My Tibet Tour (4) --- advance Everest
Ride from Golmud to Tibet, taking into account the time and route of compact convergence, we pass through Tibet when hung on the early out of the car, visit the holy lake Nam Co finished, geothermal wonders of non-stop ride back to Lhasa after Yangbajing, plateau response and a long the way the car bumps along the road let me exhausted, so that five-day tour of the Mount Everest has quite afraid of, his companions rushed to boost the morale of me, so looking at the uncertainty and the desire that I and four companions back to Lhasa embarked on a tour Everest the second day of the journey.
Tibet, the country road may be the worst. As the plateau is located, easy to landslides during the rainy season in Tibet rarely trim a large spacious roads, winding mountain roads are mostly snake-like simple, even in the country, and also the winding is full of dust you are a dirty sand. Toyota 62-type off-road vehicle with us for the ride the high mountains, riding grasslands, see Brahmaputra and enjoy local customs, in the curved steep washboard road for a day and a half has finally come to the foot of Mount Everest-wing Buddhist temple, I got out later, we found each other have been is unkempt, find any, on the car's luggage is not far behind places Houxiang covered with dust.
Rong Monastery is the world's highest allocation of Shanghai temple, Buddhist temple guest houses in the wing that we take a break for a while after they drove rushed to the Everest base camp. On the road there is a joyfully flowing stream, the driver said that the stream is melting glaciers on Mount Everest formed and filled with a few mouthfuls of off stream recover from fatigue, said stream wonders, can cure altitude sickness, flu-like fever and other diseases, but few of us lazy sun-baked, and nest in the vehicle no action.
Quickly to the Everest base camp, and at first glance, the humble headquarters of dreaming is just pitched a solitary sign that reads, "Chu Mu Lama Peak base camp 5200 meters." Everest has been several magnificent mountains Dangzhe, can not fully see its true colors, how the people feel that not enough have thoroughly enjoyed themselves. So we decided to step resettlement lie in the Everest climb several mountains before the list of the true faces of Mount Everest. Still confused fever, he and the driver left us at the camp pending. Glaciers, the sick ducks, little high, I have four hit the road, I looked at his watch, June 16, afternoon 2.30 pm.
Rong monastery to the base camp on the way I have also complained about the weather is too hot and straight, clothes off another off, then I could add a further straight tremble sweater, the wind blowing relentlessly, I surrounded the head scarf for sun protection against headaches and cold wind blowing, Made in, glaciers, sick ducks have been time for a lot in front of me, I hurried to speed up the pace can not walk a few steps, chest tightness, and wheezing held down I had to stop to "kick into gear," asthma for several tone, and good to look back, the small high still Dangling go? I can not help but lighter tone.
On the road, very few people travel, in addition to a few lively figure of the foreigner, I only saw two wild dogs and several head of yaks in the mountains bare, almost no vegetation, only piles of gigantic stones. Then came the road more and more difficult of the big rock blocking my avenue is the old me some work before a big charge through. Is not far away, catch a glimpse of a glacier and an icicle,冰清玉洁to stand in the foot of Mount Qomolangma, beautiful, as if calling to us. At this time, small high-strength a little bit a moral one, and he waved as we have indicate that he no longer before the trip, and I have some fear of being dragged into the one lone, hastened to the glacier, the sick ducks to move closer.
Walked about two kilometers, glaciers measured using GPS measurements of altitude, 5260 meters, height and did not increase in number, Keren got the feeling it increasingly difficult to breathe, I have some regret carry only took a camera, water and dry rations were not Shao Shang, since then, due to excessive physical exertion, the belly has been hunger and thirst, and good news is there is a version of ice pockets ginseng, with no small skill of a sense of great help, so I used to ask a few pieces together to the mouth Bariset, did not expect American ginseng down the glacier became my life-saving straw.
Longer follow a short, white glaciers on the show in front of us, it Nagarze different glacial geomorphology of canola, which reversed image of a pool of frozen water above the knot over a block of small icicles shining brilliantly, while the beads peaks have absolutely shattered exhaustive display in front of us, it threw a piece of snow-white robe, holy inviolability, glaciers and the sick ducks the lens pointed at them mercilessly, and I, sitting on the hill, respiratory Lala Direct breath, and has promised the three would like to. Who although headache Yu Lie, but very grateful that adherence to and small victories.
Glaciers and sick ducks continue to move forward to find the best photo points (they really are very persistent, very perseverance), I decided to aim for home alone. Just down the mountain, I feel a bit sorry that a person's journey lonely really hard to be forward to see if they have no trace of. Along the way, uninhabited, I have a rock in the mountains to cruise to cruise down the mountain no pinpoint an ideal line, fear slowly eroding me (Oh, do not laugh at me, was really scared), in vain want to pick up the phone relatives to call, but found that this is not the reality, mobile phones simply do not signal! Mindful that sat in the car waiting for us to play the fool, must have worried about at this time, I can not help but to burst into tears, Zheng Zheng, and may tear it down, but found that this When tears are the most unwise, not only can not solve the problem, but also increase the altitude sickness, my breathing has become increasingly tight in!
Turned up the hill from the valley, from the mountains to the valley through, toss the Hao Bantian I finally found the light: I saw our car! Burst of joy not yet finished, the back came the cries of "Cristiano Ronaldo, Ronaldinho," I was surprised the next look, small high behind his back calling me! It turned out he only recently in place a long downhill walk Hou is really a good thing attached a good thing! I am excited that asked him loudly asked him that, did not ask them, strong plateau the response to patronize me, I originally had Meng Gu Zhao happy to speak!
Relaxation under a hanging heart, I rest assured in the valley picking some beautiful stones pastime, not far away, there's shadow slowly closer to me, a closer look, the original is confused! Take a look at watches, has 5.30 a!
Drink a big warm cup of tea, I curled up in a moving car do not want to move, remember not mind hanging back glaciers, the sick ducks, fast 6:00 pm, in the distance two thin figure slowly to us moving, confused a look at: Big Sister, Brother they duck back!
Everest, we finally look up to your style!
