黄琬学夏天（6月28日至8月26日），和朋友一起游历了巴基斯坦北部地区，并完成了喀喇昆仑山区K2大本营，以及snowlake两条经典徒步线路。旅程之奇幻，遭遇之惊险，徒步之艰辛，在我本人的旅程经历中前所未有，特此为记。 预先说明的是，这是个纯粹的户外帖，帖子里没有艳遇激情之类的八卦，也不会有0元穷游的嘘头。这里要讲述的，只是两个傻乎乎的老男人，不远千里结伴去喀喇昆仑，看雪山走冰川的艰苦故事。如果你和向日葵色板官方一样，喜欢徒步，喜欢看雪山美景，那么请相信，这个帖子的6.5万字、1500张照片和23段视频，一定不会让你失望。 （在巴基斯坦北部山区的行程示意图：其中红线是坐车走过的公路；蓝线是徒步线路上需要坐车的路段；黄线是K2大本营徒步线路；粉线是snowlake徒步线路。） 先大致列出行程表：6月28日－7月3日：北京出发，经银川、乌鲁木齐，抵达喀什与队友会合，7月3日到达塔什库尔干县；7月4日－7月15日：此次行程的第一部分，游历巴基斯坦北部山区：7月4日从塔什库尔干县经红其拉甫口岸出境，抵达巴基斯坦境内的边境口岸小镇sost，再往南经过堰塞湖，游览美丽的hunza，而后抵达北部地区首府Gilgit市；7月7日至10日，从Gilgit出发，往西抵达shandur pass山都垭口，观看著名的山都马球赛，期间很不幸遭遇球场骚乱，仓惶逃窜；7月11日至15日，到达徒步的起点城镇skardu，与徒步向导sharif会面，办理徒步许可证，游览skardu周边，并参观了当地什叶派穆斯林的阿舒拉节游行活动。 7月16日－27日：此次行程的第二部分，用时12天，完成徒步K2BC线路，抵达K2大本营并遇到了杨春风、饶剑峰、张京川在准备攀登K2，张梁、王静在攀登布洛阿特峰；而后艰难翻越了Gondogorola垭口，经hushey回到skardu。 7月28日－8月2日：休整，并往返gilgit办理证延期，未办理成功，返回skardu；8月3日－11日：此次行程的第三部分，用时9天，完成徒步snowlake线路，其间穿越了两条长度均在60公里左右的大冰川，抵达hunza。 8月12日－23日：此次行程的第四部分，从hunza出发，一路往南抵达巴基斯坦首都伊斯兰堡，办理证延期，并游览伊斯兰堡和古城拉合尔。8月24日－26日：伊斯兰堡经乌鲁木齐，飞回北京。 本帖各部分导读：第一部分：游历巴基斯坦北部：陌生的朋友：https//bbs.8264.com/thread-1430744-2-1.html第二部分：K2BC徒步：冰河世纪：https//bbs.8264.com/thread-1430744-26-1.html第三部分：snowlake徒步：喀喇昆仑密境：https//bbs.8264.com/thread-1430744-58-1.html第四部分：伊斯兰堡－拉合尔：迷失的国度：https//bbs.8264.com/thread-1430744-90-1.html尾声：夏夜晚风：https//bbs.8264.com/thread-1430744-106-1.html 在开始我们的旅程故事之前，先隆重推荐向日葵色板官方这次徒步的向导sharif。sharif是徒步起点城镇skardu当地人，今年36了，有一个儿子和女儿，年纪都很小。sharif家族三代都是登山和徒步向导，家传渊源，他对当地喀喇昆仑山区可谓了如指掌，非常熟悉。sharif为人友善，脾气很好，他组织的徒步服务团队成员，都是来自他家同一个村庄，在团队管理上没有什么问或矛盾，成员很友善乐观而且团结，还能有效控制成本。去年他接待了几拨中国游客，今年又接待了好几拨。由于政治原因，近几年来自西方的游客大幅减少，sharif也希望能迅速吸引更多中国游客，这次徒步过程中，他很认真地向向日葵色板官方学习中文，还有计划去伊斯兰堡学习中文，为将来更好地向日葵视频色板APP官网中国游客做准备。（sharif和他的儿子卡玛尔） 另外，还要介绍一下sharif的叔叔ali，向日葵色板官方都管他叫阿里叔叔。阿里叔叔是个很有意思的人，整天乐呵呵的很喜欢开玩笑，很好相处，在当地也是很有名的登山和徒步向导，LP上都有对他的推荐。阿里叔叔体力很好，带队经验丰富，经常和sharif一起带队。如果由他带队徒步，也是很愉快的事情。（阿里叔叔和卡玛尔） 此次行程相关注意事项：（注意事项比较多，如果不打算去徒步，可以跳过不看）1、证：按照巴基斯坦使馆网站的说法，为中国公民提供免费证，但是你需要提交一大堆材料，比较麻烦，而且证官还有可能挑刺，说白了，和证代理串通起来赚钱。如果你有耐心和时间，可以尝试和证官直接打交道（据说北京大使馆办理比较正规）。想省事，可以找证代理（淘宝上就可找到），只要提交护照和照片即可，其它任何材料都不用准备，价格大概在1000－1200左右，可以办理一个月的商务证或旅行证。需要说明的是，如果你觉得一个月旅行时间足够，那就办理一个月即可；如果不够，则和证代理沟通，争取办理两个月或3个月的。去年据说在巴基斯坦北部城市gilgit或skardu，都可以办理证延期，但是今年的政策发生了变化，skardu不能再办理证延期，gilgit也只办理旅行证的延期，最多给你延15天，而且审批很严格；商务证延期则必须到伊斯兰堡办理，要和各种官僚机构打交道，很麻烦。2、徒步季节：尼泊尔境内的喜马拉雅山区，最佳徒步时间是10月份、11月份和4月份，但是喀喇昆仑山区则完全不一样。这里的登山季节是7月份，徒步的最佳季节就是7－9月份，其它月份天气较差，要翻越垭口很困难。即便如此，在7－9月份徒步，遇到恶劣天气的可能性仍比较大。向日葵色板官方徒步这两条线路，都遇到了雨雪天气。据当地的向导说，今年7月份有5支队伍徒步snowlake线路，因天气原因，只有一支队伍成功翻越垭口完成了全程徒步，其它四支队伍都不得不半途而返。3、往返行程：从国内去喀喇昆仑山区徒步，可以选择飞到伊斯兰堡，再坐大巴过去，但是往返机票比较贵。如果走陆路，可以先到喀什，然后经塔什库尔干县，从红其拉甫口岸出境。喀什和塔县都有去巴基斯坦的国际大巴，到巴基斯坦境内的sost口岸。这样费用能节省很多，还可以顺便游览慕士塔格峰及巴基斯坦北部山区风光，就是时间比较长一点，向日葵色板官方就是这么走的。需要注意的是，塔县的海关联检，可能会查你的红皮书和黄皮书，就是《国际旅行健康检查证明书》和《疫苗接种或预防措施国际证书》，需要在你所在地区的出入境检验检疫部门办理。这两本证明，如果没有，据说和检查人员说好话，也能过去。但是以防万一，我们出发前，还是办理了黄皮书（《疫苗接种或预防措施国际证书》），花了两百元。红皮书办理费用要五百元，向日葵色板官方想省钱，没有办理。在过海关时，检查人员问了几句，查看了一下黄皮书，也就放向日葵色板官方过去了。回程也可以原路返回，但是新疆在暑期也是旅游旺季，最好提前预订从喀什返回的机票或车票，能省不少钱。同时尽量避开6月底和8月底的时段，这是大学放假和开学的高峰期，也是游客进出新疆的高峰期，车票和机票都比较紧张。从伊斯兰堡飞回乌鲁木齐，只有南航的航班，如果是在网上预订的电子机票，记得要提前去南航在伊斯兰堡的办事处打印一张机票确认单，凭这张单据才能进机场办理登机手续。 4、保险：出发前我通过磨坊网站，花几百元购买了美亚保险的“乐悠游”海外旅行保障计划，共包含12项保险项目。记得把电子保单出发前交给家人，并记下保单号码，一旦有事，可以用得着。5、徒步许可证：徒步K2BC需要办理许可证，可以提前联系向导办理。如果到skardu之后办理，需要3天时间（要传真到伊斯兰堡办理）。向日葵色板官方就是到了skardu之后办理的，3天时间顺便游览了skardu周边。snowlake线路是开放区域，不需要办理徒步许可证。6、交通：巴基斯坦北部地区的交通主要是汽车，由于路况不好，中巴车（minibus）比较多，车内很挤，包括司机旁边，共有5排座位，每排坐4个人，坐进去之后基本就动弹不得，有时车尾和车顶还外挂几个人。从gilgit到skardu，向日葵色板官方坐过好几家公司的minibus，只有一次向日葵色板官方坐NATCO公司的中巴，是每排3个人，算是很好的条件了。从gilgit到伊斯兰堡，有带空调的豪华大巴，票价2100卢比，坐17个小时左右。徒步的开始路段需要坐车，一般安排的则是老式的越野车，在后面帖子里可以看到。7、风俗：巴基斯坦是伊斯兰国家，特别是北部山区，相对还是比较保守。注意尊重当地的风俗习惯，没有经过允许，不要给当地的女性拍照，更不要触碰当地女性。坐车时一般前排是女士专区。和人握手和给人端食物，要用右手。女士去当地旅行，最好穿长袖衣服和长裙长裤，不要露出胳膊和腿部。8、旅行风险：巴基斯坦对中国人相当友好，北部山区更是如此，只要说是中国人，一般都会受到热情相待，女士更加会有优待。喀喇昆仑山区总体而言还是比较安全的，唯一需要注意的是，从gilgit往南去伊斯兰堡的路上，会经过chilas地区，这一地区的部族据说和塔利班有联系，属于比较危险的地区。8月14日晚上向日葵色板官方从gilgit去伊斯兰堡坐大巴经过这一地区时，大巴车都是几辆结伴而行，司机告诫我们不要下车。第二天，也就是8月15日晚，这一地区就发生了恐怖袭击，三个武装分子拦住一辆巴士，枪杀了25个人，引发了skardu市的大规模游行抗议。这次恐怖袭击也直接影响到向日葵色板官方的回程计划。9、通信：在巴基斯坦旅行，可以买一张当地的电话卡，打当地电话和国内电话都比较便宜，一般买中移动在巴基斯坦子公司zong公司的卡比较多，但是充值时会扣掉将近20％的税费。徒步路段上是没有手机信号的，不妨把手机关掉或调到离线模式。我的队友用的iphone，徒步过程中关机，只在拍摄视频时才开机，比较省电。 10、食品：徒步线路上是没有补给的，所有食物从skardu出发时都要准备好，但又不可能带过多的量，所以最好出发前在准备物资时，和向导做好沟通，尽量照顾队员的口味、喜欢的食物类别。向日葵色板官方走k2BC时，由于事先没有沟通好，厨师在路上就做了很多的charpati面饼给我们吃，我的队友，来自山东的海洋同学吃得非常开心，而我这个南方人就简直痛不欲生。后来走snowlake时，厨师就相应对食物做了调整，增加了炒饭、面条、蔬菜水果的数量。另外，还可以从国内多带一点下饭菜、香辣牛肉酱、巧克力、牛肉干、压缩饼干之类，注意不要带含猪肉的食品。11、小费：向导会对徒步线路有一个报价，人越多，每个队员支付的价格就越低，但是这个报价是不包含小费的。这次我和队友两个人走k2BC，小费准是：背夫走完全程，每人小费20美金左右；有的背夫是在翻垭口之前就半途返回，小费就是10美金左右；厨师的小费是50美金；厨师助理是25美金；向导的小费是150美金。这样算下来，总的小费费用相当于徒步价格的12－15%左右。snowlake线路的小费金额与K2BC基本相同。如果队员较多，相应支付给向导和厨师的小费总额也会增加，但平摊下来，每个队员支付的金额还是会有减少。所以去徒步的话，队员人数还是多一点比较划算，以4－8个人为宜，人太多了队伍也不好协调。12、充电：巴基斯坦电力供应不足，首都伊斯兰堡都会有计划停电。北部山区的几个主要站点，skardu有自己的水电站，停电算是比较少的，hunza则没有统一的电网供电，各个旅馆都是自己发电。因此注意，只要有电力供应，抓紧给手机相机电池充电。旅馆一般都会提供插座。徒步路上是没有地方可以充电的，相机备用电池一定要带足。我的宾得k-x单反，用的是5号电池，出发前在淘宝上买了充足的劲量5号锂电池，相当给力，4节电池能用一周时间。13、货币兑换：在北部山区几个大的站点，美金和人民币都可以兑换当地卢比，可以找旅馆老板询问兑换点。这次向日葵色板官方兑换，拿人民币直接兑换卢比，要比带美金兑换更划算。例如，向日葵色板官方在gilgit，一元人民币可以兑换15卢比，而一美金则只能兑换92卢比。在sost口岸兑换时汇率要低一点，到gilgit稍高。8月下旬向日葵色板官方返程时，卢比有贬值，伊斯兰堡当地的外币兑换点，一元人民币可以兑换到15.2卢比，美金则是94.5卢比，还是拿人民币直接兑换更划算。 14、装备：最后列一下这次徒步我的装备物品清单：鞋子：SCARPA barun徒步鞋1双，Teva凉鞋1双；背包：小鹰38背包1个，强氧摄影胸包1个，强氧水壶包1个，驮包一个；内衣：C3上衣2件，C1长袖1件，速干短袖T恤1件，红辣椒排汗长裤1件，内裤若干；保暖：防风抓绒1件，HW玉羌带帽羽绒服一件；外衣：Marmot driclime风衣1件，Pata带帽软壳一件；裤子：TNF速干裤、Columbia 两截式速干裤各1条；睡袋：MHW －15度睡袋1个，睡袋内胆一个；药品：感冒药，腹泻药，健胃药，创可贴，清凉油，云南白药喷剂，抗生素类药（头孢类）；其它：登山杖2支，护膝1对，抓绒帽1顶，防晒圆边帽1顶，头巾1条，手套2副（抓绒手套、劳保手套），太阳镜1副，徒步袜2－3双，雪套1副，头灯1个，手电1个，水壶1个，雨披1个，瑞士卡片军dao1个，手机＋充电器，剃须刀，洗嗽用具（速干毛巾、牙膏牙刷、小梳子），卫生纸，湿纸巾两包，防晒霜，润唇膏，小本子，笔，照片，证件，晾衣夹。相机：宾得K-X单反＋腾龙18－200镜头；5号锂电池若干；充电器＋充电电池；存储卡；相机清理工具。在这次带的装备中，最满意的是徒步鞋和睡袋。scarpa barun徒步鞋是我这次出门前新买的，相当给力，因时间紧张，没有经过磨合就直接上路了，经历了各种艰苦地形，全程给我相当好的保护。MHW睡袋是很早的款式了，又大又重，徒步过程中有几晚直接睡在冰川上，很冷，幸好带了这条大睡袋。徒步结束后我把睡袋送给了向导，他非常高兴。另外，驮包也很有用，经历了马驮人背，磨破了几个洞，很好地保护了我的背包和物品。还有晾衣夹，徒步途中，在帐篷上晾晒衣物和睡袋，很有用。另外记得带一副便宜的劳保手套，走K2BC翻垭口时需要拉着绳子上下，用得着。至于失误的地方，主要是防潮垫，由向导提供，比较简陋，睡在冰川上的时候很冷，所以最好从国内带一个充气垫过去，或者在skardu再自己多买一个搓板垫。另外，药品不妨多带一点，除了队员，背夫们可能也需要一些药品。这次我走K2BC比较衰，12天全程生病，国内带过去的药全吃完了。走snowlake时买了巴基斯坦产的药，结果基本又没有吃。 第一部分：游历巴基斯坦北部：陌生的朋友自从看了去年的几篇K2徒步帖之后，就一直惦记，但总是下不了决心。今年4月份，我在EBC认识的青岛哥们海洋沙漠发了一条微博，准备6月底组织去巴基斯坦K2徒步，当时我心里就痒痒了，可还是不能确定。直到6月中旬，我才向海洋确定参加队伍，然后赶紧办理证，准备各种手续，找风总和被窝购买装备，订火车票飞机票。那十几天忙得不可开交，我发现出门长线旅行，准备越久考虑越多，反而可能越有变故，倒是像这样临时决定，下个狠心，也就出去了。一通忙乱之后，6月28日清晨，我去北京站赶火车去银川。正值学生放暑假，北京到乌鲁木齐的火车票根本买不到，飞机票也是很贵，强总替我一番核算，先坐火车到银川，再转乘春秋航空的班机到乌鲁木齐比较划算。那天出门就不顺利，北京下了雨，这就意味着大堵车。我9点出门，赶11点的火车，居然差点没赶上。好在有惊无险，第二天29日清晨顺利到达银川，然后换乘中午的飞机，下午到达乌鲁木齐，在中山路找了个宾馆住下，离火车站比较近。准备第二天，也就是6月30日，坐上午的火车去喀什和队友会合。其实我真心希望旅途平安顺利，当然有点小刺激也是无妨。可是我没有想到这趟旅程居然是这样出乎意料的开端。6月30日凌晨5点，我在旅馆床上睡得正香，迷迷糊糊就觉得床在晃荡。当时我第一反应就是：屋子里进贼啦？没事干吗晃我的床？然后突然一个激灵，感觉不对，好像是～～地震了！我腾地坐了起来，床还是在摇晃，可是外面走廊上没有任何动静，难道是我睡糊涂了？我于是又躺下了，刚躺下，床猛的来了个剧烈的晃动，连桌子也在晃。这可不是错觉，我立马跳起来，手忙脚乱边穿衣服，边开了门就往外跑。这时各个房间的客人都纷纷跑了出来，从8楼一口气跑到大街上。大家站在街边，大眼瞪小眼，谁都不知道是哪里地震了，还会不会有余震。有人拿出手机打电话刷向日葵视频黄色视频，都没有什么消息。这样干等到6点多，我估摸着，应该没啥大事，就上楼回到房间打开电视，向日葵视频黄色视频报道说，是和静县巩乃斯发生了6.6级地震，离乌鲁木齐有好几百公里，这里震感都那么强烈。反正已经睡不着了，干脆吃完早饭，收拾行李，去火车站等火车。进了候车室之后，大喇叭开始广播啦，说由于地震的影响，铁道部门要检查道路受损情况，因此开往南疆的列车全都要推迟发车，具体何时发车时间不确定，大家在候车室等着，不要走远。候车室人越来越多，又闷又热，一直等到下午两点，终于发车了，晚点了4个小时。然后一路不停的错车让车，第二天到达喀什，已经晚点了8个小时。 我的队友海洋和小赵，在帕米尔青年旅舍，热烈欢迎我的到来。原本计划5个人的队伍，一个家里有事，还有一个没办好证，这样就非战斗性减员成了3个人。他俩6月30日坐飞机来的喀什，恰恰就在前一天发生了和田劫机事件，顿时让我觉得大家真是难兄难弟。 我们在喀什休息了两天，看完了欧洲杯决赛，购买了一些物资和药品。7月3日上午，离开喀什，乘坐中巴车，赶往塔什库尔干县。 这是我第二次去塔什库尔干县了，一路帕米尔高原风光，可惜中巴车不能中途停下来拍照。 一路最著名的景点，当然就是冰山之父、海拔7546米的慕士塔格峰。 下午抵达塔县之后，向日葵色板官方找旅馆住下，打听好了第二天去巴基斯坦的国际大巴。下午哥三个闲得没事，就去县城边的石头城逛逛。 塔什库尔干，曾有葱岭、蒲犁、羯盘陀的美称，维吾尔语意为“石头城堡”，就是缘自这个古代的石头城。石头城海拔3100米，地势极为险峻，是新疆境内古丝道上一个著名的古城遗址。汉代时，这里是西域三十六国之一的蒲犁国的王城。唐朝政府统一西域后，在这设有葱岭守捉所。元朝初期，大兴土木扩建城廓，旧的石头城换了新颜。清光绪二十八年（1902年），清廷在此建立蒲犁厅，对旧城堡进行了维修和增补。城虽小，形势却十分险要。城外建有多层或断或续的城垣，隔墙之间石丘重叠，乱石成堆，构成独特的石头城风光。城下即一片湿地，古代自喀什、英吉沙、叶城、莎车至帕米尔高原的几条山路均汇集于此。尽管风吹日晒，它的轮廓仍然较为完整。 石头城边的湿地，开发建设成了郊野公园，建了木质栈道，成为当地人休闲的好去处。 往北望去，远远可以望见慕士塔格群峰，白雪皑皑。 河水缓缓流过，这一片群山环抱下的牧场，水草丰美。 牛羊在草地上静静享受美餐。 开阔的河谷。 夕阳西下，照亮了这片美丽的湿地草原。 夕阳下的石头城。 如画的草原黄昏。 金色阳光下，闪闪发亮的草原。 蓝天下云彩朵朵。 悠闲自得的马匹。([]

张翠廷本贴所有图文，皆为原创。谢绝任何形式的转载。如有需要，请站短。 尼泊尔是一幅古怪的画。 雨季加都狭窄混乱的街道，泥泞不堪的地面，随处可见的神庙，满街的纱丽店，大大小小患着皮肤病的狗只……所有浓烈的色彩都堆砌在一起，冲撞着你的视觉。偏偏又因为作画人有着梵高那样的天赋，所以这画即使刺得人眼疼，却也另有一种动人心魄的魅力。* 本次出行线路：无锡-拉萨-樟木-加德满都-帕坦-巴克塔普尔-提米-奇特旺-博卡拉-加德满都-拉萨-无锡。6月23号出发，7月18号回到家，总计26天。 本来是准备在回来的时候走滇藏线的，但是电视里天天在播318线新都桥和雅江段因塌方断路的消息，就打消了这个念头。生命只有一次，安全第一。* 本次出行人员：本豆，本豆的无敌金牌搭档花花，小欣子，叔。三女一男。 其实四人组合是很好的，吃饭包车都经济实惠。唯一不好的是尼泊尔的旅馆撑死了只有三人间，出于安全考虑，我们一般都住在一起，每次叔独占一床，向日葵色板官方仨女的挤两张床，小欣子就只能睡在中间，叔叫她“填缝专家”，因此小欣子很恨叔，没事就跟他吵个小架。 关于叔，及叔的二三事叔其实了不起算个哥，但是因为队伍里有了小欣子这个九零后，哥就悲催地混成了叔。＊加都，凤凰。叔其实很绅士，不管做什么都让着仨娘们。有次我从外面进来，花花和小欣子一个洗澡一个唱歌，房间里蒸汽弥漫，我奇怪地问：“叔呢？”小欣子说：“在楼下大堂里呆坐着。”我上楼的时候是路过大堂的，但是我没有注意到叔。叔，其实我不是无视你，我是450度近视……之后，如果叔不在，我通常是这样问小欣子的：“你苦逼叔呢？”＊关于叔的脸小欣子有个同学，跟她男朋友打电话的时候，动不动就说：“小心我呼肿你的脸！”小欣子学给向日葵色板官方听，集体笑倒，以后，大家只要一不高兴，就扬言要呼肿对方的脸。某天，我无意中买到了一件很好看的衣服。兴冲冲地对叔说：“明天我要穿新衣服，你帮我多拍几张照片，要是拍不好，我就呼肿你的脸！”花在旁边幽幽地接一句：“那叔的脸一定是肿的。”＊某天，东措叔满脸郁闷地坐在床上，说，刚才给老婆的QQ发了个表情，老婆居然回他说“你好。”隔壁有个小哥要去墨脱。叔听了蠢蠢欲动，长吁短叹。我说：叔，还是早点回家吧，否则下次你老婆要 “请问你是哪位”了。＊总结：叔其实是个准好男人，大方豪气，从不和女同胞斤斤计较，热爱家庭，热爱宠物，虽然有时候细腻了点，比如喜欢看云卷云舒，喜欢听雨，喜欢拍小景，经常蹲在草丛和烂泥里（看贴童鞋敬请期待叔在以上俩场景里的照片）搞创作，但总的来说，叔是个堂堂正正的好男人。＊下面附上一张叔在库玛丽女神庙专心搞创作的照片。 **上一张全家福。依次为花猪，小欣子，豆猪，叔。 淡扯完，从头说起。 我记得去年上海-拉萨的火车是两天发一趟的，叔说，每天都发。于是我不确定了，让叔去打听下。打听下来的结果，是每天发。于是提前十天去买票。到了代售点，人说，京沪高铁马上要开通，上海铁路局所属范围内，7月1号之前的火车票一律只能提前5天发售。于是回家。到了限定的日子，起个大早去，居然一张卧铺都没有，想着先上车，拼着坐到西安，总能补到的吧，就先买了3张硬座。 结果等到那天，一上车我就问有没有卧铺补，答复是没有，到哪都补不到。因为这趟车的卧铺出售权，是交给站台的，列车没有资格出售……除非过了格尔木，可是等到了格尔木，还补个毛啊。貌似有不少同学以为俺是为了省钱才买的硬座，8是滴，47小时呢，楼主8是铁打滴，如果有卧铺，是不会自虐滴——特此说明。不要再同情和佩服俺了。俺坐到下车，腰都坐断了，铁老大、黄牛和旅行社以及所有炒火车票的人，祖宗八代都给俺问候到了。哦，对了，叔为了这三张鸟火车票，一共跑了三次，劳苦功高。出发前的准备有点琐碎。护照拍成照片存在邮箱里，以防出国后万一丢失或被偷；药物准备了易蒙停、咽立消、阿莫西林、万金油等，淘宝高原安集体涨价了，于是在掌柜的推荐下买了高原宁，结果是毛用没有，一路照样反得头昏眼花； 淘宝还买了《走遍全球尼泊尔》、《背包旅游英语》两本书，以及2个月前开始背英语，天天看美剧（虽然等出国后才发现，俺的英语水平等于文盲）；据说那边太阳很厉害，忍着心疼买了金瓶安耐晒（虽然后来发现这玩意不适合俺，用了脸上的皮掉了一层又一层，摸上去跟砂皮似的）；叔提前一个月就天天跟俺念叨，今天败了啥，明天又败了啥。俺帮他粗算了一下，人还没出去，2000大洋没了……花花比向日葵色板官方提前一天到拉萨，说好在东措帮向日葵色板官方定房。 火车上的47个小时生不如死，上去后先问有没有卧铺补，答复是没有，到哪都补不到。因为这趟车的卧铺出售权，是交给站台的，列车没有资格出售……除非过了格尔木，可是等到了格尔木，还补个毛啊。坐到后来，终于麻木。到拉萨后洗澡的时候才发现，屁股是麻的。 车上听歌，看小电影，小欣子和叔玩扑克，输的人贴纸条，小欣子的脸贴得跟个“公”字似的，她愤愤地说叔是千王…… 我则按照惯例，在过了格尔木之后开始高反，吐了两次，昏沉沉闭着眼装死。 无锡火车站。还好，人不是很多。到西安的时候，至少晚点了一个小时。车到兰州，我特地提着相机下去拍兰州烧饼。没有。只有兰州炸鸡。格尔木。盼望着，盼望着，岗秀到了，拉萨的脚步近了……东措的走廊。俺居然还是住在２０２，还是去年那张床……缘分啊！到了拉萨，我高反得象头死猪。很快我发现，不是我一个人反，连皮实得跟个铁蛋似的花花，这次也嚷不舒服，叔的高反也紧跟着来了，嘴唇紫得吓人，据他说，心跳达到了120。一直睡到下午，才提起精神，去大昭寺转了一圈。在拉萨的几天，就是胡乱混日子。和花花一起来的还有她朋友小天。小天虽然是第一次跟着花出远门，但天生是个麻大胆，都不用花领着，自己出去乱转。每天早上出门，不到晚上11点基本是不见人的。花开始还担心，后来就推测，丫一定是有人陪着玩，否则不可能在花主动要求陪她的情况下，一个人急急忙忙地出门去……于是，我管花叫“花尔摩斯”。花龙颜大悦，欣然接受了这一称呼。 *仓央嘉措的玛吉阿米。据说是装13的好地方，不过俺老人家不感兴趣，一次也没上去过。也就是在每次路过的时候，随便拍一张。大昭寺前磕长头的人们。今年的天气很诡异，拉萨的云层很厚，经常下雨。照片拍出来总是灰蒙蒙的，唯一的好处是不象往年那么干燥得让人难受。*大昭寺的金顶。广场。远一点，再来一张。在大街小巷里乱窜。这张照片，是叔帮俺拍的。走累了，闯进一家茶馆。酥油茶6元一壶。看到壶的大小后，向日葵色板官方一致认为，伙计收的是游客价。下午的小昭寺。进去转个圈。不要门票，当然，大殿门关着，你啥也看见。大殿。在大殿和外墙之间，还有一条夹道，供转经的人们围着殿堂转。小昭寺的这夹道算很宽的，还能放下一排转经筒。我后来又逛过几个小寺庙，那些夹道，都是又窄又暗的。早上的时候转经的人摩肩接踵，现在，只有三三两两的几个。向日葵色板官方也跟着转了一圈。 东措对面的木如寺。这个寺庙，经常被游客忽略，其实，那里面，还有一个印经院呢。 有个不大的殿堂，很安静。除了早上，这里几乎没有人来。从尼泊尔回国后，我在一天清晨重新造访了这里。很多信徒。这是木如寺旁边的下密院。也是除了早上，白天没什么人。小昭寺紧隔壁的次巴拉康寺，据说是拉萨人气最旺的小寺庙。真不是假的。清晨的时候，全是熙熙攘攘的人流，在昏暗的夹道里一圈一圈地转着，寺外桑烟缭绕，周围的小摊子，全是卖的和这个寺庙有关的东西。我买了一束花，也进去转了一圈。卖花的小摊。大的花束3元，小的2元。烟雾。次巴拉康寺大殿门上的彩色小鹿。([]

吴文燕春节期间，牛车水处处都有卖春联等年货的店铺。牛车水处处张灯结彩街道上也是充满年的生肖图腾 新加坡华人占76%，春节是新加坡的重要节日之一。 在新加坡过春节有种别样的感觉，值得尝试。龙年春节，向日葵色板官方一家三口在这里度过了一个异域的春节。 临近春节了，新加坡的街道上处处披上中国传统的春节盛装，大大小小的红灯笼高高挂起，年画也贴了出来，一片喜气洋洋。 华人聚居地——牛车水更是处处洋溢着春节的气息。 牛车水是新加坡的唐人街，是华族祖先飘洋过海来到新加坡，自1821年逐渐形成的聚居地。当时的人们乘着从中国福建厦门南下的第一艘平底中国帆船抵达新加坡后，就在新加坡河以南一带（也就是现在的直落亚逸街）定居。由于在那儿的每家每户都得拉牛车到安祥山的史必灵路取水，久而久之，这里就被称为牛车水了。 春节期间，整个牛车水张灯结彩，各家店铺都装饰一新，还有不少节日商品和风味小吃，年货摆得满满的，购买年货的人络绎不绝。商场还播放着传统的过新年歌曲，可谓热闹非凡。 新加坡春节有迎春花市、舞狮表演、猜灯谜、除夕夜燃放烟花、滨海湾“春到河畔迎新年”等丰富多彩的各类活动。 新加坡的华人过春节象中国人一样，置办年货，买新衣服，尤其喜欢买各种红色的衣服，图个吉利。春节前也扫房子，除夕夜一家人在一起吃团圆饭，很多人家都吃火锅。由于新加坡禁止燃放鞭炮，总觉得不过瘾，但现在国内城市也大多禁止放鞭炮了。 大年初一，新加坡华人也是到亲戚朋友家拜年。拜年时不用提着大兜小兜，只要带两个桔子，进门捧向主人即可，象征大吉大利。主人在客人告辞时，也要奉还两只桔子。在这里红包也是要给的，大人们给自己家的孩子和其他人家的孩子们压岁钱。与国内一样，孩子们早就盼望春节的到来了。 新加坡华人大年初一外出拜年，初二就呆在家里了，一般人家要请由学生们组成的舞狮队来到家中表演，锣鼓一响，狮子一舞，就会驱走晦气，迎来吉祥。 按着新加坡法律，春节放两天假，加上周末，一般有四天时间，许多当地人喜欢到国外旅游。 作为游客，春节主要就是到处游玩，感受新加坡春节的别样风情。 羊年春节到了，在这里提前向各位8264论坛的管理、客服、版主和诸位好友拜年了！ 祝大家新春快乐、阖家幸福、身体健康，在外心属8264，在家和和美美！ 心想事成事事成，花好月圆年年圆！感受新加坡之一——漫步岛国看狮城 干净清新亦繁华（概述篇）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2172957-1-1.html感受新加坡之二——休闲小岛走不停 亚洲最南寻风情（圣淘沙篇）https//bbs.8264.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2182169&page=1&extra=#pid50347652感受新加坡之三——参天巨树生满园 热带风情绿无限（植物园篇）https//bbs.8264.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2231866&page=1&extra=#pid53500784感受新加坡之四——绿意充盈总统府 世外桃源乌敏岛（总统府和乌敏岛篇）https//bbs.8264.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2253589&page=1&;extra=#pid55203314感受新加坡之五——海风轻拂鱼尾狮 流光溢彩夜迟迟（滨海湾篇）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2255988-1-1.html感受新加坡之六——狮城国花胡姬花 千姿百态芬芳开（胡姬花篇）https//bbs.8264.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2299743&page=1&extra=#pid58352540感受新加坡之七——小印度里寻缩影甘榜格南回族情（新加坡河等篇）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2322447-1-1.html感受新加坡之八——立体交通路纵横街道小区绿充盈（交通和街道篇）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2326625-1-1.html感受新加坡之十——方式灵活有初院 环境优美好校园（南初篇）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2344728-1-1.html感受新加坡之十一——享誉全球名高校 环境优雅美校园（南大篇）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2354269-1-1.html 春节了，大红灯笼高高挂。 除夕夜，华灯初上的牛车水街区。 除夕夜，牛车水熙熙攘攘的人流。 春节的鲜花市场 火树银花不夜天的牛车水除夕夜 在这里求学的华人学子在组织春节联欢活动 远离祖国的学子在除夕夜十二点燃放烟花，寄托对家的思念。 正月初一的圣淘沙迎春花市 滨海湾的“春到河畔迎新年”活动现场 华人的会馆灯笼高挂 街头随处可见的春节祝福语 主要街道两旁也灯笼高挂 巨大的龙图腾占据街道旁 和国内相似的街头春节装饰 春节到庙宇祈福的华人 处处红灯笼喜庆春节 牛车水的街道人山人海 春节的大排档也是大红灯笼高高挂 出售春联等的店铺 春节的小吃铺也是处处充满红色 除夕夜，吃夜宵的人依然很多。 除夕夜的小吃铺依然人来人往 春节，通往牛车水的地铁人流如织。 学子们在准备春节联欢的节目 走台试试效果 华人学子们等待春节联欢开始 除夕夜聚餐的华人教师和学子 除夕夜，华人学子燃放烟花庆祝。 新加坡禁止放炮，但小烟花还是可以的。([]

卢淑如离开六库,来到中缅边境小城------瑞丽。好奇的找了个小旅行社，只180元报名参加了缅甸一日游。南坎、木姐两城一日游：游金皇宫，木姐市场、金鹿寺、民族花园、中心大佛寺、芒坎寺院.....缅甸旅游也是每个到瑞丽旅游者的心愿。到当地的旅行社打听，说现在因为那边打仗和借旅游之机贩卖毒品的太多，瑞丽边境不再办理到缅甸旅游的手续了，但是可以偷渡过去，偷渡！在距离国门不远的地方，导游让向日葵色板官方下车，再换车，过了污水沟和一块空地，又进了一个围墙的铁门。然后上了跳条船，几分钟后到了对岸。导游才说，向日葵色板官方已到了缅甸。我说怎么没经过海关，也没有经过检查？导游笑笑没说话。我一看向日葵色板官方来到一停车场，里面全是缅甸牌照的卡车。陆陆续续又来了几个人，在那里又等了好大一会，来了一辆能坐四五个人的小车，把向日葵色板官方“运”到一个挂缅甸国旗的大金殿院子里。这时向日葵色板官方才明白，向日葵色板官方是“偷渡国境”来到了缅甸。在金殿一路之隔，肃立着“中华人民共和国瑞丽口岸”的大门头。原来，神奇的偷渡如此简单。摄影器材：尼康D80+18mm定焦镜头（首次尝试全程使用定焦镜头，折合为27mm），当然也是迫不得已的选择，在澡塘会镜头用坏了，变焦环失效，只好当定焦用。纪实摄影：一天之内拍了五百多张照片，显然是粗制滥造，喜欢真实的影像记录，好玩而已。欢迎加入“心灵的家园QQ群187964471”终于对上了接头暗号!又来了一船偷渡客大家抓紧时间匆匆上岸接应的车辆久久未到，寒冷的凌晨中大家燃起一堆篝火取暖.......... 无聊之中拍了几张招贴画，是啥意思也不懂....... 木姐不是人，是个地名，它地处云南瑞丽八十一号国门缅甸一侧。木姐系缅甸语地名，即“繁华热闹的城镇”之意。它是缅甸掸邦西北部的一个边境镇区（相当于县），而且是缅甸的国家级口岸。 木姐位居瑞丽江南岸，依山靠水，风景秀丽，气候宜人。1300年，掸王赛纪在那散（今木姐机场）建了两座桥，并辟为集市。1900年，木姐仅有200多户，1000多人口；1968年发展为1000多户，5000余人；1991年增至2500余户，17000余人。今天木姐已有贺孟、岗南、市场、南街、北街和基督教街6条主要街道，商贾去集，车水马龙，生机勃勃，欣欣向荣，已发展成为一个“繁华热闹的城镇”。随着中国投资200亿修建的从缅甸西部口岸皎漂经木姐到瑞丽的铁路竣工，木姐将迎来更大的发展。 这是偷渡游的第一站。 木姐金鹿寺原先藏有的珍贵文物明永乐二十一年（1423年）永乐皇帝下敕谕一道，赐铜印一枚，蟒袍一套，象牙碗六对，珊瑚树两株，金佛四尊。明嘉靖三十七年（1558年）曾遭哈砸部劫掠。 于清康熙二十六年（1687年）由互助佑宁寺僧人根登罗哲搬到现址重新修建了这座寺院，清康熙三十年（1691年）建成显宗学院（讲经院），从而形成一座乐都地区藏传佛教格鲁派寺院。清廷赐名“福祥寺”，康熙皇帝赐“福寿”斗字金匾一桢。同治年间陕甘总督左宗堂资助修缮，并“护国渡世”匾额一桢。 缅甸是一个崇尚佛教的国家，所到之处庙宇比比皆是，佛身金碧辉煌，金顶直入云端，金鹿寺便是中缅边界的一大著名景观。拉人拍照的小女孩心怀鬼胎的缅甸秋导秋导在寺庙也准备推销缅币见到一本小学课本 合影一次收五元呢也不知道那盘子是如何固定到头上的往佛像头上浇水------挺奇怪的做法([]

王亦柔在我心里，所谓的幸福就是：两个人，一辆车，满世界的美景。还有镜头里只有我的你！记忆中盛夏的婚礼和初秋启程的蜜月旅行，随着立冬节气的到来忽然就加快脚步离我远去了，是时候静下来好好做一个记录，记录这场从认识C同学的那一天起就无比期待的旅行。 有时候觉得和C同学的那场婚礼只是个华丽丽的幌子而已，并不代表要收心开始平淡的家庭生活，而是给了我一个正当的理由和C同学一起谋划一场远渡重洋的疯狂蜜月旅行——25天，从西到东，途经22个州，血格n次清零又迫于“长征”还没结束，只得用呈现在眼前的一个个壮丽景色努力让自己回血，开过雪原和荒漠，每天日夜兼程，行程13000公里，全无蜜月该有的闲适和甜蜜。只因为某一天你眼神清亮的看住我，说了句“想去”而已。行程路线图，第一次在地图上画出来的时候自己也被深深的震撼了一下，相对这个行程来说25天真的太短了，但是为了把有限的蜜月时间充分的利用起来，最大程度的看遍美国的美景，向日葵色板官方真的也是蛮拼的！微凉的西雅图的夜晚，美剧中无数次看到的太空针塔，看到它也算是实现了我多年的夙愿熊牙公路，确实算得上全美最险峻的高速公路，一路上看遍从林海到雪原的各种美景黄石公园东北门的lamar valley，在暮色的笼罩下变得格外温柔在这样荒芜人烟、鲜有车过的公路上 把车轮陷进了路边的沙土里，手机又没有信号，当时的心情，至今都还记得 很多朋友私信我，问我关于证和行程的事，私信回复太麻烦了，关于证可以加我QQ492107016，其实美国证很好办的，至于不会说英文，我觉得问不大C同学的小小梦想，娶了老婆还是要抱着裸女照相，我真是个宽容大度、温柔贤惠的好老婆。。。出发前，我本计划着这是一次两个摄影爱好者的旅行，相互学习摄影技术，木有想到就这么变成了你爱拍照我爱笑的世俗组合关于机票：由于这一次旅行终于不像前面的若干次那样说走就走，而是有一段不算短的准备时间，所以向日葵色板官方终于能享受到提前两个多月订票的幸福感（虽然我知道很多穷游大神都是提前半年订票的），去程向日葵色板官方买的是韩亚航空的机票，从北京经首尔飞旧金山，在首尔有一天的停留时间，两人共7500rmb；然后由于C同学突然脑子一热又很想去西雅图看看，所以向日葵色板官方又买了美联航的当天从旧金山飞西雅图的机票（向日葵色板官方真的是no zuo no die的典范啊）两人共1200rmb；回程就轻松多了，买了国航从华盛顿直飞北京的机票，两人共8500rmb，虽然跟有些大神淘到的廉价机票不能相比，但是由于航程的时间还是比较舒适合理的，所以我俩对这个票价还比较满意。关于证准备去美国旅游的话只要事情定下来第一件需要考虑的事情就是证，因为美国个人旅游给的时间是一年，在这一年期限里什么时候出发都可以，所以甚至不用考虑具体的行程，只要在面时准备一份简单的行程单就可以。而且只有证通过后才好安心订机票和酒店，所以越早越好。而且证是面时当场知道结果，干脆利落。Day 1盼望已久的蜜月终于开始了，醒来的时候脸上带着超灿烂的微笑~，早早爬起来继续打包前一天晚上没收拾完的行李，然后拿上两个大箱子和三个拎包奔去C同学的单位接上最后一秒钟还在打电话交接工作的C同学，速速赶往机场，托运了行李，坐在登机口，终于可以关掉手机了，暂时忘掉各种烦恼，好好享受两个人晃荡在异国他乡的幸福感等着登机的时候比较无聊所以拍了一下特地为这次行程去做的美甲，图案都是我自己设计的，从上到下依次是汉堡包、66号公路、纽约夜景和米国国旗，事实证明做个这种美甲还是有好处的，好多与当地人之间的交流都是从他们好奇的看我的指甲开始的。([]

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