一夜火车，两个人稍显困顿，火车晚点，原本7点左右到站的，都七点半了也没有进站的趋势，于是我们开始了神智不清的各种推测：“难道这趟火车不停站而是选择到站自行跳车吗？”“啊，不是吧，空降？...”逛吃逛吃逛吃逛吃的我们终于到达嘉兴站！天空飘着蒙蒙细雨，钻进鼻腔的空气清透凉爽，南方的冷果然是有质感的，是一种近乎玻璃一样通透的湿凉。在火车站迷糊了一会决定打车去乌镇，司机大叔显得有点酷，不怎么讲话，没睡醒的我们也显得不是那么精神。打车的发票被留下来了，111元，尽管有点小贵，但~四十分钟左右终于来到了西栅游客服务中心！我们已经瞅到了乌镇的样子！于是属于北方汉子专有的吃惊出现了，南方的冬天还有这么多绿色哇，柳树竟然像是初春的样子耶，花儿明明就是含苞待放的状态嘛！！接着是一顿疯狂拍照，恨不得翻滚在绿色草地上！如果说南方的冬天如一位亭亭玉立的少女，那么北方的冬天完全就是一个聪明绝顶的老头了([]

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([]

历山奇峰壁立、沟谷纵横，中心区域地形复杂、人迹罕至，因此保持了完好的原始面貌，被国务院于1982年确定为国家级自然保护区。历山核心区面积7541.5公顷，这里有华北面积最大、保存最完整的原始森林，各种植物多达1400多种，各种乔木、灌木达560余种，其中有8种属国家二、三类保护植物。此外还有菌种类植物资源如猴头、灵芝、银耳、冬虫夏草等。另有药材资源麝香、菖蒲、黄岑、党参、人参、何首乌、当归、苍术、五味子、连壳、籽黄等220种，年供全国各地百万斤以上。良好的植被为各种野生动物提供了良好的栖息地，这里有野生动物330余种，占山西境内动物种类的80%以上。其中有有金钱豹、黑鹳、金雕等国家一级保护动物9种。二级保护动物29种。历山还有悠久的历史及丰富的人文景观，舜王坪因舜耕于历而得名。《史记》记载：“舜生于蒲阪（今永济市），渔于获泽（今阳城县），耕于历山。”坪顶有总面积4000亩的高山草原，山巅有舜王庙、南天门、斩龙台等胜景。历山的另一高峰皇姑曼则传说是舜王的妻子蛾皇生活过的地方。然而，最吸引我的是历山神秘的72混沟。户外界有“墨脱归来不言路，混沟归来不言沟”之说，可见混沟名气之响。混沟是指以皇姑曼为中心呈扇形分布的72条沟谷，1936年阎锡山的部队为修铁路而伐木进入混沟，结果断送几十人性命，更有甚者说是进去一个团，只出来一个连；2002年中央电视台【早安中国】栏目和太原龙网组织了历山探险活动，全国征集户外志愿者1000多人，最后选拔出10人。在有强大后援、直升机配备的情况下，以一人中途死亡而兵败历山！打开网络，敲出混沟两字，随便一搜就会搜出一堆各种各样的传说、消息...... 一、好事多磨上路难 5年？还是6年？说不清始自几年前，我就开始关注历山，默默的为穿越历山做着前期准备，梦想着有一天能走进历山，走进混沟，然而那时有关历山的信息很少，更别说攻略了，直到06年后，河南驴友多支队伍先后去历山，历山的攻略才多了一些，然而种种原因我的历山行却迟迟没能进行。历山地处偏僻、交通不便，虽说距石家庄直线距离仅仅几百公里，但要去一次仅路上就要花差不多两整天时间，而穿越混沟一般需要3天时间，因此去一次历山至少要5天时间，再加上混沟地势复杂，只有天气晴好时才能进入，时间上还要留有一定余地，考虑到来往路费较高、路程占用时间较长的原因，本着少花钱多走路的原则，我在穿越混沟的基础上又增加了穿越东、西峡和舜王坪的计划，这样一来去一次历山就需要七天以上的时间，只有黄金周大假才有可能成行。考虑到春节不适于穿混沟，唯有天高气爽、雨雾概率小的十、一是去历山的最佳选择了。去年十、一我曾做出了穿越历山的计划。我的计划是由东川开始穿越，首先穿越东峡，再步行或乘车于后文堂，找向导毕俊杰带路上皇姑曼、穿混沟，出后河后再乘车回西哄哄（或后文堂），再穿西峡上舜王坪，最终从下川踏上返程。如果有时间的话，返程还可以去沁河古村落一游。计划是不错（至少自我感觉不错），但最后时刻却因报名人员少于最低4人的出行要求而中止计划。今天十、一，我再次发出了历山行的召集贴。历山穿越示意（根据记忆绘制，可能有误） 10.1很快就要到了。27日晚最后确定人员，有的本来有意参加的驴友因这事那事去不成，还好有5人确定出行，看来今年历山之行黄不了啦。28日6点就去买票，不料30日不论是到晋城的2163还是到济源方向的Ｋ589或Ｋ183票都已出完，想换成太原方向的车也没有合适的车次，无奈，快8点时又跑了一趟火车站，想实在不行只能买1日的票了。意外的是这时2163倒有了30日的票。出了火车票，不料下午老马又打电话说单位30日下午有重要的事，2163可是中午1点多的车，他下午有事企不是去不成了？老马又说此事没最后定，让等一下他的消息。“30日不行1日出发行不？如行我就与其它人勾通一下，改一下车票，推迟一天出发”。推迟一天意味着计划就要压缩行程，但没有办法，因为老马是两个人，他若去不成我们就只剩3个人了，那就少于最少4个人的出行要求。29日上午去改车票，工作人员告知1日的车票已全部售完，无法改（原来火车票字是要占用正常的车票额度的）。电话联系老马商量怎么办，老马开口的第一句话就是“一个坏消息，我肯定去不成了，推迟到1日出发也去不成了，因为夫人身体欠佳”。头痛，真让人头痛，难道又要重蹈去年取消活动的复辙？可票已出，取消出行的话仅退票就要损失好几十元钱的，更重要的是会让铁心走混沟的老于、efun寒心。关健时候幸亏老朋友老席冲破千难万阻顶了上来，这才保证了最低的出行人数，不过老席很不厚道的要敲我的竹杠，“你得请我，我要是不去你们又去不成了”。“啊呸！想的美”。30日是国庆前的最后一天，是我们国庆出行的第一天。中午1点，我和老于、efun、老席会齐于火车站，滚滚人潮中我们终于上路了。此行的4个队员：前排左efun、右为笔者，后排左老于、右为老席列车习惯性的晚点（对此我们已习以为常），走出晋城车站时已是晚上9点35分，车晚了一个多小时。一般人去历山都选择走垣曲或沁水，我却特立独行的选择了走阳城，因为从地图上看，我们穿越的起点东川村虽说属于沁水，但离阳城更近一点。由晋城坐班车到阳城换班车到口河，再由口河包小面或三轮车翻一道小梁就是东川。这样走比从晋城坐班车到沁水然后包车到东川费用要低一些。不过最终这个计划没能完全实现，这是后话。夜色中的晋城火车站找个小旅馆住一晚，第二天一早乘6点10分的班车，7点25分抵达阳城。打听去口河的车，一位工作人员操着很浓重的地方口音对我说：“去口河？坐8点去李圪瘩的车，那车现在还没来，你去问下那边停的那辆黄壳车，问他李圪瘩的车还来不来”。“黄壳车”？我转了一圈儿也没看到什么黄色的车。再问那个工作人员，那人很热情的把我领到了一辆开往横河的车前，“这不就是黄壳的车么”。我这才明白他说的“黄壳”是“横河”，原来当地口音横、黄不分。李圪瘩的车没来，我们只能坐这辆去横河的车，到索泉岭再包车，从地图上看索泉岭到口河大约10多公里。班车驶在阳城的街道上 班车司机为我们联系了一辆小面。索泉岭（李圪瘩与横河公路的忿路处）下车，小面已等在路旁，司机开口就要150。好家伙，虽说没走过这段路，但我知道索泉岭到东川不过20来公里，撑破天也到不了30公里，哪值150？讨价还价，一番语言大战，僵持了20多分钟后那个司机同意100元把我们送到东川。我们坐上了车，他又说他没去过东川，要去“问问路”。这一问问又来了，他叫来的一个老乡对我们说“去东川的路断了，三轮车都过不去，更别说汽车了”。小面司机说：“东川是去不了了，这么着吧，减20，80，我把你们送到裴圪台”。在我印象里从口河拐进去没多远就是裴圪台，离东川远着呢，但为了赶时间，我实在不想再争来争去，又认为断路的地方不会是裴圪台村边，应该更靠里，所以同意了司机的条件，但要求他尽量往前送一送，送到车确实不能再走为止。车上路了，一路上上下下，大约10多公里时过了一个明显的岔路，是水泥的岔路，心中怀疑那就是去裴圪台的路，但又觉的司机是当地人，即使没去过东川也不可能不知道去裴圪台的路吧，怀疑就没有说出来。再行不远是一个不小的村子，名柴圪瘩。听到柴圪瘩三个字，我意识到路肯定是走错了，下车一问，果然错已过了去裴圪台的路口。小面在柴圪瘩村准备掉头 柴圪瘩村的一户民居车掉过头来，向刚才看到的岔路奔去。拐进岔沟不过两公里裴圪台已到，过裴圪台村不过一里水泥路已到尽头，司机说前边的路不能跑了。看看前边的路确实不强，我们只好下车。整包上路，边走边议论：此地距我们下班车的索泉岭不到15公里，这么近的地方作为当地人不可能不知道这条岔路。老席说这点路最多值50元，司机所做的一切（问路、跑错路等）都是在表演节目，我们被小小的涮了一把。唉，人在江湖飘，哪能不挨刀。水泥路的尽头众人在做出发前的准备 二、牛刀小试东峡路10点55分，我们沿着一条有无数车辙的三轮车路上路了。按我事先的计划，我们本来要在今天10点前后到达东川，再用大约4小时的时间穿越东峡，然后在天黑前赶到后文堂过夜并联系带我们穿混沟的向导。可现在快11点了，我们才刚离开裴圪台，这儿离东川还有约15里翻山路，按经验，15里山路至少要2小时时间，那今天我们还能按计划在天黑前赶到后文堂吗？现在看，悬。行走在通往东川的大路上 一路走在前边的efun 一路上行。这条路上有两个村子：前松甲、后松甲，前松甲人还多点，后松甲却仅剩两户人家，几乎被废弃，至于建于两村之间的松甲小学更是只有一间教室，并早已成了一座空房。过后松甲路拐进另一条沟里，脚下的路开始盘山而饶，路况越来越差，坡也越来越大，不过始终是贯通的，这点从路面上众多的新车辙可以看出来。完全不象“路断了，三轮车都过不去”的样子。被废弃的只有一间教室的松甲小学几被废弃的后松甲 拐过几个弯后是一山口，一辆三轮车正从对面开下来，看到眼前的路，看着缓缓下行的三轮车我们才明白这路小面确实是上不来，不过你明说路太差，车没法跑，只能送我们到裴圪台不就完了，干吗非要叫个老乡来演双簧，借它人之嘴说什么路断了呢？efun还是走在前边，老于和老席则在不远的后边边走边聊，好象有说不完的私房话。脚下是大大小小的乱石，我只顾埋头走路，两无暇旁顾。正走着，忽听后边的老席象发现新大陆似的喊着什么。走回去才发现路旁的崖壁下有两座坟茔。这种方式的墓葬还真不多见，若非其中一座坟茔外面垒砌的石墙坍塌，还真不知那是两座坟墓呢对面来了一辆三轮车后边的老席在看什么崖壁间的两座坟茔过山口路拐进另一条沟里，山坡上有古松，有房屋的废墟，左侧的沟中还有大片的梯田，显示过去曾有人在些居住、生活过。我感觉田间的小路能通到我们要去的垭口，然而又怕走错了路。算了，还是走大路吧，虽说饶远但保险。路边的一棵古松，其旁有房屋的废墟 接近垭口了，路旁的石是红的，脚下的土也是红的，efun捡到了一块煤渣，他怀疑红土下边有煤矿，老席则认为那煤是过往的车辆上掉下来的。应该是老席说的对吧。路的下边就是那片的梯田（后悔没有走小路，呵呵），已被废弃的梯田，梯田间也有废弃的石屋，看规模象是个住家。在这儿生活，水怎么解决？打井？走在红色的大道上 下边的梯田、房屋废墟 12点半，我们登上了垭口，这儿是阳城和沁水的界山，垭口处立有界碑，我们在此稍事休息，烟鬼老于坐在界碑上抽开了烟。这个老于，一屁股坐了两个县。下边的路是一路下行，路比想象的还好走，看样子用不了多长时间就能下到沟底，我们计划到了有水的地方吃午餐。过垭口不远有一平地，中间有一坟茔，坟前还戳着两个石塔，正在路旁休息的一老乡说那是当代一位县太爷的坟，这地方风水好啊。两县间的界碑 一屁股坐了两个县的老于 一位当代县太爷的坟茔 20分钟后我们已看到了沟底东川通东峡的公路，此时路的一边已有了水源，但大家都说进了东峡，找个山青水秀的地方再吃饭。弃大路走沟底，再行数分钟已上通东峡的水泥公路上。这么好的公路，莫非东峡已被开发？后边过来的一放牛的大嫂的话让我们放了心，“没有开发，只是修了一条路”。唉，不管多好的地方，开发就意味着被破坏，只要一开发就变味，这已成了规律，所以驴友最不喜欢的就是“被开发”。东峡路边的古塔路边的保护区责任牌，这样的牌子我们后来见过好几个走在“景区”公路上 公路走到头，两侧的山陡然收窄，东峡由此而始。东峡，北起沁水县下川乡东川村南，南至阳城县东哄哄村。全长10公里，其中核心地段长6.5公里，宽10至46米，是历山十四大景区之一。东峡谷深峡窄，两壁如削如切，谷中巨石累累、植被茂密，沟底溪水清澈、潭瀑相连，据说谷中有惊心石、黑龙潭、济公石等景观，还有三搂粗、号称全国最大杏树王的古树，更有抗日战争时期邓 小 平同志率部智勇走东峡，摆脱日寇围追堵截的故事。走进东峡东峡口的地貌现在我们脚下是石质河床，溪水从石上流过，将石切出一道深槽，形成潭瀑相连的景观，我们选择此处为我们午餐的地点，此时时间已是1点半了。兴奋让我们忘记了饥饿。各吃各的，谁也不肯替别人减负。人性啊，人性咋就这么差？咋都不肯助人为乐呢？雷锋同志在哪里？我的食品还是馕，只要不是冬季，我都是选择馕为中午的主食，这东西好啊，十天半月的坏不了，若是烙饼，夏季节令两天时间就会馊。我们开始午餐 一旁的小瀑从水潭对面拍午餐中的队友([]

白英琴单车朝圣----写在前面的话 不知道从什么时候起，我没有什么太大的欲望了，但并不是说就无欲无求了，弄的上纲上线跟了却尘缘了一样，那是不可能的，我对和尚没兴趣；只是觉得生活很简单，翻过来覆过去就那么点东西，实在是没劲。每日都这么周而复始的，你们不觉得无聊吗，但说回来吧，更像是食之无味弃之又可惜了，所以先活着，看看还有什么。 过于安份的人，是因为心里住着躁动野兽，活了二十几年了，一直都是搂着的，总觉得放不开，放开了怕大家受不了，当再次面对那些束缚的时候，我想说的是。。。去TMD。 想去那里不重要，重要的是这个过程，更重要的是这个决定。 最近有这么一段话流传着：不旅行的借口可以找一百个，比如护照不好用啊、证太难啊、英语不好啊、语言不通啊、学业为重啊、水土不服啊、没有旅伴啊、工作太忙啊、家人不放心啊、恋人反对啊、安全没保障啊、最近手紧啊、体力不支啊……但是旅行的借口只有一个：走！ 我想告诉自己或者你们的，就是在我们仅仅能有用的活着的这几十年里，想去做任何事情，别在给自己找理由，理由多了去了，牵绊多了去了，我们没太多时间等时机成熟，什么时机算可行，你去做了就是TMD可行了。 —— 说点狠俗的。 有些事情， 现在不做， 或许， 一辈子都不会做了。（以上写于2012.2.14）生活总是在我们毫无戒备的时候对我们劈头盖脸的一顿毒打，我们不能反抗，也无法反抗，我们唯一能做的事就是，挺胸抬头的看着它，让它打的不开心。时隔一个的月的时间，发生了点我曾经认为可以承受，当真的发生了自己身上又承受的苍白无力，慢慢的体会着自己内心对生活态度的变化，越发的认为我的绝定是对的，希望这个决定能带给我更多的变化，心里上的或者身体上的（甩掉点荤油总是好的），可能我活的过于感性了，现在变成一个感性的胖子，我觉得认识我的人都让我渲染的开心了，可自己却没真正的笑过，可能有点自大，不过不算过，今天又看上边的话，也许有人会认为年少轻狂吧，虽然不年少了，但这次请允许我再轻狂一回。 都说是末日 我说是天堂。 ------------------------------我来了拉萨，你在那里。我爱你们，我的兄弟。 2012年3月19日 天气 无限大风 下午出发的，实在是煎熬不住了，以为双城不回有多远，从不骑车的我，让这50公里给我上了一课，到双城时候已经8点多了，路上水被冻住，什么也喝不到，走到7点多我就把预备的压缩饼干吃的光了，那个时侯看路书上说一天能骑150公里，其实我看了是在骂娘的 ____________________ 时光冉冉。到双城已接近9点，没什么力气，这是在被窝里拍的。2012年3月20 扶余风婆婆就跟死了孩子一样，大风吹，大风吹，真骑不动了。刚刚骑出来没经验，忘记带补给，东北这种地广人稀的地方你是知道后果的，只能看见无垠的苞米地咆哮，你妹的。坐骑小白登场。 很有心情放水的时候也来一张第一次上这种路的时候，悄悄的告诉你 绝望了。一个人在路上最难打发的就是寂寞，而不是这寒冷。看到一次绝望一次，这个时候我还在想什么时候我能到拉萨 到了扶余就赖在这里不想走了，找了个小旅店，在众人看国宝的眼光中悄悄的藏到屋子里 收拾东西。2012年3月22日德惠 我记得有人说话，当你去实现梦想的时候所有人都会帮助你。出发不远就遇到俩位老者也从后面骑着车就朝我来了，一路与我同行，嘘寒问暖的，着大冷天真的很温暖，可惜的是当时太过激动，忘记留下照片做个回忆。 晚上终于汇合了德惠的老胖，还真胖，不过胖的很儒雅，我曾经很自卑我头很大，他出现以后，我的后半生充满的希望。回复 ValueSun 的帖子明天吧 传不上去了，不知道为什么。人生如戏，你不知道下一秒你在那里，别活的太认真了。 2012年3月24日 在德惠休息了一天等胖子准备下，今天才出发。 早上这里的雪下的很大，其实根本就不能走的，别说骑车开车都费劲，但这心等不了了，还是走了。 暴雪的恶劣程度我不想再描述了，如图。总之正常人都要崩溃，而我瞬间正常了。 零度左右的空气让落下的大雪变成了冰水泥巴的混合物，过往的车辆有点人性的还ui走快车道，没人性的就直接迸溅到我们身上，每次我都会伸出中指对准他们的倒车镜，浑身上下没有一点干的地方，又冷有潮，也记不清多冷，多远，多累了，像噩梦一样在长春醒来。德惠的老胖2012年3月25日 公主岭连续扎胎4次连续大风连续上坡什么都不想说。补胎休息中。 2012年3月26日 四平从前不知道计划，后来学会计划，再后来被生活打乱计划，再后来计划着打乱生活 一天持续的大风，无限的上坡，50公里的四平天就黑了，胖子也挂了，甘闹了，我对东北的厌恶已经从肉体上升到精神，骑车东北那天我要对着北方磕一个。 第二天去看了个儿时的老友，算是这个城市给我的唯一安慰。胖子晚上家里突然有事回去了，我这盼了一路的伴也没了。 2012年3月28日 开原袜子军团一路无聊的骑行，突然发现这个大学，那些年亲的面孔在操场上流动，突然有些凌乱想到自己这十年。好像大喊一声 “青春”却像失声了一样变成一抹微笑，我闭上眼睛，张开双臂一路滑行，一路飙泪。开原的旅店是眼下路上遇见最贵的地方，在城市里跑了几公里最后才弄了个70大洋的。不过条件很好。2012年3月29日 铁岭第十天才到这里，真的有点大意了天气的威力。今天又是大风让我不在急躁，反而淡定了许多，吹去吧，你吹我就不骑。我懒的拍照 见谅。2012年3月30日一路没什么风景，到沈阳遇到一位老者，很热情的跟我聊了一阵子，我也没敢说我去拉萨 - - 忙完了许多事情天已经黑了，其实在北方这地方，我这一身装备行头想找个旅店还是有点挑战的多数时间是旅店在挑我，不是我在挑旅店，今天很幸运遇到了一对年轻的小夫妻店，老板娘还很卡哇伊 ：）看我是骑行的人，略显激动的在我身旁蹦跶很久，还冲了杯咖啡给我。2012年3月31日 辽中旅店的隔音不是很好，早上起来的很晚了，也是骑够了，东北，这季风我就不说没风才奇怪。2012年4月1日 愚人 锦州又遇锦州，古人已不在。今天的吃饭的地方是最让我崩溃了刚进城就找了个吃饭的地儿，服务员问我吃什么？我示意了一下别人手中的菜单。她说等下，哦，你吃什么？我：给我菜单。她：你吃什么？ （此处已经石化，她太坚强了，完全无视我啊）我：麻婆豆腐，米饭大她像后厨喊了菜。十分钟后........她又来了：你吃什么？你妹啊。我又说了一边，等了许久终于上来了。然后她问了我一句：你是不是的吃饭啊？我真恨不的一勺子拍他脸上。回复 Tony_烟波 的帖子呵呵 是的 我都没信心传了 还有2个月那。。。2012年4月2日 海滨兴城终于TMD能看见海了，一路无风，我大爱啊估计风婆婆来例假了 我把车子停在沙滩上，想来把面朝大海，还没站稳就来了三个人，一聊也都是哈尔滨的老乡还都是骑车的，清明来这里祭祖的。路上遇见老乡不容易，聊了很久忘记了上路了，想走的天都黑了，上车就扎胎了，路灯很暗这个胎换的很艰辛。2012年4月3日 绥中目的地是山海关，可是风婆婆又来了，出发这半个月就昨天一点风都没有，我现在十分怀疑她昨天来了例假。她太贱了，我连续40公里拐了3个90度的弯，她还能迎着我吹，必须顶风，非让我觉得这是超自然现象，我平时也挺积德行善啊？快出了东北风景变了 心情不一样了。这个照片可拍的很不容易 )([]
高湖喷水40分钟动漫
游良洁早已不记得上一次写游记是何时了，因为懒因为没有文字功底因为麻烦因为一切。。。这次出发之前就决定了无论如何要写，多年后以便翻看。我不会华丽的润色，只有直白的叙事，图片也是原图，未加修饰，所以各位就凑合着看吧。 一年里，假期，是我日夜期盼的日子。用一段短暂自由的时光进行一次异地或是异域的旅行，到陌生的环境去体验新的生活，经历更多以认识更好的自己。崔健在“假行僧”里说，“我要从南走到北，我还要从白走到黑，我要人们看到我但不知道我是谁”。今年继续西行，再次进藏，旨在阿里。阿里转山，说实话，我对自己很没把握，体力和意志早已被长期的城市生活消磨殆尽，可是我，想去。拜此次出行所赐，结识了一帮损友，茉莉和无泪费心做好了路书，我们明目张胆的享受，嘻嘻。。。初见时的拘束，离别时的拥抱和泪水，伴随着欢笑和喜悦，真实的风景真实的自己和他人，只有经历过才能成为回忆。远游异乡，一路上吃过糌粑，啃过羊肉，饮过酥油茶，穿过荒凉藏北，曾在冈仁波齐经历恶劣的气候，也曾触摸过古格历史的沧桑。八千里路云和月，我们一起看过美丽的风景，流连于每一个美妙的措畔，迷失在路上短暂的光阴里。旅行的美妙，不在于我们去到了哪些名胜古迹，而是能有一段飘泊的时间，随心所欲的到处走走，无所事事的发呆，或是在小巷子里迷路，看看当地居民为什么事而幸福快乐，让我们从一个自己呆腻了的地方，到一个别人呆腻了的地方，离开熟悉的环境去探索陌生的风景。西藏，是一个梦，我们既是逐梦人，也是造梦者。带着新鲜的记忆，且让我用普通的相机和笨拙的手法，粗糙但真实的记录下其中的一些片段，让朋友们透过我的眼睛看我看过的风景，也为了我忘却的纪念。 和伙伴们约好了7月12日拉萨出发，至于怎么到拉萨，大家就各显神通了，我早了几天到拉萨，混迹拉萨街头，因为之前就到过西藏，所以这几天过得格外颓废，不是在茶馆里喝甜茶，就是在书店里懒散的写下几张明信片或是早起跟着人潮涌动的转经队伍围着布达拉宫转动经筒，多少个晨昏，我坐在大昭寺门前的台阶上，看着那些虔诚的身影，聆听他们的身体和大地碰撞的声音 拉萨之于藏民来说就如同麦加之于伊斯兰教一样，是朝圣者们的终极目的地。拉萨那作为圣城的浓重的宗教气息，朝圣者们围着布达拉宫围着大昭寺转经，磕着数量惊人的长头，经年累月，寒暑往来，虔诚不改。大昭寺门前的青石板经无数人的匍匐，早已被磨得光滑。而那些来自青海云南四川的虔诚信徒们，他们带上家里的所有来到这里，穷尽毕生所有奉献给菩萨，以求得到来世的解脱和幸福。拉萨就是这么一座奇怪的城市，至今依然如此奇怪，世俗与神圣搅在一起，美丽与丑陋搅在一起，你只有无数的新奇与诧异，它有时会让你喘不过气来，有时又会让你屏住呼吸。 7月9日，西藏博物馆，如同内地的其他博物馆一样，馆内一样收藏了许多的石器和陶瓷制品，关于这些我就不再详加赘述，这里是西藏，我就捡些和西藏有关的说说好了。这颗金印是康熙五十二年时册封五世达赖罗桑益西为“臣额尔德尼”时所赐之金印。五世达赖对于当时的政局稳定起到了很大的作用，他坚持和睦团结，，人们都称他为“伟大的五世”。早在很久之前，藏传佛教就随着当时吐蕃的军事，政治的极大扩张而兴盛起来了，吐蕃的赞普让家中的长子出家为僧以示对佛教的尊崇，更让佛教徒参与政事，以至于之后西藏形成了政教合一的政治格局，这才有了六世达赖仓央嘉措的悲剧。那个被政治牺牲的年轻的生命和他那小心翼翼的无处安放的爱情。贝叶经，原产于印度，巴基斯坦，克什米尔等地，是用金汁或是银汁书写在一种叫作贝加罗树叶上的珍贵的佛教经典。由于战争，许多的经书都遭到了毁坏，而西藏由于兴佛而引进了很多的佛教经典，当然也包括了贝叶经，因此避过战乱而得以保存。所以现在是贝叶经保存最多的地方，贝叶经存于西藏的布达拉宫，博物馆和哲蚌寺。这个面具是跳藏戏时所佩戴的格萨尔王面具。<格萨尔王传>是一部藏族长篇英雄史诗，藏族的民间文学巨著。它讲述了格萨尔王一生为藏民降妖伏魔，除暴安良，南征北战，统一了各个部落，大到老人小到孩童多少都知道一些格萨尔王的故事，现在在那曲的一些茶馆里仍然还有着民间艺人们在唱着格萨尔史诗，每一个艺人们所知道的有关格萨尔的故事都不一样，每一个老人们也都有自己喜欢的说唱艺人。 唐卡，意为可移动的佛像，藏族人民对佛教的尊崇是我们无法想象的，由于早期游牧民族的特殊性，他们不可能守着一片草地从春吃到冬，当草场没草时他们就会拆下帐篷，赶着牛羊去寻找下一块水草丰美的住所，周而复始，这样就导致了他们不可能每到一个地方就建一座寺庙来崇拜，于是他们就把佛像画在了布上，这样当他们迁徙时就可以把佛像卷起来带走，这样无论走到哪里都不会影响藏民的礼佛。唐卡上的颜色来自于各种珍贵的宝石，蓝色的蓝松石，绿色的绿松石，黄色的黄金，白色的珍珠，也正是因为这些名贵的石头，再加上制作唐卡时的繁复与费时，所以唐卡的价格是昂贵的。画匠们将那些名贵的石头磨成细细的粉末，再加上牛胆等物质，按照一定的配比配制而成，永不褪色。通常唐卡的绘制，画匠们将画板的顶端牵一根绳悬挂于屋顶，自己则盘腿坐在低矮的凳子上，画板的下沿搁在自己盘起的双腿上，画底稿，一层一层的着色，勾线，最后点上佛的眼睛，画匠们说，最初师傅会自己亲自给佛像点上眼睛，只有当徒弟们的技法十分纯熟了，师傅才会放心让徒弟们独自完成最后的步骤。今晚记流水账。。。7月9日，10日，11日伙伴们的陆续抵达，我结束了独自游荡的日子，这几天我们在拉萨的街头厮混中彼此熟悉，从网络的想象到生活的真实。相约清晨去药王山拍布达拉宫的日出，清早的西藏寒冷异常，风呼呼的吹，到得太早，药王山的小门要到7点才开，我们几个徘徊在山脚下，找寻着避风的所在，徒劳无功。开门的人姗姗来迟，赶紧爬上去各自占据了有利地形，又在寒风中等待。。。唉，这个早上算是白来了，没有日出，只有寒风，冷。我放弃了，下到门口收钱的师傅的小房子里避风，门口的师傅很乐意我帮他看看大门，嘻嘻。。。半小时后，伙伴们也放弃了，找了一茶馆，吃一顿藏式的早餐，酥油茶加藏面，说实话，藏面真是有够难吃的，面条很粗，由于高原气压的缘故，面条很难被煮透煮软，咬起来有点硬，面汤倒是很不错呢，好喝。早餐之后，秋，无泪和我去布宫帮别的队友排队拿布达拉宫的预约券，上布达拉宫需要提前一天拿身份证到布宫的侧门领取预约券，第二天再凭着预约券上预约的时间到布宫参观。娃娃和开水则回去与球会合办理尼泊尔的证，各自行动。感谢无泪下午陪我去办理那麻烦的边防证日出前的布宫，漆黑一片，达赖不在，到底谁在里边住呢？住在这里该是多少喇嘛的愿望啊？好奇啊，实在是好奇难吃的藏面，好喝的面汤，还行的酥油茶今晚记流水账。。。7月9日，10日11日伙伴们陆续抵达，我结束独自游荡的日子，这几天我们在拉萨的街头厮混中彼此熟悉，从网络的想象到生活的真实。10日，相约去拍药王山的日出，清晨的西藏寒冷异常，风呼呼的吹，药王山的小门要到7点才开，到得太早，我们徘徊在山脚下，找寻避风的所在，徒劳无功。开门的人终于姗姗来迟，赶紧爬上去，各自占据有利地形，摆开架势，之后又是无尽的等待。唉，这天算是白来了，没有日出，只有寒风，冷。我放弃了，下到山下的买票小屋去避风，顺便再帮看门的师傅收收门票，嘻嘻。。。半小时后，伙伴们也放弃了，寻一茶馆，吃一顿藏式的早餐，酥油茶加藏面。说实话，那藏面真是有够难吃的，面条很粗，由于高原气压的缘故，面条很难被煮透煮软，咬起来有点硬硬的，面条不咋地，面汤倒还不错，好喝。早餐之后，秋，无泪和我去布宫排队帮队友拿布宫的预约券，上布宫需要提前一天拿身份证到布宫的侧门领取预约券，第二天再凭预约券到布宫购票参观。娃娃和开水则回去和球会合去办理尼泊尔的证，各自行动。感谢无泪下午陪我去办理边防证没有日出的日出前的布宫，漆黑一片。达赖不在，是谁住在里面呢？住在这里该是多少喇嘛的愿望啊？好奇啊，实在是好奇！！难吃的藏面，好喝的面汤，还行的酥油茶12日要开始阿里之行了，我是否该先把我们的线路报告一下呢？此次的线路是茉莉姐姐和无泪费尽心思做出来的，茉莉姐姐和无泪弄好一切琐碎，我们只管享受，(*^__^*) 嘻嘻…… 那我就先把路书贴出来好了，此次反走阿里，纳木错进，日喀则出，很特别呢DAY1：拉萨——纳木措——班戈DAY2：班戈——尼玛DAY3：尼玛——文布北村——文布南村DAY4：文布南村——措勤DAY5：措勤——帕江——仁多DAY6：仁多——亚热——普兰DAY7：普兰——塔钦，转山第一天DAY8：转山第二天DAY9：塔钦——扎达DAY10：扎达——仲巴——萨嘎DAY11：萨嘎——吉隆DAY12：吉隆——老定日DAY13：老定日——珠峰DAY14：珠峰——日喀则DAY15：日喀则——拉萨第二天我们本来定的是到文布南村的，后来因为我们在辽阔的草原里迷路了，天色又太晚，我们只好又返回到中午路过的县城尼玛，双湖的行程也因路况不妙而遗憾的放弃了。西行阿里，走在朝圣的路上，不安，兴奋与紧张，许多的地方仍是无人区，既无公路也无食宿，人类的足迹尚未踏足这片土地。那是生命的禁区，它拒绝了人类生命的呈现。可是，野生动物却是阿里草原上最为自由的精灵，它们肆意的奔跑在草原上，与风与云与草做伴。阿里恶劣的气候，清贫的生活，却因信仰的强大力量而丰富，人们虔诚的转山，令人动容。当然还有那一路上的各种措，纳木措，色林措，扎日南木措，当惹雍错，玛旁雍错。。。都是阿里的措，我们只能一措再措，将措就措。阿里的山，阿里的云，阿里的风，阿里的阿里，就让山林原野收留我们的梦想，带我们去远方。7月12日出发喽！一行11人，3辆车。在去往班戈的路上，路过一个小村子，当地的村民正在过一个叫”望果节“的节日，据我们的藏族师傅说，这个节日没有固定的日子，是根据青稞的成熟时间来定的，在青稞成熟之前，人们用这种方式以祈求粮食的丰收。纳木措是我们遇到的第一个措，兴奋自是无需言表。纳木措与羊卓雍错，玛旁雍错并称为西藏的三大圣湖。纳木措湖面海拨4800米，湖水清澈，它的形成和发育受地质构造控制，是经由喜马拉雅凹陷而成，现今湖水仍在不断的退缩，至今湖周围留有曾经的古湖岸线。下车就是一通狂拍，快门咔咔的响。因为反走阿里，我们来到的不是通常游客去的那一片湖畔，那里满满的全是游人，人头攒动，满满的全是商业。这一片湖畔，除了我们，没有别人。大家在湖边拗着各种造型，跳跃的，武打的，文艺的。。。总之就是怎么疯狂怎么来 自拍是必须滴，拗造型也是要滴 7月13日，班戈——尼玛 今天我们真正的进入藏北草原，都知道阿里的野生动物多，可真正看到时还是难掩激动！在电视上书籍上听到很多关于藏羚羊的话语，可那都很遥远，初见在原野上悠闲吃草的藏羚羊，哇！那个激动啊！嘴里叫着“师傅师傅，快停车快停车！”一边急急的摇下车窗，拿起相机就拍，可那精灵也实在警觉，我们还在远远的，它就已经被吓跑了藏北高原，荒无人烟，平均海拔都在5000以上，严酷的环境，恶劣的气候，是人类生命的禁区，却是野生动物们的天堂。因为这些可爱的生灵，阿里不是寂静无声的荒原，它充满了生命的律动。曾见识过新疆大地无边无尽的荒野戈壁，那个无助让人绝望，满眼尽是黄色的沙，没有水没有草，天上没有飞鸟，地上没有走兽，怎么远望，看到的都和脚下的一样，茫茫一片。与新疆的茫茫戈壁不同，阿里的天地是那样的宽广，生命是那样的鲜活。藏野驴，藏羚羊，野牦牛，旱獭，野兔。。。在无尽的草原，艰难的生存者，每一个渺小的生命都充满了生的渴望。这也许就是阿里的美之所在吧！ 有一个措，是色林措吗？还是措愕？？不知道，就连我们的藏族师傅都吃不准，不管了，反正是阿里的措 往阿里没有路，因为处处都是路，只要你愿意，车怎么开都行。所谓的路，不过是车轮在石头上压出的印痕而已。一路上，这样的情景不断的被重复，仿佛你真的在天堂，又似乎踏上了火星远处倾盆大雨，我们这儿却是阳光普照 措措措，今天的第二个措，唉，还是不知道名字 午餐喽，阿里，别说是餐厅了，能看到人就不错了，通常我们在茫茫草原上走一天都看不到人，这为我们接下来的迷路带来了大麻烦。出发之前，超市的大采购，就是我们每天的午餐厨房，要什么有什么，要什么没什么;P 没有餐厅，满草原随便坐，包场用餐。席地而坐，胡乱的吃，开心的说笑，糌粑配咸菜也一样美味 荒凉，只有云团在飞 白天方便来方便去，晚上我们可就不方便喽。完蛋了，迷路啦！！！！！原定今天的目的地是要到达文布南村的，120公里的路程，出发之前，师傅说4,5个小时能到了。到了天黑，居然还没看到哪怕一点点的村庄的影子。要知道，西藏的天可是要到晚上10点才会黑呢！不得不承认，我们迷路了，这回真的成了原野上的藏野驴了，迷失在旷野里。藏北高原，荒无人烟，由于没有路，也最易迷失方向，无边无际的无人区，若是走不出去，危险是显然的。想问路，对不起，不行。在这里，即便是你懂十种语言也无济于事，根本就没人让你问，城市里万能的手机也早就在进入草原后变成了一堆废铁。虽然我们带着食物和睡袋，可阿里夜晚的危险和寒冷是我们无法想象的。通过和师傅们协商，我们决定回到中午路过的一个叫尼玛的小县城。 夕阳下坠到了地平线之下，大地即将沉入黑暗，而我们还将被这片黑暗包围。天空上演着晚霞变幻莫测的剧目，时间因这昼夜的交替，每一秒都让人感动 远处的地平线下，放射出一片神秘的光，让人百思不得其解，阿里之美，只这一刻，足以打动。([]

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([]
