野 山 清 凉 2009年 6月26日至6月28日，我们一行六人在向导蔡胜民的协作下，完成大别山霍山龙井河1号线局部、广家河2号线全程和狼牙谷3号线大半程的徒步穿越，观瀑嬉水。 喜欢行走，是因为心向林泉。如果你的骨子里刻满了随性与浪漫，那这个世界就无所谓城市与荒原。 2009.6.26，凌晨四点，我们一行六人驱车来到大别山堆谷山村。小憩两个小时，醒来就开始摘向导老蔡家的桃子充饥。 我和老蔡商量了一下行程，酷暑难耐，此行主要去水区。略去1号线无瀑布的地区，必要走完2号线，也就是强度难度最大的广家河瀑布区，3号线主要安排腐败项目。上图红线部分就是广家河线，线路内有11道瀑布，依次为玲珑瀑、贴心瀑、老虎夹瀑、珍珠瀑、万字瀑、彩虹瀑、三道崖瀑、黄崖瀑、飞天瀑、美女献秘瀑和老牛撒尿瀑。返程途经神龙首瀑和龙王樽瀑，再插入1号线看鲤鱼跳龙门瀑，经24道弯回堆谷山村。蓝线是3号线，狼牙谷线，相对强度较低，适宜嬉水。([

徐平威〖前言〗“快起床，今天还要开4个小时！”从美西回来几周了，蟋蟀头还时不时假装我们仍在美西自驾途中。对美国的眷念和喜欢似乎超乎我俩的想象。美国，原本不是我俩向往中的旅行地，它太年轻太现代了，历史厚重、传统文化浓郁的国度才是我们的爱。所以，我俩去尼泊尔印度，去中东的约旦以色列，去泰国柬埔寨，去非洲的肯尼亚，甚至去朝鲜，但美国却迟迟没有排进我们的时间表。偶然的机会，看到一张波浪谷的照片，神奇的地貌激发出我的无限好奇。于是，我想是时候去美国看看了。27天，8000公里，我们在美国西部自驾了一个环线，却发现，那不过是美国广袤西部的一小片地域而已。美国人比想象中更亲切随和，他们不像印度人那样用“where are you from?”来刻意与我们套近乎，但“Have a nice day”却几乎是我们每天都能听到的口头禅。榜自由的美国人，其实却非常遵守规则，在有STOP志的路口，他们一定会停车三秒，即使这个STOP志是在人烟稀少的国家公园，也不会动摇他们对规则的遵守。两个人，一辆Jeep，驰骋在美国西部，这段自由自在，无拘无束的日子，我知道即使在很久以后都会是一段难以忘却的回忆。同事邓姐说，等老了，你可以把这段经历写成游记。我诧异，为何要到年老时才写游记？这不是现在就可以做的吗？当然，她并不知道我已经在论坛上写过无数游记，从我玩户外开始，每一次徒步每一次旅行，我都用文字在论坛上留下足迹。只是，微信的盛行，碎片文化的泛滥，当然，还有我的懒心，我已有一年半没写过游记了。而这一次，我决定不再给自己任何借口。直达电梯D1（9月20日）上海—广州—旧金山1、一张申报单换回300美元罚款2、租车——首度体验美国人的耐心3、飞过大洋来看你D2（9月21日）旧金山—蒙特雷—卡梅尔—大苏尔1、第一次自助加油，101刀？2、半月弯——差点错过的风景3、鸽点灯塔Pigeon Point Light —意义大于景致4、鲜花盛开蒙特雷 5、日落17-Mile Drive6、恋恋不舍卡梅尔Carmel7、意外留宿大苏尔D3（9月22日）大苏尔—圣西蒙—Morro Rock—San Luis Obispo—Solvang—圣巴巴拉—洛杉矶1、失而复得的大苏尔Big Sur 2、两个逗比的Morro Rock3、善意满满San Luis Obispo4、在索尔万Solvang的童话世界里迷失一回又何妨？5、圣巴巴拉的晚餐D4（9月23日）洛杉矶——拉斯维加斯1、到此一游好莱坞2、气质超然罗迪欧3、拉斯维加斯惊艳一刻D5（9月24日）拉斯维加斯——大峡谷国家公园Grand Canyon National Park1、威廉姆斯与66号公路的不了情2、当墨西哥菜遇到浓浓善意D6（9月25日）大峡谷国家公园——Kanab1、在Yavapai Point看日出2、徒步光明天使步道3、巴士红线蜻蜓点水4、日落Grandview PointD7（9月26日）Kanab—Page—Kanab1、波浪谷抽，与幸运擦肩而过2、不期而遇格伦峡谷大坝3、梦幻羚羊谷4、马蹄湾，又遇老友5、夕阳无限好D8（9月27日）Kanab—锡安国家公园—Kanab1、锡安国家公园初印象D9（9月28日）Kanab—布莱斯峡谷国家公园1、红的岩，云的舞2、Sunset Point，岩柱的天然剧场3、徒步纳瓦霍环路4、一不小心，从Sunset走到Sunrise5、徒步皇后花园步道D10（9月29日）布莱斯峡谷国家公园—圆顶礁国家公园—盐湖城1、日出Surise Point2、绚烂如画的12号景观公路3、圆顶礁，没有大门不需收费的国家公园4、超速遇警察D11（9月30日）盐湖城—大蒂顿国家公园1、怀俄明的西部田园诗2、杰克逊的西部牛仔风D12（10月1日）大蒂顿国家公园—黄石国家公园1、大蒂顿东线，明信片般的风景线2、湖光山色大蒂顿D13（10月2日）黄石国家公园1、老忠实泉，忠实大于景致2、徒步牵牛花池环线3、雨意渐浓Black Sand BASIns（黑沙盆地）4、烟雨朦胧Biscuit Basin（饼干盆地）D14（10月3日）黄石国家公园1、寻找大棱镜2、不用下车的火洞湖环线（Firehole Lake Drive）3、彩锅喷泉原来是泥浆锅4、单行道的火洞峡谷环线（Firehole Canyon Drive）5、一不小心到了Mammoth（猛犸热泉）D15（10月4日）黄石国家公园—盐湖城1、再寻大棱镜，意外遇朋友2、迷失在诺里斯间歇泉盆地3、诗情画意MammothD16（10月5日）盐湖城—Moab1、盐湖城买胶卷2、5次停车助人，“我们来自中国！”D17（10月6日）拱门国家公园1、自驾，自助，自由2、艺术家的Three Gossips3、在南北窗拱门飞翔4、DeliCATe Arch，路途比终点更奇幻5、四川榕，不吃也罢D18（10月7日）Moab—拱门国家公园—峡谷地国家公园—Blanding1、半途而废的恶魔花园徒步道2、初见天空之岛3、Upheaval Dome，流星撞地球4、地球上的火星地貌D19（10月8日）Blanding—纪念碑谷—Kanab1、像阿甘一样奔跑2、在纪念碑谷拍一组大片D20（10月9日）Kanab1、波浪谷再次抽2、珊瑚粉沙丘州立公园，没有沙滩摩托就别去了3、日落锡安4、我想开餐厅D21（10月10日）Kanab—锡安国家公园—Kanab1、Angels Landing，勇敢者之路D22（10月11日）Kanab—Las Vegasl1、走，打枪去2、买，买，买D23（10月12日）Las Vgas—死亡谷—优胜美地国家公园1、迷茫死亡谷2、误闯入的风景D24（10月13日）优胜美地1、在Glacier Point，与半圆丘两两相望2、Tunnel View，无处不在的半圆丘3、新娘纱瀑布，你的面纱呢？4、寻找酋长岩，却拾一片秋D25（10月14日）优胜美地—旧金山1、抵达旧金山，归途倒计时D26（10月15日）旧金山1、洗车费100刀？2、招摇过市叮叮车3、花园锦簇，九曲花街4、渔人码头，到此一游5、旧金山，夜的魅结束语 预告片1— 纪念碑谷在纪念碑谷拍一组大片。空旷、荒凉，却有一种惊心动魄的美。 预告片2——拱门国家公园都说Delicate Arce的落日极美，但好天气也需要好运气。没有好运气时，至少我还可以有好心情。 预告片3——优胜美地国家公园在斑斓的秋色面前，很多时候，我只是配角。 预告片4——马蹄湾无数次在别人的照片里看到马蹄湾，但再美的风景，也只是别人镜头里的风景，只有当你亲临此境，此时此地，于是，这风景方才成为你的风景。预告片5——丹麦小镇Solvang如果你去丹麦小镇Solvang，记得一定带上两样东西：漂亮裙子和摄影师。 D1（9月20日）上海——广州——旧金山一张申报单换回300美元罚款3月，在天巡网搜9月下旬上海往返旧金山的机票，最便宜的机票竟然是携程上放出的南航，往返机票仅4967元，5000元不到。好处显而易见，便宜，但缺点是并非直飞，要到广州转机。去时在广州住上一夜，回程时广州中转2小时。但这缺点与便宜的票价相比，几乎可以忽略不见。广州，十年没去了，去时住一晚，喝个早茶再登机，怎么想都挺美。所以，还没办好美国证，我们已把去美国的往返机票买好了。现在办美并不难，自己填好160表，预约好面，带着轻松心情去面，有问必答，过关概率极高。而且，一就是十年。最重要的是，有了美，再办其他国家的证，会容易很多。要说办美的经验，我唯一的建议便是，老实。老实填写表格，老实回答问。只要你不是格外特殊，去美国的目的让面官生疑，一般都易通过。在飞机上时，空姐便发放了《美国海关申报单》。以往，对于其他国家的申报单我一律填写NO，但这次，申报单上关于是否携带了肉类一项，让我有点犹豫。因为小美丽在旧金山，受朋友所托，带给她两袋香肠。行前小美丽告诉我说，只要香肠是真空包装就没问。但看到申报单上这一项，我还是踌躇了半晌，要不要老实申报呢？与蟋蟀头商量了一下，我还是决定申报。后来，我非常庆幸自己这一决定。出海关时，递上护照和申报单，移民局官员问我，“你申报的肉类是什么？”“sausage。”我看着这个长着一张华裔面孔的移民局官员，竟想脱口而出“香肠。” “香肠？好吧，后面海关检查行李时，香肠有可能会被没收，也可能不被没收，但你填写了申报单，至少不会被罚款。” 他说道。再接着问了一下我们的旅行目的地、天数，以及我们在国内都是做什么工作，就让我们分别按指纹，盖章通过了。取行李后，我们推着行李车跟随人流往前走，却不料被不远处的两位海关人员叫住，招手要我们过去检查行李。为什么是我们？看看我们前后也没有其他人被叫过去，心里诧异。检查就检查，反正我们的行李中也没什么违禁物品。我倒是心安理得，早已忘了箱中的两袋香肠。直到海关人员开箱检查，拎出两袋香肠，告诉我说，“这个，没收，罚款300美元。”话音毕，2袋香肠便被扔进了旁边的垃圾桶。300美元？我的头一下大了。想起之前移民官的话，赶紧从包里掏出申报单递过去说道：“我有申报！”海关人员把申报单看了看，问道：“你申报的就是这个香肠？”我赶紧点头。“好吧，不用罚款了，但是下次再也不要带香肠了。” 听她这样一说，我才大吁一口气。而旁边被检查行李的同胞中，月饼也被扔进了垃圾桶。后来与小美丽讨论此事，她说我不应该填写申报表，就是因为填写了申报表，海关才会查验我的行李。可是申报表在我的包里，海关人员检查我的行李前，并不知道我有申报。“你难道取完行李没有上交申报单？不是有人站在那里收申报单吗？”小美丽问。小美丽接着说，取完行李后，应该有人在那里收申报单，填了申报单的走一列，会一个个被检查行李；没填申报单的走另一列，不会被检查行李。但实际上，我们真没看见有人在收申报单，我们也只是跟随人流往前走而已。下一次，我可能就不填申报单了。但这一次，我很庆幸，填写了申报单。后来的美国之行，愈发让我们感受到，美国人对规则的遵守。所以，在美国旅行，还是老实遵守他们的规定比较好。 租车——首度体验美国人的耐心推着行李走出机场。在我想像中，以为租车柜台就在到达大厅里一字排开，没想到，所谓的到达大厅并不大，也没有看到想像中的租车柜台，但示还算清楚，便随着“Car Rental”的示一路走过去，拐了几道弯，进电梯，上楼，出电梯后竟来到一个类似于地铁站台的地方，左右两边分别是蓝线Blue Line和红线Red Line的train。我有点懵了，依稀记得取车单上似乎有提过红线和蓝线，于是，赶紧翻出取车单，这段用红色明的重要文字，我居然这时才仔细阅读：MEETING POINT Car Rental Facility can be accessed by Air Trans train. The RED line train runs between Terminals. The BLUE line train goes from the terminals to the Consolidated Car Rental Facility. Airport signs will direct you to the Train boarding areas.读完后方知，原来红线车是在不同的候机楼之间运行，而蓝线车则是从候机楼到租车区。所以，我们应该坐蓝线车，而终点站就是租车区。很快，蓝线车来了，人流一涌而入，很快就把车厢塞满了。坐蓝线的人，应该都是去租车区取车的吧。我只是想，为何从没人在攻略里提及旧金山机场取车要坐蓝线车呢？旧金山机场的示非常清楚，顺着示走，绝不会迷路。当然，我们顺着这股人流走，也不会迷路。进电梯，下楼，出电梯，终于来到我想像中租车柜台一字排开的租车区，但，租车区比我想像中大很多，完全不是国内机场租车区可比，而且每个租车公司都占了一大片区域，且每个租车公司的柜台前都排满了人。找到我们的租车公司FOX后，买杯咖啡，排队取车。因为小美丽在微信中告诉我，“你们就慢慢排队吧，一般至少排队一小时才能取到车”。排队一小时？看着前面排队的几十个人，再看看五六个柜台前同时办公的工作人员，我很怀疑真的要一小时。但实际结果是，真的排了一个多小时才轮到我们。只不过，这一小时的排队时间里，所有人都安安静静，不急不躁。在后面的27天里，我们陆陆续续在许多细节方面感受到美国人的耐心。比如，开车在路上时，他们不会急于超车，更不会随便插队，你如果开得慢，他就在后面慢慢跟着，不急不缓；比如，我在拍照，挡了他们的路，他们就在后面耐心等着，等我拍完再走，不急不催。后来，我和蟋蟀头讨论，美国人这种耐心，与其说是耐心，但其实是素质。租车柜台前接待我们的又是一位华裔面孔的工作人员，只不过，他一句中文也不会，美语顺溜得如果不看他的脸，肯定会把他当成纯粹的美国人。递过去蟋蟀头的护照和驾驶证，以及取车单，工作人员就开始为我们办理取车手续。至于我们出发前蟋蟀头特地去办理的驾驶证公证件，从头到尾没有用过。其实如果你是在加州租车，是不需要出示驾驶证公证件的，因为加州交规中有明确，认可中国驾照。美国有50个州，每个州都有不同法规，所以租车前要搞清楚这个州是否接受中国驾照。基本上，美国西部的州都认可中国驾照，而东部的州不大认可，需要办理驾驶证公证件。当然，驾照公证件的有效期与驾照一致，所以打算今后还想在国外自驾的，花200元办个公证件也无不可。所以，蟋蟀头说他要去办驾照公证件时，我也不拦他，但没想到的是，办这个驾驶证公证件时，蟋蟀头居然被国内公证处的办证人员给坑了200元。工作人员问他，要几个翻译件？蟋蟀头说，按规矩来吧，应该办几个就几个。然后，办证人员就给他办了2个，一共花了400元。问在于，这两个证件一模一样，没有任何区别，哪有必要弄两个完全一样的翻译件呢？唉，说到国内这些公务人员，除了叹气，可能就是骂人了。租车很顺利，原本预定的车型是Jeep的自由光，工作人员帮我们做了免费升级，升级为Jeep一款更好的SUV，至于是哪个型号，我忘了。当时工作人员说可以帮我升级车型时，我只关注一点，同样价格？在得到他的明确答复后，我就眉开眼笑了。当时有两种车型任我们选择，我是车盲，蟋蟀头对那两款车型也不熟悉，便请工作人员帮忙，他指着一款车型说，“这个更好，很多人都选它。”我俩同意了他的建议。他虽然长着一张华裔的脸孔，我们却相信他，不会像国内那些坑人的官僚。租车推荐网站：https//www.economycarrentals.com/这是一个租车平台，非常好用，重要的是，价格比许多网站便宜。租车订单提交，收到确认单后，才会知道是哪家租车公司提供租车服务。预定时需支付预付款，提车前可以免费取消，所以预定车辆后，如果后面看到租金有降，可以取消订单，重新下单，整个过程方便快捷，且不会有任何多余费用。所以，我原本租的JEEP是Alomo公司提供，两个月后，发现同样车型，租金却便宜了1000多人民币，所以赶紧取消订单，重新下单，然后发现提车的这家公司变成了FOX。就名气而言，Alomo比Fox要知名很多，Fox只是一家小公司，但我们体验下来，无论服务，还是车的质量，都感觉不错。我们的租车费用，9月20日-10月16日，27天，5257元人民币。关于油，选的是满油还车return with full 。 飞过大洋来看你办完租车手续后，上楼提车。不一会儿功夫，我们便驾着一辆八成新的JEEP驶出租车区，正式开始我们的美国自驾行。我们在国内已预先在某宝买了TomTom的导航仪以及美国AT&T的手机卡，选的流量套餐是：高速流量4GB（4G/3G网速）+无限流量（2G网速）。美国虽比中国发达，但手机网络的覆盖率和速度则不敢恭维。AT&T是美国网络覆盖率最广信号最好的运营商，但即使是AT&T，在很多区域仍然没有信号，比如一号公路的部分路段、大峡谷国家公园、Page。。。后来在美西路上驾驶时，时不时没有网络信号，我们也渐渐习以为常。所以，想在美国自驾，只依赖手机Google地图是不行的，必须配备一个GPS，没有网络时依然可以导航。所以，我买的这个手机卡，即使我们在美国呆了整整27天，同时开热点给蟋蟀头使用，但因为美西的部分地区无信号，所以回国时，手机卡仍有很多流量。刚上车的心情，愉悦中带着兴奋，但开出取车区没多久，匝道太多，不熟悉，来不及换道，蟋蟀头便开错道了，绕了好大一圈，才终于驶上正道。出道不顺，却丝毫没影响我们心情。“刚开始嘛，等我熟悉一下就好，” 蟋蟀头的心态永远比我要好，不像我，容易着急。我预先订好的酒店位于旧金山市中心的联合广场附近，距离旧金山机场车程20分钟左右。一路高速公路，倒是方便快捷，只是进入市区后，道路开始复杂起来，特别是酒店附近，单行道很多，车道开错，又得重来，所以，我们竟在酒店外绕了两三圈，才终于在酒店对面的停车场停好车。旧金山市区的车道虽然复杂，却极为有趣，特别是我们酒店所处区域，坡度很大，道路极陡，不便驾驶，却很刺激。酒店不大，小巧干净，胜在位置极佳。前台为我们办理check in手续的年轻男子又长着一张华裔面孔，这有点让我感叹，旧金山的华人还真是多啊，我们初抵美国不久，从入境、租车到酒店check in，工作人员竟都是华裔，不过，这个华裔会说中文，而且说得还较好，应该在美国的时间不长。酒店房间稍旧，但还算干净，只不过床头柜上的电话居然如此复古，让我们有点意想不到。即使在中国，也很少见到这样的电话了。 行李放好后，稍微梳洗，我们便准备出门了，去圣荷西Soe Jose会小美丽。初抵美国的几小时 ，见到太多华裔，真有点怀疑这是美国吗？直到出门时，抬头，看见高高的楼上飘扬着的星条旗，嗯 ，我们的确已经在美国了。 去圣荷西的车程1小时，我有点后悔，应该把这第一晚的酒店订在圣荷西，而非旧金山。开车出发时已是下午5点过，路途中，小美丽打来电话，“我们还是去圣荷西的REI碰头吧，今天是周日，REI晚上7点就要关门，如果你们来我家，我们再去REI，会来不及了。”REI是美国，甚至是全球最大的户外用品店，玩户外的人，到了美国，怎能不去逛REI？甚至于，REI对我们的吸引力比outlets还要大。可以不去逛Outlets，但绝不能不去逛REI。REI在美国有上百家门店，圣荷西这家门店规模不算大，远不及旧金山市区的那家REI。但当时留给我们shopping的时间仅半小时，即使门店不算大，但对于这半小时来说也太大了。店里的户外用品琳琅满目，让我们目不睱接，所幸旅程结束时还有机会去旧金山的REI购物，否则，只留半小时给REI，会让我们悔青了肠子。小美丽说，我们是有多爱户外啊，在美国的第一张合影，居然就是在户外店。 离开REI，小美丽和男友Amir带我俩去吃饭。我们来到一个类似于酒吧的典型美式餐厅，餐厅内响着热闹的音乐，四面墙上挂满电视，正播放着各类节目，以体育赛事为主。Amir说想请我们吃最正宗的美式美食，而汉堡和鸡翅就是美国年青人的最爱。意想不到的是，美国人竟爱吃辣，而辣鸡翅就是这家餐厅的主打。小美丽知道我们嗜辣，尤其蟋蟀头，无辣不成菜，所以特地点了最辣的鸡翅，连服务员也再三与她确认，“确定要点重辣吗？”一大篮辣鸡翅端上来，辣是足够辣，但辣得太直接，除了辣，还是少了许多滋味，不像四川的麻辣、湖南的香辣或者贵州的酸辣。就美食来说，美国当然无法与中国相比。原以为我们会难以忍受美国单调的饮食，但没想到，我们在美国的27天里，虽吃得简单，却津津有味，不觉厌烦。蟋蟀头爱上了牛排，而我则爱上了可乐。一般来说，去一个国家旅行，如果适应了当地的饮食，便没什么不能适应了。 Amir是小美丽读书时跑步认识的，对她一见钟情。与她一样，喜欢运动，热爱户外。彼时我们四人吃饭时他还是她的男朋友，待我们美西玩了一圈，回国后，他们已注册结婚，成为她的先生。可能小美丽自己也没想到，她的姻缘会发生在地球的另一半。但其实啊，这世间所有的情缘，其实都是恰逢其时，早有安排。 D2（9月21日）旧金山—蒙特雷—卡梅尔—大苏尔第一次自助加油，101刀？按计划，今天会沿一号公路，从旧金山开到圣西蒙。沿途会经过的小镇有：Pacifica——半月弯Half moon Bay——santa cruz —— 蒙特雷Monterey——17 Mile Drive——卡梅尔Carmel——大苏尔Big Sur——圣西蒙SanSimeon，其中红字的是一号公路上的精华点，需停车游玩。车程6小时，加上游玩拍照时间2-3小时，预计全程8-9小时，只要早上9点出发，这一天的行程应该是绰绰有余。绰绰有余，其实是我想得太美。计划就是计划，而变化永远会比计划要多。早上9点， 我们已经在酒店check out，准备上路了。这个时间出发，尚在可控中。蟋蟀头没有赖床不起，让我甚为满意。 酒店对面有一个公共停车场public parking，我们的车就停在那里。一晚的停车费.74，在酒店前台缴费。前一天停车时，告知工作人员我们住对面酒店，停车场便出具了一张单子，让我们在酒店缴费盖章，然后便可以停一天一夜。.74，好贵的停车费，但如果不是住对面酒店，估计停车费用更贵。照美国这种停车费准来看，中国的停车费还大有上涨空间。好在美国只是城市内要收停车费，国家公园是不收停车费的，否则我们这自驾27天，停车费都是好大一笔数字。此时停车场外已排成长队。我一边排队，一边心里嘀咕着，怎么取车也要排队？9点过的加州阳光，已经毒辣得人睁不开眼。我傻乎乎地排队十多分钟后，忽然想起，这停车场里好像有一个租车office，会不会有可能这些排队的人是为租车，而非停车场取车？我走到最前面一看，果然不出所料，停车场里有一个Alamo的租车办公室，难怪这里会排成长队。有点后悔刚才自己不闻不问，就开始傻傻地排队，但也庆幸，仅排队十多分钟而已，没有浪费一小时才发现原来站错队。耽误了半小时，上午930，我俩终于妥妥地坐在车里，把Pacifica设置为我们的第一个导航点，便出发，正式开始我们的美西自驾行。但这一天正值美国的工作日，旧金山市区内拥堵的车流，再次出乎我预料。google地图显示的只需25分钟即可抵达Pacifica，看来是不可能了。我们的车跟在有轨电车叮叮车的后面，缓慢地行驶着。慢摇慢晃的叮叮车，让我们生出极大兴趣，决定待回程时一定要坐一趟叮叮车。实际上，穿行于闹市区的叮叮车早已不仅仅是单纯的交通工具，而成为旧金山的一大风景，是来旧金山的游客必定会体验的项目之一。 堵车、单行道、对路不熟，这几项加起来，导致我俩开着车在市区内兜了好几转才终于开出旧金山，蟋蟀头开玩笑说，他现在已对旧金山的路非常熟悉了。在Pacific找加油站加油时，才发现时间已经过去了整整一个半小时。而这原本应该是计划中的20分钟车程！之前看攻略，发现大家都喜欢到加油站所属小超市里找店员，付现加油，主要是因为自助加油刷信用卡时，很多时候需要输入美国当地的5位数ZIP CODE，我们国内的信用卡，哪有什么美国邮编啊，所以无法自助加油。但第一次加油，我仍想体验下自助加油，万一可以刷卡呢？美国的汽油分为Regular、Plus、Premium三种，一般选Regular（87）即可。加油机上有操作说明，简单易懂。把信用卡插入后，快速拉出，然后按提示选择credit card，如果没有跳出提示让你输入ZIP CODE，便可进行下一步，取油枪，选择要加的油号（Regular 87），开始加油了。油箱加满后，油枪会自动跳掉，然后便会从信用卡里扣除相应油费。但我们的第一次自助加油，卡在了第一步。信用卡插入后，如果没有快速拉出，便不会进入到下一步。但当时我并不清楚这一点，不知问出在何处。于是，我便进店里请求帮助。一个大叔热情地随我出来，教我一步步操作完。最后，油加满，油费的收费单自动打印出来，上面显示加油费.62(单价.099/G)。当时，我并不知道我的信用卡被扣01，离开加油站一小时后，才发现招行发给我的微信显示，我的卡在加油站被扣了1。我吓了一跳，赶紧掏出收费条，再看一遍，但上面明明注明加油费.62，我又怎么会被扣1呢？可当时已离开加油站一小时，返回去询问是不可能了，收费条上也没有加油站的电话，唯一的办法只有打给招行。招行服务很好，打通电话后，测出我是从国外打的电话，便自动转入人工服务，省去我一步步操作所需时间。向招行确认后，当时的确从我的卡里刷走101美元，而非101元人民币。“加油怎么可能要101美元？”我大惑不解，更被这莫名其妙刷掉的101美元感到心痛。招行客服安慰我说，他们会跟踪这笔交易，三天后给我回复。当然，最后被刷走的实际金额仍然是.62，而非01。这1应该只是预授权而已。后来自助加油时也曾发生，明明加油1.16，而当时却只被刷走。我自然也没有捡到这个便宜，该付多少钱最后仍会付多少钱。美国发达的信用卡机制，应该不会让人随便有机可乘，但这不经我许可，便随易乱扣的预授权，还是让人有点害怕。 半月弯——差点错过的风景加州一号公路的大名，你即使没去过，也不会没有听说过。蜿蜒于美国西海岸，从北向南将旧金山与洛杉矶相连在一起的一号公路，是所有人从旧金山自驾到洛杉矶的不二之选。所不同的只在于，你会在这条路线上花多少时间，两天，三天还是一周？甚至于，你愿意在路途中的某个小镇住上一个月，也不是不可能。一号公路太美，而路上那些小镇又如此梦幻，以至于在走完这条路线后，让我知道，我只留了两天时间给一号公路，是多么愚蠢的一个决定。但我的选择不仅是我的无奈，也是大多到美西自驾游的人的无奈，无奈的原因无非就是——时间。虽然一号公路的大部分路段都是沿海公路，开错路的可能性极小，但为了不错过每个景点，所以我们的GPS是一个点一个点地进行设置。离开Pacifica时，我无意中忘记了半月弯Half moon Bay，而把导航的下一个点设置到鸽点灯塔Pigeon Point Light 。当蓝色的太平洋进入视线后，自驾便多了一分浪漫与惬意。见路边停着几辆车，我俩便也停车下来，想看看他们停车的风景。走出车门，一阵海风迎面而来，带着阳光的气息。远处，蔚蓝的海水，冲刷出一段月牙般的海湾，拿出手机google地图一看，我们此时果然是在半月弯。不该你错过的风景，怎么也不会错过。 鸽点灯塔Pigeon Point Light——意义大于景致距离半月弯仅半小时车程的鸽点灯塔，是加州州立历史地，始建于1870年，至今已有145年，仍在被美国海岸警备队使用，是美国西海岸线上现役灯塔中最高的一个。树立在灯塔前的一个木牌上有鸽点灯塔的介绍，对它的评价极高，称它为加州的精神象征。我不懂为何灯塔被抬到精神象征的高度，难道是因为它在这一个半世纪里，指引了无数从加州海岸南面航行的船只，安全进入旧金山湾？ 如果你仔细观察灯塔，会发现它的顶端光秃秃的，那个巨大的灯塔透镜呢？灯塔顶部的的菲涅尔透镜由1008块玻璃组成，是当时世界上最大的灯塔透镜，据说发出的光线能让40多公里外的船只看见。之前每年的11月，这里都会举行一次盛大的活动，用100多年前的方法来点灯，利用煤油灯和透镜所折射出来的光芒，相当于点亮了50万支蜡烛，从而吸引了无数摄影师前来拜访。当然，今年的11月是不会有这个活动了。因为那个有名的灯塔透镜，现在正乖乖地躺在灯塔附近的小屋里。虽然灯塔在无数次风暴以及1906和1989年的地震中幸存，但灯塔透镜仍在岁月的磨砺中受到损坏，需要修缮。目前正由加州州立公园基金会，一个独立的非盈利组织筹集修复灯塔所需资金，一旦资金筹措到位，便会启动修复计划。灯塔透镜不再高高在上，却给了我们一个近距离观察它的好机会。 我没有灯塔情结，所以这个高高矗立的白色灯塔，对我没有太多吸引力。对我来说，它不过是一号公路上的一个景点，顺路拜访而已。相较而言，这海上的风景更为养眼。白色的浪花重重拍打着礁石，却能抚平心里泛起的层层涟漪，直到内心如海水一般纯粹。 鲜花盛开蒙特雷在一号公路的所有景点中，从景致而言，鸽点灯塔是微不足道的，再加上仅一个灯塔而已，所以我预计呆上20分钟，拍张纪念照就可以离开了。但，我们却在鸽点灯塔停留了整整2个小时，因为蟋蟀头喜欢灯塔，不仅从各个角度拍灯塔，仔细观察灯塔透镜，甚至连灯塔旁边的纪念品小屋也要慢慢逛一逛，花32.7刀买下一个灯塔纪念品。看看时间已到下午230，我们却还逗留于鸽点灯塔，几乎可以说是一号公路的启始点，我快疯了。蟋蟀头不做攻略，攻略由我一人包办，所以虽然他在开车，却几乎不清楚我们每天的行程，我只是在每天出发前给他大概讲一下我们当天的车程，以及会去的地方。我反复对他强调，和后面的风景相比，这里什么也不算，而后面的景点还有一长串。就这样不断催促，我们竟然也停留了2个小时。从鸽点灯塔到蒙特雷，车程1小时20分钟。为节省时间，我们在路上的超市买了点零食，在车上解决了午餐。后来的20多天，在车上解决午餐甚至晚餐，早已成为常态。下午4点到达蒙特雷。之前看攻略，提到蒙特雷，一般都是讲它的渔人码头，以至于我心目中的蒙特雷，就是一个喧哗的海边小城。但第一眼的蒙特雷，却着实把我们惊艳了。鲜花盛开，安静雅致。 街上几乎无人，此时的蒙特雷，静谧得如同一座空城。我知道蟋蟀头已经开始后悔，之前在鸽点灯塔浪费了太多时间；而我也开始后悔，为什么不在蒙特雷住上一晚？当然，后面的小镇，各有特色，而每个小镇都令我们有想住下来的冲动。 蒙特雷的气息令人着迷，适合陶醉，也适合沉迷。假装扮下文艺，也无不可。 去蒙特雷游玩的人，大多都直奔渔人码头（Fisherman's Wharf）。有人曾在攻略里大力推荐，认为蒙特雷的渔人码头比旧金山的渔人码头更值得一去，因为这里海狮更多。所以离开鸽点灯塔时，我们把GPS直接定位到蒙特雷的渔人码头。在渔人码头附近看到一个停车点，正打算停车，工作人员却告诉我们说，现在这里暂时不能停车，要换另一个地点停车，并给了我们一张纸，上面有停车点的具体地址以及详细的路线指引。但用google地图搜索后发现，工作人员介绍的这个停车点距离渔人码头很远，走过去可要花一点时间。蟋蟀头说，我们自己另找停车位吧。便思忖着去找一个路边的停车位。在美国停车，主要有两种，一种是公共停车场public parking，另一种是路边停车street parking。路边停车有停车线，而且停车位旁通常有咪表，需先缴费买停车时间。但我们居然在蒙特雷的一条小街上找到一个没有咪表的停车位。看看前后，路边上都停满车，而且的确没有咪表，当然也没有像国内那样的收费员。后来在美西自驾20多天，停过各式各样的地方，在旧金山、洛杉矶停车时支付过高昂的停车费，也在国家公园和所有的小镇几乎没支付过停车费，这才发现美国的停车费制度其实非常合理。那就是收费并非一刀切，而且收费是为控制，并非只为赚钱。人少车少的地方，不收停车费；人多车多的地方，收高昂的停车费。但即使是旧金山，到了晚上，路边停车也几乎不收费，因为这时候车少啊，没有必要收费。 传说中“游客云集”的渔人码头，人并不多。难道，现在是蒙特雷的淡季？但其实，渔人码头的栈道两边都是餐厅、咖啡馆和酒吧，当时已是下午4点过，既过了午餐时间，也不到晚餐时间，游客们可能在潜水，也可能在观鲸船上，码头上人不多倒也正常。 太平洋的海水，真让人怀疑是神不小心泼洒下的蓝墨水，蓝得如此纯净。但如果蒙特雷是一个人迹罕至的孤岛倒也罢了，明明这里游人趋之若鹜，海水却依然如此干净清透，没有国内景点常见的垃圾与海水中脏污的浮沫，是令我们诧异的。 海狮呢，海狮呢？我心心念念只想搜寻海狮。明明在别人的照片里看见，蒙特雷渔人码头的海岸边趴着一群群的海狮，为何我却只见海鸟，不见海狮。为此我还特地去问了一个看上去是久住此地的大叔，问他哪儿可以看见海狮？他说，没有海狮了。再问为什么？他的回答倒很简单，“no food, no sea lion。”海狮其实是一种迁徙性动物，会因食物或交配而进行迁徙，并不会永居某地。旧金山渔人码头的39号码头，在1989年旧金山大地震后，迁徙来了上千头海狮，并繁衍得越来越多，却也曾因为海狮要到南方海域交配，而突然之间消失得无影无踪。所以，如果你没在旧金山和蒙特雷的渔人码头看到海狮，其实也不奇怪。 没有看到海狮，但面向大海，弹支曲子，也很不错哦。虽是“假装”弹琴，但蒙特雷明亮的蓝天，纯粹的大海，此情此景，都令人心生留恋。 在蟋蟀头的镜头中，蒙特雷既可以简约清丽，也可以用多重爆光玩点技术。而重点是，我俩都爱蒙特雷。([]

林立妃肩上背的手上挂的怀着某种急切的、甚至忐忑的心情，一层一层地打开自家的门。一切依旧，除了门口的一层薄薄的灰尘。放下行李，打开窗户，眼睛在日历上停留了片刻，那是出行时的日期——4月1日。我有点费力地一迭迭地撕，直撕到今天的日子——5月1日。它明我的自驾游已经走了一个月，或确切地说走了31天。 旅行是一种生活方式。 有一种风景具有长久的磁性的迷惑力，有一种文化会使我们更易于接受自然界的的诱惑，有一种向往自由的心使我们更敏感于刻板生活的窒息。于是就有了间歇性的、类似病理性的反应，轮回式地隔段时间去走走，去发泄，去观察，去欣赏，等等。 例行文字： D1：福建省宁德市七都 D2：福建省泉州市开元寺、清净寺、洛阳桥、安平桥 D3：厦门鼓浪屿、南普陀、海滨浴场 D4：田螺坑土楼 D5：路上，晚宿广州市 D6：黄埔军校旧址、开平碉楼、赤坎镇 D7：路上，晚宿三亚市 D8：亚龙湾海滩、三亚湾海滩 D9：尖峰岭、天涯海角 D10：三亚湾 D11：博鳌、文昌市、海口市 D12：买轮胎、路上，晚宿北海市 D13：北海银滩、红树林 D14：明仕田园、德天大瀑布 D15：通灵大峡谷 D16：阳朔西街 D17：漓江漂流、月亮山 D18：大榕树、象鼻山，晚宿三江县 D19：肇兴侗寨 D20：荔波小七孔桥 D21：西江苗寨 D22：镇远 D23：路上，晚宿梵净山农家乐 D24：梵净山 D25：凤凰 D26：张家界袁家界、天子山 D27：张家界金鞭溪、黄龙洞 D28：路上，晚宿恩施梭布垭石林景区 D29：荆州古城 D30：钟祥市明显陵夜宿婺源 D31：兰溪市诸葛村——回家 全程的第一张照片，记录我的新车公里数：3138KM 全程的最后的一张照片，记录车至朋友家门口的公里数：12103KM。12103-3138=8965，也就是说我们大约自驾游走了九千公里。 在梅州市至广州市的高速公路上堵车1小时，始有了我的新车菲亚特/菲翔的首拍照片，是它的优良性能保证了旅途的安全。 本次出游共4人：醉翁之意，即我，全程驾驶员；翁嫂，拙妻，刚拿到驾照，尚不能跑高速，只能作紧急情况下的备用力量；我的一位老友许先生和他的妻子（按照网络上的习惯，我正考虑给他们取个网名）。现在应早点进入正，其他的有关旅行中的实用性建议或经验教训等将在后续部分添加或补叙。第1天福建省宁德市七都4月1日由于一些琐事的延搁，我们直至下午1点钟才动身。心里想，筹划了这么久的计划终于去实行了。心一直为禁锢所苦，这下子轻快了，自由在前方指引。下午才从温州出发，跑不了多远，最远可到福州。但我对大城市毫无兴趣，从一座钢筋水泥跑到另一座钢筋水泥，有什么意义呢。且中国的城市大都千人一面，有特色的寥寥无几。闽北是温州的门槛，太姥山已去了两次，福鼎市也买过水产。想起上次看朋友手机上的一张照片，那是涂滩，河图洛书般的天书图案，抽象美啊。朋友告诉我那是宁德市的七都，今天就冲着去七都。5点钟到了七都，顺着沿涂滩的公路，雨势渐大。打伞去问渔家，他说拍摄点正在这附近，只是现在是退潮时间，要到潮水涨到半淹涂滩上的栅栏时才好看。我问，那会是几点呢？他笑着说，得明天11点。哇哈，等不及了，看来我不是摄影中人，没这份耐心。胡乱拍了几张“舟自横”的照片，就去宁德市投宿了。 回温州后，我给我的一位热爱摄影的同学通了个电话。他说在七都摄影要侯天气、时间和潮水，要登上附近的山头，下面是他拍摄的照片，你看多美啊。 第2天 开元寺、清净寺、洛阳桥、安平桥 说城市都千人一面也不尽然，比如说这泉州。当红砖白窗低层楼房初入眼帘时，你会眼睛一亮。但当大片的连街倒巷满目红砖屋出现在眼前时，你真有说不出的诧异，疑为进入异域。在这有着海上“丝绸之路”起点之称的，有着世界性文化沉淀的“海滨邹鲁”的回光返照下，我驱车到了开元寺。 曾在唐开元26年，唐玄宗下令在凡因战争而造成重大伤亡的地方建寺，以超度亡灵，寺均以“开元”命名，因此全国以“开元寺”命名的寺不知其数。 开元寺是福建省最大的寺庙，建于唐武则天垂拱二年（（686年） 寺庙两侧为东西两塔，高40米，是泉州市的象征和志。塔为石塔，周身有点发黑，显现沧桑。 下为佛教中大名鼎鼎的菩提树 一代高僧多才多艺的弘一法师李叔同在泉州弘法修持是最长的。丰子恺、潘天寿均为其门下，下面的歌词即为丰子恺抄录。([]

王仪谕塔敏查干沙漠穿越游记 4月30日，我和妈妈随科尔沁户外俱乐部一行28余人乘坐公共汽车前往内蒙古通辽市库伦旗，进行负重沙漠露营穿越户外活动。 塔敏查干沙漠位于库伦旗，属于哲里木盟辖旗。“库伦”系蒙古语译音,意为“有围墙的地方”。位于哲里木盟西南部。东邻科尔沁左翼后旗，南靠辽宁省阜新蒙古族自治县和彰武县，西连奈曼旗，北接开鲁县。面积4 650平方公里,人口16.8万,其中蒙古族占60%。辖5镇7苏木3乡。旗府驻库伦镇,距盟府140公里,海拔250.6米。元属中书省辖。明初属大宁卫。明末先后属察哈尔部、内喀尔喀部。清初形成唯一的政教合一的喇嘛旗称库伦旗，因曼苏希礼喇嘛从西藏来此传经布法，故名曼珠希礼库伦旗，1933年改库伦旗。解放后先属热河省辖,后归内蒙古自治区辖（1969～1979年曾归吉林省辖）。养畜牧河横贯中部，河南为黄土丘陵沟壑区，属燕山余脉；河北是地甸地，属西辽河冲积平原边缘属大陆性气候。地势西南高,东北低。水土流失造成沟壑纵横,北部沙化严重。年均温6.3℃,年均降水量426.9毫米，无霜期140-150天。矿藏有铁、钨、铜、石灰石、大理石、氟石、珍珠岩、砂等。有5条地方干线公路,纵横境内。工业有建材、电力、地毯、酿酒、制革、鞋帽、皮毛加工、农机、民用铸造、水泥、印刷、制砖、柳编、塑编、制药等行业。以农为主,农牧林结合,多种经营。农业主产玉米、高粱、稻谷、小麦、荞麦。有中学16所。是“安代舞”发源地,有“安代之乡”的盛名，由旗乌兰牧骑创作并演出的歌舞剧《安代传奇》被国家文化部认定为新剧种－－科尔沁蒙古剧。古迹有兴源寺和福缘寺、象教寺,境内有50余座辽代古墓,其中“一号辽墓”,壁画面积约180平方米,是中国古代艺术史上的瑰宝. 30日中午我们到达库伦，午餐后参观了三大寺院，然后到库伦旗繁华的商业中心购物，见识了当地的风味食品，游览了旗中心的人民广场，下午3点左右，乘坐大巴前往穿越起点，在乡间公路颠簸了一个多小时左右到了一个不知名的小村子。 这个村子离穿越点还有些距离，于是我们就背着行囊徒步前行，大约走了2公里我们被一条河挡住了去路。怎么过？有的人去联系乘坐交通工具绕行过河，我和妈妈则按照前面驴友的方法背着行囊脱鞋鞋趟河（水很凉，脚下20多公分的淤泥下面还没有完全化冻）。过河后大约徒步补个多小时到达第一露营地，安营扎寨，埋锅造饭。晚餐我们吃了鸡蛋菠菜汤、红焖肉、馕饼。妈妈说吃好了才有体力去穿越沙漠。 餐后，科尔沁户外和长春徒步协会的驴友点篝火，一起狂欢，蒙族驴友叔叔应大家邀请唱起了蒙族歌曲，让我感到了驴友们的朴实，歌声伴着篝火在夜空中飘荡，围着篝火驴友们跳着唱着。高潮时“我的热情好像一把火，燃烧了整个沙漠。沙漠有了我，从此不寂寞……”这歌声恰如其分的诠释了人们当时的心情。5月1日早，9点开始徒步穿越沙漠，领队山峰进行了分组，我和妈妈在一组，擎云叔叔是领队 。我们踩着软软的沙子前行，脚下留下我们坚韧的足迹。沙漠因为我们的穿越显得生机勃勃，不在是沉静。穿越者的的各色装扮点缀着沙漠，人们蜿蜒前行，走在沙脊上看着滴滴汗珠落在沙地里那的印记被大风吹的转瞬即逝。随着时间的推移脚步开始变得沉重，大家每走上一个沙脊都会停下脚步拍照。走累了就休息，喝些水，吃点零食补充些营养继续向着沙漠腹地前进。中午的沙漠很热，真的热情似火。经过一上午的沙漠穿越，下午大家都自动放慢脚步，慢慢沿着沙脊朝着露营地方向前进。因为我们是第一队，在前面，怕和大家离得太远，老卒大伯决定在一个沙山上休息，等山峰他们，我和妈妈就卸下背包睡了一觉。后来好些驴友叔叔上来了我们一起前行，经过了“漫长”的两个小时跋涉（说“漫长”，亲身经历的人就会懂），傍晚我们选择了养畜牧河边作为我们的第二露营地安营。休息一会，我们开始搭建临时的家。好几十顶帐篷列队排开，真壮观。晚餐后，伴随着落日余晖我们大家爬上周围的沙山开始了一天最轻松的拍照欢乐时光。 夜晚，躺在帐篷里听着河边此起彼伏的蛙声，在怎么想不到这是大漠的邻居，养畜牧河的热情和大漠冷峻能够如此的和谐，更增添了沙漠穿越的神秘。听着夜晚大漠的风在吟唱，感受着那冰冷的夜色，渐渐融入梦乡。 2日，早餐后，返程徒步，在乡村小路徒步12.5公里，身体虽然很是疲倦，但途中小雨很清爽使我们的心情格外的轻松。回头望着两天来我们走过的这片沙漠，心里有着很是的不舍，我们只是一群过客，还没来得及深度体验和发现她的雄浑壮阔和更多神秘之处，就离开了。望着因我们的离去又归于沉寂的沙漠，在心里默默祝福再见了大漠，谢谢你给予我的这份神奇经历。 在这里要感谢组织者山峰叔叔、打前站的阿布叔叔和何叔叔、领队擎云叔叔、财务总管蓝月亮姐姐等驴友。同时，很感谢妈妈拉我参加这次穿越而且做窝的随队厨师使我有机会在沙漠穿越中享用奢侈的饭菜！ ([]

萧志成请点击下方的“只看该。虽然褒贬不一，但对大家的支持还是深表感谢。没有团队的配合，没有专业的装备，但我俩有自己的追求和梦想。我俩在实践中不断的学习，我俩的户外经验不断的增加，我俩的探险计划不断的完善，我俩的脚步永远不会终止！ 感谢老天给予我俩多次的化险为夷，更感谢老天让我寻觅到生命中的另一半——能和我共同承担风险的娟子。无论在现实生活的社会中，还是在危机四伏的自然界，我俩相互依靠，不离不弃，相信这种感情基础牢靠无比！ 我俩喜欢人迹罕至的地方，因为那里避开了城市的喧嚣，远离了人间的争斗。听到的只有水声，鸟声，风声，涛声。沉醉在大自然的怀抱中是每个驴友所希望的，当然，美丽与风险共存！ 从千里冰封，万里雪飘的东北，到水秀山青，风轻柳细的江南，我俩的旅途充满了欢笑和泪水。迷茫过，沮丧过，成功过，幸福过，但从没有恐惧过，从没有畏缩过。这些对我俩来说，就是理想中的人生！ 每到一处，留下的只有脚步，带走的只有相片。环保需要从我做起，人人做起。爱护大自然，就是爱护我们自己，也是爱护我们的后代。中国的雾霾，举世震惊，就连深山之中也不能幸免。我们还会拥有多少蓝天净土呢？ 一部老相机，记录了我俩旅途的点滴，留住了难忘的瞬间。还能让我俩在今后的日子里，翻阅从前的回忆。同时感谢8264，为我们提供了交流与学习的平台，也让无数的人中毒不浅！ 废话说了一大堆，该进入正了。这次我和娟子二人挑战的是一座孤岛中阴森庞大的洞穴，还有山民口中描述的明末清初的一座鬼宅。（我的文化不高，什么高中大学和我无缘，写不出妙笔生花的文字，东北人讲究实在，就用最朴实的大白话来叙述吧，请众位驴友见谅！）上篇：孤岛烟儿炮鬼吹灯 这次出游，本意我和娟子打算在大山深处湖中泛舟，欣赏美景。 却无意当中得知，在湖中一座岛上，有一个极其恐怖的洞穴。据山民所讲，几十年前，曾有人找到了这个洞穴，不知何故将洞口凿大，进洞的几人回来后，对洞穴闭口不谈，不久这几人有的身患暴病而死，有的遭遇横祸而亡，无一幸免。从此，这个洞穴再也无人敢进。我和娟子得知后，打听了好几个老人，终于问清洞穴的具体方位。我俩决定一探究竟。 我在这里给亲爱的驴友们一点提示，户外运动风险级别高的，尽量不要轻易挑战。如果喜欢探洞，可以选择一些已经探明而且难度不大的洞穴，探洞之前，多学习一些和洞穴有关的知识，装备很重要，最好有向导，至少三人以上团队，洞口有接应人员。我和娟子虽然也懂这些，但克制不住内心冒险的欲望，虽然积累了一点探洞经验，但像我俩这样，风险系数还是很大，所以请大家以我俩为戒，切勿效仿。 湖中泛舟和在岛上丛林中两天寻洞的详细经历，如果一并发出，这个帖子就太琐碎了，有时间整理一下另外发帖吧。山民所指的这个洞穴，位于湖中最大的一座岛屿上，孤岛由四座山包组合而成。 INTEX68349充气船，价格不高，比较实用，质量也不错，可以一船两用。今年南方酷暑，我在船里加上冷水，再冻几块冰扔进去，人泡在水里上网，几个小时后连骨头都是凉的，浑身打颤，非常爽。而在水中泛舟，划起来一点儿也不费劲儿。 天空中一只苍鹰在我俩头顶盘旋。 这是湖中最大的岛，所以很好找。划到孤岛边上，弃船上岸。这里很偏僻，可以看见野猫的爪印和粪便。一个多月没下雨了，湖水的水位下降了很多。 岛上的丛林还处在原始状态，行走起来非常艰难。由于事先并没打算爬山，所以穿的鞋子也不合适。途中见到两条乌梢蛇在晒太阳，它们吸收热量在为冬眠做准备。 在丛林和岩壁中穿行了三个多小时，也没找到洞口，当晚我和娟子就借宿在附近山村一个孤身老婆婆的家里。第二天又仔细询问了几个人，重新划船来到孤岛上，搜寻了多半天的功夫，在大概的方位找到了水流痕迹。顺着这些痕迹，终于找到了洞穴的入口。淘宝双12，秒杀冲锋衣就要开始了，先去抢购，马上回来更新。淘宝回来，继续更新中。。。。。。 由于这次出来没想探洞，所以随身只带了一把手电。我在洞口观察了一会儿，就和娟子返回了。 探洞的纪录片，我和娟子几乎看遍了。类似《地理中国》，里面有一个共同点，就是采访洞穴附近的村民，他们都把洞穴说的神乎其神，异常恐怖。其实洞穴的危险性，我和娟子也很了解，但绝对不相信什么妖魔鬼怪之说。所以我俩商定，还是进入这个洞穴一探究竟。 三天后，我俩又重新来到了这个地方。 面对黑漆漆的洞口，相信很多人，包括一些老爷们儿，也会感到紧张。不过娟子是典型的女汉子，天生大胆，不让须眉。 进入洞穴后，洞道向下延伸，洞腔比较高，地面也较平坦 。行进大概二十多米，洞道一拐，出现一个40平方米的洞厅。之后洞道开始弯弯曲曲，我俩也完全进入到了黑暗之中。 探洞首先应该注意的是洞内氧气是否够用。由于 CO2 密度是空气的 1.53 倍，所以它常常沉在洞底。但也不是所有洞底 CO2 含量都很高，按经验来讲，洞内突然变的温暖了，或鼻子能感觉到有异味，就说明洞道不畅通，这样的地方就要尽量注意。而凉爽、通风和有水流动的洞道一般都是安全的。 娟子小心的点燃了蜡烛，观察到火苗的颜色没有改变，燃烧正常。相反，如果发现火焰闪烁，就表明氧气不足或二氧化碳含量已达3％，这时要特别注意，具体生理反应是呼吸增快、脉搏加快、头痛、眩晕、耳鸣等。二氧化碳含量达到10％时火苗熄灭，会迅速使人致命。（这是科学的验证方法，并非是摸金校尉的“鬼吹灯”为盗墓做准备，哈哈。） 刚进洞的时候，我感觉到有很急的风，可现在立刻风平浪静了。这应该是“烟囱效应”，它是由于洞口或裂隙高度的不同，造成洞内外不同温度的空气自然对流的现象。“烟囱效应”显示很强的季节变化，冬天洞中的热空气由下而上的运动，夏天则相反；而春秋天，在洞内外压力接近的时候，随洞外昼夜温度的变化，出现每日不同时刻的风向变化。洞内湿气很大，洞顶很多地方都在滴水，低洼的地方并有积水出现。水中可以看到几只非常细小的虾在游动。 这里开始出现少量的钟乳石等钙华沉淀。可能出于形成年代早的原因吧，钙华已遭受严重的溶蚀和风化。 前面传来吱吱的叫声。顺声音寻去，在手电的照射下，一群蝙蝠倒挂在洞顶。洞内蝙蝠屎尿的气味不是很浓。我和娟子三探雨扇洞的时候，遭到一只巨型蝙蝠的攻击，深入洞穴后，里面蝙蝠数量太多，屎尿混合的氨气很浓，刺鼻辣眼，后来怕氨中毒，退了出来。希望这里没有庞大的蝙蝠群。 喀斯特溶洞主要是由地下水对石灰岩进行破坏作用而形成的。由于地下水对岩石的破坏以及岩石的崩塌，使得洞穴不断扩展。以后由于地面抬升或地下水水位降低，溶洞就干涸，并露出地表。 对于沿途出现的支洞，有深有浅，我和娟子只是简单看一看，并没深入。我俩一直顺着主通道前行，地势地貌比较明显，所以没做记。 洞道突然变的狭窄，有些地方需要侧身才能挤过。我和娟子身材都不胖，在这方面还是比较占优势。 脚下出现了很大的裂缝。这主要是由于地壳间断上升，使含水层节节下降，结果就形成了由垂直通道相连的重叠式的层状溶洞。如果我和娟子现在所处位置在第一层，那么下面就应该是第二层了。 下面大概能有近十米深。有一定的坡度，不属于垂直竖井。固定好绳索，我俩依次来到底部。 ([]

毛怡君7天7夜只为看你一眼——2013年10月贡嘎大环线徒步历险记 今年“十一”，我第三次来到贡嘎，带着更大的梦想，那就是要全方位、多角度、近距离地欣赏贡嘎。我们设计的线路也是全新的，几乎把贡嘎美景一网打尽：牛背山、雅哈垭口、子梅垭口、贡嘎寺、大本营（BC）、C1、那玛峰、玉龙西垭口，每一个都是观赏贡嘎的好地方，每一天我们都要与贡嘎相伴。 7天7夜，我们在小雨中前行，在大雪中等待。其中两天在海拔4500米的子梅垭口扎营，两天在海拔4370米的贡嘎大本营等待，3天在海拔3750米的贡嘎寺守望，但连续7天的坏天气，特别是贡嘎大本营连续两天的大雪，把我们的那玛峰攀登梦想完全浇灭，让我们的心冷到冰点。 值得欣慰的是：在我们离开贡嘎大本营准备下撤的那一刻，贡嘎终于被我们的诚心所感动，弥漫了几天的云雾慢慢散开，贡嘎向我们展示出它的气势磅礴和阿娜多姿。而当我们再次返回贡嘎寺的那个晚上，星光灿烂，贡嘎一览无余。 7天7夜的等待只为看你一眼，但一瞬即成永恒。贡嘎，你总在那里，我们还会再来。 时间：9月27日——10月13日共17天

有足道、cquptchh（龟少）、streaking68（裸奔）、岚轩主人（黄大师）、钓猫鱼、周游列国、阿牛（fengniu）；MM：tt007、夭夭2008、妙歌、玉翁锦、晓钰0718。 这次活动定位为摄影，徒步，雪山三合一。牛背山是前奏，那玛峰是高潮，光雾山是放松，而核心则是贡嘎。16天的活动包括牛背山摄影，贡嘎徒步，那玛峰攀登，光雾山摄影四项内容，可以说把川西美景一次看个够。 牛背山：位于四川泸定县、天全县、荥经县三县交界处，是青衣江、大渡河的分水岭，山顶海拔3600米，因山顶一面悬崖有巨石突出酷似牛头，山脊细长貌似牛背而得名。泸定县内山峰众多，是中国5000米以上山峰最多的县，而牛背山就是其中最佳的观景台。牛背山视野开阔，云海壮丽，被誉为“中国最大的观景平台”，是绝佳的摄影圣地。牛背山的云海浓密而均匀、壮阔而平缓，随处可见的瀑布云犹如阿凡达中“哈利路雅山”，让人感觉云中漫步；而四周连绵不断的群山错落有致，层次分明，蜀山之王贡嘎雪山矗立于最高点，泥巴山、娘娘山、瓦屋山、峨眉山、夹金山、四姑娘山和二郎山在前，大渡河大峡谷在后，几乎天府之国的所有名山峻岭在此时都变成了玲珑盆景。翻滚的云雾之下，群山丘陵逐级降低，缓缓融入稻浪翻滚的天府平原。无论是徒步爱好者或是摄影发烧友，牛背山都可谓是顶级行摄之旅。贡嘎山：坐落在青藏高原东部边缘，横断山系的大雪山中段，位于大渡河与雅砻江之间。“贡嘎山”藏语意为“最高的雪山”，山体南北长约60公里，东西宽约30公里，位于四川省康定、泸定、石棉、九龙四县之间。贡嘎山主峰海拔7556米，是四川省最高峰，被称为“蜀山之王”，2005年被《中国国家地理杂志》评选为“中国最美的十大名山”第二名！那玛峰：海拔5588米，是贡嘎卫峰之一，也是贡嘎地区5500米以上山峰中最容易的一座。那玛峰离贡嘎很近，攀登难度不大，为冰川裂缝及冰雪坡地形，天气良好的情况下，可由冰舌末端大本营一天登顶。山顶景色极佳，可以清楚看见整个贡嘎西北山脊和主峰。 光雾山：位于四川盆地东北边缘，川、陕交界处的南江县境内，距陕西汉中市55公里，距西安市304公里，距成都市390公里，距重庆市305公里。景区面积830平方公里，由桃园、大坝景区、十八月潭、神门、小巫峡五大片区组成，集秀峰怪石、峭壁幽谷、溪流瀑潭、田园山林于一体，堪称“山奇、石怪、谷幽、水秀、峰险”五绝。景区自然生态环境独特、森林植被原始古朴、地域空间博大、辐射范围广阔，主要以奇特的喀斯特峰丛地貌，古朴的原生态植被，迷人的瀑潭秀水为景观特色，春花烂漫，迎春杜鹃别样红，夏树葱茏，碧峰飞瀑雾群山，秋叶漂丹，深秋红叶醉层林，冬林映雪，玉树琼花披银妆，四季有景。红军文化、三国文化、蜀汉文化、米仓古道文化等历史文化底蕴异常深厚，巴山游击队纪念馆、李先念骨灰撒播区被列为全国红色旅游经典景区。 红叶是光雾山景区的一大独特生态景观和靓丽名片，有“红叶甲天下”之美誉。可观赏面积达680平方公里，是亚洲最大的红叶观赏区，被誉为“亚洲最长的天然红地毯”。红叶景观面积之大、色彩之丰、资源之富、场面之盛、品位之高和观赏期之长为国之仅有，世所罕见。“巴山一夜风，木叶映天红。色比桃花艳，秋如春意浓。”光雾山红叶倾倒了无数游人，每年有10多万国内外游客前往光雾山景区观赏红叶。我们的大家庭：我们，一直在路上：马叉，无处不在：一、计划行程D1：9月27日，深圳—成都D2

谢谢大家支持。 贡嘎地区徒步和登山注意事项 贡嘎雪山位于甘孜藏族自治州泸定、康定、九龙三县境内，是四川第一高山，主峰海拔7556米，被誉为“蜀山之王”。以贡嘎山为中心，贡嘎主峰周围林立着145座海拔5000米以上的冰峰，形成了群峰簇拥、雪山相接的宏伟景象。贡嘎山是国际上享有盛名的高山探险和登山圣地，但贡嘎山也是最难以征服的极高山，其登顶难度远远大于珠穆朗玛峰。据统计：到目前为止，仅有24人成功登顶，却有37人在攀登中和登顶后遇难，这其中包括14名外国人。登山死亡率远远超过珠峰的14%和K2峰的30%。 随着《中国国家地理杂志》的推介，贡嘎从深藏闺中变为天下驴子所共知，每年来贡嘎徒步的人络绎不绝，只为一睹贡嘎的风采。 贡嘎山地区的气候受海拔高度的影响较大，气温随海拔升高而降低，而降水量随海拔升高而增大。贡嘎转山线路几乎全程都在海拔3000米以上，最高的日乌且垭口高达4900米.贡嘎地区的气候多变。每年6—10月为雨季，11月至翌年5月为旱季。年降水量800-900毫米，多集中在7、8、9三月。夏季云量大，日温差也大，在海拔6000米以上有时气温可达-20°C。旱季里天气晴朗，比同纬度其他地区还要温和，一年里气温最高的是4、5月份。 贡嘎徒步难度如何？个人能力不同，线路不同，后勤保障不同，天气条件不同，答案也有所不同。拿今年国庆节为例，因为连续几天大雪，很多队伍准备不足，使贡嘎成为户外事故的重灾区。那玛峰没有一人登顶，贡嘎徒步穿越的队伍很多在子梅垭口就打道回府了，而从老榆林穿日乌且垭口的队伍最惨，迷路，失温，半夜赶路，饥寒交迫，溃不成军的比比皆是，很多成都的户外俱乐部被投诉。其中一人脱离队伍，家属求救，赔了14600元；还有一女驴路上失温晕倒，被好心的马夫救活。而发生在我们身边未经证实的消息是：一猛驴在队友下撤的情况下坚持孤身一人上那玛峰C1营地，经过我们营地的时候还买了我们队员一个炉头。几天没有出山，他的家属找当地人上山寻找，最后发现死在贡嘎大本营的帐篷中。。。 我们不可以轻视任何一座雪山，更何况是死亡率最高的蜀山之王——贡嘎！一、贡嘎徒步注意事项（一）线路的选择1、最简单的线路：上木居——子梅垭口——贡嘎寺——草科，3天 适合没有多少户外经验又想一睹贡嘎风采的新驴。可以上木居坐车到子梅垭口，子梅垭口徒步到贡嘎寺，贡嘎寺再徒步到草科界碑。走不动的时候可以坐车、骑马，自己实际徒步的时间很少。 这条线路只有一个难点，那就是在海拔4539米的子梅垭口露营，很多人晚上会有高原反应，特别是初上高原的人。不过，实在忍受不了，可以下撤到海拔3700米的上木居或海拔3470米的上子梅村。2、准线路：老榆林——日乌且垭口——贡嘎寺——子梅垭口——上木居，5天 这条徒步线路算是贡嘎地区最准的徒步线路了，难度较大，如果自己负重则难度更大，如果遇到恶劣天气则存在不确定风险，适合有丰富的经验的驴友或跟随有实力的俱乐部。 主要难点：翻越日乌且垭口，子梅垭口露营。3、贡嘎环线：牛背山——雅哈垭口——子梅垭口——贡嘎寺——贡嘎大本营——贡嘎寺——玉龙西垭口，8天 这是一条以贡嘎为核心的环线，几乎把所有贡嘎观景点一网打尽，徒步和坐车相结合，适合对贡嘎情有独钟的驴友和摄影发烧友。这条线路所需时间较长，灵活性较大，可以随意组合。主要难点是子梅垭口露营，贡嘎寺到贡嘎大本营徒步和翻越玉龙西垭口。（二）户外装备 即使是自己负重，贡嘎徒步的装备也要按最坏的天气条件来准备。1、个人装备 大背包及防雨罩或驮包、随身小包、帐篷、睡袋（-15度）、防潮垫、头灯、羽绒服、冲锋衣、冲锋裤、防水高帮登山鞋、雪套、抓绒上衣、抓绒裤、保暖内衣、袜子5双（其中羊毛袜一双以上）、防水手套、保温水壶、墨镜、遮阳帽、个人餐具、洗漱用品，防晒护肤用品等。1）睡袋舒适温—15，不够的可以带两个睡袋；2）注意防寒，衣服多带，羽绒服、抓绒、保暖衣、羊毛袜、毛线帽、抓绒手套，冲锋衣、快干内衣等；3）大包给马帮，最好配一个驮包或外罩，以免弄脏；4）高帮登山鞋，至少试穿三次以上，多带一双鞋垫和护舒宝，鞋子进水的时候可以保持干燥；5）带双登山杖、护膝、护踝，保护双脚；6）遮阳帽、太阳镜、头巾、30倍以上防晒霜，户外雨衣，防雨防晒；7）个人常用药品：感冒药、肠胃药、清火药、去痛片、消炎药、活络油等；8）头灯、备用电池、垃圾袋、充电器等；9）1升左右保温水壶、洗簌用品、个人餐具；10）头灯、手套、眼镜最好备份。2、公共装备 对讲机，GPS，地图，炊具，炉具，急救箱等。（三）后勤保障1、交通1）成都包车2）班车 到上木居可以坐成都——九龙的班车在沙德下，再包当地车去上木居；去老榆林可以坐班车到康定，再包当地车去老榆林；草科出来后可坐过路车回成都。3）当地包车 在沙德、上木居、玉龙西、上子梅村、下子梅村都可以找到当地的小面的和皮卡车，还有摩托车。2、沿途吃住 沿途酒店很多，川菜为主，吃住问不大，但节假日可能价格较贵，住房比较紧张一些。上木居、上子梅村、下子梅村、贡嘎寺都有民房可住但数量有限，藏民家有吃的但可供选择的很少，大多面条、青菜、鸡蛋酥油茶等。3、向导和马夫 藏民不太讲信用，向导和马匹最好在老榆林、上木居或玉龙西找好，半路租马会被宰得很惨！出发前最好把时间、线路、价格谈好，免得他们反悔。（四）联系电话1、成都新南门汽车站：028——85433609，854420462、成都四号工厂青年旅馆：028——86265770，成都中同仁路小通巷四号3、冷碛鑫隆饭店：135414795154、上木居登巴客栈：13990460621，135516943615、老榆林多吉大叔：0836——2830628，13320793499上述只是我所知道的部分相关电话，不对服务质量担保，责任自负。二、那玛峰攀登注意事项1、那玛峰虽然海拔不高，只有5588米，但目前登顶成功率并不高，所以不可小视。天气是主要原因，秋冬季节较好；2、C1之上需要使用路绳、高山靴、冰爪和冰镐等技术装备；3、如果是找四川登协或成都当地户外俱乐部租借技术装备，最好出发前试一下高山靴，因为各种品牌的码数准不一，一般比平时的鞋子大两码比较靠谱，因为大一点总比夹脚要好。4、如果对攀登线路不是非常熟悉，最好请有经验的当地协作，目前成都三人行户外、青蛙户外、徐老幺和蜀山探险都有组织那玛峰的攀登。([]

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.
