蔡定妤2011年的6月6日，正值传统的端午节，友人的西部助学计划让我又一次走进西部。徐州—武威，这条铁路线已经走了N次，从06年暑假起，我就与西部结了缘，而这次的西行其意义不同于以往的旅行，当再次踏上西去的列车时，我的心有些不平静，列车一直往西，人在车上，而心已远去。。。 5月，接到影友文心电话，说有个企业家想到西部助学，问我是否能帮忙联系一个地方。听到此消息后我非常高兴，几年的西部行走让我对西部的生存状况与教育状况有了大概的了解，生存环境的恶劣及生活的贫困，使得西部的孩子们在教育上有很大的缺失，有企业家愿意为西部的教育投资，这是件天大的好事，友人又是个教育专家，教育家与企业家在教育上携手，堪称天作之合。我二话不说，当即答应友人帮他联系地点，作为一个在教育行业就职的旅者，这件事责无旁贷。遂按照企业家的要求帮忙联系助学地点，最终初步定在甘肃天祝藏族自治县。于是，在一个六六大顺的日子里，为了一个共同的目和心愿，启程前往天祝。 二十四小时的长途旅行，我们一行4人于6月7日下午230到达了武威。天祝县副县长与教育局得知此消息后，非常高兴，亲自到车站迎接，原计划下车后租车直达考察学校的计划彻底给打乱了，这份盛情让我们一行四人颇感意外，同时又非常感动，八字还没一撇，则受到如此接待，我们何以担当啊。 既然县上已经安排，恭敬不如从命，遂坐上副县长的车驱车直奔考察学校。 甘肃我曾经多次路过，去年十一长假期间，我和朋友也曾专程去张掖看丹霞。虽然甘肃是个严重缺水的省份，但那里的地貌却让这个干旱的省份有着非常壮美的风景。 天祝藏族自治县位于甘肃省武威市东南部。境内兰新铁路、312国道纵贯南北。山脉与交通线交汇的乌鞘岭是地扼东西的通道，势控河西的咽喉，地势险要，素有“河西走廊门户”之称。 全县辖域面积7149平方公里，居住着藏、土、汉等16个民族，共22.14万人。境内群山环抱，峰峦叠嶂，有郁郁葱葱的苍茫林海，终年积雪的雪山大川和碧草如茵的广阔草原及大小10多条河流。海拔最高4874米，最低2050米，属大陆性高原气候，空气清新，环境优美，素有“高原金盆”之称。 虽然我走过我国的五大藏区，甘肃甘南藏区之前我走过二次，而这个天祝藏区我还是第一次来过。 原以为这里只有黄沙与山丘，没想到车到深山，眼前居然出现了这么一大片碧绿的湖水，这让我很兴奋，随即要求师傅停车，下车拍照。 这是天祝县的一个人工水库，由于这里严重缺水，天祝县及周边县则利用地势修建了一些这样的蓄水库，当地民众也就靠着这些水库维持生存。 从水库的蓄水量上看，今年是个严重干旱年，水库的水位明显在降低。 边缘许多地方早已干涸，可以看出这点蓄水量远远满足不了当地民众的用水需求，非常明显，缺水是当地农业发展的最大“瓶颈”。 也正是因为了解这个情况，所以当看到这个水库时我才异常兴奋的让师傅停了车，水是生命之源，有了水，才能有发展的可能，而西部贫困的主要原因是因为环境的影响所造成的。 沿着进山的路，车行两个多小时后，我们到达了要考察的学校——天祝旦马乡初级中学。 学校提前得知了消息，车到了学校门口，校长和老师们全部来到校门口迎接，县长按照藏族的礼仪亲自给我们献上了哈达，而且是上面绘着藏地佛教八宝图的黄色哈达。一般情况下给客人献上的是白色哈达，而这种黄色的带有佛教八宝图的哈达只在寺庙里用，当县长把这条哈达搭在我的胸前时，我感动的不知说什么才好，因为我知道这条哈达的含义与“分量”。一个普通的旅者，何德何能，能接受这样的哈达。 走进校门后，友人、企业家及杨树林助学创办者就由县长、教育局分管资助的主任及学校校长等陪同参观校舍。而我则“自作主张”的在校园里用相机进行“走访”。作为一个旅者、一个影者，用相机记录行走中的所见、所闻、所感、所悟是我的行摄“目”。能有机会走进这边远藏区的学校，对我来说是个非常难得的机会，我要利用每个机会记录下每个地方带给我的所见所闻。 旦马学校位于一个四面环山的小小盆地里，四面都被山所包围，只有一条出山的路通往武威和天祝县城。学校的校舍大多数是平房，而且有新有旧，由此看出，这所学校的建设也是在不断的发展之中。虽然学校处在深山里，还是建设了高大的教学楼。在西部山区，一看到红砖房、楼房和飘扬的五星红旗，多半就是学校了，校舍建设在西部山区还是比较重视的。从校园及校舍上看，旦马学校还是比较有规模的一个学校。 学校的“基础硬件”设施在西部算是很不错的。旦马学校校园给我印象最深的是教学楼上那十个大字：人人能发展，个个有希望。孩子就如小小树苗，个个都是可塑之才，成才与否不在于孩子，而在于教育。教育工作者能有此理念，孩子们就有希望了。 由于这里是牧区，山里的牧民住的十分分散，孩子们读书都离家比较远，没法走读，有的孩子周末回家需要走三个小时的山路才能到家，因此基本上孩子从读小学起就住校，因此，这里的小学也有宿舍。一般情况下，条件较差的学校两个孩子一张床，有的学校三个孩子一张床。正是由于在这样的状况下读书，孩子们的自理能力都很强，日常生活基本全由自己打理，当然，在山里学校做老师的，在教学的同时还要照管孩子们的日常起居，既是老师，又是家长，这就是西部山区学校的“特点”。 这些是小学二年级的孩子们，旦马学校原本小学和初中是分开的，由于小学校舍建在山脚下，近来山体出现了滑坡，校舍成了危房，学校紧急决定将小学的孩子们集中到了中学的教学楼里，宿舍不够，便将孩子们的教室与宿舍合二为一，于是，孩子们学习和生活的场所便集中在了这里。从床上的铺盖看，这间房里的孩子是每一张双层床上住6个孩子。虽然条件不太好，可孩子们能在这里安心读书，他们还是非常非常的高兴。 即使这样，学校的宿舍还是不够用，学校便临时将学生餐厅腾出来做了宿舍，不管用什么办法，总要解决孩子们的生活问。细心的驴友们可以注意到，就是这样，这间房里也是4个孩子睡一张双层床。 这是学校的食堂，阿姨正在为孩子们准备晚餐。厨房一角，从这里可以看出，尽管处在山区，学校食堂的卫生状况还是不错的。 食堂的用具基本都是不锈钢的，食堂里有两个师傅在工作，一个在切菜，一个在用机器压面。原以为藏地的学校不太注意卫生，从这里看，卫生状况还真的不算差，这点让人感到欣慰。看过食堂，我又回到了教学楼，想看看孩子们的教室和学习环境。从教室内的环境看，学校的校舍是新建的教学楼，而桌凳还是用的以前的，说明这个教学楼新建不久。 中小学的紧急合并让这所学校的教室也陡然紧张起来，教师们便将办公室腾出来给孩子们做了教室，虽然有点挤，但至少能保证让孩子们正常上课了。 看到孩子们能在这样的教室里上课，作为一个曾经生长在乡下的我，心里真的挺高兴的，比我当年读书的学校条件要好多了，当然这之间有了40多年的时间差。([]

林琦桂一天，一天，秋风拂红了绿叶，阳光晒出了一片片金黄。院子里勤俭的老人们，晒了一地的辣子、菜花、青萝卜、雪里蕻，晒着丰收的心情。偶尔，夜雨坠落，寒气弥漫，惦记着热腾腾的火锅，也想念起温暖的夏季了。初夏，暖风四起。为了见到燕小培，我加入了零队的博格达五峰穿越队伍。第一次漂大厢进山，还是蛮刺激的。颠簸一路，还都挺开心的大风中，颠簸中，窝在人堆里，努力地卷烟卷第一天的路并不长。也是为了让大家适应。2号羊圈扎营之后，便是热热闹闹的火锅大餐。托小培捎来的即墨老酒，加了姜丝和红糖，煮热了，正好配火锅。聊着聊着，一不小心吃了个肚歪，喝了个微醺。收拾东西钻帐篷，听到营地正开始第二场活动。大家围着灯光烟火，和着欢快的歌曲，跳起了舞蹈。红姨啊，你的队伍是我目前遇到最能闹腾、最有活力的队伍了。 第二天的路，虽然雇来了骆驼和马匹，但是顶着狂风行走并不好受。有点庆幸自己没有雇马匹。有大背包在后背档着，暖和许多。饶是如此，某些瞬间风大的地方也会被吹得站立不稳。大石背后好挡风牛气的骆驼，挂了许多背包因为前方积雪太深，马匹过不去。渐渐地，起雾了，风更冷了，小水点儿飞落走上三个岔瀑布，雪已经开始渐渐加大饶是寒风飞雪地，他们依然快乐雪越来越大……其他的山里看来也难幸免在队伍里和飞翔夜猫意外重逢了。去年狼V偶遇这位桂林领队，能背能走。 雪越来越大。过冰面的时候，一步没落好，我的右脚直接踩破冰面落入水里，瞬间那个透心凉呀。后面每一次等待都得不停跺脚取暖。有些队员则因为早上轻装走路的时候，没随身带够衣服，不免有些着凉不适。零队找了个地方安排大家扎营。第一次在雪窝里搭营，好不容易踩出了雪坑，结果风一直吹得帐篷飞来飞去地，没法搭。一旁的广州骆驼已经把帐篷基本搭建完毕，招呼着别弄了，先进帐篷凑合一晚上吧。赶紧收拾自己的东西钻进帐篷，右脚几乎冻僵，冰水泥巴把鞋带粘得一塌糊涂。我想我那天基本是呲牙咧嘴地哆嗦了好半天才换下袜子钻进睡袋保温。而骆驼一直在外面，拉风绳，铲雪压帐篷，再盛回干净的雪，然后才进帐篷，开始烧水做饭。雪花继续飞舞。在这个小小的石围里，不弃、火星还有骆驼的帐篷挨在了一起。骆驼焖了香肠米饭，煮了锅咖喱菜，另外两个帐篷里，每个帐篷炒俩菜，大家一起分享。一轮吃下来，居然又撑着了。骆驼烧了些热茶，喝下去，终于感觉到温度全回来了。大风雪之后，通常会是好天气。早晨的耀眼的阳光驱散了所有寒意。毫无意外的鞋子冻上了，根本穿不进去。不管了，干脆把壶里的温水浇在鞋面上，化开了冰坨子，然后穿上防水袜，笨拙地扎好鞋带，套上雪套，走出帐篷。阳光真好~！没记错的话，旁边这就是4613米的“小珠峰”，中登协高山技能培训会有攀登“小珠峰”的项目。 厚厚的新雪，走起来还是很舒服的。大伙儿的心情格外的好~小培这一身颜色搭配，俏生生拜山，许愿，还原 前方有冰裂缝，零队带头，结组先行。差点踩进裂缝里保持距离，列队前进零队休息中的结组队员广州骆驼简单达坂下，午饭时间。倒是不大饿，煮了锅羊肉汤饭，喝得身上暖烘烘的。继续走着~“简单”达坂，不简单。新雪松软，零队在前面踩出脚印来，大家依次顺序而上，还得小心不会滑下坡去。翻过达坂顶，SOSO给“阜康简单”烧去纸钱，希望他继续保佑大家在山里平平安安。欢乐地下坡去咯过雪原到达三号冰湖附近，择地扎营。意外得知今天是“千寻”的生日，细心的“火星”拿来面条和鸡蛋，让我给“千寻”做一碗长寿面，他和“夜猫”则动手做饭炒菜。晚上大伙儿挤在姑娘们的大帐篷里，给"千寻"唱歌庆祝，分享美食，热热闹闹地聊成一片。大概星星们也觉得我们有点吵~今天要出山啦，要出山啦~。回头再见~还有冰裂缝。骆驼拍照的时候，包上挂着的杯子掉下去了。用手杖折腾好一会儿，捞上来了。由于一路下坡，温度渐渐回升，植被也越来越丰富，大伙儿的速度渐渐地也加快了 一起搞个怪……群主被群杵？零队你拍个牛粪也那么敬业沿途能看到裂开的冰河 再见小培，依旧美丽开朗，爱笑得没心没肺的。继续保持哦，为了爱你的人们和你爱的人们小寿星千寻忽然觉得你俩很默契~零队说了，出山会看到花海。然后我们一路寻找，沿途只看到零星的小花。零队说，每平方米只要有一朵也算……花海趴在地上拍微距也是蛮累的。。。忽然看到了成片的紫花，等待许久的摄友们激动了到达绝望坡顶，休息。天气暖和了([]

毛冠宇刚进入总统府映入眼帘的就是满眼的绿色总统府大楼充满热带风情的乌敏岛 到新加坡旅行，如果时间合适，一定要去总统府参观了。到新加坡容易，恰巧遇到总统府开放却很难了。 我在新加坡时，正好遇到就立即赶往参观。 新加坡总统府（Istana），在马来语中是皇宫的之意，迄今已有140年历史，其前身曾经是英殖民期间修建的一座白色三层官邸。戒备森严的新加坡总统府汇集了多种建筑风格，四周有雕刻精美的珠子，极富古典韵味。 从1995年1月2日起，它成为定期向大众开放的自然观赏区（每年4-5次），一般在农历新年、劳动节、新加坡国庆节、马来开斋节、印度圣火节才会开放。进门1新元（相当于人民币约5元），进入礼宾厅2新元。如果运气好的话，有可能见到新加坡总统和总理，甚至可以和他们亲切握手。 入门要安检，很简单，过门之后一眼望去就是高尔夫球场了，走了半天没有看到什么建筑还以为是在植物园。其实总统府所在地之前就是个肉豆蔻种植园，昔日是英国皇室代表的官邸。礼宾厅是总统会见各国宾客的地方，里面展览了各国赠送的银器，珠宝，有超大的象牙，镶宝石的地毯，各种雕像。里面不可以拍照，警卫戒备森严。 去乌敏岛需在樟宜角渡轮码头（ChangiPointFerryTerminal）通过安检（相当于出国了），搭乘约10-15分钟渡船，渡船费用单程2.5新元，上岛免费。 乌敏岛（PulauUbin）是新加坡第三大外岛，乌敏岛位于新加坡本岛东北部，其东面与德光岛相望，北面有柔佛海峡。乌敏岛东西长约8公里，南北宽1.3至1.7公里，地形有如腰果，全岛面积10.2平方公里。乌敏岛的中部是自然次生林。此外，一些橡胶园和椰树林也零星散布在岛的各处。 岛上住的居民不到50人，主要是上了年纪舍而不得离开的老居民。这些居民，喜欢在上午时分到咖啡店叙家常。这里的生活步调，比起过于城市化的本岛，明显慢了许多。乌敏岛的东部是新加坡重要的一个湿地自然保护区：ChekJawa（仄爪哇）。这个面积约100公顷的海边湿地是最后的岩石海滩之一。这里的生态环境相当独特，包括了沙滩、岩滩、海草泻湖、珊瑚碎片、红树林和滨海森林等。 岛上可骑脚踏车或徒步漫游整个岛屿，岛上有很多脚踏车租车店，也可以在此露营，岛上设有度假村，还提供各种水上活动。感受新加坡之一——漫步岛国看狮城 干净清新亦繁华（概述篇）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2172957-1-1.html感受新加坡之二——休闲小岛走不停 亚洲最南寻风情（圣淘沙篇）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2172957-1-1.html感受新加坡之三——参天巨树生满园热带风情绿无限（植物园篇）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2231866-1-1.html感受新加坡之五——海风轻拂鱼尾狮 流光溢彩夜迟迟（滨海湾篇）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2255988-1-1.html感受新加坡之六——狮城国花胡姬花千姿百态芬芳开（胡姬花篇）https//bbs.8264.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2299743&page=1&extra=#pid58352540感受新加坡之七——小印度里寻缩影甘榜格南回族情（新加坡河等篇）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2322447-1-1.html 感受新加坡之八——立体交通路纵横街道小区绿充盈（交通和街道篇）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2326625-1-1.html 感受新加坡之九——狮城春节气息浓牛车水里最喜庆（春节和牛车水篇）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2330106-1-1.html感受新加坡之十——方式灵活有初院 环境优美好校园（南初篇）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2344728-1-1.html感受新加坡之十一——享誉全球名高校 环境优雅美校园（南大篇）https//bbs.8264.com/thread-2354269-1-1.html 总统府大门 进入总统府，迎面就是绿色。 茂盛的热带植物 绿草如茵且允许随意踩踏。 在总统府见到巡逻的警车。整个新加坡很难看到警车。 总统府大楼 乘船驶向乌敏岛 乌敏岛码头 乌敏岛上的湖泊 新加坡示意图 总统府和乌敏岛在新加坡的位置 进入总统府前，自觉排队等待进入的人们。 总统府内游人不少 热带参天巨树 树干上也生长着其他植物 这里的草坪很漂亮，可谓芳草萋萋。 盛开的热带花卉 置身总统府院内，仿佛置身绿色和鲜花丛中。 妖艳的热带花卉 总统府大楼有人很多，也许大家都盼着能巧遇总统呢。 花卉的海洋 热带花卉红的艳丽 总统府内的热带花园 巨树苍天 总统府内摆放的很有些历史的大炮 在总统府远眺滨海湾大楼 游人可以再草坪上随意的散步 巨树随处可见 正在自拍的游人([

林乃文我有些照片想和大家分享交流一下.我在2009年花了五个月一个星期的时间从乔治亚州的SPRINGER MT.背包徒步到缅因州的MT. KATAHDIN.完成全程共2,178英里, 或3,500公里, 越过十四个州.我拍了4,500多张的照片, 主要做个实地记录.因为东西太多, 人太懒, 除了原始每天的起末点外, 没作任何笔录, 所以文字说明就免了.但每个文件名都有日期和地点的对应.不过抱歉它们都是英文的.因图片储存的服务器在异地, 如果网络连接效果不好, 我也不打算再在这里上载了.若有问或高见, 我以后再一一回答和请教.2009 美国阿帕拉契亚小道直通背包徒步另外, 我还有其它几个影集顺便一起附上.希望不使大家失望. 我忘了附上一张全程示意图.我一直忙着科罗拉多小道，把先发的帖子给忘了。雨天看窗服！这么长距离开车都觉得累-是的，当我做完的时候，人非常的累。我的体重掉了20多斤，回去后3个星期里，走起路来浑身疼。雨天看窗下次可以end2end洛基山脉 -给你猜对了一半。方向大概一样，地点可能稍有不同，但资金是关键。大东从“科罗拉多小道”找过来的，稍后慢慢再看。谢谢分享！-这过程太长，同时既然要做，就要比上次做的好。我恐怕在最近的将来找不出时间来完成。我最近把2009年背包徒步的原始照片又重新看了一遍，对其中一些具有代表性和我喜欢的作了处理，上载到8264我的相册里。现在觉得手上有点时间，而且以前几位8264的朋友鼓励我将编辑出以与大家分享。我原本在徒步时并没有任何要发表游记或功略的打算，只是想尽可能多地记录下自己所经历过的，所看到的一切，给自己以后一个回忆的依据。在背包徒步中，由于前后时间太长，即使后来比较好的景色很快地便成了所谓的"审美疲劳";的产品，再加上按时完成旅途的压力，和天气等的原因，相当多的日子里，照片不是被疏忽了，便是寥寥无几。我的笔录除了每天的所到之处外，几乎没有任何其它的记录。我所能叙述的都靠回忆了，并且这也不是我的擅长。敬请谅解。阿帕拉契亚小道的全称为阿帕拉契亚山国家景观小道。它座落在美国大陆的东部，以乔治亚州的Springer Mountain为南端起点，贯穿14个州，直到在缅因州的北端终点，Mount Katahdin。小道全长约2181英里(3510公里，2011年更新)，通过乔治亚州，北卡罗来纳州，田纳西州，韦吉利亚州，西韦吉利亚州，马里兰州，宾夕法尼亚州，新泽西州，纽约州，康奈迪克州，麻萨诸塞州，佛蒙特州，新汉普什尔州，和缅因州。阿帕拉契亚小道。阿帕拉契亚小道以相同的平面比例覆盖在中国地图上。阿帕拉契亚小道沿线的主要城市。这个基本由人类设想，人工刻意开辟的小道现由30个左右，当地小道俱乐部来维护，并受国家公园事务处(National Park Service)，和非盈利性组织，阿帕拉契亚小道保护协会(Appalachian Trail Conservancy)的管理。其中参预的人员大部为自愿者。平时运作的资金来源于国家的预算，非盈利性经营，和各种捐款等。阿帕拉契亚小道最初在上个世纪的二十年代由几位先贤设想，与无数的参预者一起，克服重重困难，在短短的十几年中建成了绵延数千公里的贯通小道。小道的地势呈两端高耸，且较荒芜。而中段却与人类的居住与文明非常的接近。其最高点在北卡罗来纳州与田纳西州州界上的Clingmans Dome，6643英尺(或海拔2025米)；最低处在纽约州的哈得逊河旁的熊山动物园内，只有124英尺(或海拔38米)。小道可以处在半径几百英里人烟罕见之地；也可以离纽约市只有34英里。小道沿线的植物种类繁多，温带的不说，阿尔卑斯型的高山，甚至所谓北极圈内型的植被都能见到。动物包括熊，郊狼，鹿，麋鹿，短尾山猫，猞狸，森林响尾蛇，等等。阿帕拉契亚小道的平面方向记为一白色的，5x15cm的漆印。一般在小道两侧的树上，面对南面和北面两个方向。沿线有共有250个左右的临时居住木屋，和营地，其中极少数是要付费的；而在此之外，更多的则是任意和免费的空间，只要符合管理当局的规定和遵守一般的露营常识就可以了。除去北端的一些地区外，大部分的小道均与道路交通线相交，走全线的背包徒步者大概隔每三，四天就可以由此进市镇去休息整理，补充给养等。这个小道原本的思路不是为了徒步者一个季节，一次走完。但"贯通型"的徒步却被视为最终极的方式。由于地理，气候，伤病，和时间等的原因，使得能在一个季度里完成全程3500公里的背包徒步成为非常的困难。在上个世纪，从起点登记上路的统计算起，通常完成全程的人只有10~15%。但在2000年以后，此成功率达到近30%左右。可能是由于网络媒介的传播发展，背包徒步的资料充足，及装备理念的更新导致了这种现象。一般一个徒步者要花上4~6个月左右的时间走完全程。基于开始时间和地点的不同，徒步者的行进方向可分为从南向北，或由北朝南，或分段跳跃似的，或从中间向两头去，或从两头往中间走。启程晚的徒步者在后期阶段，面临的可能已经是大雪覆盖地面的冬天了。阿帕拉契亚小道保护协会(Appalachian Trail Conservancy)对完成3500公里的阿帕拉契亚小道全程的背包徒步者作出统计，无论他们是一年内做完，还是分十年，二十年做完。背包徒步者必须要基于个人的诚信，如实地向其协会提出申请。从有史记载以来一共有一万两千多人完成了全程的徒步，包括一人完成多次的，一人分若干年完成的。。。我所知道的Warren Doyle16次走完全程，还有其他很多走完多次的人。我本人用了五个月另一个星期从开始到结束，包括相对长时回家处理事务和生病的时间。全世界从1936年起至今完成全程3500公里徒步人的总数，共一万两千多人(次?)。我名字在2009年完成全程3500公里徒步人的名单上。倒数第六。2009年4月29日当日起点 North Plainfield, NJ次日终点 Gainesville, GA距旅途终点Mt.

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.

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([]
