吴慧合热带丛林国家里，有着淳朴的民风、湛蓝的大海、神奇的建筑，这里是亚洲赤道部分，属于热带季风气候，终年高温多雨。对于吴哥窟的敬仰，琅勃拉邦的憧憬，越南越美的期待，在心里早已萌生冲动。但手指肌腱的断裂，日本友人“河源启一郎”自行车的丢失，让平静的生活，变得厄运连绵，导致计划无限延期。二次手术过后，为逃脱找个理由，背起包包、拿起相机，踏上征途，让所谓的霉运，紧跟远征的步伐，让它烟飞灰灭。而重新行走在路上，却是种勇气的坚持，因为我知道，明天即将不在年轻，也是自我内心激烈斗争后的抉择，也许我们可以失去所有，但对自由的信仰依旧无法改变。 而这次东南亚之行，有着里程碑式的意义，怀着忐忑不安的心情，踏上了第一次出境的道路。从南宁出境、西双版纳入境，横跨四个国家，也是对其文化、地理、历史等全方位的了解，增加的是眼界，丰富的是知识，也是对生命的一次逾越及挑战。通过Couchsurfing来行走，也是一种全新的旅行尝试，寻找免费住宿的Host，融入当地人的生活之中，由他们的指引，可以更加便捷地了解其城市精髓，芽庄的欢乐、西贡的喧嚣、高棉的微笑，都传递着湄公河两岸，最真实的生活写照。 有些事现在不做，一辈子就没有机会再做，等有钱了再去旅行，等有时间再去旅行，岁月就在等待中流逝，有了钱未必有时间，有了时间未必有钱，有了钱有了时间，也许已步入花之甲年，有了钱有了时间，又未必会有好身体，未来就是个未知数，人生苦短，何不趁着年轻、趁着没有家庭的责任的时候，然后收拾行装奔向远方，让世界留下自己的脚印，用相机定格瞬间，留给年迈后的子孙。 当我们不去旅行，我们就无法知道外面的世界，是如此丰富而精彩。世界是本书，它让我们快乐，也使我们悲伤，它让我们思考，也交我们成长，不旅行的人只看到其中的一页，不出去走走看看，你就会以为这就是世界。 而真正意义的旅行，是从一个人上路开始，因为只有独处的时候，才能面对内心纯粹的自己，方能了解生命的本真。而周围的人们，更多的是对独自旅行，抱以嗤之以鼻的态度，认为这是孤独且无趣的行为，他们更情愿扎堆申报旅行团。完全被传统思想所禁锢。而独自旅行，能给予精神上巨大的财富，锻炼独立精神、增长自身阅历、了解地理文化，它其实就是最完美的素质教育。人在旅途中，选择最便宜的交通方式，每到一座城市，为了节省旅宿费，背着大包小包，挨家挨户讨价还价，是对精神及肉体的双重考验，也伴随着酸甜苦辣，只因为热爱着旅行，有颗年轻而渴望自由的灵魂，年轻本无畏，只为花费最少的钱，去走遍万水千山。东南亚de行程中国： 南宁 西双版纳 昆明 重庆越南 ： 河内 顺化 会安 岘港 芽庄 大叻 美奈 西贡柬埔寨：金边 暹粒 上丁老挝：巴色 万象 琅勃拉邦我的微薄：奇丫的微博我的豆瓣：https//www.douban.com/people/zw187114229/我的人人：https//www.renren.com/746231855Facebook zw85683121@live.cn行走中国 100 多座城市的游记及攻略：https//forum.chinabeibao.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&;tid=35535 如果你喜欢可以加我为好友，我们一起分享旅途的开心，以及各个地方的旅途攻略。并借组8264户外网，有个支言片语的地方，能够结交更多志同道合的朋友。。。。 绿城南宁 P 3越南越美自助旅行攻略 p 6 河内，法式建筑里的迷宫 p 6顺化，皇城下的奥黛 p 9岘港，世界50个必去地之一 p 11 摩托车骑行岘港是段难忘的经历会安古城 p 22 精致的古城，五彩斑斓的灯笼 芽庄的沙发主 P 28 嗨到爆的芽庄四岛游 P30 这个四岛游强烈推荐，有图有真相美奈，美的无可奈何 P34童话般的大叻 P37 绿树蓝天非常漂亮的小山城 夜夜笙歌的西贡 p44柬埔寨自助游攻略 p48战争后的金边 p48世界奇迹，吴哥窟 p51吴哥之美 Angkor wat p62 吴哥的震撼是用语言无法表达得 巴戎寺，高棉的微笑 p68 这便是嚯嚯有名的高棉的微笑了古墓丽影，塔布戎寺 p71 这里有种穿越时空天人合一的力量巴肯神山，世界最美日落 p74女王宫变身寺高布思滨 p77静谧的琅勃拉邦 p82 这是个非常特别的小城，人们都信仰着佛教山城重庆 p88 重庆是个不错的山城，值得慢慢品味芽庄的海会安古城美丽的山城大叻美奈， 美的无可奈何夜夜笙歌的西贡世界奇迹，吴哥 Angkor wat古墓丽影，塔布戎寺巴肯神山，世界最美日落地之一静谧的琅勃拉邦 绿城南宁 关于南宁的记忆，依旧停留在五年以前，那些年青涩的我们，作为毕业旅行，而来到广西南宁。对这座边陲首府，印象颇为深刻，满城皆绿的植被，密密麻麻覆盖整座城市。漫步在街头巷尾，粗壮挺拔的大树比比皆是，在树荫的庇护下，成为避暑乘凉之地，“绿城”之名也因此得来。民族大道笔直的棕榈树、中山路美味可口的小吃、邕江边悠闲散步的人群，都依旧历历在目，仿佛就在昨天，不曾走远过。然而时间得奔腾，在岁月里却从未停歇过。 广西首府南宁，距离越南首都河内，仅仅三百公里路程，这次东南亚之行，所以把其作为起始点。而这趟旅程也从踏上，K5次列车开始，正式拉开序幕。本着节省路费，行迹天涯的目的，选择了最便宜的方式。然而旅途的刚刚开始，就已经痛苦难耐，硬座车厢内挤满着，各处务工者，把本就窄小的过道，塞着水泄不通，连臭气熏天的厕所口，也被挤得满满当当，有些无座者瞌睡难耐，便干脆沿着板凳，竖躺在脏兮兮的过道中。人数之众多，导致空气的不畅通，有种想立即逃脱的冲动，而十七个小时的煎熬，也是对精神耐力的最大考验。 翌日后的傍晚，强烈的热流，迎面而拂来，空气中夹杂着，南方特有的潮湿气味，这种闷热难耐的气候，导致汗腺无法排出，混身黏糊糊，让人难以适应，然而它的湿度、它的味道，却又那么亲切而熟悉。离开火车站，琨崽已等候多时，而因为证问、出境前的准备工作，在南宁借宿其宅下。 六天短暂的停留，生活过的简单而悠闲。清晨骑着自行车，兜风于城区之中，以这样的节奏，与它亲密接触。民族广场白鸽肆意飞舞，棕榈树星罗密布，邕江边锻炼的人影络绎不绝。再次回眸后的它，多了几分喧嚣，城市大兴土木后，灰尘扑鼻而来，摩托车堵满街道，让原有的印象荡然无存，人生若只如初见。 广艺依靠着小南湖，Kiki 和 Cici是这里表演系的学生，漫步于南湖畔边，聚集了数家，别有小资情调的酒吧、咖啡馆，用镜头把这里美丽，扑捉进相机，然后挥一挥衣袖，说声再见。中山路夜市，是南宁最热闹的小吃街，夜幕降临后，人群挤满街道，各式美食任君挑选，鱿鱼、生蚝、扇贝，甚至连鳄鱼都摆上了餐桌。 每天傍晚与蒋姐、毛哥吃晚饭，成了必修课程，酒桌上天马行空的乱侃，然而话锋一转，又跳转到了，那位日本友人丢车事件了。深夜百乐迪KTV里，依旧歌舞升天。看看手表，已经凌晨二时，似乎有高歌通宵，来日抱头死睡的架势。而一首“朋友”曲目后，让曾经记忆的碎片，不知不觉被唤醒了。清晨骑单车 南宁小南湖南宁 中山路 小吃一条街 雨过天晴后的城市，显得格外凉爽舒适，这样适宜的天气，强迫琨崽 和 舒杰一起打篮球，减去身体多余脂肪。挥汗如雨的健儿，透彻和煦的阳光，让自己有触碰篮球的欲望，想急停跳投、想肆意突破、想单打得分，没有什么时候，比现在更想去打篮球，只有大汗淋漓的释放，才能有最好的解脱。然而一切得一切，仅仅只是幻想，因为我清楚，现在的身体状态，是无法进行如此激烈的运动。([]

童宜蓁台湾行，用这句歌词作，一来是因为对这首歌太过熟悉，二来因为选择了冬季去台湾，而实际上我去台湾的真实动议是想去那里寻找中华文明及传统文化。去台湾的想法已经有了好几年了，自从台湾对大陆开放旅游之后，我就想着去那里看看，但一直想着啥时候放开了自由行再过去，但一等再等，台湾一直没有对徐州开放，实在是有点等不及了，于是，2015年2月4日，我终于登上了飞往宝岛的航班。 上午1010，徐州观音机场直达台北桃园机场的中华航空CI550航班准时起飞。 飞机航行在万米高空中，而我的心此刻已飞向了那个因一道海峡而相隔了60年、至今仍使用着繁体字的宝岛。 这么多年旅行，我最不喜欢乘坐的就是飞机，这种点对点的到达方式，在空中时的感觉实在是不好，所以，每次乘坐飞机，我都会要求坐在窗前，为的就是还能看看窗外那天空与云层的变幻，排解一下旅途的无趣。 尽管此时已心系台湾，但毕竟还是要有两个半小时的航程才能到达，心急也没用，那就静下心来好好欣赏舷窗外的风景吧。 去到海边观海，坐在飞机上观云。这云海和大海很有相似之处呢。 这云海翻滚的景象与海浪翻腾不是很像吗？ 椅背显示屏上的导航图明确出了此次航行的路线 飞机飞临台北上空，天气阴沉沉、雾蒙蒙，正是应了那首歌《冬季到台北来看雨》，台北，我们来了！ 整个航程2个半小时，1240，中华航空CI550航班准点在台北桃园机场平安降落。 台湾，到了！([]

黄人裕今年的最后一帖，索性将八月份的行程全部放在这儿吧，拖了太久了，之前写完两篇穿越帖后，脑子里好像对写帖没啥感觉了，过了这一段时间，心中也基本上有了大概的思绪，再加上最近结束了几门课程，可以腾出时间来赶在2013年结束前将图片和文字整理上来。此帖与大家分享的是今年暑假我完成贡嘎转山和亚泸线穿越之后的行程，两次穿越花的时间不到一个月，还有一个多月的时间便是这篇帖子的行程了。帖子分成两部分： 一、从云南经214、318、317、219国道搭车至拉萨。 二、单骑103.7元8天骑行青藏线拉萨至沱沱河（含纳木错）用布达拉宫作为这篇帖子的开始吧，它是终点，亦是起点。https//www.9ku.com/share/true_226495/singleplayer.swfps如不看回帖，可点击“只看该我，给予我精神上支持的朋友，同样要感谢，每次在路上看到你们的鼓励，心里都特感动！ 旅途中每一位帮助了我，包括对我微笑的人，无论你是过客，或是和我成为了朋友，我都和你们说谢谢，有了你们，我的旅途才精彩！ 感谢川西和西藏，不断的施予我，施予我以风景；施予我以感动；施予我以快乐；施予我以成长.... 从云南经214、318、317、109国道搭车至拉萨————终点亦是起点———— 来到拉萨前我以为这就是我的终点到了拉萨后我才发现它已经成了我的起点了我的终点已不知所踪 一年前我开始接触藏地，并深深为之着迷，时隔一年，再次踏入藏地，久违了。2012年8月16日，我怎能忘记这一天，那晚我的身体第一次与拉萨有了接触，眼角夺眶欲出的泪水充满的是怎样的一种情感啊，太多太多，感动、欣喜、艰苦....这一天是要来的，我知道，我会回来的，这回到拉萨的时候，我想哭，真想啊，可是哭不出来，没有泪水，也许是在2012.8.16就已经流完了吧。 因为今年川藏南线人太多，所以我改道上了川藏北线，所以才有了317、109国道的行程。可是就在我上了川藏北线的第二天，通麦大桥塌了，于是南线上的进藏者都涌上了北线，所以我又陷入了我不喜欢的“热闹”中，小小的郁闷了一下，不过北线的风景也还是很漂亮的。丽江：在宁蒗偶遇四个到泸沽湖的背包的，也是要回丽江，于是五人包车赶往丽江，每人50元，价格还是挺便宜的，到丽江的时候天已黑了，还好有个女孩在丽江住过一家很便宜的客栈，打电话过去，说是还有床位，我心想，终于马上可以洗澡洗衣服躺在床上睡觉了，亚泸线这几天天天下雨，我身上都快发霉了。 客栈价钱真便宜，第一天晚上床位比较紧张，于是我睡的过道上的床位，10块钱。第二天就换到房间里去了，好像是二十还是二十五块钱，这么便宜的客栈，真舍不得走。第二天洗了澡，洗了衣服，爽得不得了，客栈老板也挺好的。第二天下午我打算到古城里去转转，在去年我在路上听王哥和我讲起丽江，虽然没什么欲望，但来了还是去古城转转，天还下着细雨，我的伞落在屋角的龙布大哥家了，不过下的不大，没啥影响。丽江古城南门古城里的店面古城垂柳在古城瞎逛，石头上的城南旧事。不算广告吧，哈哈....我也不知道里面卖啥的古城里的川菜馆，我见过最多的菜馆非川菜馆莫属，开遍全国各地。古城建筑终于见到这传说中的一米阳光，在古城，艳遇似乎成了来这里的理由我瞎逛，一不小心在古城里找到了8264的旗帜，希望这旗帜像川菜馆一样挂遍全国各地古城酒吧神话酒吧，看上去很高端的样子转山转水转经筒我进一米阳光去看了一下，听到几个人在问服务员在这儿消费要多少钱，服务员说最小的那个桌子，一桌一千六百几来着，我马上闪出来。应该是“我愿化身石桥”，他这是木桥，有点不合适，嘿嘿....北京青年的拍摄酒吧，看过几集，就没再看了。古城外的大水车说来也挺巧，我在古城瞎逛的时候，遇见了在泸沽湖碰见的三个背包客。于是我们就一起逛古城，走到这家碟店时，我说敲敲鼓吧，不一会儿，雨下大了，于是我在碟店敲了几个小时的非洲鼓，主要是因为我比较喜欢敲，后面那小姑娘切歌和我们一起敲，走时在这儿买了一张碟。谁想？排着去。 逛完古城我带着三人到我住的客栈，，晚上他们在外面吹牛，我就不瞎掺合了，再说我也不是很喜欢，在房间里收拾东西，明天就准备离开丽江了。没什么留恋的，说实话，丽江古城与我而言，完全没有吸引力，我始终还是觉得这里浮躁多一些，而且古城里也没啥玩的，都是商店、酒吧。就那碟店还比较好玩。之前有朋友建议束河还不错，但天气一直不转好，想想还是走算了。就这样，在古城待的时间才半天，我就往香格里拉去了。 丽江的艳遇吸引了很多人，唯独没有吸引我，在丽江，我真的没有感觉的到有任何让我爱上这个地方的理由。很多人喜欢丽江，所以我就不再说太多了，到此为止吧，爱，不需要理由，不爱，也不需要理由。 搭车往香格里拉的途中是艰苦的，为什么呢？我哪儿是搭车，那天，天朗气清，我知道路上有很多人，但没想到有那么多人，还有一个什么学生组成的一个组织，好像有近百人呢，都在搭车，我遇见了几个，这么多人，不遇见都不行啊，他们告诉我，他们是到一个地方就去小学、敬老院....这些地方做好事，姑且划到公益旅行一类吧。他们要到虎跳峡，我心想这么多人，还是你们先走吧，我先走一段，结果这一走啊，就走了四十多公里，我自己都想不明白我怎么走了这么远。在路上歇的时候，都四点多钟了，我就伸手这么一拦，之前拦过很多次，不停啊。可是这次不一样，这次是停了，我心想老天还是眷顾我的，关键时刻给我以希望啊。司机师傅很爽快，我说搭车去香格里拉，立马让我上车了，上车后发现车上还搭了俩啊，司机师傅小两口在前面，人特好，途中我们停下歇的时候从车上拿吃的给藏族小朋友，和他们聊天发现两人很善良，在路上还看到了彩虹，漂亮极了，这是这一路上第三次看到彩虹了。到香格里拉的时候天还没黑，下车和司机师傅道谢后到了月光广场，让我意想不到的是，在这里竟又遇见了在泸沽湖遇见的那几个人，而且还有几个不认识的和他们一起，所以，接下来就一起在独克宗古城玩啦。在丽江前往香格里拉途中远眺被云雾遮挡的哈巴雪山这里好像是那啥长江第一弯来着，拍的角度不对，看不出来 香格里拉独克宗古城的月光广场，到这里时天刚开始黑，看到广场高处有一又高又大的转经筒，我想，这就是那传说中世界上最大的转经筒了吧，传说里面有上亿卷经书，不过官方数据好像没这么多世界上最大的转经筒，金黄色的经筒是独克宗古城的地月光广场上藏民们跳起了热情洋溢的锅庄，我一直想跳锅庄来着，可惜不会跳。锅庄是非常热情的舞蹈，配合藏族歌曲，跳起来很有感觉呢。这就是那最大的转经筒，在此又遇见了在泸沽湖和丽江碰到的几人。转经筒需一二十人合力才能转动，我转经筒三圈，完了入大佛寺上香祈福。相比大研古城，我更喜欢独克宗古城，虽然两座城是不同的民族，但很明显可以感觉到独克宗古城对当地文化的保护比大研古城好太多，在大研古城已经很难感受到纳西族的文化了，而独克宗古城虽然也与大研类似有很多酒吧和商铺，但其藏族文化却保存的很好，走在古城里的感觉就不一样，让人有留下来的冲动。与那几位遇见的背包客逛商铺时看到的天珠，这颗天珠38.9万，这还不是这家商铺里最贵的一颗。和他们去吃完东西在古城闲逛，独克宗古城里有很多外国人大叔请我们喝酒，所以就来到这家酒吧啦，大叔看起来年纪不小啊，一起玩的时候特嗨，这家酒吧是左边抽烟的太溢介绍来的，他是藏族人，认识这里的老板，那颗天珠的店铺老板也认识。这是我第一次进酒吧，虽然偶尔喜欢喝酒，但那都只是和朋友一起的时候。和这些来自天南海北的朋友一起喝酒，不问出处、不问名字，没有任何芥蒂，喝起来很开心。刚才一起吃饭的时候，与他们喝了一点白的，所以这里就没多喝，喝醉就不好了，开心就好了。对了，我还上去跳舞了，跳的可嗨了，哈哈....这是一家藏式酒吧，所以里面基本都是藏族人在酒吧闹到十二点多才离去，在广场附近搭帐篷睡下了。第二天醒的时候还早，有几辆旅游大巴刚好到广场，但游客都只是下车一两分钟拍下一两张照片之后就被导游叫上车了，每个人都有自己的旅行方式，我不能改变别人的方式，我只能改变自己，选择能让自己快乐的方式。他们是要去雨崩，而我是要进藏的，第二天花了十五元搭车到了奔子栏，晚上也是在那里扎的营，在奔子栏与一个路边的卖西瓜的果摊的藏族少年聊天聊了一个下午，挺有意思的，我还给他卖瓜呢。第一次拍星星，那晚奔子栏群星闪耀，银河划过长空，这是出发以来看到星星最多的夜晚了。这次我带了脚架，因去年在新都桥时星空像童话般美丽，于是今年我带着脚架准备在新都桥拍星星，但那几天天气不好，没有星星。不过在奔子栏总算派上用场了，可惜是第一次拍星星，技术太水了，相机也不是很给力，就给拍成这样了，下次还要再带上脚架出发。([]

侯嘉侑十一假期也结束了，从法国回来也办个多月了，还是没办法把这次旅行用文字记录下来，可能是本人比较懒惰吧，在此先立个帖子，没准儿是个大坑！还很有可能太监了，哈哈，大家不要骂人，首先还是要感谢一下这次的主办方Lafuma中国的大力赞助，还有这次为我们投票的8264论坛的兄弟姐妹们，是你们的支持让我们得以实现这个户外梦想——法国勃朗峰攀登之旅！！！先发两张照片本次活动全体队员的全家福第一座训练山——TETE BLANCHE ，海拔3429本次活动行程安排：9月13日：北京——阿布扎比——日内瓦——霞穆尼（BUS）9月14日：适应训练：到高山木屋（海拔）9月15日：适应训练：装备使用、冰川行走、攀登TETE BLANCHE（3429M）瑞士境内9月16日：适应训练：9月17日：返回霞慕尼休整（购物）9月18日：继续休整等待天气9月19日：攀登勃朗峰：乘坐小火车到达海拔2372米小火车站，攀登至古顿木屋（3817M）9月20日：古顿木屋（3817M）——勃朗峰登顶（4810M）——小火车站（2372M）——霞慕尼9月21日：退税\返程一、一路辗转、初到霞穆尼本次我们所乘坐的飞机为阿联酋阿提扎德航空公司的航班，经阿联酋第一大酋长国首府也是阿联酋首都阿布扎比转机前往日内瓦。说到阿联酋大家可能一下子就会想到的是迪拜，帆船酒店、迪拜塔、豪车、海岸等等；其实，阿联酋的全称是阿拉伯联合酋长国，简称阿联酋，阿布扎比酋长国是阿联酋第一大酋长国，阿布扎比是阿联酋的首都，同时也是阿布扎比酋长国的首府。阿布扎比的机场设施很完善，有很多国际大牌的奢侈品店，有免费的wifi网络，就是网速不快，还不太容易链接。我们在阿布扎比机场停留大概两小时，登上飞机继续前进，两段飞机上的餐点都还比较丰富，在飞往日内瓦的途中，机上的服务人员知道我们俩是来度蜜月的，还特意为我们制作了蜜月甜点和法国香槟。经过十几个小时的飞行，我们于当地时间14：35分到达瑞士日内瓦国际机场，取行李时出现了一个小插曲，大家的行李都取完了，只有摄影之友杂志“梓朕”的行李箱没有出现，后来到海关查询才知道行李被开箱检查了，因为他的装备实是太高端大气上档次了吧，有间谍或者特工的嫌疑，后面我会慢慢向大家介绍梓朕哥的秘密武器，一个乐观向上的画家、摄影师、媒体人，一路上给我们带来了很多欢笑。到机场迎接我们的是法国Lafuma和Petzl（攀索）的技术顾问；约运动员：Aymeric，一个从10岁就开始登山的牛人，也是我们本次“Lafuma叶伴我行勃朗峰”的总教练。从机场乘坐ALPYBUS旅游公司的BUS前往法国霞穆尼小镇，BUS司机是位漂亮的法国女士，路况很好，100公里的路程只需短短的一个小时时间。封闭式的高速公路修建在宽敞的山谷之中，蓝天白云、绿草如茵，半山腰散落着各式各样的砖木结构的房子，靠近公路旁的房子基本都有一大片田地，像一个个小小的农场一样，时不时头上还能看到几个滑翔伞从两旁的山上飞下来。转过一个比较大的弯，洁白的阿尔卑斯山出现在我们眼前，一路看着阿尔卑斯山的美景，不知不觉中就来到了著名的旅游度假圣地——Chamonix（霞慕尼）。入住HOTEL Alpina(阿尔卑斯酒店)，HOTEL ALPINA是一家有着悠久历史的三星级涉外旅游酒店，酒店大部分房间都能看到勃朗峰和南针峰，东南向的房间都有一个露天的小阳台，房间整洁，略显陈旧，全部都是实木家具和门窗。晚餐前还有点时间，大家相约到小镇上逛一逛，顺便找一家正宗的餐厅品尝一下法式大餐。Chamonix霞慕尼小镇因坐落于欧洲屋脊阿尔卑斯山最高峰——勃朗峰（4810M）脚下而享誉世界。1924年，第一届冬季奥林匹克运动会在这里举行，1786年，霞慕尼医生Paccard (帕卡德)及其脚夫Balmat (巴尔马特)首次登顶勃朗峰。从此后这里逐渐成为欧洲人最喜爱的登山滑雪圣地，这里有欧洲最高的缆车可直达勃朗峰观景台——南针峰。小镇上的观光车这个季节的游客不多，小镇两旁商店鳞次栉比，街道整洁干净，各种登山、滑雪、户外商店随处可见，这里汇聚了世界上个大顶尖户外品牌的专卖店，我戏称这里的户外店是只有你不知道，没有你看不到的！作为一群户外爱好者，我们的首选当然是个大户外品牌店了，这里的户外装备价格并不算便宜，不过还是要比国内低15%——30%左右的。 悠悠荡荡、走走停停，不知不觉天已经暗了下来，这里的商店大部分都是19：00停业，我们找到一家看上去不错的法式餐厅，这里的牛扒和海鲜都很不错，就是配菜的薯条有点粗大，有懂行的队友说这就是正宗的法式薯条 ，我怎么看怎么像油炸土豆块儿。这里和国内有6个小时的时差，晚餐后我们回到宾馆早早休息，明天就要进行高海拔适应性训练了。 二、整装待发、阿尔卑斯初体验HOTEL ALPINA 的早餐从7：00开始供应，今天我们要进行首日的适应性训练，大家都早早来到位于7楼的餐厅，一个霞穆尼小镇和阿尔卑斯山景观餐厅。天还有些暗，由于霞穆尼小镇地处山谷之中，太阳的朝晖已经开始一点点洒落在勃朗峰上，为洁白的雪山镀上一抹金黄，我们在靠窗的为止边吃边欣赏景色，大家不禁感慨，人生如此，夫复何求啊。这里的早餐种类不多，不过还算丰盛，而且味道都还不错，特别是新烘烤出来的各种面包，各式各样的果酱和火腿片，早餐的鸡蛋需要自己煮。我们把不需要带的装备寄存到酒店，这次活动的总教练Aymeric带着另外两个教练来了，一个是意大利籍的Hugues，我们都戏称他“渔歌”，Hugues同时也是一位资深的滑翔伞教练；瑞士籍的Elodie（艾乐迪），是瑞士一所大学的历史老师，Elodie是阿尔卑斯山为数不多的女高山向导之一。这边的商店大多在9：00到930开门，我们在Aymeric的带领下一起去镇上一家综合户外用品商店购买和租赁雪山攀登的装备，这个店我们昨天下午来过，营业面积两三千米，三层，基本所有的户外装备都可以在这里买到，这边租赁高山靴和冰爪的价格是一周125欧元，价格有点小贵。资深户外摄影师“凯伊”在凯伊哥的建议下我选购了一双La portiva Batura2.0 GTX高山靴和一GRYAEL G14全齿冰爪；媳妇儿选了一双La portiva EVO和一副Simond的行走爪。SIMOND的冰爪就是霞穆尼生产的，有一百多年的历史了，Aymeric很高兴的给我们介绍。这里登山靴的价格大概是国内的价的一半，Aymeric找到经理很给面子的给我们打了个九五折。这里的户外店店员专业知识都非常好，不单单是为了销售产品，还逐步给我们介绍这些装备的使用方法、注意事项和保养的知识，而且给我们介绍的店员还伸出大拇指说你们选的都是非常好的，非常专业的。Aymeric 交款退税，这里要说一下关于到霞穆尼的刷卡消费和退税，网上说的银联大部分商店都可以用是不靠谱的，在霞穆尼就没找到有能刷银联卡的地方，幸亏来之前换了足够的欧元和一张备用的万事达卡，不然可真就成了入宝山空手而归了，所以大家如果出行最好还是带着VISA或者万事达才靠谱。选择可以直接人民币还款的比较省事儿，直接按照当天的汇率结算，省去购汇还款的麻烦。摄影之友新媒体运营总监“梓朕”（左）和“皮带断了古进”关于退税，这边的规定是当日单笔消费超过175.01欧元就可以申请退税，店里的工作人员会为你填好退税单，只需出示护照就OK了，欧洲的退税办理分为两个不同的退税公司GLOBE BLUE PREMIETTAX GREE（环球蓝联）和EUTOTEFUND GTOUP（这个不知道怎么翻译，应该是个什么贸易组织之类的）。我个人觉得环球蓝联的比较方便，直接到海关出境处就可以退现金；EUTOTEFUND GTOUP的退税是需要退到信用卡里的，我们基本上回到国内不到半个月就都收到了退税，效率还是比较高的，虽然后来出境退税时出现了一个有意思的小插曲儿，这个留到后面再说。Aymeric（左）Hugues（右）今天是周六，在我们酒店门前的广场上有一个临时的集贸市场，基本上都是当地农场自产的农副产品，看了一下价格还是挺实惠的，不过我们就要去进行适应训练了，无暇光顾，只能匆匆而过，我们一行12个人加3个教练正好三辆车，三个教练又兼任了司机的工作，这边的汽车以两厢车和三厢旅行款为主，吉普车不多，三厢的轿车基本上看不到，车型不算新，但车况都不错，有不少经典的老款车型。驱车二十分钟左右，一路盘旋上升，我们来到缆车站停车场，在这里Aymeric给我们分配了这两天训练的路餐，已经快十二点了，今天我们要到达Refuge木屋，在停车场简单吃了点路餐，合影购票，缆车上的风景很漂亮，天气也很不错，这边有很多老外在玩儿山地车速降，感觉非常刺激，有一个专业的赛道，竟然还有妈妈带着十一二岁的小朋友玩儿这个，在国内可能有点不敢想象的。我们要乘坐两段缆车，缆车票是单次往返的，有效期一直到11月底，到达山脊上的缆车站，接下来我们要徒步上升大概五六百米去到Refuge木屋，距离大概七八公里的样子，前半部分路段都比较好走，最后一段碎石陡坡路段需要手脚并用了，第一天训练，大家的热情还是比较高的，一路上遇到很多从山上下来的登山爱好者，老人小孩儿都有，他们都会礼貌的和我们打招呼，我学会的第一个法语单词就是Bonjour（你好）。但是为了向欧洲人民普及中文，我都提前大声跟他们说你好，有部分人也会学着我的发音和我打招呼。整装待发下午四点，我们陆续到达Refuge木屋，阿尔卑斯山的登山环境很好，高山木屋的设施很齐备，有专门的鞋柜和存放柜，首先要脱下你的登山装备换上拖鞋，有专门放登山装备的塑料箱子和晾衣服的挂钩，一般不把除了随身的贵重物品之外的东西带到餐厅或宿舍。这里的物资全部是用直升飞机运送，阿尔卑斯山的高山木屋有着悠久的历史，对阿尔卑斯山的户外登山运动发展有着卓越的贡献，近似于公益性质，木屋里商品的价格也不是太贵，大部分可以通过网络和电话预定，高山木屋从9月底到第二年的4月大部分是关闭的。Refuge木屋正在进行改建，资金来自各行各业的捐赠，里面的工作人员有一部分是志愿者，我们将是今年最后一批使用Refuge木屋的登山者。小木屋的志愿者吃过晚饭我们早早回到宿舍开会，宿舍是两排二层铺位，能住24个人，因为现在登山的人不多，只有我们一队住在这个房间。在宿舍做了一个简短的总结，Aymetic问了一下大家对今天徒步的感受，是否有不适之类，并且告知我们未来几天的天气有可能会变的很糟，但大家的精神面貌都不错，可以说是信心满满，最后我们15个人分成三组：罗静、杨波、贺源、古进由Aymetic带队为第一组；凯伊、王冠、我和婷婷由Hugues带队为第二组；梓朕、花而、Angela、无痕由因Elodie带队为第三组。明天不用起的太早，大伙还躺在床上侃了会儿大山，房间有点小冷，不过休息的还都不错。 三、大雾来袭、全员登顶白头峰早上七点队友们陆续起床，感觉有点凉，室外被浓雾笼罩，变天了，能见度很低，餐厅提供的早餐还可以，有热牛奶、咖啡、红茶，配上面包果酱，昨天体力消耗不大，早上实在没什么胃口，简单吃了两片面包，这里的小木屋热水是收费的，2欧元1L。待大伙收拾好已经快九点了，山上的大雾没有消散的迹象，Aymetic告诉我们未来几天的天气可能都很糟糕。我们九点整准时出发，小木屋的旁边就是冰川，但我们要先经过一段碎石路段上到冰川上，距离大概五六百米。世界杂志“贺源”我的东北老乡我们到达冰川后开始结组，穿好冰爪，海拔较低的这一段冰川相对陡峭，这里的能见度只有100多米，不时出现一些冰裂缝，不过都不是很宽，一步就能跨过去，过了这段低海拔的冰川是就是雪坡了，坡度不大，行进的速度适中，几个教练都非常的专业，按照一定的频率和节奏缓步攀升，大概继续行进一小时左右到达一处有裸露岩石的避风地，我们在这里稍事休整，简单的补充一下高热食品和热水，继续前进。后面的路程大部分都是雪坡的行走，其中有一处较大的裂缝有一点点危险，山上的雾时聚时散，已经有早出发的登山者开始下山了，我们大概总共用了五六个小时登顶TETE BLANCHE（白头峰），海拔3429M，海拔上升将近700M，最后一段有三十米左右雪岩混合攀登。前两组基本上同时登顶，我们在背风处解决午餐的时候，第三组也顺利的登顶了，云雾渐渐减弱，山顶处的风比较大，我们随即下撤，下午三点多回到Refuge木屋，简单的收拾后都来到餐厅喝茶聊天。“梓朕”说他最后是用腰带动腿走下来的，惟妙惟肖的边说边跟我们演示，一度成为我们这次旅程的笑谈。而“花而”更是大声感叹：“Lafuma带我们玩儿真的”。 晚餐后照例还是一个小小的总结会：今天婷婷在冰岩混合攀登的路段脚崴了一下，决定放弃第二天的训练；梓朕、Agela和无痕身体不适也放弃了第二天的训练；Aymetic根据今天大家的表现又重新给我们从新进行了编组。Aymetic和Hugues带两组人继续按照计划攀登第二座适应训练山峰，剩下的由Elodie带领进行简单一点的适应性训练。明天很早就要起来，今天大家的体力消耗也比较大，都早早的休息了，据“凯伊”说我刚刚躺下说了一句话就睡过去了，看来还真是不轻松。四、风雪交加、雨雾相伴中完成测试训练三点半准时起床，“凯伊”有点感冒，今天参加训练的队友又少了一个，餐厅已经准备好早餐，已经有人一早出发了。我们吃过早餐，Aymetic和Hugues带领我们五名队员一早出发，Aymetic带杨波、罗静和皮带断了；Hugues带着我和王冠，室外漆黑一片，空气湿度很大，头灯的光亮只能照到前面的队友。今天前段的路程和昨天一样，过碎石坡、冰川、雪坡，天色渐亮，云层很高，有点黑云压顶的感觉，今天训练的山峰是在瑞士境内的Aiguille du Tour，海拔3542M，比昨天的略高，路程相对较短，但难度有所提升，特别是后段的冰岩混合的攀升，基本上都是70°以上的混合岩壁。 经过两个多小时的跋涉到达岔路，昨天的雾比较大，只能看到一串延伸的胶印，今天一眼就能看到这个大雪坡的顶端，50°左右的雪坡，顶部是一段雪岩结合的垭口，我和王冠的教练Hugues告诉我们翻过这个垭口就是瑞士境内了，我们会在垭口处休息。前面隐约能看到三五个登山者，由于坡度较大，我们只能做Z字形爬升，最不喜欢走的就是雪坡了，特别是有雾的时候，四周没有参照物，感觉就像一直在原地转悠，非常折磨人。这种雪坡对体力的消耗非常大，一脚下去雪已经快到膝盖了，高山靴上粘的雪让脚步愈加沉重，上面不时有雪滚下来，经过将近一个小时的努力，终于翻过了折磨人的大雪坡，上面一段几十米的冰岩混合有点小难度，王冠以前从没爬过这样的山，速度不快，对于不是经常户外的她来说非常不容易，但是她的意志力和耐力都很棒，很有登山的潜质。垭口上的云雾时聚时散，Aymetic告诉我们雨夹雪马上就要来了，不知道他是看了天气预报还是经验之谈，我们抓紧赶路，接下来是一段较缓的雪坡，山上的风越来越大，云雾被风吹散，已经能看到我们今天要登顶的Aiguille du Tour了，远远就能看到在雪岩混合附近的一条大冰裂缝。 走到跟前，冰裂缝最宽处大概七八米，窄的地方也有两三米，有一座一尺多宽的雪桥，这个雪桥还是有点危险的，我们都安全的通过了，虽然姿势各式各样，接下来到顶峰的是雪岩混合攀登，用了将近大半个小时左右，山顶的雾比较大，我和王冠在冰岩混合路段行进的比较慢，对于第一次接触冰岩混合攀登的王冠来说有点难，最后还是能够顺利登顶。在山顶拍照留念，山顶雾大风急，补充一点能量开始下撤，俗话说上山容易下山难，这段冰岩对我来说比较适合，因为平时都有经常攀岩，王冠开始有点害怕，克服了恐惧心理就好多了，我们顺利下撤到雪桥。速度虽然不快，但收获很大，特别是王冠童鞋。今天的训练没感觉特别累，我们下山的时候开始飘起了雪花，雪越下越大，在下山的路上遇到了进行简单体能训练的几位队友，等我们回到小木屋，这里的工人已经开始清理小木屋的物资了，所以今天中午只能吃自己携带的给养。一架小型直升机负责运送物资，有十几个工人在忙碌，我们整理好携带的物资和装备，开始在风雪中下撤，随着海拔逐渐下降，雪变成雨夹雪，由变成雨，浓雾依然和我们一路相伴，造的都挺狼狈的，我们乘坐缆车回到山下，在缆车站旁边的一个咖啡屋取暖，这个季节爬山的人不多，滑雪的季节也没到，咖啡屋里只有一个老人为我们服务，这里的红茶和咖啡都很不错。 率先登顶的第一组Aymetic和Hugues两个人一直在商量未来几天的天气，队友们各自对这两天的训练进行了总结，Aymetic告诉我们未来几天勃朗峰有暴风雪，可能会有时速达到50公里以上的大风，基本上登顶勃朗峰的计划难以完成了，而且根据这两天的训练来看，即使是非常好的天气，全队也不可能全部登顶勃朗峰，可能是我们开始就把勃朗峰想象的太简单了吧，因为大部分队员在国内都是攀登过海拔五六千米的雪山，相对海拔只有4810M的勃朗峰大家还是比较有信心的。而阿尔卑斯山的雪山相对攀登的海拔要比国内大部分雪山的高，对体力和毅力要求很大，而且其中有很多地方需要技术攀登才能通过，Aymetic和Hugues根据所有队员这三天的训练表现告诉我们，如果天气允许，只有杨波、罗静、皮带和我有可能登顶勃朗峰。哥！你干啥呢？ Aymetic提议可以带我们到意大利境内去爬一座海拔4000+的山峰，是阿尔卑斯山的一座完全在意大利境内的最高峰——大帕拉迪索峰，大家最后经过讨论决定分成两组，由Hugues带四名可能登顶勃朗峰的队员在霞慕尼多休整一天等待天气好转，剩下的队员由Aymetic和Elodie带队去意大利攀登大帕拉迪索（4061M）。下午回到酒店，美美的洗了一个热水澡，因为外边正下着雨，也没有出门逛街的欲望了，晚餐在酒店旁边的一个意大利餐馆，Aymetic和Hugues联合推荐，酒店前台的服务员也向我们推荐，这里的意大利面很正宗，还有海鲜面也非常棒。今晚可以好好的睡个觉了，明天自然醒——扫街！！！五、小镇休整、感受欧洲休闲度假小镇的悠闲今天是我们这次法国之旅最惬意的一天了，虽然山顶云雾缭绕，但山谷中的霞慕尼小镇却阳光明媚、温暖宜人。吃过早餐，队员们三五成群的结伴闲逛，今天有充足的时间感受霞慕尼小镇。之前大家有商量过，如果天气好可以去乘坐观光直升机、飞滑翔伞或者乘坐缆车上到南针峰的，但山顶的能见度不是很理想，我们只能选择在小镇里溜达了。我们悠闲的走在霞慕尼的街道上，逛的最多的当属各大世界顶级品牌的户外店了，在国内驴友比较熟悉的ARC’ TERYX(始祖鸟)、THENORTH FACE（北面）、MARMOT（土拨鼠）、MOUNTAINHARDWARE（哈德威尔）、Columbia（哥伦比亚）、Haglofs（火柴棍）、MSR、PETZL（攀索）、BD（黑钻）、Salomon（萨洛蒙）、Suunto（松拓）、的Norrona（老人头）、patagonia（巴塔哥尼亚）、Mammut（猛犸象）、ASLEWA（沙乐华）、LEKI、La Sportiva、OR、OSPREY（奥斯普瑞）、Gregory（格里高利）等等，我能叫上名字的就有二三十个之多，这还不包括一些其他滑雪、骑行、滑翔伞等等户外运动品牌，还有一些根本在国内没见过的品牌，真的是比国内的户外展品牌还多。当然还有我们本次活动的主办方LAFUMA（乐飞叶）的专卖店。其他卖旅游纪念品的小店也特别多，怎么说呢，好些东西制造的不是特别精细，木制品、树脂的摆件和冰箱贴、明信片等等，价格从几欧到几十欧不等，还是要买一点小纪念品回去送朋友们的。原来法国著名的百年奢侈品牌“Mont Blanc”就是勃朗峰的意思，LOGO就是根据俯瞰勃朗峰设计的，在中国我们叫它“万宝龙”！真是读万卷书不如行万里路啊。奢侈品看看就好，对我们这些活跃在山海之间的驴子们来说还是搞点户外装备实在。([]

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([]

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
