林玮玲旅行回来一周了，印度的高温让我感觉格外疲惫，即使现在每天的天气预报都说国内如何如何的高温，在我感觉，也是很凉快了，重要的是随处都感受到空调。空调在印度可真的是奢侈品啊~ 印度的攻略网上已经有很多了，比萨就不再详细写了，只把旅行一路的见闻与感受写出来，希望大家能更多的了解印度，这个神奇的国度~ 除了机票是提前预订的，火车票是在印度现买的，旅馆是走到哪里在哪里找，这些都是没有提前预订的。比萨也没有带任何的攻略，没有LP，没有地图。 去印度之前，很多人和我说不要喝当地的水，要买瓶装水，不要吃路边摊。但是我都没做到，我和印度人一样去水管接水喝，吃路边摊，也没有拉肚子，也没有发烧感冒，只是热的起了痱子。也印证了我强大的小强精神，身体好的hold不住啊~ 这次的印度旅行，我最要感谢的是随遇而安，整个印度之行，给了我很大的帮助。在没有地图，没有LP的旅途中，全靠随遇而安的后方支持了。还有旅行途中碰到的躺着也中枪，padman，广州女生小黄，mettar，路人菜菜菜，七七。。。他们都给了我很多帮助。 我也很感谢印度人民，有提醒我注意坏人的，在我火车没有铺位的时候分给我一个床的，给我免费升AC车厢的，免费吃住的金庙~~印度的行程：金奈——新德里——阿格拉——新德里——阿姆利泽——斋普尔——乌代浦尔——斋普尔——瓦拉纳西——加尔各答马来西亚行程：吉隆坡——槟城——兰卡威——槟城——吉隆坡91楼 新德里 https//bbs.8264.com/forum-redire ...

9-pid-20684047.html517楼 马来西亚 https//bbs.8264.com/forum-redire ... 9-pid-20688443.html机票：这次旅行是两个国家，印度和马来西亚。去年10月亚航大促的时候买的廉价机票。深圳——吉隆坡，吉隆坡往返印度，吉隆坡往返槟城，吉隆坡——天津，一共6飞，合成人民币是2200元。后来吉隆坡取消了天津航线，免费改到了吉隆坡——北京。证：印度的证是在淘宝上找的代办，680元。虽然代办费用比实际证费用多出100多，但是我不用去北京，比请假再往返北京，费用要省，所以选择代办。当时就提供了工作证明，和1万的资金证明（6个月）还有护照，其他的都是由代办准备了。十几天就下来了。马来西亚我没有证，去印度之前在LCCT只呆了一个晚上，过境，回来的时候，又在马来西亚呆了5天，不到120小时，所以也是过境。所以马来西亚的证费用省下了。火车：在印度我全程选的都是SL，没有空调，但是印度火车的门、窗都是敞开的，而我选的所有火车都是夜车，所以火车开起来的时候，还是很凉快的。而且SL的票价要比AC3便宜太多了，这也是选择SL的原因。轮船：买机票的时候，由于功课没有做好，买的是吉隆坡往返槟城的，其实应该买吉隆坡——槟城，兰卡威——吉隆坡。所以槟城到兰卡威买的往返船票。公交：印度大城市也是有很多公交的，但是不报站，不过天气太热，我大部分还是选择坐TUTU的。 买机票的时候考虑买深圳到吉隆坡，是想可以去香港玩玩，但是真到出发，才发现根本没那么多时间。但是可恶的深圳机场到底还是让我去了香港。 我到深圳市坐火车过去的，是住的沙发客，住在南山区，离地铁很近。我也是第一次去深圳的宝安机场，原以为飞国际的航站楼是B楼，结果发现不是，找来找去在最偏远的地方，找到了一个二层小楼，这时候离飞机起飞还剩40分钟。亚航是提前45分钟的，就这5分钟只差，让我对宝安机场及人员，失望透顶。 我进去的时候，那边的工作人员，在那里玩手机，我和他讲，我迟到了，因为航站楼很难找。那几个人连眼皮都没抬一下，说“飞机都已经飞走了，你自己的原因有什么办法，再买一张票好了”。我和他们讲，让他们帮忙想想办法，看看能不能进去，他们直接说，“大家都很忙啊，快中午了，都下班吃饭去了，哪里还有人啊，没人给人换登机牌，安检了” 我当时心里那个气啊，说的容易，你的钱是挣得，我的钱是大风刮来的吗。是我迟到了，但用不着这样吧，什么下班吃饭，飞机飞走了，从来只听过飞机晚点，没听过飞机提前起飞的。还有40分钟，这时飞机连舱门还没开呢，飞个屁啊~ 为了不耽误之后的行程，我买了一张香港——吉隆坡的机票，（亚航的廉价机票，改费用比重新买一张还要贵，当时最便宜的就是从香港飞吉隆坡了）。从宝安机场有直接到香港机场的大巴，过关后换成小车，直接送到机场。PS：如果有别国证，用护照可直接过关，不需要港澳通行证。香港机场LCCT去印度金奈LCCT要穿越机场，自己走上飞机~飞机上看金奈金奈机场在金奈机场换了20美金，机场汇率太低了，而且还要手续费，20美金才换了950卢比，很让人郁闷。不过我在印度，都没换到较高的汇率，可能我比较衰吧。在加尔各答听路人菜菜菜说，她最高的时候100美金换了5800卢比，5555~~我最高就换到5500卢比，损失大了！在出机场的门口，可以看见一个简易地图，上面写着如何到地铁站，上面写的是地铁，不过就是在上面跑的，也没看见是在地下跑。一出机场，我就有一种明星走红地毯的感觉，那叫万众瞩目啊，印度人看你是外国人，都不措眼珠子的看你。我兜兜转转问了好几个人，才确定那个地铁站的方向，因为我也不知道是出了机场就左拐，还是到马路左拐。不过走着走着就看到火车了。车票6卢比，到埃各莫尔站。出了埃各莫尔车站，在街的对面有很多旅馆，但是金奈的旅馆相比北印是比较贵的，所以我走了2个小时都没有找到便宜又干净旅馆，总之和想象中的有差距。这个时候已经是印度的中午了，也就是国内的下午，印度和中国有2个半小时的时差。背着大包的我又累又饿，所以决定还是先吃饭再做别的打算。打了一辆TUTU到金奈火车站，因为我要买金奈——德里的火车票。TUTU一定要和司机讲价啊，他跟我说120卢比，我划价到60卢比。后来到北印，才发现60卢比很贵了~这是我在印度吃的第一顿饭，Biryani。饭下面是一个鸡腿和鸡蛋，另外点了一杯chai，一共是85卢比。合人民币10块钱吧。（人民币和卢比，是18点多）金奈火车站是有外国人售票办公室的，在售票厅的二楼。我去的时候刚开始没注意挂着的牌子，然后问那边的保安，他们告诉我在三楼，我严重怀疑他们根本听不懂英语，不懂装懂。在三楼找了一圈没找到。到二楼，抬头就看到了提示牌，推门直接走进办公室，里面的工作人员，服务态度很好。问我要去哪里，什么时候的车，坐哪种车厢。一开始我想着，从金奈到德里，33个小时，印度又这么热，还是买AC3吧，结果只剩WL了，只有AC2，票价2280卢比，感觉太贵了。于是坚持买了SL，那个女的一直说，SL不适合我，太热了，但是我还是坚持要做SL，我告诉她，AC2对我来说，太贵了~事实证明，SL我还是能忍受的，没有想象中那么恐怖。比我在国内坐那种没有空调的普快凉快多了！买完车票，我决定去Mahabalipuram,离金奈市区60公里，有公交588，588B，588C通往那里。票价是85卢比，不过随遇而安和我说，他去的时候是70卢比，可能是没有空调的缘故吧。找公交588B可费劲了，我就围着车站走啊走啊的，终于在快要崩溃的时候找到了一个大的公交车站，也终于有一个人懂英文，直接把我带到了588B车的前面。超感激那个小男生。金奈火车站附近的交警，在罚钱，呵呵~路上看见有人在游行演讲，估计是拥护哪个政党吧。到玛玛拉普兰下车不要再附近找旅馆，往海边的方向走，快走到海边的时候，有很多GUEST HOUSE，我之前也没有看LP，随便找了一家看上去很新的住了进去。墙壁院子都是新粉刷的。我要了一个离露台近的房间，300卢比。不过我在印度第一次被骗，也是在这家。我给店主500卢比，他没有找给我，说是要开摩托带我逛景点。我想着天气热，200卢比也不多（我还在用卢比换人民币），于是就答应了。他也确实带我逛了景点，我进去，他就在景区门口等着。后来他又说附近有个鳄鱼公园很好玩，结果开到半路，他说他的摩托没有油了，需要加油，要300卢比。我本来是不想给的，但是这路上这么荒凉，他要给我扔路上，我都不知道怎么回去，就在加油站给了300卢比。后来到了北印，才知道500卢比是个什么概念，懊悔死我了，其实我当时强硬的不给他钱加油，也不会怎么样的，谁让咱第一次来印度呢~大家以后去印度，一定要提高警惕，印度商人的骗人伎俩~我就住在这家清晨房间我在印度除KEC吃过的最贵的一顿饭，一盘面条200卢比，刚到印度不了解物价~清晨的海边玛玛拉普兰姆面对孟加拉湾，夜晚这里凉风习习，完全感觉不到白天的烈日炎炎。我躺在露台的吊床上睡着了。我在印度唯有这一次睡在外面被蚊子咬了，之后发现印度很神奇的没有蚊子！会不会都给热死了？这里有很多世界文化遗产的遗址，票价是250卢比，可以看两个。印度人只需要10卢比就可以参观了~海岸神庙Shore Temple刚到金奈很不习惯印度的灰尘吹到脸上的感觉，第一时间选择纱巾，不过后来习惯了，没再带过纱巾~比萨自己一个人走印度，没人给拍照，印度人的拍照水平实在很难恭维，还好带了一个自拍杆旁遮达拉Pancha Rathas这个是那个旅店的小老板带我到的一个景点，免费的，所以我也不知道这个景点的名字，就是一个巨大的岩石~不知道是不是传说中的变色龙，在树上经常看到~可爱的印度小孩，无论男孩女孩腰上都会有个腰链，在火车上遇到过一个，材质就像那种钢丝锁~印度人超喜欢金光闪闪的东西，所以无论男女都喜欢佩戴首饰~我从金奈到德里的火车是晚上10点多了，所以我5点多退房。印度南部的旅馆大部分是24小时的，不用中午12点退房。按照我的估计6点坐大巴回金奈坐火车时来的及的，不过回金奈时坐的588C，而且又是金奈的下半高峰，让我小紧张了一把~从玛玛拉普兰姆——金奈有588、588B、588C，我来的时候是在火车站附近乘的588B，所以回去的时候我理所当然的认为588C也应该是到火车站附近，结果售票员告诉我588C并不到火车站，但是我可以到金奈市区换车，他到时会叫我。当时我以为他说的是公交，所以下车就一直在找公交车站，后来问人才知道原来是他们的城铁，就是在上面跑的地铁，而地铁站也是在一个大楼里面。这个地铁站真的很让我长见识，进去看就像一个没有完工的超市，空旷，只有柱子。随着人流找到了售票窗口，问他们要去火车站，在哪一站下。结果卖票的都不太懂英文，这是过来一个警察，他的英文不错，就在纸上给我画了一个地铁的路线图，写上了每一个站的名字，告诉我在parkdown这站下车，让我数着站，因为地铁不报站。我感叹我遇到了好民警！站台是在三楼，下班高峰，印度男人真的是多啊。我就在看不到头的男人群中，寻找印度女人。终于让我发现了小部分印度女人，兴奋，有一种找到组织的兴奋！谁会想一个人和几十号男人挤在一个车厢。印度人的味道，你懂的~即使是女士车厢，也是挤不动。十几节车厢，就这么一节坐女人，可想而知有多挤了，而且是没有车门的，车速也不慢，我可真是不敢靠外站，怕给挤下去，赶紧跑到车厢最中间，才会感觉有安全感。我发现不但数学学的不好，记忆力也不好。没几站，我就不记得数到第几站了，然后赶紧问周围的女生。因为公交路上堵车，再加上找地铁站，此时已经9点半了，我很担心我下了车，是不是还有很远的路才能到火车站。而且我是第一次坐印度火车，真怕找不到车，深圳机场给我的阴影太大了~还好有个女生，英语发音超级准，她跟我说，到站会叫我的。等到下车的时候，又有一个女生主动说，她要路过火车站，让我跟着她走，不用搭任何的车，出了地铁就能看见火车站，她可以直接把我送到火车站。而她确实把我送到了火车站的大厅，再次感叹，运气好，碰到好人了！女士车厢，手机在晃动的车厢里拍的，有些抖，我实在腾不出手去拿相机~当火车站的时候10点左右吧，然后就在液晶屏幕上找我的车次，但是并没有显示在哪个站台。然后就拿着车票问身旁的一个男生，我那趟车在哪个站台。他告诉我要看液晶屏，他也正目不转睛的盯着屏幕看，我就看见他的汗就顺着脸流啊流的，胳膊也在流汗，我才发现我自己也是这样，一点不夸张的说长这么大都没出过这么多的汗。过了一会儿，哥们儿的车可能是进站了，就和我说，现在你的车还没来，不知道哪个站台，你要站在这里不要动，看着屏幕，那上面会有显示。我点点头，心说，还不让动，等他走了，我还是四处转转，因为有些饿了。买了一杯牛奶，因为实在是奶香四溢，才10卢比，买了一个油炸的不知道什么东西沾酱吃。人饿的时候，是不会管吃的东西叫什么的。给我的感觉就是放了好几天的干饼，划嗓子，不喝水是咽不下去的！终于我的车次在屏幕上显示了，就往站台走，这个时候还不知道看站台的小液晶屏，上面有车厢号，可以走到相应的车厢号那里等车。我一路问的走到了S3车厢的位置，车来的时候也正好停在这里。当我放下背包的时候，整件T恤已经全湿了，贴在身上都变透明了，哈哈~我这一路只有一次是中铺，还被调到了AC，整个行程全部是上铺。这也是我买车票是特别要求的，在填表的时候都会写上UB。原因很简单，第一安全，可以把行李放到上铺，时刻看着行李，我没买链锁，太沉。第二，上车就可以躺着，中铺平常事放下来的，大家都坐在下铺，所以中铺和下铺不可以随意躺着。侧铺下铺窗子一直开着，我可不想嘴被吹歪了，侧上铺过道的电扇吹不到，很闷~所以对于我最理想的就是上铺。上车简单洗脸就睡了，正好有三个电扇冲着我吹，晚上还是蛮舒服的~当然是对我而言，怕热，怕人多的还是不要尝试。 车厢 车厢印度的火车可以充电，AC车厢很多，SL就再车厢的尽头，这张是手机充电的时候拍的。车晃，手机拍的也不清楚~早上是被饿醒的，吃了一个盒饭Biryani，35卢比，但是辣的很奇怪，没吃完。又买了一个面包三明治，这才吃饱。可能是天气太热的缘故，吃完就觉得困，又接着睡，直到把我热醒。正好是中午，外面吹进来的都是热风，我在上铺感觉都像在锅里，衣服全都贴在身上。因为印度女人不能露腿的，所以一直都是穿长裤。从包里找出短裤、吊带换上，我才不管什么不能露胳膊露腿的呢。从这天起，我就开始每天都喝一瓶藿香正气水。在印度期间没感冒，没拉肚子，没中暑，只长了痱子，也算奇迹了。换完衣服上铺是不能去了，太热，然后一群90后的印度小兵就坐着和我聊天，要求我给他们拍照，还要和我合照，呵呵。还有印度的大叔也要与我照相，总之，在太阳没下山之前，我又困了，继续爬上去睡觉。([]

林怡桦第一部分：行程计划及行程概况 此行EBC之前对于尼泊尔这个国家的了解并不多，在网上“摆渡”过后才知道这个地图上的小国居然有着世界上极其丰富的徒步等户外活动资源。 尼泊尔是登山徒步旅行者和探险家的乐园，位于世界最高的山地板块，尼泊尔的北部和东部地区被包括世界第一高峰珠穆朗玛峰在内的喜马拉雅山脉所覆盖。全世界14座8000米以上的山峰在尼泊尔境内有8座，每年有数不清的登山者来到这个圣地进行登山徒步等户外活动。 登山运动也在尼泊尔国民中拥有至高无上的地位。1953年5月29日,尼泊尔的夏尔巴丹增与新西兰的著名登山家希拉里共同实现了人类首次登顶世界最高峰珠穆朗玛峰,为尼泊尔赢得了巨大的荣誉。政府对登山运动也予以高度重视,把登山作为振兴尼泊尔国家经济、外交、旅游和体育事业发展的重要抓手。这些年以登山探险为目的的旅游产业在尼泊尔蓬勃发展，并发展为该国旅游产业的重要组成部分。 现在，尼政府已经批准了境内326座山对外开放。在尼泊尔，登山活动早已不限于攀登珠穆朗玛峰，数十年的发展使之日趋丰富，由登山还衍生出徒步、溯溪、攀岩、漂流、蹦极、溪降等极限运动。 在尼泊尔登山徒步，你可以见证世界上所有样式的山地风光。 在了解了尼泊尔有如此丰富的徒步及户外资源后，对于走EBC（珠峰环线徒步）还是走ACT（安娜普尔娜大环线）又纠结了一段时间，毕竟出一次国徒步不是件说去就去那么容易的事情，认真选择好这次出行的目的地还是有十分的必要。 最后还是“摆渡”给了我觉得比较满意的答案：（摘自一驴友的感言） 无论是从难度，景观丰富程度还是名气上看安纳普尔娜都更适合大多数游客，但大多数游客去徒步主要目的还是看雪山，在这一点上的权重无疑应该占据更大分数，而在雪山冰川景观这一点上珠峰完胜安纳普尔娜。 记得去安纳普尔娜前在磨房读过一篇游记，写到作者在ABC凝视安纳普尔娜I下的冰川，顿感天地之大，自我渺小，浑然忘我。但我在ABC并无此感，因为此前去了珠峰，对比珠峰，努子及其下的坤布冰川，安纳普尔娜及其冰川在规模和气势上远逊，只有站在KALAPATTHAR上望着对面的珠峰，努子及其下的坤布冰川我才真切的有了那种感觉，忘我。 所以如果能适应珠峰难度，徒步主要目的又为观雪山景观，首推珠峰。如果在尼泊尔只打算去一个地方徒步，就去珠峰；如果珠峰和安纳普尔娜都打算去，就先去安纳普尔娜，以免先去珠峰，再去安纳普尔娜感到失望。 综上所述，我最终决定还是走EBC，首先这个EBC的强度非常适合我，全程基本上都在高海拔地区徒步，我就喜欢这样的挑战（最终结果证明我的全程重装徒步完美完成了，整个过程身体没有任何异样或不适感觉），而且这个月份去EBC也是非常合适的，中高海拔处的高山杜鹃开得非常灿烂，反而安纳普尔娜那边雨季已经开始了。 确定好行程计划后就开始了出发前的一些准备工作，还在淘宝上准备了不少东西，包括机票和证都在淘宝上安排预订并处理好了。保险也是在网上购买了美亚的万国游踪黄金计划。 一直喜欢一个人独行，可能也是出于自私的心态考虑吧（一个人走，永远不用承担带一队人走产生的风险）。毕竟自己在茂名的户外界也是一个小小的领队，对于户外的安全及意外了解甚深，也深知一个人走的安全概率永远比带一队人走要高，毕竟自己不是一个初驴了，而且EBC是行走于中国之外，对英语的沟通能力要求也相对有点高，而这方面也并不是我所要担心的问，因为我并不需要一个英语水平比我更高的队友来协助处理行程过程中的语言沟通问。所以在一开始就从没想过要召集其他人一起出行EBC。 结果有一天突然想到一个问：参考了国内众多户外论坛的帖子，冒似走EBC的人并不是很多（相对ABC、ACT及布恩小环线来说），有机会应该带多点或者约多点国内的驴友一起走才行。 于是也就有了下面的行程计划：5月1日在加德满都集中5月2日订加德满都飞卢卡拉的机票，采购或补充物质，闲逛，......。5月3日早上飞鲁克拉，在鲁克拉再补充些物质（高山气罐等），如需请向导亦可在此安排好。5月3日开始徒步，成熟线路，攻略国内好多论坛都有（以下转摘自磨房内的行程及攻略帖，谢谢各位前辈了）：D1：加德满都——LUKLA（鲁克拉）（2840米）——Phakding(2610米)(徒步2．5小时，准-，海拔略有下降)D2：Phakding（2610米）——Namche Bazar（3440米）（徒步5小时，上升800米，准+） D3：Namche（3440米）------Tengpoche（3860米）（徒步5小时，户外上升1000米，准+）D4：Tengboche(3860米)----Dingboche(4410米)（徒步4小时，上升800米，准）D5：Dingboche(4410)---Chukhung(4730)（徒步5小时，上升1000米，准+）D6：Chukhung(4730)——Chukhung-Ri（5550米）——Chukhung(4730)——Dingboche(4410)——Lhobuche(4910)（徒步7小时，上下爬升1400米，强）D7：Lobuche(4910米)——Gorap Shep(5140米)——Kala Patthar(5600米)——Gorap Shep(5140米)（徒步5小时，爬升650米，准+）D8：Gorak Shep(5140米)——Kala Patthar(5600米)——Gorak Shep——EBC（珠峰大本营，5364米）——Gorak Shep（徒步6小时，爬升900米，准+） D9：Gorak Shep(5140米)——Lobuche(4910米)——Dzonglha(4830米)（徒步4小时，一路向下，准）D10：Dzonglha(宗那，4830米)——C ho La垭口（5330米）——Thagnak(塘那，4700米）（徒步5小时，上升500米，挑战-）D11：Thagnak(塘那，4700米）——Gokyo（4790米）——第五湖（4990米）——Gokyo（4790米）（徒步5小时，上升500米，准+）D12：Gokyo（4790米）——Gokyo-RI（5360米）——Gokyo（4790米）——Namche(3440米)（徒步9.5小时，上升1170米，下降2500米,挑战） D13：Namche(3440米)——Lukla(2840米）---联系第二天回程班机（徒步5小时，上升400米，下降1000米,准）D14：回到加德满都，自由活动。D15：继续尼泊尔其他行程或解散队伍从陆路或航空回国。 活动过程根据队友实际身体状况可以有1-2天的调整及适应时间，如果大家体力及状况超好，在保障安全第一的前提下亦可以在一天时间内多走些路程。每年的4-5月及10-11月好象是EBC的徒步旺季，沿途会有更多的人一起徒步。 但最终的实际行程更改为如下：（非常郑重地声明，以下徒步行程不再牵涉时间上的说明，用队友的话来说，之前的攻略给人有坑爹的感觉，毕竟每个队员每个团队的体力体能不完全一样，在时间的消耗上是完全不同的。以下海拔高度及行程距离数据来自于本人带的麦哲伦500，仅供参考！）5月1日中午全体队员7人在昆明机场集中，到达加德满都后兑换尼币、办理Ncell的电话卡。在国内出发前已经约好了加都的王龙为我们提前预订了5月2日加都飞卢卡拉的往返机票（比自己去订还要便宜一点），所以整个徒步行程提前一天开始了。5月2日早上8：30（尼泊尔时间）从加德满都起飞，9点到达卢卡拉。一些队友再补充了些物质及装备，在机场请到了两个非常满意的背夫。5月2日徒步第一天D1：午饭后1130开始徒步，1520到达客栈。Lukla（卢卡拉）（2863米）---Phakding(2622米)，徒步10.1公里；5月3日徒步第二天D2：Phakding（2622米）---Namche Bazar（3440米）徒步10公里； 5月4日徒步第三天D3：Namche（3440米）---Tengpoche（3860米）徒步9.5公里；5月5日徒步第四天D4：Tengboche(3860米)---Dingboche(4320米) 徒步10.6公里；5月6日徒步第五天D5：Dingboche(4320米)---Chukhung(4721米) 徒步4.64公里；Chukhung---ChukhungRi（5400米）徒步来回5公里；5月7日徒步第六天D6：Chukhung(4721米)---Dingboche(4320米)---Lhobuche(4921米) 徒步14.04公里；5月8日徒步第七天D7：Lobuche(4921米)---Gorap Shep(5180米) 徒步4.3公里；Gorap Shep(5180米)---EBC(5337米) 徒步来回9.8公里；5月9日徒步第八天D8：Gorak Shep(5180米)---Kala Patthar(5647米) 徒步来回3.86公里； Gorak Shep---Dzonglha(4835米) 徒步6.5公里；5月10日徒步第九天D9：Dzonglha(宗那，4835米)--- C ho La垭口（5373米）---Thagnak(塘那，4711米）全程徒步8.4公里；5月11日徒步第十天D10：Thagnak(塘那，4711米）---Gokyo（4771米，第三湖边） 徒步3.85公里；Gokyo---第四湖（4888米） 徒步2.8公里；第四湖——第五湖（4999米）徒步3.3公里；5月12日徒步第十一天D11：Gokyo（4771米）---Gokyo-RI（5360米）徒步来回3.5公里；Gokyo（4771米）---RenjoPass（5414米）---Thame(3800米) 徒步20公里；5月13日徒步第十二天D12：Thame(3800米)---Namche Bazar(3440米)——Phakding（2622米） 徒步19公里；5月14日徒步第十三天D13：Phakding（2622米）---Lukla(2863米）徒步7.1公里；上午就结束了所有徒步行程，中午在客栈吃了令大家今生难忘的牛肉粒做成的“牛排”，晚上自己出去做饭吃； 至此用13天时间完成EBC内三条沟的徒步行程，第三条沟（左沟）并没有走常规线路，在D9和D10那晚大家就商量通过并更改成了这条冷门线路，但是这是一条风景非常漂亮壮观的线路，在RenjoPass世界几大高峰尽收眼底，特别是珠峰那宏伟的英姿更是令人留连忘返。 5月15日卢卡拉机场两个航空公司的班机分别只飞了一个航班，由于大雾和大风我们的第二航班都无法起飞，滞留一天，下午继续去航空公司办公点排班，晚餐自己做饭吃； 5月16日大雾，一个航班都没有，听说博卡拉那边还有小飞机失事。我们当中五人当机立断，决定坐直升机回加都。联系直升机，付款，中午12点前回到加都。午餐在加都满堂红川菜馆用餐，下午对整个徒步行程的费用进行了结算，然后逛了王宫。晚上买了点本地的土特产，还买了瓶XO去满堂红吃了一顿鸳鸯火锅； 5月17日上午在加都买了些手信，11点前包车去巴德岗转了一圈，下午14点回到加都国际机场办理登机手续，16：05正式起飞，晚上北京时间21点多回到昆明。至此结束全部尼泊尔行程回到祖国。每天行程快速通道链接：5月1日：KunMing-Kathmandu（昆明-加德满都）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-1938904-2-1.html

帖子公布后收到不少人的咨询，经过简单的筛选最后确定了共7人出发，5男2女。其实也是这简单的筛选差点把整个行程搞砸了，所幸没有重大事故发生，没有给队友们留下任何阴影或压力，具体情况后述。 行程组队： 队员除了我，还有来自湖南长沙的一米姐，珠海的孤雁GG，广东茂名的表哥，湛江有三个队友老农夫GG、大羽GG、深蓝无忧MM，中途孤雁退出后一个来自四川的骑友小唐加入了我们的队伍。小唐是我们徒步第八天时在Kala Patthar(5647米)上遇到的，在那我们几个华人合影留念，毕竟这次EBC徒步全程能见到的华人真的不多，而且是在5647米的海拔上偶遇。下撤时我把这次打印的行程攻略给了他一本（最后他给了马来西亚的领队刘大哥），他说争取这两天跟上我的队伍，因为他还有EBC大本营没走，要赶上我们真的要抓紧时间了。最后还是在徒步第九天时在Thagnak（塘那）赶上了。 在我们的EBC群里，大家沟通了各自的驴行经历，并且逐渐确定了每个人出行时要带的装备、干粮及应急药品。由于不太放心，我还是购买了更多的备用药品，本想是带去备用的，结果回来时一大包药只剩不到四分之一。除了救心丹未开封，夏桑菊未用完，部分肠胃药未启用，其他消炎类的药品都用完或开启过了。 下面是队友介绍：一米姐：来自湖南长沙，本次行程极其超强的女队友，纵然徒步第五天入风呕吐，但在大家建议下用药，最终第二天恢复状况，并且顺利走完全程。孤雁：来自广东珠海的GG，徒步前几天超级快速，最终结果也令他和大家都遗憾，由于出现高反症状，下撤最快的变成他了。表哥：来自广东茂名的大GG。广东奇奥瓷砖茂名总经销的总经理。平时都与我一起出去驴行，体能体力是杠杠的。 农夫：来自广东湛江的大GG。队伍中年纪最大的就是他了。去年上半年大家一起走了一次香港麦径，下半年在茂名参加了由广州阳江茂名湛江四地市队伍一起组织的2日4大顶活动，体能体力表现还是非常不错的。大羽：来自广东湛江的GG，全程最让人担心的男队员，虽然走得慢，但是最能安逸徒步的就是他，一路漫步，徒步过程始终保持在队伍的中后位置。无忧（深蓝无忧）：来自广东湛江 的MM，有过高原徒步的经验，但是体力体能没有想象中的那么好。给大家的感觉是：我慢，原来还有人比我更慢。 徒步第11天出现状况，把大家都吓坏了。小唐：来自四川泸州，此次行程的插队队员。一直都是骑行，这次是第一次徒步，体力体能还是不错的。大兵：就是本人了，来自广东茂名，比较喜欢ZN式的重装登山徒步。不多说了，费事有黄婆卖瓜的嫌疑。 物质装备： 每次出行，装备和物质是必不可少的，这次我携带的装备、干粮及药品清单大致如下： 1、装备：75升北山狼登山包1个、0-10度黑冰羽绒睡袋1个、威斯高邦防水登山鞋1双（防水性能有问）、7075航空铝登山杖2支、速干裤2条、速干长袖衣4件、薄羽绒服1件、休闲鞋1双、紧身背心1件、牛仔裤1条、休闲短袖衣1件、棉内裤3条、袜子3双、魔术头巾7条、渔夫帽1个、普通手套1双（之后在EBC途中还买多了一双抓绒手套）、雨衣雨裤1套、护踝、护膝、墨镜、洗漱用品、防晒霜（加都飞卢卡拉之前在机场买了一支SPF110的）、1升保温水壶2个；SONY-A300单反相机1台、单反相机电池4个、CF卡4片、宾得WG-II相机1台、电池3块、26000毫安太阳能充电电池一个、改装后的单反相机电池及宾得电池充电器各一个、各种手机的充电数据线、麦哲伦的探险家500GPS1台、GPS电池3块、GPS充电及数据线1套、尖咀钳1把、多功能螺丝刀1套、电工胶布1卷、摄影腰包1个、急救药包1个、记事本、证件等等； 2、干粮：内蒙古风干牛肉干1.5斤、巧克力及糖果等1.5公斤、牛奶片1斤、太古姜红糖茶1包、6大包紫菜汤（速泡型）； 3、药品：高原康3盒、加合百服宁1盒、菲斯特1盒、保济丸若干、霍香正气滴丸若干小包、牛黄上清片1板、牛黄解毒丸若干、头孢、阿莫西林、西瓜霜喷喉粉剂、创可贴、云南白药、活络油、速效救心丸、纱布、碘酒、绷带等。 公共用装备我准备了一个3升的高压锅、炉头、防风板。 所有装备的重量从国内飞到加都我都没刻意称量过，只是在徒步第二天开始时我们请的那个背夫JYAMJO与我打赌说他背的背包要比我的重，其实我心里有数，JYAMJO背的是表哥的装备包，他的包全程都是我帮他打包的，重量去到什么程度我心里是比较清楚的，绝对不可能比我的重。于是我拿出带来的电子称称着对比了一下，我的大背包是18公斤，腰包是4公斤，总共加起来是22公斤（徒步第三天开始又装了3升水袋来用了三天，22公斤未包括水袋装水后的重量），表哥的大背包是15公斤，加上JYAMJO自己的小背包总共都没超过20公斤。我与JYAMJO开玩笑说现在我是背夫了，因为你这个职业背夫都没有我背的重，JYAMJO马上拱手相让说佩服。 行程景观及路线概况：1、全程风景非常漂亮，每天与雪山为伴，可以看见的雪山多达几十座。其中：8000米以上的有：珠峰、洛子峰、卓奥友、马卡鲁。 2、整个线路都属于成熟线路，没有任何大的风险。全程徒步线路非常明晰，路指示非常清楚，想要迷路？除非脑子真的缺氧了！ 3、徒步过程中的配套设施完善，可大胆放心地徒步。基本上不超过3小时的路程就会有休息的客栈或餐厅，可以随时享受高原徒步带来的乐趣及享受高原饮品。 4、整体徒步行程费用非常低廉。背夫一天1400元尼币（负重超过15公斤，15公斤以内是1200元尼币。吃住全包，表面是这样的，其实里面有其他文章，后述），如果2个人请一个背夫就更划算。山上住宿一天75-150尼币（越高越贵）。徒步13天，我的总费用（虽然全程我是自己重装，但还是自愿与大家一起分摊了背夫费用）是2920元人民币，平均每天不到230元人民币，而且还是非常FB的消费了，隔天都喝白酒或啤酒，每天大壶水泡功夫茶，吃的东西种类又多（其实都是试味的多，毕竟中国人的嘴巴太叼了）。 5、徒步行程难度不大，计划的时间是13天，其实我们7人12天就走完全程（第一天和最后一天加起来都没超过正常1天的徒步行程），每天只徒步2.5-6小时，徒步时间最长的那天是第11天走了11个小时（这是大队伍的时间，我与小唐凌晨3点就起床去爬GokyoRi了，比其他人走多了5个小时）。关键是大家要遵循循序渐进的原则，因为每天的行程距离是固定的了，在高原徒步这样的行程肯定是慢走好过快走的，这样可以慢慢地适应海拔的升高，对预防高反是非常有利的。行程中有队友没听从这个规则，结果徒步到中途被迫退出，遗憾地结束了这次EBC行程。6、此次EBC徒步包括了尼泊尔珠峰国家公园内的三条沟ChukhungRi、EBC、GokyoRi，整个行程我们用12天就完成了。途中偶遇的6位马来西亚华人，他们好象是花了12天时间只是来回走了EBC这一条经典的徒步线路，其他两条沟都未涉及，或许这是他们下一次的行程计划吧。ChukhungRi：海拔5400米。中午到的Chukhung，午餐后早早出发往ChukhungRi赶，结果上山后风太大，气温很低，其他队友或半路下撤或在半路等候。在海拔5130米左右的高度手机有信号，在那打了好几个电话回去报平安，再往上或往下就没有信号了，一个奇怪的地方。EBC：Everest Base Camp，尼泊尔珠峰南坡大本营，海拔5337米。GokyoRi：海拔5360米，在第三湖旁边。凌晨3点起床，3：30叫醒小唐一起去，在楼下遇见2个老外，他们的向导不敢带他们上GokyoRi，说是昨晚下了一晚的雪，积雪深厚，路况不清楚，出行的话会很危险。之后他们问我懂不懂路，我说我有GPS，有座，应该可以上得去，最后他们两个跟着我俩上了不到三分之一就撤退了。天没亮，气温又低，积雪厚，打着头灯寸步难行。整个行程是3.5公里，来回花了我们5个小时，连相机都在雪地里滚了一堆雪，后期的相片有斑点，镜头被雪水搞脏了。第三部分：行程开始 5月1日：KunMing-Kathmandu（昆明-加德满都） 经过20多天的装备及物质筹备，大家都准备好就等出发。在这节骨眼上，出发前6天我在一次颈后杠铃上举时不小心受伤，严重扭伤腰肌，站立及徒步都没问，坐的时间久了就很难站起来。于是赶紧去找了一个老中医帮忙拔火罐，连续拔了5天才勉强恢复正常。队友们都非常关心我的健康状况，确实也不可轻视，毕竟要出去走长线了，而且是在高海拔负重连续徒步13天，万一有差错会影响所有人的行程。 4月30日下午13点多与表哥背着大包小包登上开往昆明的火车，正式开始了我们的行程。5月1日早上8点左右到达昆明站，在出站口与队友一米姐会合。湛江的老农夫、大羽、无忧要将近10点才到昆明站，最后我们6人在锦江酒店坐空港快线去机场。珠海的孤雁已经提前一天到达昆明，住在机场宾馆。中午12点左右我们就办好了登机手续，本想自助值机的，在机场转了好一会都没见有此航班的值机系统，最后问了才知道这趟国际航班不支持自助值机，一行7人只好推着大包小包去排队办理登机手续。 5月1日早上8点到达昆明。 将近10：30在锦江酒店旁边的福照楼吃“早午餐”。在这用餐后没几天，这个酒楼就搬离这里了。 11点多背着大包小包去找办理登机手续的服务台。 几个人的背包堆起来差不多也有一个人那么高了。 排队无聊，也来拍几张吧。 表哥。 一个漂亮的东航MM。 过了安检上候机厅。 登机牌和行李票。办理登机手续时工作人员会问你想坐什么位置，我当时就说找个靠窗的位置坐就行了。我坐的这个位置刚好是紧急通道，前后距离非常宽，坐起来非常舒服。 登机了。 飞离跑道瞬间，离开昆明，离开祖国，飞向尼泊尔。 窗外飞机下面的昆明。 飞机餐，我要的是一份鱼肉饭。餐盒里还有面包、花生、牛肉、圣女果等。 准备降落在加都机场。 帮农夫偷拍了一张。相片左边那个穿粉色衣服的男子是机场工作人员，说一口流利的中文，叫不要拍照，把我吓了一跳，正在想是同行的哪个队友在与我开玩笑呢。 加德满都特里布万国际机场，也是尼泊尔唯一一个国际机场，离市区大概是6公里的车程。 去往大厅办理入境手续。 Ncell是尼泊尔的一家通讯公司，在机场的出口大厅或者到加都市区找营业厅都可办理该公司的手机卡（GSM网络）。徒步13天时间里有7天无信号，6天时间有信号。另外一个通讯公司Ntc的卡到了卢卡拉之后都没信号了。所以建议大家走EBC的话办理一个Ncell的卡，办卡手续很简单，护照复印件一份（复印有相片及有注那两页），护照相片一张，申请表一份（填英文的，慢慢来）100元尼币的开卡费用，里面包含了少量话费。关于国内手机，中国移动全球通只要有信号的地方都可以使用,电信和联通不详。（如您到【尼泊尔】漫游使用【NTC】网络，通信费如下：拨打漫游当地电话：忙时【4.99】元/分钟，闲时【4.99】元/分钟；拨打中国电话（台港澳除外）：忙时【14.99】元/分钟，闲时【14.99】元/分钟；拨打国际电话（含台港澳）：忙时【14.99】元/分钟，闲时【14.99】元/分钟；接听电话忙时【5.99】元/分钟，闲时【5.99】元/分钟。接收短信免费，发短信1.99元/条。漫游GPRS流量费很贵，大概50元人民币1M，没事最好将手机的GPRS功能关闭掉。温馨提示： ●本资费货币单位为人民币。●计费时长为【话音：分钟，短信：条】。●闲忙时间安排以当地运营商资料为准。●本资费准仅供参考，具体资费应以国外运营商（Ntc是中国移动在尼泊尔的合作运营商）提供的计费准为准。我们可以购买Ncell的卡，在尼泊尔国内资费可以忽略不计，打回中国大概RMB0.6元/分钟，可以GPRS上网，价格也不贵。尽量到Ncell Shop去购买(99RS，可以购买1张或者2张SIM卡，内有50或者各25RS话费)。Ncell的充值比较方便，徒步期间在卢卡拉和南池都可以买到充值卡，充值方法参考充值卡背面的说明，操作很简单的，网络忙或信号不太好的时候会比较难充值，试多几次就行了。 在机场大厅有家货币兑换点。 我们想了解一下人民币与卢比兑换比率的行情，一行几人往那边走过去，好象要打劫一样。结果很失望，这个点不兑换人民币，难道怕我们用假钞？ 询问无果，我们回来排队办理入境手续。在飞机上空姐就给每人发了一张尼泊尔的入境卡，不过大家英文不是很好加上都在闭目养神，结果全部搜集来由我一个人来帮大家填了。在飞机上不填也没关系，出到这个大厅还是要补填的，这样可能会浪费一点时间。 尼泊尔入境登记卡。 排队办理入境手续。其实不懂英文也没关系，工作人员一般都不问你什么问，除非是你的证件有不清楚或错误的地方才会咨询你。 行李提取信息告示栏。我们在1号轨道提行李。 检查一下行李。 提完行李后要经过核对才给放行，就是你的行李票号码要与行李上的号码对得上才行。所以不要把你的行李票弄丢了，或者拿到行李时不要马上就把行李上的给弄掉，不然要核对很久才放行，对于一个语言沟通不是很流利的人来说这种事情是一件非常讨厌的。 工作人员核对行李票没问后继续往外面走，这时要过一个安检，我们在后面排队，前面全部是一些其他国家的老外在那过得热火朝天。正好有两个工作人员问我们是从哪来的，我说We come from China，We are Chinese。他立马就放行了。看来中尼还是关系非常不错的友邦。 相片中的这个小伙子就是王龙。一个非常聪明的加都小伙，他居然在磨房里看到我发的帖，然后在QQ上加我为好友与我联系在加都的包车及买机票等问。一开始我就没相信他，怕他是坑人的。之后慢慢聊慢慢了解才知道这个家伙还是不错的，在重庆医科大学留学5年（交了个中国女朋友，可能是喝女朋友口水多的缘故，他的中文说得非常流利而且那重庆话说得还非常纯正。王龙的联系方式：QQ1718839325，手机00977-9841182489），回国后没当多久医生就来做旅行社这一行了，原因很简单：在尼泊尔当医生没做导游赚钱，当时他说这个原因时我实在不是很相信，相比中国国内，医生职业是非常不错的了，之后徒步期间我们才真正明白，在尼泊尔这个到处都是山的国度里，空气清新，水质良好无污染，生病的人确实是很少，难怪医生都要转行。确认王龙值得相信后我提前叫他帮我们7人订了5月2日加都飞卢卡拉的机票，这样我们的徒步时间就提前了一天，而且还谈好了包车的价格，由他来机场接我们到加都市区（每人20元人民币，7人收130元）。在昆明登机前我就打王龙的电话，结果一直打不通，我还与表哥说王龙可能放我们鸽子了，到了加都后所有行程还是要按照之前的计划进行了。 谁知快出到机场大厅出口，我远远就看到了粘在接机等候厅玻璃上的中文接机信息：大兵7人。这是在异国看到的第一拔中文字，感觉非常亲切。于是大家都在这张接机牌前照相留念，高兴得忘乎所以，以致于忘记了在机场那的Ncell Shop办理Ncell的手机卡。 大家都在照相，大厅里面就有一个Ncell Shop（相片左边），照完相就走人了，手机卡都没去办。一个重庆MM在帮我们照相，她的朋友在旁边看着也觉得有点好笑，居然有个加都小伙接我们7人的机，还写的是中文版的接机牌。 照了相径直往外走，王龙带我们去找我们包的车。由于匆忙（应该是我工作没到家），忘记告诉大家在机场附近坐车千万不要让本地的人帮你搬行李（有些人还是强行上来“帮忙”的），不要以为他们很热情，等搬完东西上车后你的钱包就要张口吐钱了，他们会问你要小费的，金额不详，一般最少要100RS，虽然折算回人民币不多，但是可能会给你留下一个不太好的印象。 上面那张相片中右边那个穿红衣的人就在非常“热情”地帮我们搬行李，我一下子没看到，表哥在行李车旁又无法与他沟通，居然给他搬了一半下来，最后我过去告诉他“我们非常感谢你的帮助，但是我们自己可以搬得动这些背包”，这样才把他支走。 尼泊尔的车号牌都是写的尼国文，数字都不是国际通用的阿拉伯数字，一个都看不懂。这台丰田车好象是14座的，里面非常宽敞，坐起来非常舒服。由于行李太多，我们没搭上重庆MM的其他朋友，只是把她带上一起到了泰米尔区。原计划我们是住重庆味的，由于没有预订去到那客满，只好叫王龙带我们去其他地方找客栈了。而重庆MM事先已经定好了客栈，就在重庆味门口与我们分开了，可惜留了联系方式给她，却一直没收到她的任何信息。 其实要找客栈也没那么容易，没兑换好尼币怎么开房呢？叫王龙问了一下他哥哥开的那个货币兑换店的兑换比率是1：14.2，官方价格只是13元多一点，大家简单沟通了一下觉得可以接受就到了那里开始兑换。每人兑换了2500元人民币，就是35500元卢比。另外每人付了王龙1670元人民币的卢卡拉来回机票费用，之前说准备用美金支付的，算了一下用人民币支付还要合算，无形中好象又便宜了二三十元人民币（找航空公司订是270美金，找王龙订是265美金，但是他可以收人民币。飞卢卡拉那条线路的航空公司是新西兰的公司，那外国公司只收美金）。 手抓着35500元尼币，开始还是有点开心的。等到了卢卡拉开始徒步后花钱象流水，每天成千上万那样地支出，最多一天支出过2万多，这心痛得.......。 我们在兑换尼币，农夫和大羽在里面开始找地方玩了。 兑换好尼币去找住宿的地方了，有尼币傍身，心安好多，虽然负重但走起路来还是腰杆挺得直直的。加都泰米尔的街道不是很宽，显得非常杂乱无章。 清一色的英文招牌，看到有中文招牌的地方多数都是中国人在那开的档口，一般是以饮食和住宿为主。 卖面具和工艺品的店铺。看上去好象全部是手工打造的。 不知名的花。 加都市区很多地方都看到这种花。 开始找了一家客栈，房间不够，另外找了一家，居然来到了攻略中提及的Blue Diamond Hotel（电话977-1-4226907，4222270，4242533。双人普间800RS/间，有卫生间，太阳能热水）。 加都的住宿登记不象中国国内那样严格（不知道其他客栈是否也如此，徒步完回到加都后我们还是回这住），7个人开房只登记一个人的资料就行了，不收押金，而且也不核对你的护照，直接把四个房的房费付好就行了。 很特别的客房钥匙，完全就是一块铜牌。 房间的设施看起来比较简陋，但也不是非常差。 安置好住宿的地方，大家出去找手机铺开手机卡了。 精湛的工艺，全是手工打造的。 路边停着的人力三轮车。 广告牌？ 加都街上，蓝紫色的花不知道在什么树上长着? 受出发前做的功略影响，一直认为Ntc的卡在尼泊尔的信号比较好，所以一直叫王龙带我们去找Ntc的营业厅。由于开始兑换尼币、开房浪费了不少时间，出去找Ntc的营业厅时都傍晚18点了，人家都下班了。 最后只好找到这家Ncell的Shop，而且这张相片上的尼泊尔姐姐？妹妹？查了一下说Ncell的卡只是在卢卡拉有信号，再进去就没信号了。一米由于要跟家里报平安，也管不了这么多，就在这花了100RS办了张手机卡，另外又充了200RS进去。结果这张卡伴着我们走完全程，回加都之前在卢卡拉给了无忧和唐建用。我、农夫和大羽在徒步第二天到南池时每人花700RS高价买了三张Ncell的卡来用（用护照去开的手机卡在注有效期结束后卡也自动失效了，我们三个人买的高价卡应该是没有期限的，下次有哪位同学要去尼泊尔可以问我借手机卡）。而心急的孤雁在客栈第二天早上花800RS向一个本地人买了一张Ntc的卡，但自从飞离加都后就没有信号了，我都怀疑他买的这张Ntc卡是不是中国国内的小灵通之类的手机卡？ 走在加都街上。 加都王宫。 关于尼泊尔和加都王宫尼泊尔的统一（1769~1815） 廓匀尔喀王国普里特维.纳拉扬.沙阿（1722~1775）以生活在廓尔喀周围的民众为主，组织起了一支前所未有的强悍军队，很快就攻克了加德满都河谷，统一了尼瓦匀诸王国。1768年9月26日，廓尔喀军队开进了加德满都。活女神库玛莉以一袭红装主持了仪式，为征服者祝福。随后，帕坦、巴德冈相继被攻克。 普里特维.纳拉扬.沙阿的继承者们继续向四处扩张，并将战火烧向了西藏。1792年，中国皇帝派大军征讨，廓尔喀人被迫求和。 廓尔喀人向西的征战一直打到了克什米尔边上。1814年，英国人——印度的殖民者决定阻止这种惊人的扩张，他们以5支部队，共计46000人攻打尼泊尔。一个将军在初战中丧生，另外两个被打得落花流水。在第四次战役以后，廓尔喀士兵声名大震，于是英国人决定招募他们他们为雇佣军。1816年，英军对加德满都大举进攻，迫使他们定了和约，确定了现今的尼泊尔边界。 普里特维.纳拉扬.沙阿的后代缺乏智慧，他的孙子拉纳.巴哈杜尔迷上了一个婆罗门年轻的寡妇。他钟爱的人去世后，他用排泄物玷污了王室的保护神，不久便逃到了印度。于是，尼泊尔王位又落到了幼童身上，由摄政王行使职权。 拉纳政府统治下的尼泊尔（1846~1951） 1846年，忠格.巴哈尔.拉纳发动政变，夺取了军政实权，自封为首相，并使其为拉纳家族所世袭。大权在在握的拉纳进行了一些改革，使尼泊尔向现代化迈出了一步。出于好奇，他于1850~1851年间访问了欧洲。他是第一们违背了宗教禁忌，冒险到食牛国中去参观的印度教王爷。1857年，他在要将英国人驱逐出印度的冲突中向英国人提供了决定性的军事援助。为此，尼泊尔的领土又扩大至山脉南部的平原地带——泰拉伊平原。 为了避免尼泊尔被殖民化，拉纳家庭允许英国人招募廓尔喀雇佣军，他们成为了印度最精锐的部队。尼泊尔尽力阻止与外界的联系，在很长的一段时间内都不允许游客入内。拉纳家族在王国内实行了独裁统治。他们将所获钱财用于建造受新古典主义影响的巴洛克风格宫殿。 妻，情妇及女佣们为拉纳家庭留下了众多的后代，直到1901~1929年间，桑德拉.桑塞尔才个奇特的大家庭有了点秩序。由于拉纳家族的相位传袭是按兄弟长序，以避免王室的摄政，他对继位人普查，将其分作A.B.C.D四档。他还是第一个获得了学位的首相。他废除了奴隶制，并让人建造了一个发电站，为皇家宫殿照明。 拉纳家族的专制统治结束于第二次世界大战后不久，在二战中，有20万廓尔喀士兵参战。1951年，特里布万里——普里特维红领巾拉扬沙阿的继承者——使尼泊尔进入了20世纪。 沙阿王朝重返尼泊尔（1951~1990） 英国人离开印度后，拉纳家族失去了主要盟友，而一个反对党——以印度国大党为蓝本的尼泊尔大会党在印度的加尔各尔答成立。尼泊尔大会党联合国王势力准备拉纳交出权利。拉纳家族自然不会轻易就范，于是扬语言要杀死国王特里布万，派兵包围王宫，威胁要杀死所有的王室成员。在此紧要关头，特里布万国王逃到印度，经过短暂的军事冲突后，在印度政府的调解下，拉纳家族交出政权，国王颁布了临时宪法。 1955年，马亨德拉继承了尼泊尔王位。1959年举行了尼泊兆头历史上第一次大选，大会党取胜组阁。1960年12月，马亨德拉国王以政府不稳定，人民担心尼泊尔被兼并入印度为借口，下解散了内阁。大会党领袖或被捕，或被迫逃到印度。1962年，国王建立了一党制——评议制度。此制度持续了28年。 被称为喜马拉牙雅山区“铁托”的马亨德拉国王成功地保住了尼泊尔的独立。他修建了从加德满都到中国边界的公路。利用尼泊尔在世界上的特有魅力，他获得了大部分国家的援助计划。 由于星象原因，他的儿子比兰德拉在他父亲去世后3年年，即1975年才正式加冕尼泊尔国王。新国王比其父温和，接受的是西方教育，他多次调整政体，以确保尼泊尔国家的独立，并延缓了一党制的垮台。他宣布尼泊尔为和平地区，他本人也获得了世界各国的好感。 在国内，反对派始终要求废除一党制。1979年，比兰德拉国王全民公决，以平息大学生骚动。但55%的投票人表示仅要求对评议会制度进行改革。10年后，甘地再也无法忍受沙阿王室的傲慢，对尼泊尔贸易封锁。反对派利用尼泊尔人对物质匮乏的不满，发起了民主运动。在柏林墙倒塌的同一年，人群走上了街头。1990年4月3日，当军队向逼近王宫的示威群众开枪，造成至少45人死伤时，危机达到了顶点。当天晚上，比兰德拉国王宣布废除评议会制度，实行多党制。 尼泊尔与民主（1990~） 根据尼泊尔的新宪法，国王成为武装部队统帅中，并行使某些特别权力。1991年，尼泊尔大会党在立法选举中获得多数票，但在马亨德拉国王统治下获得选举胜利的这个老牌社会民主党遇到了新的竞争对手——尼泊尔**组织起了众多的反对派。在吉里贾.普拉萨德.柯依拉腊任首相后，大会党陷入了领袖纷争之中。 提前举行的立法选举未能使政府走出困境，多数派未能形成。1994年12月，国王任命工产党领袖迪卡里组阁。尼泊尔大会党在作了几个月的在野党之后，意识到了不团结的危害，又怕**利用国家机器加强本党的基础。阿迪卡里请求解散议会，提前选举，但最高法院拒绝了，而一项不信任案使尼政府于1995年9月下了台。大会党新领袖尔.巴岶组成了联合政府，使旧的评议继承者们又重新回到了政治舞台。 尼泊尔皇宫灭门惨案（2001） 加德满都2001年6月1日晚11时左右，尼泊尔国王比兰德拉和王后艾什瓦尔雅按照惯例，与王室成员一起在纳拉扬希蒂王宫共进晚餐席间，由于在王储择偶问上发生分歧，29岁的王储迪彭德随即自杀，后被紧急送附近的军方医院进行抢救，但于3日夜去世。众多王室去世使得整个王室几乎陷入灭顶之灾。 据报道，王储要娶的那个女孩儿是纳家族的一名前大臣的长女。拉纳家族过去曾统治过尼泊尔。但比兰德拉国王阿家族，而近两个世纪以来，沙阿家族和拉纳家族一直在争夺王位。一些专家说，正是这两大家族之间的敌对关系，使得国王反对这门亲事。 惨剧发生时，比兰德国王的大弟弟，现年54岁的贾南德拉正在博克拉宫度假，因而幸免于难。他紧急赶回首都，并于6月4日加冕，继任尼泊尔国王。 这个皇宫除周二外，其他时间都是开放的。本地人凭证件进入不知道是否免费，中国人凭护照购票是250RS，其他国家的游客要多少？我们几人从卢卡拉飞回后那天下午就进去逛了，但是不能带相机进去，里面禁止拍照。 那个红红招牌的地方是尼泊尔的教育部，图片右边马路边就是王宫。右边这条路一直进去可以到达中国驻尼泊尔大使馆，原计划有时间想去大使馆拜访一下的，可惜时间实在是太紧了。其实出国前也做好了没时间去拜访的准备，整理了一份信函准备到了加都发传真过去报备一下，结果到最后连传真都没发（没找到可以发传真的地方，王龙的办公室也没有传真机）。 这封信函我一直放在腰包里，同行的队友都不知道我做了这个工作。其实这个工作真正是要去大使馆拜访报备的，至少也要打个电话去，发传真只是备用计划，到最后连传真都没发过去，这会不会是对我国驻尼泊尔大使馆的工作没有给予支持？ 中国驻尼泊尔大使馆联系信息：地址：BALUWATAR KATHMANDU NEPAL。电话 977－1－4411740（办公室）4416485（政治处）4415383（文化处）4419053（证处）。 传真 4414045。 网址：www.chinaembassy.org.np (英文) 在加都，稍微大一点的路口有持枪的警察站岗。这个男人的头功非常不错，佩服啊。 难得一见的大众车，在这边都是高档车了，16号回加都那天还在街上看到一辆陆虎。 王龙的办公室由此进。（为人民币服务） 王龙办公室街对面有卖地图的商店。你可以在这里买到全部与尼泊尔徒步旅游等相关的地图，注意要与老板砍价，至少得砍个四分之一吧，不会英语就用计算器来砍，要不用肢体语言也行。 办好电话卡，去王龙的办公室坐了一会，然后叫王龙带我们去吃中国菜。在加都的中国餐饮似乎都是川菜：成都饭店、重庆味、满堂红川菜馆，没见到有粤菜馆。 酒很醇正，应该不是假酒，当然价格也不菲，花了我2000多尼币，差不多200元人民币吧。这一桌饭菜的价格还不算太高，3040尼币，折合人民币不到27元一个人。 我们响应号召，把光盘行动带到了尼泊尔，从5月1日开始一直到5月17日离开加都我们都坚持着。 吃完晚饭一路逛回去客栈，一米姐走最后差点走丢了。出了成都饭店她在后面照相，我们走在前面向左拐进了巷子，走了一半路点人数突然发现不见了她，我赶紧往回走去找她，正好找得及时，她刚刚经过那个巷子的路口往前直走，要是迟点就不知道要去哪找她了。([]

There are many like-minded asking me about it. I now present this thread to briefly tell everybody about my journey.The starting point of this traverse was from the highest peak of the western part of the Tibetan plateau, Jieshan Daban, and the day was April 20, 2010.I was heading eastward passing Bungdag Co, Yanghu Co, Rola Co, and Kangzhagri Mountain, which crossed over the desolate region from west to east. The journey continued northward to enter the unpopulated area of Altun Mountains, through Hoh Xil Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, Whale lake, ..., finally met some people by the Aqqikkol Hu and then arrived in Huatugou by vehicle three days later and that day was July 5. It had been 77 days in total. I had been all alone 74 days after leaving Jieshan Daban until arriving inAqqikkol Hu, which was about 1400km and about four months.[The Great Chang Tang] In Tibetan, "Chang Tang" means northern empty wilderness while narrowly, means unpopulated region in northern part of Tibet. However, it actually indiCATes all of the no man's land in northern. The great Chang Tang includes desolate places in Northern Tibet, Hoh Xil, Alun Mountains, and Kunlun Mountains, which are interconnected to form the unique and super empty wilderness in the world. Only because Hoh Xil is the most known name, most people just think this vast land is equivalent to Hoh Xil. In reality, Hoh Xil is only a small piece of the Great Chang Tang both administratively and geologically. The Great Chang Tang, the last land to chase your freedom and dream.The route that I traversed ForeplayI arrived in Tibet in the early March, a couple of troubles bothered me. The brand new plug got its positive and negative wrongly connected; the rivets of my rucksack eASIly got broken from now and again; and a multi-functional charger got damaged and so on. Riding my bike to Ngari for warming up of this journey, lost my rucksack but later got it back; lost my camera bag and got it back later again, and finally lost a big bicycle pannier in the street of Gyangze town under the eyes of police, including clothes, solar panel and so on.Without much choice, I returned to Lhasa to adjust all the stuff I would need in the wilderness. Then I begged some luck by going to Nyingchi to enjoy the blossoms of peach trees and to take a hot spring bath. I even had the privilege to enjoy time with ten girls in the hot spring. I felt my bad luck had all gone and then returned to Lhasa again to prepare going to Ngari. I did not expect that I was cheated on by some hustler and lost some money and delayed my schedule for a week. I had to find a car myself quickly to Nagri. However, I lost the tool for fast-parting my rear wheel on my way to Nagri, where was a remote area in Tibet and nowhere to buy the tool. Even if there was one in Lhasa it would take at least ten days for a special delivery service. I was lucky that my mate Duola asked a driver to bring the tool for me from Lhasa. I thought there should be no more nightmare like this but the nozzle of my brand new multi-fuel stove was broken. The next day I tried everywhere to weld them back together. The first three shops could not do the welding for copper. The fourth one said they could do it but could not guarantee a sUCCess. The engineer said it would be ten Chinese yuans if it was a success. I agreed. Just in seconds, my nozzle became crap in a flash of lightening. I was so upset. Again, Duola helped me by bringing her own MSR oil stove and Dingding's sleeping bag to Nagri. That was already April 16 and I did not have much time to waste. The following day I found a vehicle heading to Jieshan Daban.The sand storm over Yarlung Zangbo RiverA lonely peach tree blossoming in Yarlung Zangbo Grand CanyonNatural hot spring in wild, me singing and drinking (photo by a friend of mine) Day 1(April 20), 16km, Camping 5192mIt was a truck with a full load of iron wastes, arriving in Jieshan Daban at 6'o clock in the morning. It was still night and extremely cold and dark. Driver was not bothered to pop his head out of the driving cab. I climbed up on the top of the iron wastes, taking my bicycle down. In a hurry, I punched my old water bag. Fortunately I had another MSR water bag given by a friend of mine otherwise I would definitely fail without even starting my journey. For the first time for me to set up the brand new tent in strong, cold winds. It would be impossible to do so if the tent was not a whole piece. Extremely cold outside, about -15C, might be lower than that, I put my head into the sleeping bag but was nearly suffocated to death, honestly. The smell of Dingding's sleeping bag was, lol, so extraordinary. I woke up around 11 o'clock. There were still strong winds outside so that I had to use my bodyweight to keep the tent in place. At the time when I just started to cook and eat, four patrolling soldiers approached me. To their surprise someone, in this season, camped in Jieshan Daban. I was so nervous and afraid they were the people to block my journey because I was caught and deported from the desolate land last year. Luckily the four soldiers did not know my destination and were very kind to me. After they left, I immediately packed my stuff and pushed my bike into the depths of the unpopulated area just in case anything unexpected happened.The bike was very heavy due to the provisions and hard to control. There was even a quite small hill that I had to remove my bike panniers to get over it. This really struck me because this happened even the path was still the hardship one at the moment and I could not imagine what I would do once I entered the uncertain, endless wilderness. Until now I had not met anyone, even the nomadic pastoralists. I remembered there were quite a few of them roaming at the edge of the northern Tibetan plateau last year. All of these indicated it was not the good pasture season in such low temperature and strong winds. Around 16km there was a sheep cote, where I passed it last year, east of Lungmu Co. I was exhausted at this point so that I decided to camp in here and to rest my head. After arranging tent everything I went out to look for the wetland discovered by Duola and Liumeng last year. I was determined to find it.There were many hot springs in the wetland which were underground water with a constant temperature. The wetland therefore became an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such harsh weather, which was the very unique land feature of terrain in this over 5200m highland.Perpetual snow in the valley blown to corn shape by strong windsThis wetland was discovered by Duola and Liumeng. The workers at a nearby mine did not know it and I too missed it last yearUnderground water with a constant temperature, an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such icy weather 感谢大伙儿支持和加分，不一一回复了。特别感谢多啦，希望能有机会一起喝酒吃肉。 Day 2 (April 21), 0km, Camping5192mBlustering gale all night, up and down like ocean waves. The next day rather than continuing to travel, I stayed inside the sheep cote, hesitating and pondering over. Indeed, there were so many problems before this journey;I did not have sufficient physical preparation;the load had already reached its limitation; I still coughed a lot;the weather was so extreme and cold. All in all, I did not think this journey was well prepared and I did not have confidence in completing this journey mentally and physically. To do, or not to do, it was the question. Similarly I did not have confidence in my facilities, not knowing whether all of them would work functionally or not. The fact was one of the rivets got broken again and the front rack came loose. In the afternoon, I replaced all the rivets of the panniers with screws I had prepared before. This was an excellent job I had done which gave me no further troubles throughout my whole journey. I also re-adjusted the front rack. However I did not think it would definitely all right because I did not have a tool to do it. When the darkness descended,I made up my mind to continue my journey, which, of course, was not beyond any imagination. Orchid-like weedsSmall springs everywhere, clear and chillyA thin layer of ice covering the fresh spring water The sheep cote, it was the door under the sleeping bag, which was in the same place as last year, everything looked like yesterdayThe wetland at duskLungmu Co at dusk. You could hear the gigantic sound of wind if the picture had a sound Day 3 (April 22), 52.4km, Camping 5145mGot up in the morning, could not put everything into the bags. Without much choice I had to throw away three portions of tsampa, elbow pads, and crampons. Following the road of the lead-zinicmine I found the side path to enter the wilderness, which was on the riverbed and very hard to see. I missed this side path last year so that I had to take a short cut into the wilderness directly then. That was why I had taken extra care to find the side path. The following journey was to get over a big hill, which lay 5275m above sea level and was the highest point of my whole journey. Around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I passed the side path leading to Orba Co and started a journey which was complete strange to me. I ate a piece of pilot breads, which was frozen like rocks so that I had to use my spade to crush it. At 6 o'clock in the evening, I had pushed plus rode my bicycle for about 32 km. I reckoned I should have been able to double this if I did no carry such heavy load. The wind became stronger and stronger. I opened the parasail kits and tested it. The result was far beyond what I expected. With the aid of the strong wind I was just like flying over the wilderness. After 8 o'clock in the evening, I started to observe the water Source and to get ready to camp. Map showed there were successive springs along the path and assembled to puddles. But I had overestimated the water source here in this land and in this season there were endless wilderness inside the valley, where I could not see a single drop of water. As it became darker and darker, I felt a little bit nervous which resulted in three spokes of the parasail broken and became a useless rubbish. Anyway, it helped me to move forward 20km more which benefited me a lot later on. When time approached 9.30 pm, it was almost completely dark. I had to lie my bike on the ground and went on to try to find water on the north side of the valley. This was a wide and flat sandy land, where I could not see any ditches there and further was complete darkness. I returned to get my GPS to look up the contours and found the south part of the valley was closer to a hill so I took the way. Finally I found a piece of ice in a ditch. I smashed about 20litre of ice. The ice was quite shallow scattered with sheep poo. On my way back, my eyes were hurt by strong winds, which got me a couple of days to recover. It was nearly 23 o'clock after I set up the tent. It also took about 40 mins to melt the ice. I was so tired and my appetite was completely spoiled. I then had a little bit of milk. I had never expected thing would go like this, it was so distressing. Streams along the path, ice everywhereThe river flew into Matou Hu, in whose north part there was a satellite lake, a wonderful ice-skating court It took 40mins to melt the ice in midnight Day 4 (April 23), 31km, Camping 5028mA cloudy day with gusts. From now and again, hails chased me from behind. Sunny spell. Heavy sandy land made me have to push my bike. At 3pm, I arrived at Luxing Hu, where there was a house made of clay. This was the last permanent building of my journey. Last year, Duola and Liumeng once lived in this house for three days without meeting anybody. It seemed it was the same but the truck parking in front of the house made me worry about. I went to the sheep cote first to check over, where there were only a few lambs following me everywhere I went later on. This made me feel warm in my heart. I observed farther places using my binoculars but could not see any people or sheeps. After making sure there were no people around I opened the locked door using a screwdriver. The living room was very clean. There were two boxes of beverages on the ground and a string of cured lamb legs hanging over in the interior room. A pot of water was on the top of the stove, lukewarm, which indicated the host must be not far away from his home. I filled up my water bag and left the house. I also put the screws back to the door in order not to leave any trace of my visiting. I then took a spanner from the toolbox of the truck, which gave me great help for the rest of the journey.I left the house as quickly as possible. After last year's experience, the nomadic pastoralists were the last people I wanted to meet. A few hundred meters away from the house, the vehicle traces were fading fast. Even downhill, I had to push rather than to ride because of the heavy loose sand. From the route point of view, only after Luxing Hu it was the real unpopulated land. After many days, I thought of the lamb legs from time to time. It was pity that I then had plenty of provisions and the bike was too heavy to carry anything more. Continue to melt the ice under the morning sunshine, all of the sheep poo had been removed carefullyCamping site, the little hill over there was the place where I got the ice last nightThe house by the Luxing Hu, empty, the last permanent building I saw throughout my journeyDay 5 (April 24), 19.8km, Camping 4951mSet off at 10.30 in the morning, the weather was similar to yesterday. Probably this road was the high plain or somewhere the wind passed so that it was so windy. The average wind speed was degree 6 but could reach degree 9 in the blick of an eye. The road was still full of sand and very heavy to walk on it. My eyes became worse under such harsh weather. About three o'clock in the afternoon, I saw something in my right, looked like antenna. I went closer to see what it was and found out it was an iron tower (the triangulation station). In 1970s, a joint team from Chinese three military regiments entered this area doing research. They have left a lot of triangulation stations and benchmarks, which I had the priviledge to see them today.At dusk, I approached to a spring by the Bungdag Co, which flew into the frozon lake. The sand and soil, brought by the strong wind, scattered on the surface of the ice all over the lake. There were so many cracks around the icey surface of the lake. I geussed it must be caused by the springs under the water rather than by melted ice. In the west of the Bungdag Co was the side path leading to Keriya Pass, where a SUV could reach directly. I had looked out any vehicle Tracks but failed. The cloudy sky started to snow. I set up the tent comfortably because I knew that I was safe having such a sweet spring beside me.Triangulation station erected by scientists from the joint research team on Chang Tang of three military regiments in 1971[size=+0]The gap between water and ice in Bungdag Co, I guessed there must be some springs under the lakeThe storm just above the ground, a chaotic darkness[size=+0]Icy Bungdag Co,one of the four biggest lakes in Northern Tibet, wild ducks flying over this vastness and lonenessSnowing at any time, should not happen so frequently like this in this seasonDay 6 (April 25), 4.3km, Camping 5002mWeathering landforms everywhere around this area. Spongy volcanic rocks could be found easily. I pushed my bike turning around a small hill, seeing a big river, the Yinshui He, flowing from Orba Co into Bungdag Co, which I had been to its upstream last year. It was also a passage for animal migration. The downstream of the river was extremely wide and broad. The thickess of the ice layer could reach one meter with the main stem in the middle course of the river, very deep. There were a few springs along the river, sweet and clear.I only went forward a little bit more than 4km but I had walked more than 20km for finding my way. It was not possible to cross the main stem, let alone the north bank of Bungdad Co. What I could only do was to try to find a shallow place to cross. But the southern area was a even larger piece of wetland and forced the road turn towards west. I spent a couple of hours but failed to find a good point to cross the river. In the afternoon, I decided to follow the edge of the wetland. When I reached the hill foot, the wetland finally disappeared. Around this area, there were clearly volcanic feature of terrain and I even found traces of pasturing and cairns made from volcanic rock.Here was the last pasturing trace I found throughout my journey, I guessed it was a summer pasture area. After this, there was no clear sign of human activities in this vast wilderness. I had been looking for my ways until it was dark. I made up my mind where to go TOMOrrow. The terrain here looked like Yardang landforms, as well as volcanic landforms The Yinshui He river from Orba CoSprings scattered all over the river bank, painted green by lovely algaeThe river was very deep. The mixture of green and amber colour showed the sand and mud carried by the melted iceThick layer of ice, sunken surface caused by strong gustsThe south course of the Yinshui He, countless small streams. To the right was the wetlandLooking for ways in the east, a trace of pasturing and the cairn made from spongy volcanic rocksMy camp, opposite to the hillDay 7 (April 26), 11km, Camping 5009mI moved forward to the direction I found yesterday, turning around the wetland and walking toward east. At 2pm, I was blocked by the zigzag Yinshui He again and I had no choice but to cross it. The river was about 700m wide, covered by ice which appeared very different. The hanging ice, the folding ice, the piling-up ice, the icy puddle, and the sleet were everywhere along the river bank. Having noticed all of these, I reckoned the river would be receding at dusk, which was why there were so many different shapes and forms of ice. I put my slipper on, going into the main stream of the river. I found there were at least three different courses of the river, the thickness of the surface ice varied and the river water reached above my knees. I sighed there would be no way back once I crossed this river. There are many ways in one's life too, you can only take it once and you will no long have the courage to repeat it.I pushed the bike crossing the river. Some of the ice was a bit soft, jamming the tyres so that I had to use my feet to break them first. Some of the ice was a bit thick but with half-melted underneath, sticking the the bike completely, some of the ice was half-water half-ice with a sandy riverbed, which was really hard to pass. I had to remove all of the panniers at the last stage of the crossing. I spent the whole four hours to cross the river, my legs got many bloody cuts. At 6pm, the surface ice was almost disappeared completely, the river level rapidly rising to a chaotic status. I thought if I hesitated a little bit at that time, I could not have the courage to cross this river under such circumstances. The river bank was unimaginably sandy and was quite steep. I had to unloaded the panniers again to reach the top of the bank. By the time of sunset, the weather became exceptionally good. The sunlight from the descending sun, the blue sky, the faint moon, .... I liked such a colorful and peaceful Chang Tang and very much enjoyed my camp and myself bathed in such beautiful colour.The ice like this was very thin and suspended, far away from the main stemHard surface with half-melted underneath, the soft sand at the botton was most scaryThe ice like this could easily jam the wheels, hard to get it outI had to unload the panniersChaotic water and terrible hails turned up in no timeThe Chang Tang at the moment liked it used to be,a mixture of cold and warm tones under the golden setting sun Day 8 (April 27), 14.6km, Camping 5112mLast night, I forgot to bring in the odometer, which was out of order due to the coldness in midnight. Since then I used GPS to check the mileage. The digital thermometer was no longer working. I had to use mercury thermometer to collect data. Night temperatures were basically between –15℃—–20℃ while the temperature inside my tent was about –10℃. The advantage of the integrated tent was that it limited the ventilation so to keep warm inside. However, it got clearly disadvantage of heavy condensation and dew. Every morning, there was plenty of frost inside the tent so that I had to put my hood on First Before fully getting dressed. The winds in Chang Tang finally became consistent with the pattern I had researched the other day no or very tiny wind in the morning, strong wind started after 2pm, and then at around 8pm its strength was reduced again. The accuracy of this prediction was about 80%.The road was very bad today. I walked whole afternoon in an ancient riverbed and it was so difficult that I had to use all of my strengths to move a small step forward and then to stop to breath, slower than a snail. After five hours' struggling, my eyes got wet when I saw the grassy river bank. Finally! The nightmare was over.Cold and clear morningHeavy morning condensation in the interior, a lot of frost to clearSuch dawning sunlight indicated a cloudy day ahead Day 9 (April 28), 18km, 5072mIn the morning I entered a range of sandy roads which were so terrible. The solar panel specially designed for GPS got short circuited. After checking it was found to be the diode got damaged. Luckily I got a replacement. Because the GPS was exclusively supplied by a solar panel so that it was no longer a problem for the power supplement of GPS. In a period of 70 days, I did replace the battery once, which saved me a lot of alkaline batteries. I did have another solar panel of 5.4 W which was used specifically for 7.5V Camera, DV and other digital facilities. Unlike water, I had never been short of power.At 7pm in the evening, I arrived at Pur Co. The surface of this lake was very odd the ice by the river bank rose and the river bank was broken, I reckoned that was due to the strong winds. The ice there was mingled with something yellow, could be the stain of alkali. There were many wild yaks on the other side of the lake. There could be two brown bears but I could not be for certain. On the east side of the lake, there was a peninsula leading to the centre of the lake. I camped just opposite to the peninsula. At night , I smashed the ice to get drinking water, which tasted alkali. For the first time I cooked the cereals, which was brought completely by accident. This was just because I found there was a little bit of extra space when I was in Nagri packing the stuff for this journey so that I bought two packs of cereals. It tasted disgusting, probably there was too much alkali in the water. I threw away half of it. Later I realised that probably I subconsciously felt that the provisions was so heavy. I would rather make it lighter at any cost.Dry all my stuff in the morning sun, a routine matterA faint dusk in Pur CoThe river bank pushed up by ice and opened like zipper by gustsThe pushed up surface of the iceThe place where I got my drinking water, a thin layer of ice behind the ablation corns The moment just before sun set, glittering Pur Co, nothing was the same差点儿没找到俺自己的帖子，原来变色了。多谢各位鼓励。 Day 10 (April 29), 16km, Camping 5141mIn the morning, I walked around the north bank of the Pur Co， where it were continuous ups and downs sprinkled with light yellow sprouts across the sparse grassland. The wild yaks clustered into small groups. All of a sudden, there was a group of five of them running towards me, blowing a huge cloud of dust with the power of thunderbolts,I believed that anyone who did not know the characters of the wild yaks must be frightened to death under such circumstances. The fact was the wild yaks in groups never injured people. Rushing to you just to show you its territory. When they approached people at certain distance, they would turn sharply and run away, and then stopped somewhere high to stare at you. You can not imagine that the wild yaks were very cautious animals compared with its almost one ton of weight. Their first reaction, when meeting people, was to raise their tails, the front hooves rubbing against the ground, the horns pointing forward, the eyes redden, and the long body hair shaking, all of which showed their determination to fight.This was the warning sign that you should retreat. However, you should realise that this was only a gesture that they were afraid of you and wanted to scare you away. The thing was that if you were not afraid of them and moved forward, they would run away in no time. There were only some mad yaks attacking people, which was really rare to happen. In Chang Tang, an experienced driver know that it is very dangerous to pass directly from two or three lonely wild yaks. They always tried to avoid confronting them directly. If this was not possible, they would lit a cigarette, smoking, to wait until the yaks walked away themselves. This was because the wild yaks really could attack vehicles, which was not completely rumors. I once asked them why I had not been attacked. They told me that because my bike was so small they would not be bothered to attack it. My own experience was that approaching a wild yak very slowly, do not look into its eyes, and ignored what it was doing. As long as it moved forward a little bit, just stop and give the yaks a little bit of time to think. Because if you forced the yak, it could be themost dangerous animal in the world and nothing could stop them killing. Even a gunshot could not kill it but only left a small hole in its skin. In the past, the nomads living near this land would use yaks' skin as chopping board which was very much endurable. At noon, I lost my balacLAVA, which was brand new and I had never used it once. I could not be bothered to go back tofind it. This resulted in that I had to have my fleece hat day and night in the rest of my journey, which did not provide fully protection from the sun in the plateau. But somehow I was all right, perhaps because my skin is similar to those of yaks, lol. At around half past one, I found a deserted Jeep, upside down. I felt it could be there for years and it could be the vehicle of someillegal HUNTERs. Nowadays, we have wildlife conservation reserves in Chang Tang and the animals here are well protected. However, some people kills the wild yaks to sell them as the domestic yak's meat. In general, it is worth 10,000 Chinese yuans for a single wild yak. Therefore many people take the risk to make money. They often enter the unpopulated areas to hunt and their activities can reach 200 km in diameter. This is why the wild yaks in the deep wilderness are less afraid of people than thoseat the boundaries of the Chang Tang region.There once happened that a wild yak mother revenged its baby's murder in the Altun mountains. Its horns pierced the killer's chest and held his body over its head for more than ten days, which was very touching.Around 3pm, I walked out of the Pur basin. The next point was Hong Shan Daban and then it was the Yueya Hu by the Toze Gangri. At this time I found a vehicle track from south to north. I checked over but could not find the way where they had gone. I took my map, GPS, and compass, climbing up a small hill to estimate the location of Hong Shan Daban. The mountain was very round and it was hard to find the mountain pass. After determining the location of the Daban, I moved straightforward. When I passed a messy grassland, I saw something that I was reluctant to see more than hundreds of wild yaks' head scattered all over, which was definitely the scene of the illegal hunting. After that it was a very long ancient river bed with soft sand slowly rising until the foot of the mountain.There are some spines on the surface of the tongues of wild yaks, which are used by nomads in this area as combs. They use them from their teens to the time when their hair becomes silver.The deserted Jeep, could be left by illegal hunters years agoThe slaughtered wild yaks with the wheel size heads. Some of the skulls were chopped into half. Why was that? Could be taken away for making combs?My camp at the foot of the Daban underthe lingering golden rays of the setting sun. Tomorrow's weather must be wonderful, I reckoned Day 11(April 30)， 20.4km, Camping 5120mThe surface of the road leading to Hong Shan Daban was very hard, most of them were small rocks, sort of gravels, plus a quite long downhill slope, I pushed my bike more than 20km for the first time after Luxing Hu. The mountain pass was quite flat, just like a broad ridge, it was 5256m above the sea level. Upon arriving at the pass, Toze Gangri of 6356m was in my sight clearly, very much round and there was no back bone like normal snow covered mountains. Most of the snow mountains in Chang Tang looked like this probably it was due to the geological movements. There were quite a few chirus or Tibetan antelopes in the valley but I was not interested in this kind of animals anymore after I witnessed a large scale of migration of such animals last year elsewhere.The herbivorous animals here are very quick to reach its original size of the population, such as wild yaks, chirus, Tibetan gazelle, pika, and marmot. When you go into the depths of the Chang Tang, you could hardly be surpised by the sudden appearance of the chirus because they are so common in here. At this time of year, the chirus have already male-female parted. You could see many pregnant female chirus but hardly see any males. According to recent research, Zonag Co is not the only lake for breeding. There are at least four of them in the whole Chang Tang. Zonag Co, Tuzi Hu, Heishi Beihu, and another lake I can not remember. I think there must be more than four of them and most of the populations do not migrant long way like most people used to think. They generally migrant from south to north between Central Mountains and Kunlun Mountains.The chirus looks very timid but are very curious about outside world. They are not really afraid of people, particularly in the depth of the Chang Tang. The nearest distance we can approach is about 30m. They just stare at you calmly and think who you are and why you move so slow. They would run in front of you. Look like they are afraid of you but the fact is they are playing with you. A man's own character shapes his fortune. This is of course suit for animals too. The chirus are the typical one. They have a super speed and a pair of sharp antlers. If they are crazy, three of them work together could easily kill a wolf. But as you might have known, their antlers are just for fighting to mate with females.Down the Daban there was a very steep and straight road, I tried to ride the bicycle but ended up with falling over. The front rack came loose and one of the pannier flew into valley. The foot of the mountain was the Yueya Hu covered by ice, which was alake full of heavy metal elements. Along the lake bank there were many stark rocks very much weathered, lining up just like castles or houses. This made me stop to investigate what they were from time to time, I did understand they were just rocks though but they were so real like the figures of real people. On of them even made me hide in a ditch, observing them again and again using my binoculars. There were also many black volcanic rocks. All in all, the features of this area were really unusual.Passed over the Yueya Hu, it was an endless ancient lake bed. What my GPS showed was this area was a big lake like tentacles. I looked around, it was endless wilderness without a piece of ice and a drop of water. Roughly, I estimated this lake bed was about 1200 square meters. I had to tell you that Chang Tang was a place where there was no high-resolution map. The marks in the map often were some kind of memory. Just like this ancient lake bed under my feet, may be it was full of water a few years ago. Who knows. Pushing the bike in such an endless lake bed was very easy to get lost. My mind was in a chaotic status too.The migration of the animals, photo taken last year The road rising up to the Daban, full of gravels, very hard, ideal for pushing your bikeThe Yueya Hu gazed at by the round and smooth Toze Gangri. At a glimpse, could you tell which was mountain, which was cloud?Ancient lake bed. The white stains were the alkali, look like ice. About wildlife (part 1)Declaration Personal experience for reference onlyDangerous wild animals and their threats to human beings are a ever-LASTING subject for those backpackers travelling in the wild.In Chang Tang, for example, there are two kinds of deadly animals, one is wolves and the other is brawn bears. As substitutes, wild yaks and crows might be dangerous to you in some circumstances that I will come back to this a little bit later on. As for how to protect yourself against these dangerous animals, I think the primary point is you do not try to hurt them because the emotions of human and animals are same instinctively. [Wolves]Throughout my journey, I met wolves a total of seven times, in which I confronted them five times. As you might have known that wolves have become more and more solitary animals, it is very rare they live in a large group nowadays. Please allow me off the point a little bit and talk about the ecological problems in Chang Tang. The problem is now not the decrease of the number of the chirus but the imbalance of the whole food chain, more specifically, the number of the animals on the higher trophic levels of the food chain has not yet reached its ideal level which results in this kind of imbalance. Particularly, the pikas and the marmots who have lost their predators rapidly expanse which results in the desertification of Chang Tang. As early as the middle of last century, wolves were the dominant predators in the vast wilderness. They became a threat not only to other preys but also nomads pasturing in this land. Therefore, the then government called on people to cull back the population of the wolves in Chang Tang, which resulted in the current situation directly. The last official record about wolves attacking humans was around 1970s, which happened in Bamaoqiongzong. A team of secientists was surrounded by a group of wolves and they had to shoot them using guns. Of course, at present in Chang Tang, wolves are absolutely lonely.In this traverse, the first time I encountered a pair of wolves, one of them staying in front of me pretending to attack me while the other staying behind me. This is the standard attacking strategy of wolves. First, you should not be nervous which can be easily detected by the predators. Second, you should not retreat even an inch because this means you are the prey rather than the predator. Do not make any large movement, of course you could take a picture if you feel safe to do so. You must look into its eyes for a few minutes or even half an hour. When the wolves can not work out who you are and consider you are not posing any danger to them, then they will leave. You should remember that wolves in this land do not lack of food and it is much easy for them to catch a pika than a human. Even if being hungry, they would evaluate how easy to get you done, What you need to do is to show them that you are not interested in them and you are not afraid of them at all, let alone to show your ID card to them. As for the wolves family, really, I have not heard for ages. If you really have an encounter with them and they have no other choice, then it definitely depends on your forture. In fact, for so many year, it has been very rare to happen that wolves kill human. But the rumours are still there, in particular, the road connecting Xinjiang and Tibet.The nearest encounter with a wolf throughout my journey, no conflict at all[Brown Bears]Brown bears are real dangerous animals to human. Every year there are some accidents happened in some regions of Xinjiang on the north side of Kunkun Mountains and steppes in Northern Tibet. More than that the bears could attack your house, smash your windows, and eat your sheep. Therefore, in Northern Tibet some local councils give subsidies to the pastorarists for compensating the losses due to the bears because they are not allow to fight back and kill the bears except their lives are in great danger. Once there was a nomad taught me a method to protect yourself from bears. He told me to pick up a stick to feed the bear and the bear thinks the stick is your hand which tastes disgusting. So the bear would leave. It was so funny but the reality is to find a stick in this vast wilderness is just like you win the lottery.Bears are omonivorous animal who are generally not interested in human flesh. You can find that in most of accidents, the bears did not eat any of the human flesh rather they just smashed them for kind of fun that we could not understand. For the reason why bears kill human, one explanation is the conflict between human and wildlife in this extreme ecological environment. The nomads invade the habitats of the bears, which results in these conflicts. On the other hand, it might be because bears have quite high IQ so that they think it is much easy to kill a sheep in the cote rather than to kill a pika in the wild.I have met bears five times in my traverse, in two cases we were very close to each other. I had even walked with one of them for quite a while, just like we had a date for a walk. The fact is it is not that terrible like you might imagine. The same rules for dealing with wolves apply to bears. Never provoke dangerous animals. A bear can run at a speed of 40km/h, do you think you can compete this in a highland 5,000m above sea level?However, there is a situation where it is really dangerous, that is the encounter. It is not easy to control your instinctive reaction to the external dangers. Last year once I turned around a hill, there was a bear just in front of me. The bear of course was frightened by me with its front legs holding up, waving in the air and roaring. At that time I sat on the ground, ignoring it. The bear then left in a few minutes. Chang Tang is a vast land so that this is not that easy to happen. But if it does happen, really only God can bless you.The nearest encounter with a bear throughout my journey. This bear disappeared in a herd of wild yaks, which I had tried hard to spot, really weird About wildlife (part 2)Declaration personal experience for reference only.[Wild Yaks]I have talked about quite a few, like in the post of Day10. I will no longer talk about it.This was the funniest encounter with a solitary wild yak, who did not warn me. If I sat down, it sat down too. If I moved forward, it stopped. Could not imagine what it was thinking about.[Crows]Crows are dangerous only when you fall unconscious in the wilderness. Of course they will be the first to taste your flesh in that case. Unlike their cousinsliving in urban areas, the crows in Chang Tang have a larger body like eagles. When they fly over your head, you could feel like it is a piece of cloud. They are scavengers but like fresh meat too. It once happened that a baby was killed by crows relentlessly, let alone the lambs got killed by them. Once a nomad asked me for fireworks to scare the crows away. (They are sacred birds not to be killed by human)It is easy to defend yourself against crows, that is to keep fighting, never fall in the wilderness.A short break attracted the crows. Of course, they were miscalculating this time, photo taken last year[Strategies Adopted]At the time when I met the four soldiers in Jieshan Daban, they said there were many dangerous animals in the Northern Tibet and asked me if I had brought a shotgun. I think if they knew that I would enter Chang Tang they would definitely check if I really have a shotgun. The so-called defence facilities I brought with me were the fireworks and pepper spray. I had never used them. The fireworks were ruined and thrown away when I crossed a river and I had never opened the pepper spray. I even had never thought about this when camping in the night. The reason was I did not feel the needs. During the day time whenever I met any animals I had never touched the knife I had brought. I did not have anything to defend myself when I walked out to investigate the route. The Chang Tang is really a vast area so as to be very easy to detect anything strange.By the way, you'd better to avoid mating season's animals because even tamed rabbits could be aggressive in mating season.The thing is even if you have a gun, it is not very much helpful when bears attack you. Therefore, your attitude is most important.I can tell you something. Dogs are more dangerous than these wild animals. I had been chased by Tibetan dogs, pounced on by dogs in mating season, also besieged by a group of dogs. I really feel it is more useful to know how to defend a dog.Declaration again The above experience is from Chang Tang only. Of course, the more you prepared, the better. Day 12 (May 1), 23.8km, Camping 5117mToday was May 1 -- the Labour Day, I had been walking in some lake area marked in the map but clearly dried up. The lake basin was flat and hard so that I even pushed my bike more than 20km. Let it be the special treat for my May Day. After midday it became cloudy with growing winds. Since the Yueya Hu that I passed yesterday, there were no big lakes until Yanghu Co (My route would be between Jianshui Hu and Bairab Co), there was even no light alkaline water to drink so I had to pay extra attention not to miss any possible drinking water supply to fill up my water bag. There were a few very small lakes but all were alkaline puddles which was very shallow, whose depth was no more than the length of a half-finger. These puddles were covered with a hard shell of the mixture of salt and ice which smelled stinking and decaying when getting closer, must be toxic water I supposed. On the shore of this type of small lakes it was muddy soil and very hard to get closer.There was no sign of tundra at all.It was almost half past six when I found some snow corns in a ditch, which was the only drinking water supply of the day. There was a thin layer of melted ice on the surface of the ground near the snow corn, which was very hard to collect and was contaminated by the alkali. The snow corn was the yet melted thick snow, which was shaped like a corn by wind. The snow was quite hard and dry,porous like ice. I crushed a few snow corns, putting them into the water bag.They would be my drinking water tonight. These snow corns were the only one in today's wilderness, I reckoned the reason why they were not melted like others was the soil underneath contained large amount of ice blocks which acted as a freezer.Very strong gale in the night, it was hard to bear the sound of the vibration of the tent. Small single tent was good in the sense that it would not be blown away as long as you stayed inside. But you had to be very careful to set up the tent. I once did not pay much attention when doing so, the tent was blown away by winds, and rolling over like a Giant lantern ... I ran after it, got it back, and was exhausted. In general, it is not possible to fix the tent completely using tent pegs because they were not very much effective like large tents. It was snowing around 23 o'clock, the winds were howling from north,then the falling snow flakes landed on my tent quietly, I finally felt at peace and fell asleep. The flat ancient lake basin, assisting me walking more than 20kmSmall lake en route, toxic waterSnow corns, the only drinking water supply today Day 13 (May 2), 0km, Camping 5117mWaking up in the morning and opening the tent, the heavy snow outside must be sent by the God to force me have a break for the May Day. After lying in for a while, getting up and walking on the snowy ground out I went to have a look around. As first sight there were a herd of chirus. They were plainly to be spotted because they looked like a clear black straight line in the while snow. I returned to get my camera and then followed them to take some pictures. But they were very much alert and kept a quite long distance from me. I felt they were a group of pregnant females, instinctively protecting themselves from any potential harm. I was no longer short of water, the snow gave me a precious supply of drinking water. The problem was that they were very petrol consuming. I tool 8.6 litre of petrol and the oil stove was Duola's MSR. The pot was of 1.5 litre, mainly for boiling water. After several days' experiments, I found that the liquid water needed 16mins and 14-15mins to boil in the morning and evening, respectively. For ice, it would take 35-40mins while for snow it took 45-50mins. Melting snow was a very time and petrol consuming process so if I had a choice between snow and light alkaline water, most of time I would go with the latter. Lying inside the tent, listening to musics,I smoked a cigarette while gazing at the more and more chirus around me. Because it was very cold I had been wearing my shoes all the time. Now I just put my bare feet under the warm sun for some fresh air. I found three cuts in my hands and one in my sole. The cuts were about 4cm in length, looked terrible but it was actually all right really. Half of my toes were injured by to much walking, quite painful. I fetched my medicine bag and found I only got four patches of plasters, a serious mistake. One of the cuts in my hand had never been cured until I was out of this desolate land so as to feel like this finger would drop from my hand at any time. The others quickly recovered in a few days then new cuts appeared elsewhere. This process occurred periodically. I felt that it was somewhat related to the cold, dry weather and the lack of vitamins. The snow rapidly disappeared, which is unique phenomenon in Chang Tang. Because of the low air humidity and the high radiation from the sun, the snow was evaporating very fast, much quicker than the melting speed. Owing to this, the ground was generally still dry after the snow disappeared. In most cases, it would be only 2/5 left in the afternoon around 2 to 3 o'clock and small patches of ground could be seen. It would be completely all right for walking the next day. On the third day there could be some snow left in somewhere the sunlight hard to reach. So generally it could give you three days of water supply after a heavy snow like this. One of the pannier was broken, the most expensive one from deuter series, supposed to be waterproof. I will come back to it at some point later. Everything was covered by snow, no way out Lying in the middle of Chang Tang, listening to Tian Zhen's songs, and smoking Baisha cigarettes, what else can you ask for? The pregnant female chirus in migration, probably heading to Heishi Beihu to give birth([]

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([]
