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([]

西沙群岛，那片遥远的海疆，从儿时的电影、课文中就出现的美丽海域，终于成为了眼前触手可及的美景。经历了往返近48个小时的骇浪颠簸、晕船呕吐，当我庆幸终于离开不停摇动的甲板，踏上陆地时，却发现自己竟然不适应在陆地上行走，深一脚浅一脚，仿佛还停留在船上的状态。西沙群岛所有的美景、淳朴的渔民，都让我如此陶醉，如此留恋！这次的旅行非同寻常，刻骨铭心，醉生梦死，西沙的一切都让我中毒太深，据说解药藏在西沙的那些海岛上，看来，西沙还得再去一次，再去一次啊！像往常一样，从这个叫做北京的地方飞向美丽的海南岛，这次与以往任何一次旅行都不一样，将要乘坐一种叫做船的家伙出海，听说还是木制的渔船，兴奋、开心、好奇、纠结、忐忑，等等一并袭来，组成了一支出发进行曲，在沐浴着晨光的心间来回荡漾。南航的A380，传说中的巨无霸，绝对比麦当劳里的那个有型，身披金光，霸气十足！可惜了，这不是飞海南的，我乘坐的A330，比起这个家伙，寒酸啊！登机就睡觉，惯例！眼睛一闭、一睁，还是在天上，再一闭、一睁，海南岛到了！4月的海口已然湿热无比，吹着微微的海风，晃晃悠悠来到了市区。05年至今来过海南五六趟，海口几乎没有任何变化，交通依然混乱不堪，只是原来满大街的摩托车变成了清一色的电瓶车，在大街小巷横冲直闯，真是佩服海南人的车技和耐心！吃，旅行的一个永恒主！文昌鸡、东山羊、加积鸭、和乐蟹号称海南四大美食，均已尝遍。海口街头巷口那些本地人光顾的大排档才是真正的美食聚集地，简单挑几张这次吃过的东东，出海之前吃饱喝足，到时候晕船呕吐才有体力啊！正，正，扯了半天都跑，出海的时刻即将到来！夜色中的港口一片祥和，殊不知再过1个时辰，待到风高月夜之时，我等将随船潜入夜，悄悄向西沙海域进发！深夜23时左右，船只出发了，如果一切顺利，将在24个小时后抵达西沙海域。几乎在所有的影像或文字资料中，海都是唯美和浪漫的代名词。然而当渔船驶出港口，理想和现实的差距渐渐拉开。船长说这次我比较幸运，海况还算不错，寒流刚结束，台风季节还没到，所以没有大的风浪。尽管如此，半夜在深海，浪也达到了1米多高，躺在船顶的甲板上，来回晃悠。夜深时，呼啸的海风夹杂在孤单的马达轰鸣声中，听起来格外恐怖。海浪一声声打在甲板、船身，偶尔还夹杂着雨点飘来，机房也飘来是刺鼻柴油味严重刺激了我的神经，在支离破碎的梦境中晃悠到天明。晕船，是必须的，出发前为晕船做了充分准备，买了晕船药和晕船贴，不过为了体验晕船的奇妙感受，这些东西都没用上。天将明，海浪依然不减，干脆起床站到船头甲板去吹海风，看海上日出。驾驶舱位于船只顶部，摇晃也最厉害。而机舱工作人员常年要在震耳欲聋的噪音中工作。一下到底舱，各种机器一同工作产生的震耳欲聋的噪音迎面袭来，船上无时无刻不在的噪音原来是从这儿发出的。几十吨的渔船在大海中，如同一粒尘埃，严重的颠簸摧残着我，船体有时候倾斜近20°，晕得厉害，没撤，日出是看不下去了，爬回甲板继续平躺，船工说，即使在海上工作了几十年的老船员有时候也会晕船。同行的哥们问：“晕吗？”答：“晕！”又问：“想吐吗？”答：“想，可我舍不得，昨儿吃的，鲍鱼！”船工过来喊我去下层船舱吃饭，挣扎着爬到船舱里，一股刺鼻的柴油味袭来，连滚带爬又回到了上层甲板，脑袋伸向大海，眩晕加反胃，开吐。吐完靠着船舷坐在甲板上，舒服多了，当时心里就想，回程也是同样的航程，我靠，没法活了。船长说：晕船是避免不了的，吃了东西，吐了，那就再吃……在轰鸣的马达和颠簸中度过一个白天，晕乎乎的躺在甲板上，船上的生活可想而知很枯燥。大海上一切信号都消失，不能上网，手机也只能当做闹钟用。心里琢磨，从来没有过的体验，连续躺着超过20多个小时，突然又想到还有回程，瞬间心里那个凌乱啊！天色暗下来，远处海平线上隐约露出了一个灯塔，啊，是北礁！激动的差点内牛满面。过了北礁，到西沙就只剩下不到5个小时的航程了，亲，你们能体验兄弟我此刻的心情么！继续平躺，船体从灯塔旁悄然驶过。航灯塔，在儿时的印象中，就是一位老人孤独地坚守在塔顶，日复一日为过往的船只指引前行的航路。从内陆前往南中国海，第一站是北礁灯塔，这个灯塔作用十分重大，过往船只都要通过它来核对航海参数。塔高23米，顶灯射程能够达到15海里。远航过的人都能理解，在黑夜中的大海上，远方的灯塔就像家一样温暖。从日出到日落，又一天过去了，西沙越来越近！在大海上，无风三尺浪，看似平静的海面，船体还是来回摇晃。在白天的航行中，偶遇了海豚，共三只，远远地露出灰色的背鳍，突然跃出海面，优美的划出一道弧线，落水后便消失了！日落的过程无法用语言去形容，绚丽的色彩用任何镜头都难以表达。黑夜又将来临，从出发到现在，已经过了23个小时，西沙海域，我们终于抵达了！天黑了，无法登陆附近的岛屿，船长说明天早上涨潮后再登岛，今晚继续在船上打发时光。整整睡了近24个小时，现在精神亢奋，钓鱼是船上最普遍的娱乐活动。船工打开船头的照明灯，大伙开始钓鱼，各种钓具齐出动。有用杆的，有用卷筒的，有的直接攥着一根鱼线，都能钓上鱼。钓到的都是些稀奇古怪的鱼，生活在内地的我们基本上叫不出这些鱼的名字。不到一个小时的功夫，已经钓上来几十条鱼，生鱼片敞开供应，渔获在甲板上直接加工，很美味，像嫩牛肉一样，入口即化。太阳再次升起，美丽的西沙映入眼帘，海面深邃幽蓝，太阳从海中慢慢升起，一会金色的阳光遍铺满海面，海水也变成了碧绿色。银屿岛，抵达西沙后见到的第一个岛屿，远远看去就像一道美丽的金黄色线条。这个礁石岛面积只有0.01平方公里，海拔不足两米，随着涨潮，面积将变得更小。岛上有几座渔民的棚屋，有些渔民常年驻守在这里进行捕捞作业。今天我将登陆这个岛屿，在岛上浮潜、露营！这些位于大海中的珊瑚岛，四周水很浅，我们的渔船无法靠近，只能远远的停泊在深海区域，依靠渔民的小船往返接送。这种小船配备一个小马达，最大承载量6-8人。渔民站在船上疾驶的造型太酷了，可惜我们没有这个平衡能力。来西沙很仓促，几乎没有时间去整理装备，胡乱装了一大包就来了。从小船上直接跳进海里，双脚浸入海水的那一瞬间，海水暖暖的，心都快化了。由于西沙群岛没有对外开放，再加之其地理位置远离陆地，所以它的生态环境得以有效的保护，真正体验到了清澈见底、碧波浩渺的传说场景。无数次看到马尔代夫、大溪地等著名海滩的图片，也无数次憧憬，来到西沙后，一切憧憬都是神马浮云，惊叹、激动、恍惚……长期以来由于环境恶化、过度捕捞，国内很多渔场已面临无鱼可捞，海南也不例外，近海的渔业资源也近乎枯竭。对于祖祖辈辈把大海当做粮仓的渔民来说，面前就只有一条路：去更远的海。西沙的很多岛屿上都有常年驻守的渔民，每个岛多则数十人，少则3、4人。他们每次出海驻岛作业少则3、4个月，多则半年、一年，甚至更长。在这与世隔绝、杳无音讯的海岛上，白天与大海作伴，夜晚与星月相依，日出而作日入而息，简单、枯燥、寂寞，日复一日，年复一年。捕捞上来的螺、鱼、贝等分类存放在这样的塑料框里，泡在海水中养殖，不定期就会有大型的渔船来西沙收购，纯天然无污染。面对这样的大海，没有理由拒绝，不管你是否会游泳，都要跳进她的拥抱，与之嬉戏！面对这样的大海，端着相机的双手都在颤抖，处处是美景，都不知从何处下手了。同行的有两个哥们带了哈苏和大义617胶片机来创作，我只能借机摆个POSS。碧绿的海水蔚蓝的天空让你无法控制自己身体对它的亲近，这里是绝佳的浮潜天堂。一个猛子扎下海去，很多海洋的动植物立刻将你拥抱，那些可爱的热带鱼偶尔会调皮地“摩擦和戏弄”你一下，冷不丁也会窜出一条长达1米的不知名海鱼从身边缓缓游过，擦肩而过时还痞痞的斜眼藐你。所谓的海螺、贝壳、珊瑚之类的暂且放下，还有更多的东西诱惑着你，鲍鱼、八爪鱼、海胆、海参、石斑鱼等等，知道名字和不知道名字的，以前看过的还是从未谋面的，数不胜数，都等着你去零距离地亲密接触。水下拍摄，第一次尝试，借来同行哥们的佳能D10水下相机，尽情拍个够。水下相机的色彩还原效果特别出色，也有用防水袋装着普通单反的，但防水袋的塑料折射率太差，拍出的效果也不太好。第一天登岛后没有太多经验，赤膊上阵，结果强烈的紫外线让我吃尽了苦头，接下来的几天内都是长衣长裤、鞋袜齐全下海，还好保护措施及时补救，才没有晒伤，同行的好几个哥们浑身晒得像煮熟的龙虾，红通通的，两条大腿似乎穿了性感的红丝袜。对于珊瑚，大家并不陌生，除了水族馆，大多见到的都是加工过的珊瑚石，这里的海底遍布活珊瑚，一猛子扎到海底，轻轻的拿起一块珊瑚体，软软的，触角还在蠕动，拍张照，再缓缓将它们送回海底。这里的海水透明度高达几十米，岛屿周边因为有浅滩，海滩延伸出去50多米，水深大多是齐腰或齐胸。一个人静静的浮潜在这里，大海、鱼儿、珊瑚等做伴，时间和思维都停止了，爬在水面上发呆，体验从未有过的感觉。聊天、唠嗑、摆龙门阵……没有酒水饮料、没有零食小吃，大家就这样坐在珊瑚礁上，泡在海水中，一个下午的时光就这样悠闲的度过了！既然是中国的领土，必定要有象征主权的界碑，西沙每一个露出海面的岛屿上均有边防等单位设立的警示碑。风吹日晒，很多碑上的涂料均已褪色，在附近找到烧过木灰，涂抹上，才显示出那些碑刻上的国徽和说明文字。岛上没有任何接待条件，除了孤零零的几座渔民的木棚，扎营是最佳方案，超级海景房啊，面朝大海，春暖花开！傍晚退潮的时候，岛屿一侧从海平面上渐渐露出了一片金黄色的小岛，覆盖整座岛屿的都是细细的珊瑚贝壳的碎砂，如同海市蜃楼般的幻境。傍晚，出海捕鱼的渔民回来了，今天的收成不错，光这条红鱼，就足足20多斤重。海水退潮速度很快，原本潜水才能看到的海底逐渐抬出海平面，变成了成片的礁盘，夕阳映射在礁盘上，散发出炫目的金光。退潮后的海水似乎也平静了许多，浪花拍打礁石的节奏也很轻柔，美，要怎么说出口。一天就这样静静的走向结束，坐在礁盘上，遥望北方，家，就在那里！傍晚，在夕阳悄悄躲进地平线以后，夜空亦非平时所云的点点繁星，那种大小不等、交织相连、层次分明的星云恰似一幅立体的抽象三维图案悬挂在天际。海浪早已退去，海风也平静得恍如催眠。整个空间的色彩也由泛黄、金黄、火红、亮紫、暗红在过度。刚才提到今天出海渔民的渔获不错，除了大红鱼和一堆螺外，还有这些貌不惊人的石斑鱼，石斑在内地市场的身价动辄几百一斤。但，在西沙，从渔民手中购买，低廉的价格仿佛回到解放前

最近几天在预订下个月去日本的一系列事项，繁复的资料查找，比较机票、酒店性价比，锁定目以及安排预订等等，不由得想起来之前几次的“折腾”。从巴厘岛，到韩国，再到日本，但凡是自由行，必然要经过犹如“产前阵痛”一般的折磨。当一切尘埃落定终于可以松一口气的时候，才是旅途得以享受的开始。今天不说别的，就说说巴厘岛十日自由行的准备。去年11月中旬出发，Maple9月初就开始着手进行准备。本来想等10月份携程自由行价格出来，但考虑到自己预订自由性更大，且可以选择最优解决方案，因此Maple再一次秀逗，毅然决然担当起8人出行巴厘岛10日自由行的全部安排工作。第一步：确定出行时间，预订机票。机票无疑是自由行总预算中占比最大的，因此一定早下手抢特价票。9月初开始看机票价格，各大航空都是往返含税7000多。熬到9月中，新航突然出现了特价，这无疑是一个可以出手购票的信号。在这里还有一个小窍门。我们都知道ctrip或者去哪儿这样的机票查询平台，其实从平台查个大概后，国际航班还是建议直接去各航空公司的网站上查询价格，往往，官网上的价格会更加优惠，也更及时。枫叶邀请您泰国普吉岛自由行（风景&人妖&美食&买物大赏）独家攻略！更新结束！https//bbs.8264.com/forum-viewthread-tid-1285729-highlight.html巴厘岛位于南纬八度，想从北京过去，必定要中转一次。可以选择的方案有：新加坡航空，中转新加坡；马来西亚鹰航，中转吉隆坡；大韩航空，中转首尔；国泰航空，中转香港；泰国航空，中转曼谷；印尼航空，中转雅加达。综合考虑各航空后，发现新航的航班最多；提前2个多月预订往返含税机票价是5308元，很是优惠；并且新航中转新加坡，总计飞行时间也是偏短的。而且还考虑到在新加坡中转，可以顺便游览这个亚洲有名的花园城市，实在是一举夺得。经过一系列的抉择，所以将目锁定在了新航往返巴厘岛上。第二步，机票预订。决定了航空公司，这只是机票预订的第一步。新航的航班非常多，每天从北京巴厘岛中转的航班有不下10个时间可以选择。期间的差别就是有的停留时间短，有的停留时间长。中转时间短的，在新加坡只会停留1个半小时；中转时间长的，可以停留25个小时。因此决定具体飞行时间，满足新加坡一日游的安排，是第二步要考虑的。考虑到旅行前期精力充沛，旅行结束回家心切，因此Maple安排了11月11日下午出发，晚上抵达新加坡；11月12日下午1845航班到巴厘岛。促使Maple做了这样的决定，也是因为Maple在新航的网站上看到了这样一项服务：第三步，预定好往返机票，下一步就是预订在新加坡的酒店了。新航不愧是以服务著称的航空公司，果然想得相当周到。Maple和X君看到Singapore stopover holiday，当时就决定采用这个服务来完成我们的新加坡一日之旅。1. 新加坡过境随意行（酒店住宿+接送服务+景点游览）包括相应等级酒店一夜住宿在您留宿的SSH酒店，享受餐饮店单点菜单50%的折扣机场与酒店间往返巴士接送（ seat-in-coach）免费乘坐新航随意行巴士（SIA Hop-on Bus）享用亚坤咖啡厅（Ya Kun）的咖啡/茶和吐司免费参观圣淘沙度假屋、国家胡姬花园、新加坡游河观光、裕廊飞禽公园、新加坡动物园、牛车水原貌馆、位于福康宁的碉堡及滨海湾高尔夫球练习场。 2. 新加坡过境随意行（酒店住宿+接送服务）包括相应等级酒店一夜住宿机场与酒店间往返巴士接送这两个服务选择，每人仅仅差别6美金，但多了6美金，就可以多享受随意行巴士和免费早餐，因此Maple为整个Team选择了（酒店+接送+旅游景点）的SSH服务。第四步：预订SSH购买了新航或胜安航空的机票，才可以继续购买SSH。而且目前新加坡过境随意行无法通过泰国、中国、日本和阿拉伯联合大公国的网站购买。这的确难坏了Maple。Maple尝试了从新航的新加坡网址购买，不行；试图查找新航网站上负责SSH的得运旅行社(Tradewinds Tours & Travel) 的联络方式，不行；给新航北京办事处打电话，不行。最后逼得没办法只能给新航新加坡办事处打电话，然后得到了得运旅社的电话，然后电话+邮件预订，才搞定了一切。预订SSH时候，需要提供机票的预订编号（booking reference），而非其他“number”。还记得当时打电话到新加坡，一切都是英文回复，当对方要我的booking reference时候，Maple实在没有反应过来，搞得对方大姐很是郁闷，几次都要挂断电话。当时Maple真是Hold住场面要对方耐心等我一遍遍check。最后的预订成功，绝对是付出了很大的努力的说。尤其当时还在预订12月3人首尔自由行的客栈，一切麻烦事如同毛线球一样择不开，还好结果是好的。现在想起来那是后还真是悲催。不过，没有事前的努力，怎可能获得后期的完美旅行呢。大家要注意了，这个是预订SSH的邮件地址：tradewinds_ssh@singaporeair.com.sg电话是+65 6506 7797(新加坡的电话号码)预订邮件参考写法：Hello i want to book SSH Mybooking referenceJNWSCD i want to book the hotelHotel Royal for 7 people. i need 4 rooms i stay in singapore on Fri, 11 NOV 2011 thank u very much预订后，会很快收到对方回复，按照要求一步步署信用卡授权书，用国际信用卡付款，最后大功告成。抵达新加坡樟宜机场时，无论T2还是T3，出关后在麦当劳旁边都可以找到新加坡过境随意行柜台。拿着最后邮件过来的收据，就可以享受一系列预定好的服务啦。辛苦辛苦~~不辛苦不辛苦~~一大叠门票、早餐券、接送机的车票券，用的时候撕下来就好。每人发一个徽章，这个徽章会在全程乘坐随意行巴士时候当做车票使用。狮城新加坡-亚坤咖椰烤面包从寒冷的北京出发，深夜抵达美丽的花园城市。一接触到雨后泥土的芳香，因为夜色无法看清的街景却可以完整的浮现于脑海。想象着第二天美丽的热带风情和繁华的国际化都市，一夜好眠。在新加坡的第一餐，是SSH安排的亚坤。之前没有了解，事后才发现，原来亚坤在新加坡是如此深入人心。一早在酒店问好地址，从下榻的Hotel Royal门口乘坐公车4站，到Far East Plaza站，每人票价1.8新币。下车后回走5分钟，在Far East Plaza的地下一层，就是Ya Kun Kaya Toast。新加坡人英语很好，问路一点都不成问，而且问的人都知道亚坤的位置，Maple那时候心里就觉得，这地儿挺神！话说这烤土司，外层香脆，里面夹了咖椰酱和牛油，很是香甜。当地食客还会点一碟洒上黑酱油及胡椒粉的半生熟蛋，配着咖椰烤面包一起儿吃。据说专属的Kaya秘方，制作方式自其1944年创始以来就不曾改变。Kaya Toast with Butter 2新币，2片Kaya Peanut Toast 2新币，2片Crackers with Kaya 1.6新币，2套咖啡/茶 1.5新币咖椰（Kaya）酱小资料：咖椰酱是由鸡蛋，糖，椰浆，香兰叶调配而已，是完全的本地风味。咖椰酱分别有绿色和蛋黄色。亚坤店铺里有卖瓶装的Kaya酱，小后悔没有带点回来。除了乌节路这家亚坤，在后面去的摩天轮下面也有一家。个人认为，无论新加坡还是马来餐，口味偏甜，这可以体现在他们的咖啡、奶茶以及面食各个方面。同团的boss吃不惯甜味的早餐，因此自己到隔壁买了一份更加传统的面食。都知道新加坡物价贵，超市里一罐可乐就要3新币左右，但是还别说，这样一套面食+一罐可乐只要3马币，可谓便宜哉。 Far East Plaza下面的小食店，早晨10点不到，路面还没有很多人，但这里人气很兴旺。([]

以后再也不虐了！ 2010年国庆节期间，在泸沽湖稻城亚丁徒步的路上，当我一次次离开队伍溜进路边的小树林痛苦地拉肚子的时候，当我一次次地抚摸我那疼痛的左腿膝盖的时候，当我浑身酸软无力迈着沉重的双腿疲惫地一步步地向前蹭的时候，我恨恨地一遍遍地对自己说：以后再也不虐了！是的，以后再也不虐了！我要好好地爱护好我的膝盖，以使自己还能多玩几年户外。我要好好地爱护我的身体，以使自己能尽情地享受这日益美好的物质文化生活。我要多走些休闲性的线路甚至是些旅游景点，多一些闲适，少一些风吹日晒…… 可是，当我翻过邛引村后的垭口突然发现那将山坡染得彤红一片的楸树的时候，当我到达当天的营地晒着太阳喝着咖啡看漫天云卷云舒的时候，当我在亚丁的草海留连忘返找个安静的小山坡眯上眼睛打盹的时候，当我在稻城前往香格里拉的路上眼前突然出现那红得像簇簇火焰的狼毒花的时候，当我在电脑前一遍遍翻看此行拍的所有照片的时候，我禁不住又怯怯地想：以后…以后…再也不虐了？第一章双流机场：有缘的人会再相见 “老史！” 9月21日晚，成都双流机场人来人往。我身后背个大包，胸前背个小包，再挂个单反，全副武装地走向机场出站口。出站通道很像是一个T型台，三面挤满了来接站的人。场面那是相当滴隆重和火爆。当然，他们不是来接我的…… 就在我昂首挺胸地向前进时，那个细细的很清脆的女声突然在我耳畔响起。扭头一看，有点不敢相信，指点着她的鼻子说：“怎么是你啊？！” 这个女子是土豆。今年端午节，我们刚刚一起走了莲花湖-伍须海的徒步穿越。和土豆的相识很有戏剧性。那一天，我像个巡海的夜叉一般在论坛闲逛的时候，土豆加了我的QQ，问我她明明发了一个AA约伴的帖子，怎么居然给她转到商业版块了。我连忙申明这事不是我干的（坏事一般都不是我干的），因为我只有转出帖子的权限，但没有转进帖子的权限。后来经过了解，我也专门进了她的QQ群了解情况，她确实发的是AA制活动。于是，就向AA版块的版主说明了一下，将帖子重新给她转到了AA版。只是我这一加进她的群，就上了贼船。土豆的征伴帖，目的地是莲花湖-伍须海徒步。他们在群里聊线路，聊攻略，我看着看着，就上钩了，决定报名。但结果，土豆和我，一个领队，一个副领队，皆因为某些原因没有成行。冬去春来。某一日我偶然打开了早就屏蔽的那个群时，发现他们又在讨论那条线路。原来土豆和一帮朋友又决定今年端午节再相约走这条线路。土豆说，老史，你也一块吧，正好五缺一呢。我说好！ 2010年的端午节，我们驴友6人，在莲花湖-伍须海徒步穿越中，走过了一条难忘的线路，度过了难忘的几天。特别是在黑漆漆的塔公草原上，在风中雨中，在泥泞中，我们并肩战斗，一路连推带拉带拽，终于和那辆苦命的面包车一起在凌晨时分顺利回到了康定县城。 “你怎么在这里啊？”我对突然出现在双流机场欢迎人群中的土豆感到非常惊讶。我知道她肯定不是因为欢迎我才出现在这里。在此之前的MSN上交流中，土豆说要去尼泊尔。而她的男友ROFFEE，我们莲花湖-伍须海穿越的队友，则要独自骑行川藏线。而就在我这次出行前，土豆听说我要去徒步泸沽湖稻城亚丁，还专门把在亚丁一重要岗位工作的朋友的电话告诉了我，告诉我如果在亚丁有什么事情处理，她朋友肯定会帮忙摆平。土豆刚从上海飞到成都，在双流机场都没来得及出机场大厅。她提前赶到，然后在此接ROFFEE。遗憾的是，ROFFEE明明从2号通道出来，她却误跑到了1号通道。于是，该接的人没接到，不该接的人却接上了…… 于是一起等ROFFEE。在此期间，经数次通话，终于和前来接我的本次泸沽湖稻城亚丁徒步队友老铁棍接上了头——他跑到2号通道去了。几个月没见，和土豆、ROFFEE在双流机场的不期而遇，让我们都又惊又喜。要知道，我们三人初次见面，就是在双流机场。因为老铁棍开车来机场接我，要直接拉我去郫县，而ROFFEE的自行车不方便携带，我们只好遗憾话别。在去郫县的路上，我给同走莲花湖-伍须海的老相发了条手机短信，说我在双流机场居然遇到土豆和ROFFEE了。老相回复道：缘份呐第二章关于老铁棍这个人老铁棍，土生土长的四川人。包工头。此次泸沽湖稻城亚丁徒步，我们给老铁棍起了个绰号：万人迷。另外，徒步过程中我们给老铁棍一个集体的评价：包工头不可怕，就怕包工头有文化。老铁棍“万人迷”的绰号是我们到达亚丁景区后封给他的。经过8天的风吹日晒，我们个个灰头土脸，脸色黝黑。老铁棍更是8天没洗过脸，满脸的晒伤。但他喜欢笑，一笑就露出两个小酒窝和一嘴大牙。河北的猫就说：老铁棍，我现在发现你的牙真白啊！饶是如此，当我们背着大包穿行在亚丁景区的人流中时，老铁棍还是被一个美女给拦了下来。“帅哥，你背的包好大哦，我好佩服你哦。明天能带偶去卡斯地狱谷不？” 老铁棍连忙把墨镜一推推到了额头上，两眼放光、满脸堆笑地说：“好哦好哦，我们明天就去哦！”我敢打赌，当时他连卡斯地狱谷在哪都不知道！在荒草野岭里走了8天，那形象说实话不太上镜。但在这样的情况下还能被美女给盯上，我等一干人等既忌妒又羡慕。老铁棍很牛逼地低头微微一笑对我们说：“哥这叫沧桑，知道不？” 于是，大家集体授予老铁棍一个绰号：万人迷。不仅美女喜欢万人迷，男人也喜欢他，当然也喜欢他的一手好厨艺。如果我们这次要评选什么什么最佳人气奖的话，那最佳得主肯定非老铁棍莫属。和社会上传说的包工头不一样，老铁棍是个很豪爽仗义的人。本来老铁棍决定在家过完中秋节再出发和大家集合，因为我们原计划订的是26号从泸沽湖出发。但我想在泸沽湖环湖徒步，决定提前到达泸沽湖等待大部队，而不是和别的队友一样全部在丽江集合。老铁棍是成都人，有他同行我肯定会方便很多。所以我忽悠老铁棍22号晚上和我一起从成都火车出发去西昌，然后再转汽车去泸沽湖。老铁棍立马答应了。后来我才意识到22号是中秋节感觉不好意思。我俩确定好行程后，老铁棍提前买下了从成都出发去西昌的卧铺车票。但很惭愧地向我道歉，说没买到软卧，只有硬卧车票了。我差点被雷翻。问：你是新驴吧？老铁棍鄂然说：你怎么知道？我说你居然还要坐软卧！老铁棍确实是个不折不扣的新驴，泸沽湖稻城亚丁，这条我梦寐多年的徒步线路，居然是他的入门线路。唉，这世道，变化太快了…… 我曾经问老铁棍为什么会对户外感兴趣。老铁棍说经过多年的打拼，他忽然失去了对生活应有的热情。“我和一个朋友在茶馆聊天聊了整整一个上午，聊理想，聊人生，越聊越感觉生活没什么意思，感觉对生活没啥激情了。一次上天涯，偶然发现了这个出行约伴的帖子，感觉这样的活动不错，就报名了。”老铁棍告诉我。虽然老铁棍对户外的事情不太懂，但丝毫没影响他对团队的热情。他专门买了两本类似《户外圣经》一类的书装在了背包里，打包时就拿出书来比对着看，一边看一边问我对不对。他不仅把我在成都的行程包括吃住玩安排得滴水不漏，而且以自己的热情、体力还有风趣幽默，得到了大家的普遍赞同。以致于团队按原计划在稻城解散后，大部分队友都跟他一起包车回成都了。所以大家在路上感慨地说：包工头不可怕，就怕包工头有文化！这个包工头虽然有文化，但他的四川话讲得和唱歌一样好听，普通话可就不敢恭维了。我俩在泸沽湖一块呆了三天，他担心我听不懂四川话，就努力讲普通话。记得一次租自行车时，他一遍遍地对我说：“走，先去办手术（续），办手术（续）。”我没听明白，旁边一个美女笑喷了：“帅哥，求您了，您还是讲四川话吧！” 泸沽湖稻城亚丁徒步结束后，老铁棍的感受是：无论天堂地狱，如果只是吃饱睡好到达终点，目少了，人生就会很简单。第三章格桑花：怜取眼前人一向年光有限身，等闲离别易销魂。酒筵歌席莫辞频。满目山河空念远，落花风雨更伤春。不如怜取眼前人。千年之前，北宋太平宰相晏殊端着酒杯，赏着歌舞，摇头晃脑地赋下这首词的时候，这位著名的神童不知可曾想到，他的这首词除了被世人传诵之外，精华部分还和一种美丽的花联系了起来。这个花，便是西部高原美丽神奇的花—格桑花。“怜取眼前人”，成为格桑花的花语。从西昌到泸沽湖，山路崎岖难行。人在车中，被颠来颠去，宛如坐轿一般。头昏脑胀之际，不经意间，路边一丛丛连片的白的、粉的、红的花跃入眼帘，自然排列组合的颜色五彩缤纷，分外绚丽。心情顿时兴奋起来。一片片的花儿沿着公路铺陈排比，让人感叹。格桑花，美丽而不娇艳，纤细而不柔弱。当时让我又想起了小五台上的金莲花。西昌到泸沽湖路上的格桑花泸沽湖畔的格桑花格桑花，将泸沽湖畔的公路装饰成了一条彩带格桑花，将泸沽湖畔的公路装饰成了一条彩带第四章格桑花一般美丽的女子格桑花，在藏语中是“幸福”的意思，现在常被喻为女子。话说9月22日晚10点，我和老铁棍一起乘火车奔西昌，早晨6点到西昌。从西昌火车站去长途汽车站，打出租要价15-20元不等。火车站广场上就是个公交车站，乘12路，一元钱，约10来分钟就到了汽车站。老铁棍先去买上了去泸沽湖的汽车票。好玄，只有不多的几张票了。西昌到泸沽湖每天只有一班汽车，上午8：40发车，8点就可以进站上车了，这样能提前放上大包。西昌火车站广场上公交的时候有扒手，需要注意。买上车票，就去对车站对面吃早饭。在这里，居然遇到了另一支从木里穿越去亚丁的驴友。巧合的是，原来我计划跟他们的队伍，但后来因为时间不合适，退出了。居然在这巧遇。在西昌汽车站吃早餐时，遇到了去泸沽湖旅游渡假的小周，顺手捡了，虽然是个男的。上了汽车，老铁棍拿出地图和一本攻略之类的书，我们一起研究在泸沽湖期间的安排。确定大致行程正准备将地图收起来时，一个很动听的女声从后排传来：“帅哥，能借地图一观否？” 老铁棍回头一看，口水立马哗啦啦流了一地……美不美？美不美？这次出行，为防止晒伤，我专门带了副墨镜。没想到，墨镜还有另一个功能，不仅能防止晒伤，还能让人脸皮变厚。戴上墨镜，再戴上有檐帽，一张脸，基本上就遮住一大半了。反正别人看不清我是谁，所以这次出行，我是逢美女便拍！到点了，哈酒去了。想看美女的，请帮俺顶到10页以后。。。。。。谢谢昂~~~ 友情提示：我已和上面的“红妹妹”约，正式成为其经纪人。如有户外品牌商请“红妹妹”做代言人，请和我联系。联系QQ：77586668 联系电话：~~~~~~感谢想看美女的兄弟们顶帖，美女的照片也发了。现在，感谢想看帅哥的姐妹们顶帖。开始发衰哥的照片~~~ 传说中的老铁棍~~~ 保镖兼收队老马，我的好兄弟，下次再一块走个线路，我陪你！傻欧，我们都叫他傻鹅~~~活动召集人：绝地反击，NND，怎么追都追不上！沉稳内敛的阿甘。希望有机会真能同行西沙~~~来自内蒙古的骑士很佩服清泉的耐力和坚韧这些年，走过一些线路，也结识过一些驴友。无论是哪条线路，总有一些风景值得我们驻足，总有一些朋友值得我们感动。在这次泸沽湖稻城亚丁徒步的线路上，子默穿着单薄的冲锋衣怀揣着一包达利圆蛋黄派在风雨中走出营地那么远迎接我们的镜头，总是定格在我的脑海中。子默，如果有下次，如果下次再同行，我一定再给你带烧饼！佳佳猫，在邛引村的垭口，你担心队友在垭口冻感冒，抱着一大抱冲锋衣在风中等了20分钟。虽然你抱的冲锋衣中没有我的那件，但当时还是特别感动。傻丫头啊，你担心别人经过垭口时感冒，怎么你在垭口等了20分钟就不担心你自己呢？第五章泸沽湖：难忘那一夜的《爱情》到达泸沽湖镇以后，我们包车到了大嘴村的一家客栈。安排好住宿，我们在周边走了走。客栈的饭菜比较简单，本来想吃条泸沽湖打的鲜鱼，可店老板趴在地上，撅着腚用个网兜在一个小得不能再小的水坑里捞了半天后，摇了摇头：“那条鱼哪去了呢？”晕。。。。。于是我们包车赶到相对比较繁华的洛洼村去吃晚饭。洛洼村商业气息比较浓，恍若闹市。饭后，租了辆自行车去看演出，但到达时已近尾声。随后，我们决定骑自行车回大嘴村。 9月23日，农历八月十六。一轮圆月挂在天际，月光如洗。路边的草海一片朦胧，一条条猪槽船泊在岩边，仿佛置身幻境。从洛洼到泸沽湖镇，柏油路宽阔平坦，没有陡坡，即使有坡，也是缓慢地上升和下降，非常适合骑行。泸沽湖的夜晚非常宁静，行人也不多见。特别是下坡的时候，就那么毫无顾忌地直冲而下，很爽。我们住宿的客栈依水而建，院子里一个茶亭，一个酒水吧，均依水而筑，平静辽阔的水面尽收眼底。客栈的房间内是没有热水的。坐了一天的车，又骑了那么远的自行车，我便拿上水杯去酒水吧冲咖啡。刚下楼，就听到酒水吧里传来叮叮咚咚的吉他声。循声望去，客栈的二老板，正对着电脑用心地弹吉他。他弹的曲子我不熟悉，但回头看了看他眼前电脑屏幕上的曲目，赫然发现两个字：《爱情》。二老板个头不高，梳着分头，戴着副黑框眼镜，留着胡须，显得又黑又瘦，脚上则拖着双拖鞋。我说明来意，二老板放下吉他，摁下电热壶的开头后，继续面无表情地回去弹奏他的《爱情》。我不知道二老板的经历，也不知道他为什么来这个泸沽湖畔小小的一家客栈来做所谓的“二老板”。但很显然，此刻的他正陶醉在自己的精神世界里，不以物喜，不以己悲。甚至连我伸出的大拇指，都没有个礼节性的反应。这个酒水吧就建在泸沽湖的边上，高出水面约有半米，吧内并排放着几张因破烂而似乎很沧桑的桌子和长条椅，墙壁上则贴着一些驴友或者游客的照片。窗外，明亮而柔和的月光下，微风轻拂，泸沽湖水面荡着层层涟渏。一切都那么宁静，除了这低沉的吉他声，和二老板自顾自低声吟唱的《爱情》。因时间已晚，没有客人，酒水吧内光线昏暗。我冲好咖啡，选了个离二老板有一定距离且光线更加昏暗的桌子坐了下来，临窗伏桌而坐，看着远处若隐若现的水面，发呆。轻轻的风从一扇扇开着的窗户吹进来，细微的波声清脆而缈小。和着二老板弹奏的吉他声和低沉的歌声，突然感觉走进了一个隐居的世界。眯上眼睛，身心感觉那么地放松。从所谓正统和主流的角度来看，这个深夜躲在群山环绕的泸沽湖畔僻静之处客栈里一个僻静角落里自顾自弹奏自己的吉他吟唱自己的《爱情》的青年，肯定属于“垮掉的一代”。是的，他们不一定有远大的理想，也不一定有济世匡国的抱负，甚至，也不一定有现代企业家那样的事业追求。他就是那么无所事事地经营着自己的客栈——不，也不是经营，因为他对客人没有明显的热情和殷勤。他只是守着这个小小的客栈，在一个静静的月圆之夜，面对着一湖碧水，抱一把吉他，吟唱着自己的《爱情》，守护着自己的精神家园。远方的那个女子，你是否听到了这来自遥远的泸沽湖畔的歌声？我忽然又陷入了迷茫之中：这是心灵的颓废，还是心灵的放逐？从小学到中学到大学，及至参加工作后，很多人一直被正统和主流的思想所灌输，所左右。我们可能有了所谓的财富，有了所谓的地位，有了所谓的事业，甚至有了一整套规范自己和规范他人的世界观和方法论，但我们的精神世界却可能一日日地开始荒芜。那一晚，泸沽湖畔的吉他声一直响到很晚。回到房间，我始终无法入睡。那吉他声，冲击的不是耳膜，而是内心。([]

人在旅途野味丁烦闷的日子里总想写首诗送给你却总是静不下心于是带着你遥远的祝福踏上川流在风景线中的列车在你生活的海洋中去寻找温馨的港湾 2012年10月烦闷的一天,突然决定去离我较近的桂林、阳朔去走一走,于是,打好包,下午说走就走... 午饭后,在广东连南瑶族自治县的广场上了去连山的车,准备在那里再转车去广西贺州,那里车多好拦车。下车后在连山一家小店买了瓶饮料,问了年轻貌美的女店主还有没有去广西贺州的车,她说还有(所有去贺州方向的车都要经过她店铺门口),她让我在她店门口等,说很快就会有车来,还给我一把椅子让坐下来等... 在等待过程中我开始找话和她聊天,得知她原来还在东莞某房地产公司做过中层管理,是个白领。我原来在深圳可是呆了18年,珠三角地区几乎跑遍了,自然我们有话聊了。那女孩是连山本地人,家人为了催她回家结婚,才逼她回来家乡的,小县城没有什么好工作可做,就自己开始了创业,开了一间专门卖阳江刀的小店,由于位置偏,生意不好做,加上男朋友又不顾店,喜欢打麻将,使得女孩十分苦恼,对前途感到渺茫,不知如何是好。她告诉我,在东莞追她的成功男人很多...偏偏回到家乡找了个不争气的男友。我留下了她的手机号码,想进一步和她联系,车也来了,我上了去贺州的车,准备在贺州扎营,第二天再坐车去阳朔的,可是上了车,计划全变了...因为又发生了一个故事... 车在傍晚7点多钟到了贺州车站,我在最后下车,下车后有个女孩站在大巴车门口突然问我"你下一站去哪里"？我说";我先去找个地方扎营,然后,第二天再转车去阳朔"。"那你去不黄姚古镇啊"?那女孩问我。我说"我没有打算去黄姚古镇";。我心想,你不会是拉客的吧!?她说"你可以先去黄姚古镇,然后再去阳朔啊"!我说"我没去过,不知离这里有多远,而且天黑了又没有公交车去了,打的士会很贵的"。那女孩说";我一看你上车背那个包就知道你是个资深驴友,我也是玩户外的,我家就在住在黄姚古镇附近"。我听那女孩这样一说,我立刻化解了对她警惕性,于是,我就和她聊开了... 原来那女孩是回家来参加堂弟的结婚大喜事,以前经常带驴友去她家扎营,那女孩人很热情,又在大巴车上认识一个中途在路上上车的一个来南方"漂泊游荡"的新驴,之所以说他是新驴,是因为那男孩第一次出远门玩"户外";,让朋友在网上花了600元把帐篷、睡袋、背包、防潮垫全部买好了。后来,在我的指导下又重新买了个背包。后面细说。那女孩把那男孩叫过来跟我认识时,那男孩手里拖着一个行李车,到我身边一细看,行李车上拖着的是一个户外包。我见他的第一句话便是"我还没有见过拖着户外登山包玩户外的。那男孩姓林,让我们叫他"小林"。我问小林去不去黄姚古镇,他说,他听我的。然后,我问了那女孩,包车去需要多少钱,问到车价格合算的话,我们就去,结果,问到一个顺路要回家的黄车司机,约30元一个人,于是,我们三个人就上了去黄姚古镇方向附近的私家车,那私家车为了多赚钱,又拉了二个上来,一部小车就这样挤进了5个人。在路上,我问女孩怎么称呼她，她说叫她百合书好了。在聊天过程中，既然得知百合书认识我一个深圳登协一个领队班一起参加培训的同学"风景",真是无巧不成书啊!天下如此之小。于是,我们聊得更加投缘... 晚上，我们到了百合家里。百合书说明天一大早天不亮就要起来带我们走山路徒步二小时去黄姚古镇逃票进去。这个左面的女孩就是百合书,我们去黄姚古镇的徒步路上,还有小林... 百合书带我们成功逃票进了黄姚古镇后,还要忙着去找她妹妹一起赶集市采购食品回家办酒席,就交待了我回程的线路有二条,一条是坐车弯路绕道回去,还有一条就是原路徒步翻山返回。我和小林一直逛到下午就早早地徒步返回。介绍一下小林小林家在吉林,家族做药品生意,由于不好做,生意萧条就出来到南方走走,完全没有目的性,买到广州的火车票在韶关就下火车了,去了南华寺、丹霞山后,又边走边搭车到了连州,准备往广西方向走,走在路上累了就随手拦截到了,我和百合书同坐的大巴车,我是倒数第二个中途上车的,小林是最后一个上车的。我和小林下午从古镇回来后,上到我们扎营的二楼平顶上吃惊发现,我的帐篷被鞭炮炸出来5、6个小洞,仔细检查才发现都是帐篷门帘处烧坏了,不影响我的行程和野外露营,这事情我也没有告诉百合书,我是沾了她家的喜事了。又在书家楼顶上露了一晚上,第二天一大早百合书的爸爸用摩托车拉我和小林,分两次把我们拉到十几公里的路边去搭车到阳朔,还把司机师傅的电话号码告诉了我,在此,我借此机会向热心的百合书和她朴实的父亲深深道个谢!感谢一天二夜在她家的吃住和热情接待...

在08奥运年的盛夏，奥运火炬即将传递到丽江的前夕，我们一群网上约好的驴伴，通过丽江云行户外俱乐部的组织共同来到了向往已久的丽江古城，开始为期半个月的彩云之南的自助游旅行，当我第一天踏上丽江古城，就被这具有悠久历史和灿烂的民族文化丽江古城所吸引。白墙青瓦的明清建筑，小桥流水的高原水乡，浓郁民族特色的纳西族风情，如同油画般湛蓝色的天空，都令我们如流年忘返，在都市钢筋水泥森林中呆惯了的我们，见到如此美，仿佛来到了另一个时空，来到了真正的世外桃源。在丽江时间的仿佛是静止的，可以不必想那些繁杂的工作，不必被紧张的生活节奏压得喘不过气来，在这里可以晒晒太阳，喝喝茶，真正的享受宁静、古朴、舒适的生活。这是我见到的最大片的古城建筑，让我觉得很震憾，感叹丽江古城名不虚传！大片大片的明清时期的古建筑，仿佛自遥远时空而来，错入今日古城。丽江古城据说有七百多年的历史了，但在很早以前默默无闻，无人知晓，使丽江古城出名的是在九六年发生的次大地震，这次地震虽然摧毁了这座古城部人的家园，但让世人从此知道了丽江，也因祸得福，成就了丽江古城成为世界文化遗产。这是***词的：世界文化遗产—丽江古城在古城的任意位置，都可以看到高耸入云的玉龙雪山！这是进入古城的帜—大水车。很多人知道古城都有是从大水车开始的，最早我也是看到宣传丽江古城第一张图片就是大水车，这次亲眼见到，就迫不及待的拍了下来。大水车是古城的入口，进入古城的水流也是从这里进入古城的，古城很大，错综复杂，但据说掌握一个简单规律就不会迷路：顺水进城，逆水出城。看到流进古城的水推动巨大的水车，就明白了这句话的意思。丽江古城没有城墙，也没有对称的中轴线，街道的走向更是没有规律可寻，初到古城的人，感觉哪里都一样，如同一个巨大的迷宫，一会就找不到方向了。不过据经验的驴友说，古城的中心是四方街，只要找到了四方街，就基本能确定方位了。这是清晨的四方街，我之前一直以为是条长长的街，原来不是，四方街只是一个小小的方场，在很久以前这里曾是古城的集贸市场，现在也是古城最热闹的地方。清晨的四方街，游客稀少，比较适合拍照。到了中午四方街就开始热闹起来，穿着民族服装的纳西老太太，自发的组织起在四方街跳传统的舞蹈，吸引众多游客驻足观看，一些游人忍不住参予其中，手拉手与她们一起欢快的跳起来在丽江每天可见湛蓝的天空，如同水洗过一样，这是在城市所见不到的，就算是有点蓝天，也是带着灰蒙蒙。圣洁的玉龙雪山，位于古城的北面，是丽江纳西族的神山，终年积雪。蓝蓝的天，洁白的云朵，幽静的古城、清澈的溪流，新鲜纯净的空气，多么理想的人居环境，看来这里才是最适合于人类居住的地方。我们的都市，环境破坏严重，空气污浊，高得离谱的房价，与这里比起来，更本不是什么高质量的生活，看来我迟早有一天会要逃离城市。挂满红灯笼的酒吧一条街是古城的另一大特色，很早以前就听说丽江是艳遇之城，酒吧估计就是滋生艳遇的重要场所吧。不过这里的泡吧、艳遇呀都与小女子无关，我是冲着丽江古城的人文风情来的，我更看重这里的自然之美，白天的酒吧一条街，基本上没有什么人，显得很清幽！从大水车来的水流把酒吧一条街一分为二，中间用小木桥连接起来，水渠傍种着各种花草以及翠绿的柳树。酒吧一条街大约有十几家大大小小的酒吧，每个酒吧的名字都有一翻来历。]这是古城最早的酒吧—樱花屋，据说也是艳遇指数最高的酒吧，没试过，不清楚！这个是“一米阳光”，我就是从孙俪主演的这部电视剧，第一次知道有丽江这么美的地方!“千里走单骑”这是大导演老谋子在丽江拍的一部由高仓健主演的电影，看来这里酒吧的老板个个精明，善于借鸡生蛋哦！夜幕降临，在多彩的灯光点缀下，古城的夜景更显妖饶晚上的酒吧一条街成为了古城最热闹的地方，一排排红色的灯笼散发出暧昧、诱惑的光芒，在灯红酒绿之间, 各色红男绿女穿梭其中。震耳欲聋的音乐声，早已打破了这里白天的宁静，创造出歌舞升平的气氛！不过我很厌倦这种嘈杂的感觉，感觉和城市的D厅没什么两样，所以也只在外面看看，没有兴趣进入其中。早早的睡了，也是为了早早的起来，清晨的古城，街上没有一个人，商铺也全都关着门，这才找到了古城的宁静的感觉，古城的街道都是五花石铺砌而成，散发出冷冷的光泽，默默记录的古城历史。古城的建筑全都是土木结构，连成一排，而且都不会超过二层，据说这是为了防震，想起来，丽江古城就是地震才出名的。现在古城据说还有三万多长住人口，不过外来人点的比例也越来越高，原住民是越来越少，所以只能在古城深入才可以见到一些当地人的民居由于旅游开发，当地的原住民把自家的房子租给外来人做旅社或者商铺，自己则拿着高昂的租金到新城去买商品房，住了一辈子木房子的本地人现在更喜欢新城的楼房。如同钱钟书的《围城》里的人一样，城里的人想出去，城外的人想进来。做为初次来丽江的我，也有一种冲动，想找一个古老的小院，留下来，当一回丽江人！丽江古城是超大，但开发的也很比较商业化，但旅游开发本就是一把双刃剑，如果不开发不宣传，我们又怎能知道有这么美丽的地方，这里一直会贫穷落后下去，不被世人所知。但宣传好的，名气大了，来的游客多了，又破坏掉这里原汁原味的感觉。最明显的开发就是丽江古城的客栈，据说现在有上千家，从几十元到数千元各种档次的都有，满足不同层次人的需求。当然没有这些客栈，我们就只能住新城，不能真真实实的感受古城的魅力，这里可能有人又会抱怨为什么古城里不搞一些酒店方便游客，但客栈多了，古城的原住民都搬到新城去了，这样古城又被外来文化所占据，总之在开发和保护上，我们的政府有太多的事情需要做。在来之前我也做了不少功课，力求找一家性价比高的客栈，我对客房的要求首先是要干净卫生，其次是服务要好，当然价格也不能太高。毕竟我也是工薪阶层，不是拿公款来腐败的，看了很多家，有些条件真的不错，但价格太高了，都要200-300，还有一些便宜的，但感觉太破旧，出来玩，住的很重要，总不能在这方面虐待自己吧。后来终于选定一家驴友们都推荐的丽江云行丽江户外俱乐部，看了相片，感觉不错，价格也符合自己的心里价位，于是上网联系，客服很热情的回答了我的各种问，第一感觉就是他们很专业，这是他们客栈的院子，据说他们有三家分店，这家是最好的，院子虽然不是很大，但白墙青瓦，飞檐翘角，传统的纳西族民居。充满精致与温馨，有种小家碧玉的感觉！我是从这里查到这家客栈 www.sanjiangclub.com 驴友都评价不错，我发现自己的选择也是明智的！客栈位于一条小巷内，距古城中心四方街也很近，虽然处于中心地带，但这里一点也不嚣闹，非常宁静，很适合我这种喜欢安静的人。房间也不错，温馨浪漫，设施齐全，有液晶电脑和免费电话，符合我需要天天上网和电话与公司保持联系，省了我不少长话费。最有意思的，当我睡觉的时间，居然发现房顶开了天窗，拉开天窗的帘子，可以看到满天的繁星，在城市灰蒙蒙的天空中，连月亮都难得一见，更别说星星的，看来丽江环境确实保持的不错，光看晚上的纯净的星空就知道了。丽江的时间似乎是静止的，在这里一切都过得很慢，没有城市的暄嚣与浮躁，躺在摇椅晒晒太阳也是一种享受，这是我最喜欢坐的摇椅！这家丽江云行户外俱乐部经常组织驴友结伴出去玩，我选择了一条他们推荐的最经典的一条线路，香格里拉、梅里雪山、雨崩六日游。“香格里拉”一词，是1933年美国小说家詹姆斯·希尔顿（James Hilton）在小说《消失的地平线》中所描绘的一块永恒和平宁静的土地。是个有雪峰峡谷、金碧辉煌且充满神秘色彩的庙宇、被森林环绕着的宁静的湖泊、美丽的大草原及牛羊成群的世外桃源。我去的地方有没有这么美了，但看了他们给我看拍的相片，我决定走这条线路，同行的还有网上约好的一些驴友，不过大部分都是女生，我们这个队女多男少，用他们的话来说，就是美女团，总之我们都对我接下来的行程充满着期待。这是我们行程的第一个景点，好象是香格拉观景台，具体不记得了，不过在这里视野开阔，可以同时见到玉龙和哈巴雪山。右边是香格里拉的哈巴雪山，左边是丽江的玉龙雪山，中间是著名的金山沙，这是哈巴雪山主峰！右边是玉龙，第一次见到这么高的雪山很是激动，不过领队说，当我们见到梅里雪山时，就觉得这不算什么雪山了。观景台下的一座小寺庙，不过我们没有进去烧香，因为我们对香格里拉的松赞林寺更有兴趣离开了观景台，我们来到了著名的长江第一湾，金沙江来到了丽江的石鼓，突然来了一个百多度的急转弯，掉头折向东北，形成罕见的“Ｖ”字形大弯，人们称此为“长江第一湾”。正是因为这个湾改变了长江的流向，成为哺育中华大地的母亲河，可惜相机的广角不够，拍不全，不能完全展示出长江第一湾的波澜壮阔！万里长江，从“世界屋脊”青藏高原奔腾而下，由滇西北进入云南，与澜沧江、怒江一起，一直并肩在横断山脉的高山深谷中穿行，形成举世闻名的三江并流奇观。金沙江是长沙的上游，以江为界这边是丽江区域，对面则是香格里拉区域。感叹云南真是风水宝地，世界奇观在此风云集会，难怪旅游资原如此丰富！金沙经过长沙第一湾后，便流入玉龙和哈巴雪山之间，形成世界最深的峡谷之一虎跳峡！这是高耸入云的玉龙雪山金沙江如同一条碧绿的飘带穿行在两座海拨高于5000米的雪山之间，江面距离雪山顶峰的垂直落差有3000多米，难怪有世界最深的峡谷之称！从哈巴雪山冰川融化的水形成的瀑布，这条瀑布的水落入虎跳峡，与金沙江融为一体，然后金沙江一直向东流，最后到达上海，汇入东海，看来这条瀑布也是长江的小源头之一了！虎跳峡分为上中下三段，这是虎跳峡的上虎跳，也是平常旅行社到达的地方，江中那块巨石就是虎跳石，据说以前有一只猛虎就是从对面的悬崖跃到这块巨石上，然后跳到对面的岸边，这也是虎跳峡名字的由来。绝大部分游客就在这里欣赏虎跳峡的风彩。但熟不知，更壮观震憾事实上是在中虎跳峡，但出于安全和成本的问，旅行社都不会前往中虎跳峡。还好我选择的是户外俱乐部，可以跟着他们去虎跳峡最壮观的中虎跳。延绵数十公里长的虎跳峡谷从公路上拍到的中虎跳峡谷底这是中虎跳峡的天桥，在峡谷之间横空出世一座桥，从谷底向上看，仿佛在天上。事实上这是一座公路桥，连接峡谷两岸，这样虎跳峡的村民，也可以开车出峡谷了，更多的生活物资也可以通过公路运进虎跳峡！中虎跳峡的一线天，大自然的鬼斧神工把江两岸悬崖削的几乎垂直于江面，象一扇巨大的石门，迎接金沙江的汹涌的激流！滚滚的长江水，奔腾而下，激流形成的巨大声响，震耳欲聋，响彻整个峡谷！激流撞击在岩石上激起阵阵水雾，飘在脸上，清爽宜人！中虎跳峡谷底的巨石，据说这是第二虎跳峡，不清楚老虎也从这里跳过来过。现在水量较小，石头露出来，如果到了汛期，水量大的可以把整个石头都盖住！波涛汹涌的长江水一直向东流，哺育长江两岸的人民，成为华夏大地的第一大江！徙步中虎跳峡的栈道，栈道是古人在悬崖上凿开的路，约有一米多宽，我们必须小心翼贴着里面走，朝外则是数百米深的悬崖，悬崖的谷底则是虎跳峡急湍的金沙江！虎跳峡最惊险的一段，中虎跳峡的天梯，天梯几乎是垂直的，高约二十多米，没有什么防护措施，还是比较危险的，不过傍边有小路，可以绕道过去，一些有恐高的驴友都不敢爬这个天梯！胆大的驴友都上此天梯，当然这其中也包括我，谁叫我天生喜欢挑战。事实上爬天梯也没那么恐怖，只要不看下面，一口气爬上去，也不觉得有什么！徙步完虎跳峡，我们就开始前住香格里拉，从虎跳峡到香格里拉约有二个多小时的车程，不过路上的风景也不错，这里在公路上拍到的雪山！这是香格里拉的哈巴雪山主峰，海拨：5396米，这座雪山终年积雪，从远看一顶皇冠，在香格里拉有“金子之花”的美称。因为这座雪山的难度较低，每年有很多登山爱好者，来登这座雪山，也是入门级的登顶雪山！我们的车马上就到了梦想中的香格里拉，这是在车上拍到的香格里拉的村庄，领队说现在是香格里拉杜鹃花开得最旺的时候，不久就能到花海了！([]
