Passion drift
If you go travel, you can in almost all areas of water to see such signs of "passion drift", especially over the mountains in Guizhou plateau in this province. Last summer I went to play for a week in Guiyang, and finally to experience a moment - passion drift.
Guizhou is a mountainous area, all of them are listed from the plane of the ups and downs in the size of the green mountains. As long as there are mountains there is water, so mountainous Guizhou Province, while the water abound. Was the end of July, is wang water period, plus three four days ago, have a big typhoon over from Guizhou, bringing abundant rain, so all the water throughout the Guizhou are sublime. Huangguoshu waterfall a few miles away hears the roar available, whitecaps churn splash, is said to be a few years have not been spectacular; Huangguoshu baishuihe flow down to the underground river qixingqiao become first sneaked into the underground, and from the risk pools more than three meters in diameter to form a large fountain gushed, and then felt he was wronged by the Mustang like, like wild uninhibited manner Pentium away; to go when you pass Chishui Zhi Jindong River bridge from the river there are tens of meters high, the shore 2 Shan Xiang Zhi, it seems to be hard out of the water to a river, a surge of sub-Anjin scour the river mud, it really was suffused with dark red, due to a deep river bed, water flow is not quite appear to be so anxious, looking a little bit is very insidious feeling.
Of water into the stream, you can float with the flow naturally. In Guiyang near the drift from one day there are several points. According to local friend's introduction, we have chosen the water a clean up with the Luo North River.
Drift day the weather was very nice with a slight point clouds, the temperature at 28 degrees. I wore a vest, the pants, a pair of very spirit of the short dress. Originally thought stripe bath towel from the hotel, and joy are forgotten. Get on a small tour bus, watching the Luo North River drift brochures, very, very excited. The car over the mountains to open for nearly two hours to reach the starting point of drift, in order to protect my leather sandals, I spent two locals buy a pair of straw sandals compiled, very rough, a little foot-binding, but the feeling was put on very good. After listening to safety education, the glasses legs tied at the future with the rubber band, I and my husband seized the suddenness of a thunderbolt only a three-person boat, I sat in front of every other bar, her husband sat middle, boatman In the boat tail. Boatmen wood pulp that offshore boats away.
Here we must introduce the drift with the tools: rubber boats, three, five, seven, full-boat made by a very sturdy rubber boat to help, and the middle compartment column is made of inflatable boat at the end of thin, that is, a layer of leather, not inflated; two wooden paddle, used to control the speed, direction, when necessary, can be used to call about the shore, rocks or other boats splashing water; a life jacket per person, of course, fell into the water when the life-saving use of the. Each boat is equipped with a professional boatman, who are the local Montagnards, all of them are the waves where IOUs-level swimmer, to be responsible for our entire drift of navigation and safety.
Inflatable boat from the shore, our boat boat Exalted less light, just behind the boat into the water when the water splashed many people relied on us, not long after we are leading them to tens of meters, far beyond the range of. Listen to boatmen speaking, we drift, a total distance of 36 kilometers, the former half of the shallow flow of emergency, and we sat down floating in rubber boats, the latter half of the small Three Gorges said the steep mountains, deep water flows slowly, we must transfer steamer, along the river to enjoy light mountains.
Sure enough, the water is very clear, less than two meters deep river rock can all be seen, the more shallow water, the better they can turn spray (with similar people). About one kilometer off-shore, we encountered the first one down the water.
Down the water with the waterfall is the same, that is water all of a sudden with the film formed. Is said to drop in the 20 meters (10 meters?) Above is called waterfall, a small drop of water is called down. Accordance with the boatmen of education, rubber boats, jump down the water when the people need from the bar up and down to the boat cabin compartment, can not sit down, because the bottom is thin, only the boat cabin crouched, his hands grasp the edge of the handle the boat, to ensure safety.
This fall one meter of water is more of a gap, I am sitting in the boat because the top of the first to feel the boat at the end, leave the water, volley of that moment I cried a bit scared, a little bit more of a mysterious nervous the excitement, this is probably the so-called stimulus bar. Excited in a very short time disappeared, hull contact with water, once again, when high waves splashing, filling me full one, at the time to swallow the (okay, where water quality is very clean). Lane is also filling the boat for almost a half tank of water, the body of the clothes is all wet.
Guizhou is a place where climate is pleasant, the winter is not too cold nor too hot in summer. Can not be pleasant at that time, and had not had a get together with hot water, when our boat when the child moved to shady areas, mountain Fengyi Chui, could not help but I played a goose bumps.
Slipped through a few such water, our boats had already been filled with water, the speed is also slow a lot, so we have a slow boat down the beach at three individuals work together to make the child turned the boat over, down水.
Going forward a few hundred meters to a boatman on the entire range of said one of the biggest fall of water, sub-2, with a total drop in more than six meters, and asked that we do not Gone with the Wind Gone with the Wind, are said to have many visitors choosing to go around from the shore The. In fact, quite afraid of my heart, according to my knowledge, six-meter height is two floors, and is tantamount to sitting on the ground from the third floor of the kayak jump - a bit mysterious. But since to drift, not really what does it mean that loss of stimulation, and a little one worth pondering, we decided, Gone with the Wind! The two of us were all boatmen squatting is good, catch on, but in order to maintain a balanced center of gravity, he wanted my husband to sit in the bow, I sat in the middle. Then a small paddle Yi Bai, down toward the water, crossed out. The first stage is about two meters, slightly-point slope, rubber boats, slipped to a very high speed. This time, I could not even scream soon as no enough time, the ship on an even faster pace washed down almost vertically down to the second level. The second level there are four meters foot drop, but also the most difficult part is that, down the water flow in front of the following that there was a large stone block in the water on the road, that is, that our small boat to settle down after a very short period of time balanced and from the left and quickly to bypass the big piece of stone. All this all depends on a good and experienced a good boatman, we made it! When the rubber dinghy around a smooth rock, and reach the gentler areas of water, we not help but burst into cheers. Looking back we jumped to the water this fall, it is really scared. Look from below, blocking his way in the big piece of stone is very large, almost completely blocks waterways, and that two of the fall of water, especially the second one, is simply Falls Well - Fei Liu Mashimo 3000 millimeters, the suspect Galaxy fall nine days! Haha, Li Bai must have passed out.
Is a time when we celebrate the victory, the latter a few boats also went to the top of the water this fall, some are down to dancing, while others are still top cruise (2 boats will need to maintain a certain time interval). Even our five boats, including, in this water is turned down two more miserable a boat in which there are seven individuals who had just down to the first level, our boatman would say for sure: they must capsize of the ! When asked why he has not had time, we see the Na Tiaochuan really turned, and seven all fell into the water, and even the boat with a water had been pushed to the front piece of big rock, then people slipped out one by one Daoshi a, but the rubber boats have been a huge momentum flow squeeze stone heads, they toss a few feet for several minutes before pulling out. At this point I really want to embrace our boatman, his technology can be nice! Asked him how he knew the ship would be turned, he said: "Next to the first grade when their boat tasikmalaya had. Vessels to a tasikmalaya definitely turning."
Our feelings at this time is twelve to happy, jumped the highest or water, and there is no capsize. Then they moved to the sunny side of the body nice and warm sun, I am excited side of the cabin with the hat and scoop out the water while thinking, this must be the most exciting trip hop has. . .
Inflatable boat move on, looking at trees along the Castle Peak blue sky and white clouds, occasional 35 mountain children playing in the water's edge, but also to see had several pairs of duck-like waterfowl, I feel the breeze rippling between green water, drifting forward.
Quickly to the second largest fall of water, listening to boatmen say that the slightly smaller than the first one a little bit, there are five meters, can be divided into two, but a "of the" shape and not so straight, but a water slide. The language gives me the feeling is smooth, and I once again look forward to that feeling of excitement. However, the Guizhou mountains are so lovely, Luo North River is so cute, they give me much more than I look, this time much much more.
Approaching or water when the water gradually from the slow emergency and onto the left bank. When approaching the shore, when suddenly turn to the right of an approximately ninety degrees of the chicane, and then call in a boat on the whereabouts of a down, my heart should be so raised up call to look at. Without waiting for my heart back into place, dinghies with water Youxiang left with a degree bend, into the gap more than three meters of water slides. Really feel so cool, ears listening to the voices of current rush to rock, mixed with my husband happy is called howling, and I could not help shouting aloud, YA - HOHO! Sounds hardly ever, slide the bottom of the bow was a huge waves knocked over. I do not know how's going on, they fell into the water, head down straight sink.
At this time thanks to that invincible life jackets on, while I was a kid learning to swim to keep in mind the only one principle, "must hold their breath under water," is also a great help. I Bijin mouth, the cry of fear in the body where strict control, but also to control the boiling water in vitro. Then I felt slowly turned over, my wrists, and feet tread a few below, no Dengzhe the end of the hand in the above Huala replaced. Huh? Touched something, and then touch is a rubber boat - I had detained the following disembarkation. I was afraid of them, desperately Grilled hand the rubber boat to one side, eyes bright, my brain has surfaced! With the rubber band tied to the head of the glasses has now been thoroughly washed, and I look around, the original relative living in a relatively slow water flow into the small pools, water slides that have been away from 10 meters distance. My dear husband is not far from where I looked and looked, looked very anxious in the loud call my name. Our boatmen on the one hand with a rubber boat overturned at the end of a handle, the other hand paddled over the water swim to me. My face looks green were the two of them get on shore.
After determining I was not hurt, my husband and the boatman turned over the boat together, and then come to us on board things. First retrieve two wood pulp is a half bottle of mineral water, I pick up a half-Road bamboo water gun disappeared, while the disappearance of my husband's shoe. That day, he wore a pair of sandals and slippers, I bought him from Germany, when it took 40 marks (nearly 200 yuan of money), the key is that pair of shoes especially comfortable, he especially liked, and if he lost not wearing shoes. So, we had a little puddle repeated carefully, looking, looking for the 10 minutes had not found. No way, no shoes have to continue to drift down, not to mention and my feet a pair of straw sandals do. After repeated comforted boatman (who for this loss than we seem uncomfortable), we hit the road.
The ship capsized and more or less hit me, and I did not originally so excited, but added my husband particularly fond of this shipwreck, although his legs were broken rocks rub a little, but also lost a shoe, but he still felt very much enjoyable. Boatmen of this shipwreck is not unusual, he said that always turned several times a year, and he has this year turned two boats are in this one place. The reason is relatively small light boat villain could easily be that the slope below the flyback tipped onto the front of the spray. But that pools in the 15 meters water depth or more (if I knew certainly scared to death passed), so people fall to the choke point at the most water, are generally not affected by any major damage.
Increasingly at noon, the sun has been completely direct the water, in the absence of a half-hour later, we arrived at a rest area. Here the water is wide and turn the water a degree bend where the big bend, and we rest on the shore of the open space, local fishermen from the water captured Banchi long baked fish sold. We do not eat, they stood in the water's edge, edge drying Clothesline, side looking at the water - it still misses too Nazhi shoes. Sparkling water and occasionally see a fish are not afraid of death sprang water, after taking a bubble, it disappeared in the river where the Qingliang. Our boatman suddenly cried, "fast boat, shoes, shoe floating down!" Down his hand, we can actually see the upper reaches of floating down a black block. Next to the fellow tourists have also followed the cheering, do not know how going to ask one another. We were not so many, and small black block over us. Then again, We Three suddenness of a thunderbolt onto a boat and onto the water. Downward drift of probably less than a mile, we catch up, and her husband pulled out a look, ha ha, it really was the bird his shoes. He hastened to put together only and another one tied to a rubber boat and boatmen are also very pleased to laugh.
Down the road are obviously more in stride, but also encountered two fell about four meters of water, because of our experience, not a pre-poured the water in the cabin, her husband again in the boxes that Crimping the bow and there was no panic no danger successfully passed. As we are too fast, had an inlet where to stop, such as behind person.
About 1:30 pm when the boats we have five members of his victory in the rubber boat to reach the end of drift - steamboat pier. The pier is a real deep-water depth of more than 70 meters, the water surprisingly calm. Which is said to have 100 kilograms of big fish and round the desktop so much Laogui a pity that we missed to see such.
I got on the steamer, her husband lying on the steamer towed behind the rubber boat basking in the sun. Along with gentle Miss Guizhou tour Mandarin, looking at the cross-strait "Little Three Gorges," a mile or ferocious, or rugged, or scenery or charming landscape of the karst Karst, but also passed about an hour, we reached the end of the drift - Red dao. Where self-serve lunch, I like just the same as E Lang (husband language) storm to eat dinner, and then changed into swimwear (inverted not to swim, I take this body wet clothes to dry), found a beach chair, called on - finally able to take a rest!
Recalling the drift, which lasted more than four hours, there are rapids there are rapids, there are shallow waves rippling comfort, there are still waters run deep to be overly busy Guizhou pure landscapes, like mountains and rivers have carefully with pure Guizhou Montagnards can be described as its Recalling also its music is also a long long time. Like to find exciting, you must go drift; want to experience the best drift, went to the Luo North River go!
