则,岂能当主角?”草人大喝一声!达华当场被草人踢出镜头之外。画外音:那天之后,达华对苏毕恭毕敬,后经苏导演的对达华的潜规则时的实地考察发现:达华虽然年纪最小,头上毛发却掉得最多,可是,腰部以上颈部以下却是郁郁葱葱。从此,苏导演赐给达华一个艺名:小青龙。 男儿厮杀正闹,美女拉拉队也不甘落后,她们齐声大喊:“草人,加油!草人,加油!!草人草人我爱你,就像老鼠爱大米!” 潜规则后的达华迅速蹿红成了导演。他正指导着女主角们为艺术献身。 英雄团集体亮相谢幕!洛旦的第三个故事:死人沟札达土林,长50里,横20里,或长20里,横50里。总之方圆千里。在这千里之内,有着13条沟,都是同一走向,南北还是东西(忘了)其中有一条沟,就叫作死人沟。洛旦讲这个故事的时候,是在凌晨12点,我们正在札达土林里迷路着。黑色的天空里有个弯月,提醒向日葵色板官方,还是在地球上,且向日葵色板官方还活着。有一年,洛旦带着一个摄影团游土林,到土林时,快傍晚了,摄影大师们是最讲究光影的,对洛旦说,向日葵色板官方徒步进去,你在沟外等着,3个小时就回来。过了3个小时,大师们还没回来,洛旦想,光线太美了。4个小时还没回来,洛旦想,这些人真的没时间概念。5个小时还没回来,洛旦就是用膝盖想也知道,大师们迷路了。天黑了,洛旦也慌了,对人来说,这土林里没吃没喝的,可万一有只狼,对它来说,进去了三个人,这狼倒变成有吃有喝的了。洛旦跑到附近的一个村子,恳求村里的人都来找人,找到一个人给500,没找到人,也给100。全村的人打着火把,分批进沟。找了一宿,活的没找到,死的也没见过一个。第二天一大清早,村民们继续找,洛旦跑到札达去报警,有关部门说,不到24小时,不算失踪,说不准,自己就溜达出来了。中午,终于找到了一个,还活着。村民们不愿再找了,能去的地方向日葵色板官方都找了,土林太大了,向日葵色板官方尽力了。村民们可以撤,可洛旦不能撤,洛旦通过关系,求爷爷告奶奶,请军营里的大部队帮忙。不惜一切代价,不管多少钱,不管死的活的,只要能把人找回来就行。关键时刻还是要靠部队,到了第三天,终于把人都找齐了,佛祖保佑,人都活着,也没少个零件什么的。世界上没有无缘无故的爱,一般的爱都要用金钱来计算,这般折腾化了2万5,世界上也没有无缘无故的恨,化了这么多钱,这三个人不愿了。向日葵色板官方只不过在里面呆了一天两夜,也没有给狼吃了,凭什么要化向日葵色板官方这么多钱。只能看在洛旦你也算是尽心尽责的份上,再说,向日葵色板官方也不是没钱的主,这钱向日葵色板官方出了,可你们得帮我们把那机子找回来,那可都是十几二十几万的哈苏啊。洛旦年轻时,也不是善良的主,也见过各种各样的人,经过各种各样的事,到了这时候,才发现,原来自己还真是一个没见过什么世面的人。隔天,到了狮泉河,三位大师们说再多的话也没用了,分道扬骠,算帐走人。故事听到这里,我们不仅流着口水问,那些哈苏们是不是还真的躺在土林的哪一个角落里,等着向日葵色板官方去拣,洛旦白了向日葵色板官方一眼,贼贼地笑道,机子都在,就看你有没有那个命了。【英雄之二】西湖美

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 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([]
