Since 2001 National Day in Ningbo After five Longtan canyoning in the next few years, every year some small outdoor adventure, such as the Jilong mountain caving, Tiantai Mountain cliff downhill, Tonghudilou canyoning, cliff of Wuyi small Huangshan downhill, even though this Those activities are more exciting, but has not found large-scale expedition. And I had a small outdoor adventure to those who have lost interest. Reading between the lines from the Internet User has proudly introduces exciting or hear other people talk, whom can not help but smile. The most interesting is to have a subway, I stood next to two seemingly engage in outdoor sports leader in there talking about whether it is the first of several in the five Longtan Lake to do canyoning, I saw one they would get off, by the way said a still "moist Lake Bar" (in fact is a piece of up to 20-meter waterfall, very suitable for canyoning), they stunned staring at me, and I did not pay attention to them underground straight to the car. Want to come they believe met a master. Fast forward two and a half later, I bent to organize a journey of exploration activities far, only bitterness "to the Shengeng drunk every night." But this was finally able to take a break from the busy. The Mix introduced a Shangri-La guide - small and, in his proposal, is prepared to walk through the Shangri-La Gorge, and then the root cases of snow-capped mountains to the barra. Bala Root cases of snow-capped mountains in Yunnan and Sichuan, at the junction, the peak elevation of 4808 meters, due to its special geographical environment, lush vegetation, a wide variety. Because without the development of eco-keeping well. In my departure, there are many of my friends asked me why I go to this place where birds do not lay eggs. Dapeng high aspirations, Qi Hong pelican Tomoyuki zai! To prepare for this event, but I have spent point of original capital. Some of the equipment up the class. Not bought to buy! Bought in for! Long, hard, pockets Board To Board spent a precise and appropriate light. No way, but also figuratively, the bank points, ready to go.
05/22 Qing Shanghai via Kunming to Lijiang, Zhongdian, chartered to got up early, will be equipped with all re-examine a bit, called the vehicles fork head straight to the airport. Into the airport, happened to come across Little Soldier and his beautiful companion LP. Although inexperienced soldier outdoor sports, but she can convince to go along with LP adults, but also is enough to awe. However, he assured his wife say no, so together. (Strange, I'm not a comrade, what are not satisfied with that.) Erhuameishui, we obtain a license before security checks, boarding. The aircraft took off at 09:40, arrived in Kunming at 12:30. Transfer, we found that the airport actually has stopped two MiG fighter jets. I really do not know the people of Taiwan will not be relieved after reading. By 13:30 in the afternoon Lijiang, take out finished luggage. I saw our guide and driver, small small and what is the gate waiting for us. We are each other with a show of a few, on the Gold Cup, first Old Town of Lijiang belly pad. Reported fairly small and the prices fair, the road will travel to do a simple arrangement. We casually looked for the store, drink and chat up. Guide small and is a "half-breed", and his father is a Naxi, Tibetan mother. And the surname is the second most common surname in the Naxi. Small and a look like a Tibetan, age, and I like the big brother has always called me boy, very polite. Little Ho is a pure Tibetan compatriots, face beard, I first saw him, thinking he was almost 40, and later realized he was five years younger than I, but the Mandarin is very standard. After eating Shunbian Mai resistance to hypoxia of medicine, the car went straight to Zhongdian. Along the way, then only the first passing through the Jinsha River Bay, took a few photos along the way enjoy the scenery. 18:30 to Zhongdian county town below. To find a home hotel CHECK IN, soldier wife stated that the departmental point of overhead, three squeeze one forget. Which has the nerve ah but I can not prevent people engage in family planning呀. Finally opened the two rooms to see if the room fairly clean, facilities are good, actually there is, "San Miguel treasure", I really regret not brought .... After dinner, went back to the room to sleep. Start a little hot, I'll cover blankets to sleep, sleep middle of the night was cold woke up. I shuffle, but still can not find the quilt. No way, I had to get another blanket over the bed, will until dawn.
05/23 cloudy Zhongdian to Kiu Tau Tsuen, walk 17 km to the relay station --- for the good of this water Zhuang 8:00 departure, but only 9:00 to go, small, and also went to farms to buy a la carte. Also for a soldier is not a pure Tibetan mastiff to a few close-up. Is sleeping on the train. 11:30 to reach the village bridge. We openly into the village, many villagers attracted curious eyes. Small and went to horse pack luggage, let us wait. After a moment, he said the village did not horses, only donkeys. Let us first Tibetan to eat at home. To a Tibetan family, small and presentations of the papers and do a presentation titled, "will be composed of barley flour and yak butter tea-like structure of the organism group and enter the human digestive system feasibility study." This is my first study of this subject, my sensory system tells me to study a little more difficult, taste system in the analysis and try to tell me that after the conclusion --- distasteful! We have also examined a "workshop production in the hands of breast secretions from the cow to extract produced by the fermentation of white semi-liquid sauce body entrance feasibility" and other reports, suddenly I do not eat who eat a kind of feeling. I swallowed a few mouthfuls of wholeness on the point of water to drink. Rest for a while, small and tell us that donkeys ready. In the village we saw three little donkeys, hair bald bald. Our luggage have a combined 200 kilos, I really afraid of them can not stand. The villagers said that it does not matter, they are not even pack big bags of cement are very moving. Villagers helped us pack the luggage of the donkey in the body, after the 13:00 trail from the village directly into the Shangri-La Grand Canyon.
Shangri-La Gorge length of 230 km, we are going in this section is from the export to go down into. Its entrance is Inagi Aden. There is a river valley called Gang Qu River, river rapids. When we had left into the small, and told us to go four and a half hours, we feel okay. After entering Canyon lies to the endless, rolling up and down the cliff ravines. Gurgling water, breeze blows all like to welcome our arrival. Day a little hot, and we party six people (including two grooms, are husband and wife) into the canyon. In the hillside, only to see a one-meter wide to narrow winding pass into the distance, simply no end in sight. As we all hurry out of the way, if not many. When the narrow trail when the wide, high and sometimes low and sometimes steep flat. Several paragraphs in the mountainside into the concave, and is obviously a man dug out. I can not help but think there is still such a Xiandu Zhejiang Road, the name Long till cliff, meaning that this road is out of the dragon hovering in the hillside. But did not so long nor so narrow. And the way a lot of jagged stones, fortunately I wear the high integration Dengshan Xue, very good protection of the ankle (later please buy XX brand Dengshan Xue, feet good taste if you like). Several paragraphs canyon scenery on the road is also good to shoot a few pictures. We also encountered a few logging Tibetan villagers, they are friendly and greet us with a very standard Mandarin asked us to "go to Bala?" We are also courtesy of the smile. We are not walking slowly to the first village is already 16:30 pm and take a full three and a half hours. To the village, will be mineral water bottles filled with mountain spring water, and Tuo Lexie son, let feet Chuichui Feng, after a short rest back on the road. We have gone a quarter of an hour, passed a stone bridge. Small and told us that the territory has been in Sichuan. This section is also similar, but there are a few small pieces of grass. We marched, about four kilometers, into a forest. Big break for half an hour, mainly donkeys and so our team. That the couple rushed donkeys, walking very slowly. Husband's physical not, has been his wife complain. Soldier but also sing folk songs, well, they're more lazy shit and urine. Here and in small and chat will be days, it made me a better understanding of small and. His home is hereditary toast, until the fifties. He married, with Allah is Zhaonv Xu Shanghai in terms of gossip, now living in Zhongdian. Usually good friends, started on foot from the 96-year adventure and experience. Wait until the groom had to catch up, we open the. Step on a lot of flora along the way, if the monk Tang learn from this path, the Monkey King just kill myself. We arrived in camp at 18:30 - the water village. Water Village is a quiet small village, a total of only five people. From afar, small bridges, small plain on end in a few Tibetan residential buildings, only a handful of smoke next to next to the golden wheat fields. It is "pastoral farm scene, the suspect is the Peach Blossom Spring," a painting good people! The other side of the river water village in order to Bara bridge connected. Over the river, but also in Yunnan constituency. Think of an afternoon walk through the 17 kilometers across provinces, although very tired, can not avoid some self-satisfied.
Into the village, we have casually looked for residential homes, the request to sleep. This house only to find mother and daughter duo, from housing construction and decoration point of view, home conditions are not very good, but people are very simple. Mother does not speak Chinese, only daughters would say 1:00. Daughter, seven spirits, called Ram, is the meaning of Fairy. Ram this year, side 29, a long quite beautiful. She has a brother studying in Zhongdian County, due to the poor at home, the mother afford to pay for the two studies. She was up to the fourth grade elementary school drop out. Ram is very shy and not very fluent in Chinese, in most cases, we asked, she replied. After listening to half a day to hear her say so two of the largest on the "Yes" and "not." Ask more, she could not answer, they Wuzui smile. (Really want to see her teeth, is not to use Colgate.) Mother and a good customer, took out some bread and butter tea entertain us. Because of the sensibilities that we managed to eat a few mouthfuls. We are chatting in and Ram, small, and will be buried in a pot of rice in the courtyard. All appetite for dinner fairly small, and stew up a pot of ribs soup, toast and future generations of cooking taste bad. By the time he was still cooking and I soldier couples first roof tent and then to the river washed a bath, biting cold water. Will a moment, they do wash away the fatigue. Dinner time is 8:00, and is not yet completely dark down. We are four坐在院子里, drinking bowl, large pieces of meat. To ten points as well as fond, sleeping on the roof.
05/24 cloudy, the water village to the Bala village, a difficult 8 km. Bala Bala from the village to the root cases of snow-capped mountains, easy armed with 6 km.
The morning will be equipped with all the Shoulong, After finishing backpack by the Ram pack mule in her home on health. Soldier wife and I have to eat breakfast. Last night, the leftovers reheat a fever, could not bear to Discard. After the Ram pack such a good luggage we set off. Today and yesterday about the road or walk along the Gang qu look inside. On foot for about half an hour, we arrive at a base camp outdoors not enabled. Rely on the river side of the room bright and clean, that was divided into several rooms. By rock the house is irregular stone puzzle together, but the walls are straight. The house is a very rules of rectangles, the roof is a human-like character, rather than the kind of flat-topped Tibetans at home and no windows. Just as I would like to ask is not the barn, the words of mouth on the throat just arrived back. Because I have seen both ends of the walls of the house to write a word --- "Male", "Female." NND, the valley come there are still so good and Kikunami Guanbao Ting Xuan. No, not waste through!. □ □ □ □ □ □ (where the author omitted the word N) □ □ finished, we then move forward. Ram Today I feel good, to catch a mule still humming a popular tune. However, small voice was like a mosquito, I would like to hear her sing anything approaching, there is no sound of. Waves passing through a small village called it, here is the relatively large blocks of flat land with 12 acres of riverside kinds of corn, just sprouting. We walked about two hours, reached a Crossings, on end block label: Go to Bala 3.5 km, to the Bi melting valley 98 kilometers. Bi-Rong canyon scenery is very charming, but few people is interested. If, according to 25 kilometers on foot every day, then have to embark on four days (the next bar).
Originally thought to Bala village, 3.5 kilometers is a piece of cake, at most one hour. Unfortunately, I think was wrong. Passed a small stream, they start to be climbing the gradient is approximately 50 degrees. Just started walking, "the" word road is not very difficult, but also to keep up with his wife Xiao-Bing. Small and asked how long such a way, he said little. I went to his old while! I remember high school physics has the law of entropy; "F = MV, the assumed power of inconvenience, the quality increase is slower." Now to fully understand the law's validity. I walked for half an hour, then slowly behind the soldier couples. Along the way, I am very much in the intervals of two to a half an hour and asked how much smaller and roads, the most heard phrase is "drawing near." Later, I simply do not ask. A soldier behind his wife began to 50 meters, has gradually become 100 meters, 200 meters. Later to become 500 meters. I acknowledge the correctness of the laws of physics, so every 20 minutes, climbing to rest a bit. Along the way solid food solid food eaten, water draft eat, food to eat, water, eat, food to eat, water, eat, eat well draft draft food eaten! ! ! And other soldier to his wife Bala village, using walkie-talkies, and contact me, I told he was still halfway up the mountain. However, small and quite enough buddies, has been accompanying me. So I went to Bala village, is a 13:30. Want to come back to this section is simply the purgatory. Well, can not be satisfied with the old ah, it did not go to the gym for two years, and loose meat, fat and long, and the stomach are also big, thick waist is also a. Think of waist circumference with the growth in volume and growth, sad ah! I remember when Goldenthal Hill, lively, there is no trace of weariness. Soldier couples in a Tibetan home, waiting for me, then I realized that this is the Ram's uncle home. They are also very good customer, come up with the Food and entertain us or the youngest sample. A short break, we discuss how to go into the mountains. Mrs. A said she did not want to go to soldiers, and soldiers Montgomery he did not go on the interface (Shanghai man is good, Zaicha one, I am also a Shanghai man). I hesitated a moment, think forget, but also climbing, tired, and did not go. Bing Sao advised me she had seen a lot of snow, this snow-capped mountains do not look worth mentioning. The first time I see snow-capped mountains, if they do not, the future will regret it. I measured again, biting his teeth, stamp of the foot-stomping, and ruthless of the hard-hearted - on! Talk down, soldier couples in situ rest, I, small, and there are Ramla the mules up the mountain 2. I have a pack, a pack luggage. 哈哈!
Out of the village, I started riding a mule, and became still higher than the mule Mix friends. Because the mountain has to go through a thin strip of sky spots, not very far away, so his wife, together with the soldier to see. This section of the road is uphill, but flat slope of the points. The feeling of riding on a mule really comfortable, you can also pat photos, excited, Jiao Jiao soldier left behind his wife quickly to keep up. "Do not talk back pain riding a mule!" (Oh, Sanin called Nong cutting ride呀?) Had more than an hour came to the thin strip of sky, this thin strip of sky everywhere. Stay for a while, took the picture, be this a visit. I wish them farewell. I continue to ride up. Riding ride and found a strange thing: Ram's cousin was also followed by the age of seven. Came out, I thought that this little girl is just to help pull mule, to a thin strip of sky will be back, and did not think she was out with the mountains. I asked myself how small and later the little girl back, small and hesitant to say "uh, Philipp Lahm is a girl, we have two big men, she was afraid of ... .., uh, so Zhao Geban to accompany her." (Oh, I see. I'm not a Yinzei, what is terrible. If you really want to capacity to make mischief, Hei hei ... ...) Think about the funny. After a thin strip of sky, and we pick up trash along a stream in the previous. Stream on both sides are towering trees, lush foliage, trunk straight. Gradually, the dense foliage reaching the sky has darkened. We have entered the dense forests, from time to time to see squirrels in the trees to flee to flee. Four weeks is very quiet, apart from the water gurgling sound, and even a bird sounds at all. I began to suspect that birds are really not here to lay eggs. Then, after more than an hour, suddenly see the light in front is a large piece of flat land, we reached the ranch to spend Kam Tong Hall. Although it was a pasture, can be still more trees than grass. There are three peaks in front of blocking our way, small, and said that Bala roots were snow-capped mountains of the main peak. Although they were snow-capped mountains, but in this season have been of a lot of snow. Dark color in many parts of the mountains exposed rock. Only part of the Peak was shrouded with snow. This is what I want to see. I am not very fond of all the white snow-capped mountains, but ignored that half of the snow-capped mountains of snow soft spot. We would like to climb, but can not find the road by now. We do not want the patron saint of snow-capped mountains, or up disturb him. And the lateness of the hour, the sky overcast, we are forced to spend the night at the ranch. By small and their firewood and feeding mule, I quickly climbed a high hill, the targeting of the ravages of peak a hammer my camera. As the mist-shrouded, snow-capped mountains as a Tibetan girl is not married, semi-concealed holds particularly pipa. I waited a long time, is still difficult to shoot the mountain panorama. To see snow-capped mountains picture, Xinchengzeling, perhaps I have not sincere. If I were their own climb up the past, will not see snow-capped mountains panorama it? Mood with awe, with a sigh, not help put away the camera, slowly walked down from the hill. Days began to darken, using flash in the pan to describe the snow-capped mountains is really no exaggeration. Down the hill, I help small and vegetables. Originally thought that this evening no vegetables, which thought of small and actually taken in the half-way point of the wild. Tastes a bit like water spinach, quite good. Today's dinner is not tasty, pork and a bit smelly, my stomach is not good, can not eat. I also put the sausage and beef jerky to bring out points can be considered to reduce the weight-bearing. Deficit small and Xiangdechulai, after dinner, each made a two antimicrobial agents. After dinner no matter slept early. And I slept in a small and large wooden structure, the Ram, and her sister slept in a small wooden structure. I can not sleep lying on the ground and saw the roof of the seam is very thick, can still see the stars. We are a fire, built a sleeping bag, feeling very hot. Available at the early morning, I can not help but have been frozen woke up. I have always been confident in my sleeping bag, because it can at least resist the cold temperature of five degrees Celsius. At a time when early morning temperatures up to no more than second time. I hasten to wearing a T-shirt, and then lay down to sleep (sorry, I always sleep naked).
05/25 fast downhill (This story is not told the soldier came back his wife, so as not to shock, if your daring big enough, please look again served sedatives, I do not assume any responsibility, if you do not want to see please skip ) to a seven-point, no longer sleep, and wash up. Stream is very cold, with biting to describe the more relevant. I added the points up and clothes, looking for pieces to sing place. Really not easy to find, not too dense grass is too high, that is, relatively open areas. Just finished singing the song, the bow there is a casually glance ------ have started rotting corpse! I was shocked. Was supine body shape, head south feet north, no obvious blood on the body. Face dry spells, head twisted to the east, two small, the eyes are opened to. Sharp mouth is open the. Death seemed to see something. The body was curved, dead body hair many, showing grayish brown, the legs began to decay below the skin off a good few, exposing dark red muscles. A few white maggot crawling around in the above ... ... .. (and then down into the rice to eat, said the person, and to explore the what, please PAGEDOWN).
Please turn down again!
Please turn down again!
Only dead birds, where the poor die, but many die here! The small and light a fire in the house, and I rushed back inside to warm your body. The world with yak hair like rain, I looked up looked, Bala root were completely snow-capped mountains to the fog shrouded up. Someone once asked a wise man to go climbing:
"Why do you go hiking?"
"Because it stand there!"
The Bala root of complaints about there, but I can not even see it do not have a chance, good or ill yesterday took a few pictures, or really big loss. Really, Bala I sincerely respect Yi Gu rises from the heart. On the fame, she is far less than the Yulong; on the scene, she also no match for Merrill. She is nothing but a number of snow-capped mountains of Shangri-La ordinary one. Yet it is this snow-capped mountains make me feel shocked, so I found her soul is not in the first round, so I found her dreaming. Maybe before she's waiting for me in silence, waiting for me in good faith. But when I arrived, but waits for no man. I really do not sincere?
Rain is still, I and the small and Jackets, while Philipp Lahm and her cousin did not Zheyu things. I took out from his backpack, a thin coat to the Ram, let her wear. Lahm put off several times, but I still fail to beat the final wearing. That does not point to a pretty little embarrassing, because I can not find her Zheyu clothes. Then a sudden inspiration, I put the unused garbage bags took one out and stabbed a hole at the bottom, covering the body in a small non-point, actually turned into a raincoat. Down, I glance at the snow-capped mountains Youxiang, really wanted to poke it with the root pole thick fog. We regret that down the line with four. I think that far down the mountains easy, 40 minutes later, we went to a thin strip of sky. From the thin strip of sky to the Bala village, has only spent a half an hour. Approaching Bala village, I used the walkie-talkie call soldier, and so on for a while before he reply, that he is not up it. In the hillside, far to see the soldier couple packed up, so help them took photographs. To the village also 11:30, rest for a while, we and the Tibetans drink and chat. Bala root listen to them to say so far no cases of more than 100 people, most of them are expeditions and tourism companies Pathfinder, really play a few here. We are the first coming in the Shanghai people. I was also the first one on the Bara root cases of snow-capped mountains of the Shanghai people. (Ah, quite proud of) over and over again they are talking about all kinds of anecdotes Bala. There is one thing I has strong feelings. That was in autumn of 2002, due to ecological protection of the good, hedgehog multiply rapidly, the results of hedgehogs to the villagers all kinds of food eaten. The local government grant per household is only one jin of grain, the results of the villagers themselves raised chickens, horses, cattle and sheep to eat all the slaughter. As being against the whole village as before. I can not help but think, "Tianxialiangcang" in Yinbing for grain case. After dinner we decided to chat exhausted rapidly downhill. Down at this time is also very easy, although the relatively steep slope, but as long as legs to support housing, and make giant strides forward, and pay attention to balance, to the foot after 45 minutes. This calculation, on the mountain flowers of five hours, but spent two and a half hours down the mountain. In the half-way we rest for a while, to continue on foot, embarked on the water village. From backtrack later, turned over a little steep, the water suddenly greet the eyes of the village, we came back, that kind of excitement from the inexplicable, however, l. Our original intent was to prepare a direct trial of strength directed at Yigu excitement out of canyons, but small, and that he has racked his brains to do the work of Ram, Ram refused in any case, plus the money do not. Because it has been going out too late, to the mouth of the canyon is a ten or eleven o'clock at night, roads are difficult to walk, mules also had had enough. We were dropped in the evening at home is still camping Ram. Ram saw a chicken at home we are all Hong Leyan, which goes several days without oil and water, and clamoring to be a small and slaughter. Small and fail to beat, and the Ram's mother to discuss, and choose the best-fat, and sold to us to kill to eat. Kwame too small and in front of the craft, to give him a chicken stew out of a pot of fragrant soup, the whole surface is a layer of yellow oil, unlike Shanghai, melon chicken stew out of a few short ride. In the avian flu first on the last day then eat a good soup, and not feel complacent. Dinner We call on the Ram and her mother eat, but also very happy chat. After dinner, we again ride on the roof tent and said get up a good five or six in the starting. Because the worst, not for a while I fell asleep.
05/26 out of the canyon the whole tone sounded at 5:00, I put ring tones pressed down, soldier next to his wife did not listen to static and dynamic. I should not care, and then sleep. By 7:00, I have to sing a song and had to get up. After washing and began to pack. Small and have a good breakfast and burned, and we hurried chops a few mouthfuls, starting at 8:20. As we plan to arrive the afternoon of Shangri-La County, in the morning they got up late, so the road had to pay close attention to time on the road. I soldier wife faster pace, and Ramla small and a bit slow mule. Walked half, small and let me look back, that we were actually able to see the hillside village of Bara, but very far. So, on the small and the when, if we say go to see, then I would not climb up killing to go too far. We went to the stone bridge here until 10:45 and we rest for a while in the bridge and other small and they are. Far to see one break off a small and Shui, and the original of his sprained right foot. He said that it does not matter, let us go first. Looked at him also supports, we have also put aside the heart. Eager to go home, while the next section of track go quite anxious, but if Quewu end. Around one another a mountain, in addition to paths, or paths. When around a hill, he saw the other side there are a few people fishing in the river, next to a parked sport utility vehicle. Finally, we walked out! Then I opened the phone, not a moment, cell phones will keep ringing. Have an influx of numerous short message. Bitter, smiled and went back to real life has. We sat village rest, small and call up small and come to meet us. We like "Party B" in that village chickens to eat the toes and necks only pass to the village looking Natiao the highway, looking forward to the car come in quickly. After a half an hour, drove slowly empties Gold Cup, and we all loaded onto the baggage car, and say good-bye, and Ram. Way forward, really, a little bit reluctant. I am deeply touched by their simplicity. Got on after the Dao Lang's "Zhu Jiuge" and left the village. Far end of the adventure on foot, but I think next time I will come to Bala roots were snow-capped mountains, but also Zaiqu drink butter tea, but also Zaiqu chewing tortillas, but also Zaiqu to explore her true colors.
