陈幼雪浙江义乌 -成都-雅安-泸定（牛背山）-康定-新都桥-道孚-炉霍-色达（佛学院）-雀儿山口-昌都-波密-林芝-拉萨-羊湖-纳木错-那曲-安多-可可西里-格尔木-敦煌-吐鲁番-乌鲁木齐-克拉玛依-阿勒泰-喀纳斯-布尔津-富蕴-乌鲁木齐-库尔勒-阿克苏-喀什-乌鲁木齐-天津-杭州-义乌有些人喜欢蓝天、白云；有些人喜欢山脉、湖泊；有些人喜欢草原、名族风情；有些人追求终极意义。这里我仅从自己的体验角度来说：1、搭免费车六十多辆，旅途中遇到很多冷暖、炎凉、感动，碰到各种职业的司机，大部分都很热心的介绍当地的各种情况。2、色达佛学院听课一周，偶遇几位大师，谈的东西究竟是彻彻底底，原来人还可以这样活。3、新疆异域风情，吃不完的美食，说不完的故事。虽说政治气氛太浓，也只有到过新疆才会对政权、名族、军队、统一、矛盾这个问认识更加客观。图片拍的不是很多，全是手机拍的，所以大家将就看一下。文中不涉及政治宗教内容，还请版主以及网监部分放心，如有误会，纯属个人价值观问，请予指正。谢谢！ OK，东西收拾好了，准备出发！ OK好吧，我承认一开始就没有写游记的打算，成都这一段图片一张没有拍。 众所周知，成都是一个很放松的城市，人人都喜欢耍，喝茶、火锅、麻将生活必不可少，不会像现在的城市、浮躁扭曲的价值观为本位现象，我觉得成都恰恰与国际接轨，之所以四川、重庆朋友能以这样的态度来面对生活，恰恰是内心的宽容和见解高人一筹！赞一个！！！！！第二天就杀到泸定牛背山脚下，在军长家中住了一晚，次日徒步上山。这几位是在成都发往泸定的班车上结伴的！是西南名族大学摄影协会的童鞋！ 这是在军长家吃面的图片，典型的四川特制红油拌面，口水直流！！！ 早上8点爬到下午三点，上班族的我体能真心差，最后只好搭了一辆重庆夫妇的牧马人抵达山顶，由于我五点多就到了，大部队六点多到，山上已经大雾，什么都看不见，一个人扎营山顶过了一晚。OK--个名字吧 义乌如风户外这就是让我搭车的好心夫妇（冒哥、冒嫂）9月来牛背山并不是最好的时候，我们在山上等候了48个小时，一直在下小雨，欲哭无泪！ 好不容易天晴了10分钟，乌云又来了。牛背山这种碎石铺成的路可谓是惊险连连，越野车在这里才能算真的物尽其用！下山搭了一辆丰田霸道去了康定，司机于另外二人均是一同前往北京买车，现在返回新疆。都是做生意的人，边走边玩。我给他们做了一条川藏南线和青藏线的沿途简易攻略。到了康定算是已经进入藏区了，本地人大部分是藏族的。康定县城山上随处可见这样的壁画这个新鲜带壳的核桃第一次见，原来是绿色的，剥了皮就好了。康定的夜景不错哦，特别是湍急的河流在县城主干道上，气势不一般哦，川藏线进藏康定建议停留一下哦。康定情歌大名鼎鼎了！这个电影院上的图案也挺有意思！！！！好吧，出门在外要会照顾自己，买了1.5斤排骨一餐吃完，把肉当饭吃确实佩服自己。 第二天一早在康定坐了一个私家车去新都桥，40元，这的私家车为了拼客，足足让我等了一个多小时才开。新都桥小镇公路旁的房子大多是新盖的，看起来还是比较文艺吧。今晚就在这住一晚，20元一晚，还是比较划算吧，老板娘看我在路上走的，就把我带到她家了。他家没挂牌，看内部装饰，我想应该是对外经营的旅馆！男人就要轰轰烈烈第二天一早在镇里坐了一辆私家车去塔公，20元，车上一个喇嘛一直子念经，非常虔诚。藏族朋友的车子和他们房间一样，气味还是挺大的。塔公镇在修路，一直堵车，最后只好自己下车走到了塔公寺。塔公寺的白塔群相当的壮观，我以为白塔里面是装经文，也有可能是藏族朋友往生，骨灰埋葬在里面吧，还请广大朋友解答。 在塔公寺转经筒偶遇一慈祥老奶奶，这张脸让我想到了索达吉堪布写的那本畅销书《苦才是人生》。我忍不住的拍了一张，但是她问我要钱了。我很诧异，是什么让这位白发苍苍的老人，一辈子念经，到了人生最后的阶段，还能放下尊严！藏文经幡，藏族基本上是信仰佛教，经幡随处可见，常转法轮！简易佛塔，几块石头做一个玛尼堆，堆一个塔，既是信仰。南方很多寺院金碧辉煌，却无生气！ 老奶奶在户外晒太阳唠嗑还请我吃东西，看看他们吃的是什么吧！大饼大肉，还有野果子哦！这是牦牛肉干，听藏民朋友讲：买牦牛肉要到市场买新鲜牦牛肉，然后自己腌制起来，就可长期保存。市场上的牦牛肉干有可能是其他牛肉做的，牦牛肉干好的一百多一斤。看完了塔公寺准备搭车离开，等了很久也没有车去炉霍方向，走着走着，遇到四个年轻人，两男两女，他们也是搭车的，我就和他们一道搭车。没想到那个美女拦了一辆大挂车，车居然停了，而且我们五个可以全部坐上去。我瞅瞅车上，至少能坐七八个小伙伴吧，呵呵 我们当天就到炉霍县了。司机放着音乐，我们哼着小调，从来没有这样的释怀。和比自己年轻的朋友一起玩，会更有激情。顺利抵达炉霍县，当天还去山上的寺院转了一圈，这里虽没有喇荣佛学院那么震撼，但也有他的特色。炉霍的寺院 第二天我们5人又一同搭车去了色达，我一个人先搭了一辆哈佛越野车，没想到车上还有2人搭车，就是这2个屌丝，哈哈！从尼泊尔搭车过来，反走川藏北线，从丁青过来。这两人一晚上通宵徒步，半夜三点搭到一辆大货车到炉霍。口袋里剩下80元钱，一天没有吃东西，一个月没有洗澡换衣服。绝对的屌丝，我深感佩服！！！这两人刚结婚，这趟就是度蜜月之旅哈哈哈哈！！！！路上的牦牛哥也不是好惹得，就是不让路哈哈哈这牛头看起来有点像头骨的感觉抵达色达县城后，在县城乘坐面包车去佛学院，5元一个人，或者包车20一辆。车子只能到佛学院停车场，也就是半山腰。当时我就被眼前的一幕给震撼到了 这种小木屋全部是学生自己花钱建的，造价几千元。听说现在女众区大概购买一个小木屋价格在3-5万。男众区会便宜点，因为男的出家相对女的少一点。佛学院是必须出家后才能进入学习的，通常会有一段时间考察期，老师认为可以就没多大问，不需要考试，也不需要推荐走后面，这里面人才济济，听说很多国外一流大学的高材生也在此地出家学习，国内的大学生就更多了。并且部分课程多语种教学！这样密密麻麻的在山腰上的建筑真是震撼人心，有人说这样的建筑像贫民区，我很明确的告诉他，这就是一个贫民区！ 爬到山顶扎帐篷，悠闲的度过了一日。期间有个觉母（女众出家者）从屋子的窗户丢出几包干粮给我吃，非常感谢，误闯女众区，抱歉！这张图片是同行朋友用小日本相机慢曝出来的图！我翻拍。([]

刘萱俐洛阳，一座有着5000多年文明史、4000年的建城史和1500多年的建都史的古城，是华夏文明的发源地和中华民族的发祥地之一。而洛阳又因牡丹闻名于世，被世人誉为“千年帝都，牡丹花城”。在牡丹花盛开的日子里，我独行洛阳，去造访这座千年都城并欣赏我国著名的国花。4月10日晚，乘坐K419次列车，经过6个半小时的车程，与次日清晨558，我到达了洛阳。按照事先做好的功课，车到洛阳站后，出站后直接去公交站台乘坐801公交，上车直达龙门石窟。 龙门石窟位于洛阳市南郊龙门峡谷东西两崖的峭壁间。因为这里东、西两山对峙，伊水从中流过，看上去宛若门厥，所以又被称为“伊厥”，唐代以后，多称其为“龙门”。 这里地处交通要冲，山清水秀，气候宜人，是文人墨客的观游胜地。又因为龙门石窟所在的岩体石质优良，宜于雕刻，所以古人选择此处开凿石窟。 龙门石窟是中国石刻艺术宝库之一，国家AAAAA级景区。2000年被联合国科教文组织列为世界文化遗产。 两山之间的伊水让洛阳这座古城尽显了灵秀之气。 龙门石窟位是中国石刻艺术宝库之一，世界文化遗产、是中国四大石窟之一。龙门石窟与甘肃敦煌莫高窟、山西大同云冈石窟并称为“中国三大石刻艺术宝库”。 石窟始凿于北魏孝文帝时（公元471～477年），历经400余年才建成，迄今已有1500年的历史，龙门石窟南北长约1公里，现存石窟1300多个，窟龛2345个，记和碑刻3600余品，佛塔50余座，佛像97000余尊。 最大的佛像高达17.14米，最小的仅有2厘米。其中以宾阳中洞、奉先寺和古阳洞最具有代表性。 宾阳中洞是北魏时期（公元386～512年）的代表性作品。这个洞窟前后用了24年才建成，是开凿时间最长的一个洞窟。洞内有11尊大佛像。主像释迦牟尼像，面部清秀，神情自然，堪称北魏中期石雕艺术的杰作。主像座前刻有两只姿态雄健的石狮。左右侍立二弟子，二菩萨，菩萨像含笑凝眸，温柔敦厚。洞中还雕刻着众菩萨，弟子听法的浮雕像，栩栩如生。窟顶飞天仙子的刻画也十分传神。 宾阳中洞是北魏时期代表性的洞窟。“宾阳”意为迎接出生的太阳。宾阳三洞开凿于北魏时期，是北魏的宣武帝为他父亲孝文帝做功德而建。它开工于公元500年，历时24年，用工达80万2366个，后因为发生宫廷政变以及主持人刘腾病故等原因，计划中的三所洞窟（宾阳中洞、南洞、北洞）仅完成了一所即宾阳中洞，南洞和北洞都是到初唐才完成了主要造像。宾阳中洞内为马蹄形平面，穹窿顶，中央雕刻重瓣大莲花构成的莲花宝盖，莲花周围是八个伎乐天和两个供养天人。它们衣带飘扬，迎风翱翔在莲花宝盖周围，姿态优美动人。洞内为三世佛材，即过去、现在、未来三世佛。主佛为释迦牟尼。他是佛教的创始人，原名叫乔达摩·悉达多，原是古印度净饭王的儿子。他和中国的孔子生活在同一时代，比孔子要年长12岁。他在29岁时出家修行，经过六年，悟道成佛，创立了佛教。由于北魏时期崇尚以瘦为美，所以主佛释迦牟尼面颊清瘦，脖颈细长，体态修长。衣纹密集，雕刻手法采用的是北魏的平直刀法。由于北魏孝文帝迁都洛阳后实行了一系列的汉化政策，所以洞中主佛的服饰一改云冈石窟佛像那种偏袒右肩式袈裟，而身着宽袍大袖袈裟。释迦牟尼所有侍立二弟子、二菩萨。二菩萨含睇若笑，文雅敦厚。左右壁还各有造像一铺，都是一佛、二菩萨，着褒衣博带袈裟，立于覆莲座上。洞中前壁南北两侧，自上而下有四层精美的浮雕。第一层是以《维摩诘经》故事为材的浮雕，叫做“维摩变”。第二层是两则佛本生故事。第三层为著名的帝后礼佛图。第四层为“十神王”浮雕像。特别是位于第三层的帝后礼佛图，它们反映了宫廷的佛事活动，刻划出了佛教徒虔诚、严肃、宁静的心境，造型准确，制作精美，代表了当时生活风俗画的高度发展水平，具有重要的艺术价值和历史价值。非常可惜的是，在上个世纪的三、四十年代被盗往国外了，现在分别陈列在美国纽约大都会博物馆和美国堪萨斯州纳尔逊艺术博物馆。 “剪刀手”卖萌佛祖在宾阳中洞石窟，有一尊历经千年风霜的佛像，手势神似“剪刀手”。剪刀手佛像是在向游人卖萌，在提醒大家保护文物，还是想说点什么？有网友评论：四百年前的艺术大师们好有远见，知道在四百年后剪刀手肯定会风靡全球。 《伊阙佛龛之碑》亦称"褚遂良碑"。篆额《伊阙佛龛之碑》。贞观十五年(公元641年)刻于河南省洛阳龙门石窟壁宾阳洞内。 这里因伊水东西两岸之香山和龙门山对峙如天然门阙，故古称“伊阙”，隋唐以后，习称龙门。《伊阙佛龛之碑》通高约5.00米、宽1.90米。由中书侍郎岑文本撰文，谏议大夫褚遂良书。字共三十二行，满行五十一字。计一千六百余字。碑文主要记述唐太宗第四子魏王李泰为其母文德皇后长孙氏死后做功德而开凿，太宗末年李泰与太子李承乾争夺太子位，李泰借为母亲开窟造像做功德，实有获得太宗好感，为自已捞取政治资本的目的。这通碑原应为北魏所雕的宾阳中洞的造窟碑，到了唐代李泰为节省费用，竟就势磨去原有碑文，又重新雕刻成唐碑的。 关于该碑的记载，始见于宋嘉祐六年(公元1061年)欧阳修之《集古录》及赵明诚之《金石录》。《伊阙佛龛之碑》是早期传世褚书的代表作。为目前国内所见褚遂良楷书之最大者，字体清秀端庄，宽博古质,是准的初唐楷书。此碑虽说是碑，实际上却是摩崖刻石。两者功用相同，都是为歌功颂的。但在创作时条件不同，一个是光平如镜，而另一个则是凹凸不平，书写的环境也不会那么优游自在。于是，摩崖书法的特征也就不言而喻。因无法近观与精雕细琢，于是便在气势上极力铺张，字形比碑志大得多，舒卷自如，开张跌宕。正是在这一点上，像汉代的《石门颂》、《郙阁颂》、《西峡颂》，它们气度之开张，韵致之飞扬，自然拙朴，即使是如《礼器碑》、《乙瑛碑》、《史晨碑》等真正的碑志精品也无法比拟，褚遂良的《伊阙佛龛碑》，正是这样一种典型的摩崖书风。传世墨拓以明代何良俊清森阁旧藏明初拓本为最佳，拓工精致、字口如新；比《金石萃编》所载犹多五十余字，曾经清代毕泷、沈志达、费念慈等递藏，现藏北京图书馆。有影印本行世。 魏窟――公元495年魏宗室丘慧成开始在龙门山开凿古阳洞，500--523年魏宣武帝、魏孝明帝连续开凿宾阳洞的北中南三个大石窟，石阳洞和宾阳洞的修建共费人工80万以上，还开凿了药方洞和东魏时开凿的莲花洞等石窟。北朝石窟都在龙门山，古阳洞自慧成至东魏末50多年的营造，表现出列多的中国艺术形式，大佛姿态也由云岗石窟的雄健可畏转变为龙门石窟的温和可亲。以宾阳中洞主佛为代表的佛像，人物面部含着微笑，龙门石窟比云岗石窟表现出更多的中国艺术佛像。龙门石窟还保留有大量的宗教、美术、书法、音乐、服饰、医药、建筑和中外交通等方面的实物史料。因此，它又是一座大型的石刻艺术博物馆。 只可惜龙门石窟遭受的破坏要比云冈石窟大得多，绝大多数佛像都不存在或者是残缺不全的了。 ([]

林柏康〖前言〗“快起床，今天还要开4个小时！”从美西回来几周了，蟋蟀头还时不时假装我们仍在美西自驾途中。对美国的眷念和喜欢似乎超乎我俩的想象。美国，原本不是我俩向往中的旅行地，它太年轻太现代了，历史厚重、传统文化浓郁的国度才是我们的爱。所以，我俩去尼泊尔印度，去中东的约旦以色列，去泰国柬埔寨，去非洲的肯尼亚，甚至去朝鲜，但美国却迟迟没有排进我们的时间表。偶然的机会，看到一张波浪谷的照片，神奇的地貌激发出我的无限好奇。于是，我想是时候去美国看看了。27天，8000公里，我们在美国西部自驾了一个环线，却发现，那不过是美国广袤西部的一小片地域而已。美国人比想象中更亲切随和，他们不像印度人那样用“where are you from?”来刻意与我们套近乎，但“Have a nice day”却几乎是我们每天都能听到的口头禅。榜自由的美国人，其实却非常遵守规则，在有STOP志的路口，他们一定会停车三秒，即使这个STOP志是在人烟稀少的国家公园，也不会动摇他们对规则的遵守。两个人，一辆Jeep，驰骋在美国西部，这段自由自在，无拘无束的日子，我知道即使在很久以后都会是一段难以忘却的回忆。同事邓姐说，等老了，你可以把这段经历写成游记。我诧异，为何要到年老时才写游记？这不是现在就可以做的吗？当然，她并不知道我已经在论坛上写过无数游记，从我玩户外开始，每一次徒步每一次旅行，我都用文字在论坛上留下足迹。只是，微信的盛行，碎片文化的泛滥，当然，还有我的懒心，我已有一年半没写过游记了。而这一次，我决定不再给自己任何借口。直达电梯D1（9月20日）上海—广州—旧金山1、一张申报单换回300美元罚款2、租车——首度体验美国人的耐心3、飞过大洋来看你D2（9月21日）旧金山—蒙特雷—卡梅尔—大苏尔1、第一次自助加油，101刀？2、半月弯——差点错过的风景3、鸽点灯塔Pigeon Point Light —意义大于景致4、鲜花盛开蒙特雷 5、日落17-Mile Drive6、恋恋不舍卡梅尔Carmel7、意外留宿大苏尔D3（9月22日）大苏尔—圣西蒙—Morro Rock—San Luis Obispo—Solvang—圣巴巴拉—洛杉矶1、失而复得的大苏尔Big Sur 2、两个逗比的Morro Rock3、善意满满San Luis Obispo4、在索尔万Solvang的童话世界里迷失一回又何妨？5、圣巴巴拉的晚餐D4（9月23日）洛杉矶——拉斯维加斯1、到此一游好莱坞2、气质超然罗迪欧3、拉斯维加斯惊艳一刻D5（9月24日）拉斯维加斯——大峡谷国家公园Grand Canyon National Park1、威廉姆斯与66号公路的不了情2、当墨西哥菜遇到浓浓善意D6（9月25日）大峡谷国家公园——Kanab1、在Yavapai Point看日出2、徒步光明天使步道3、巴士红线蜻蜓点水4、日落Grandview PointD7（9月26日）Kanab—Page—Kanab1、波浪谷抽，与幸运擦肩而过2、不期而遇格伦峡谷大坝3、梦幻羚羊谷4、马蹄湾，又遇老友5、夕阳无限好D8（9月27日）Kanab—锡安国家公园—Kanab1、锡安国家公园初印象D9（9月28日）Kanab—布莱斯峡谷国家公园1、红的岩，云的舞2、Sunset Point，岩柱的天然剧场3、徒步纳瓦霍环路4、一不小心，从Sunset走到Sunrise5、徒步皇后花园步道D10（9月29日）布莱斯峡谷国家公园—圆顶礁国家公园—盐湖城1、日出Surise Point2、绚烂如画的12号景观公路3、圆顶礁，没有大门不需收费的国家公园4、超速遇警察D11（9月30日）盐湖城—大蒂顿国家公园1、怀俄明的西部田园诗2、杰克逊的西部牛仔风D12（10月1日）大蒂顿国家公园—黄石国家公园1、大蒂顿东线，明信片般的风景线2、湖光山色大蒂顿D13（10月2日）黄石国家公园1、老忠实泉，忠实大于景致2、徒步牵牛花池环线3、雨意渐浓Black Sand BASIns（黑沙盆地）4、烟雨朦胧Biscuit Basin（饼干盆地）D14（10月3日）黄石国家公园1、寻找大棱镜2、不用下车的火洞湖环线（Firehole Lake Drive）3、彩锅喷泉原来是泥浆锅4、单行道的火洞峡谷环线（Firehole Canyon Drive）5、一不小心到了Mammoth（猛犸热泉）D15（10月4日）黄石国家公园—盐湖城1、再寻大棱镜，意外遇朋友2、迷失在诺里斯间歇泉盆地3、诗情画意MammothD16（10月5日）盐湖城—Moab1、盐湖城买胶卷2、5次停车助人，“我们来自中国！”D17（10月6日）拱门国家公园1、自驾，自助，自由2、艺术家的Three Gossips3、在南北窗拱门飞翔4、DeliCATe Arch，路途比终点更奇幻5、四川榕，不吃也罢D18（10月7日）Moab—拱门国家公园—峡谷地国家公园—Blanding1、半途而废的恶魔花园徒步道2、初见天空之岛3、Upheaval Dome，流星撞地球4、地球上的火星地貌D19（10月8日）Blanding—纪念碑谷—Kanab1、像阿甘一样奔跑2、在纪念碑谷拍一组大片D20（10月9日）Kanab1、波浪谷再次抽2、珊瑚粉沙丘州立公园，没有沙滩摩托就别去了3、日落锡安4、我想开餐厅D21（10月10日）Kanab—锡安国家公园—Kanab1、Angels Landing，勇敢者之路D22（10月11日）Kanab—Las Vegasl1、走，打枪去2、买，买，买D23（10月12日）Las Vgas—死亡谷—优胜美地国家公园1、迷茫死亡谷2、误闯入的风景D24（10月13日）优胜美地1、在Glacier Point，与半圆丘两两相望2、Tunnel View，无处不在的半圆丘3、新娘纱瀑布，你的面纱呢？4、寻找酋长岩，却拾一片秋D25（10月14日）优胜美地—旧金山1、抵达旧金山，归途倒计时D26（10月15日）旧金山1、洗车费100刀？2、招摇过市叮叮车3、花园锦簇，九曲花街4、渔人码头，到此一游5、旧金山，夜的魅结束语 预告片1— 纪念碑谷在纪念碑谷拍一组大片。空旷、荒凉，却有一种惊心动魄的美。 预告片2——拱门国家公园都说Delicate Arce的落日极美，但好天气也需要好运气。没有好运气时，至少我还可以有好心情。 预告片3——优胜美地国家公园在斑斓的秋色面前，很多时候，我只是配角。 预告片4——马蹄湾无数次在别人的照片里看到马蹄湾，但再美的风景，也只是别人镜头里的风景，只有当你亲临此境，此时此地，于是，这风景方才成为你的风景。预告片5——丹麦小镇Solvang如果你去丹麦小镇Solvang，记得一定带上两样东西：漂亮裙子和摄影师。 D1（9月20日）上海——广州——旧金山一张申报单换回300美元罚款3月，在天巡网搜9月下旬上海往返旧金山的机票，最便宜的机票竟然是携程上放出的南航，往返机票仅4967元，5000元不到。好处显而易见，便宜，但缺点是并非直飞，要到广州转机。去时在广州住上一夜，回程时广州中转2小时。但这缺点与便宜的票价相比，几乎可以忽略不见。广州，十年没去了，去时住一晚，喝个早茶再登机，怎么想都挺美。所以，还没办好美国证，我们已把去美国的往返机票买好了。现在办美并不难，自己填好160表，预约好面，带着轻松心情去面，有问必答，过关概率极高。而且，一就是十年。最重要的是，有了美，再办其他国家的证，会容易很多。要说办美的经验，我唯一的建议便是，老实。老实填写表格，老实回答问。只要你不是格外特殊，去美国的目的让面官生疑，一般都易通过。在飞机上时，空姐便发放了《美国海关申报单》。以往，对于其他国家的申报单我一律填写NO，但这次，申报单上关于是否携带了肉类一项，让我有点犹豫。因为小美丽在旧金山，受朋友所托，带给她两袋香肠。行前小美丽告诉我说，只要香肠是真空包装就没问。但看到申报单上这一项，我还是踌躇了半晌，要不要老实申报呢？与蟋蟀头商量了一下，我还是决定申报。后来，我非常庆幸自己这一决定。出海关时，递上护照和申报单，移民局官员问我，“你申报的肉类是什么？”“sausage。”我看着这个长着一张华裔面孔的移民局官员，竟想脱口而出“香肠。” “香肠？好吧，后面海关检查行李时，香肠有可能会被没收，也可能不被没收，但你填写了申报单，至少不会被罚款。” 他说道。再接着问了一下我们的旅行目的地、天数，以及我们在国内都是做什么工作，就让我们分别按指纹，盖章通过了。取行李后，我们推着行李车跟随人流往前走，却不料被不远处的两位海关人员叫住，招手要我们过去检查行李。为什么是我们？看看我们前后也没有其他人被叫过去，心里诧异。检查就检查，反正我们的行李中也没什么违禁物品。我倒是心安理得，早已忘了箱中的两袋香肠。直到海关人员开箱检查，拎出两袋香肠，告诉我说，“这个，没收，罚款300美元。”话音毕，2袋香肠便被扔进了旁边的垃圾桶。300美元？我的头一下大了。想起之前移民官的话，赶紧从包里掏出申报单递过去说道：“我有申报！”海关人员把申报单看了看，问道：“你申报的就是这个香肠？”我赶紧点头。“好吧，不用罚款了，但是下次再也不要带香肠了。” 听她这样一说，我才大吁一口气。而旁边被检查行李的同胞中，月饼也被扔进了垃圾桶。后来与小美丽讨论此事，她说我不应该填写申报表，就是因为填写了申报表，海关才会查验我的行李。可是申报表在我的包里，海关人员检查我的行李前，并不知道我有申报。“你难道取完行李没有上交申报单？不是有人站在那里收申报单吗？”小美丽问。小美丽接着说，取完行李后，应该有人在那里收申报单，填了申报单的走一列，会一个个被检查行李；没填申报单的走另一列，不会被检查行李。但实际上，我们真没看见有人在收申报单，我们也只是跟随人流往前走而已。下一次，我可能就不填申报单了。但这一次，我很庆幸，填写了申报单。后来的美国之行，愈发让我们感受到，美国人对规则的遵守。所以，在美国旅行，还是老实遵守他们的规定比较好。 租车——首度体验美国人的耐心推着行李走出机场。在我想像中，以为租车柜台就在到达大厅里一字排开，没想到，所谓的到达大厅并不大，也没有看到想像中的租车柜台，但示还算清楚，便随着“Car Rental”的示一路走过去，拐了几道弯，进电梯，上楼，出电梯后竟来到一个类似于地铁站台的地方，左右两边分别是蓝线Blue Line和红线Red Line的train。我有点懵了，依稀记得取车单上似乎有提过红线和蓝线，于是，赶紧翻出取车单，这段用红色明的重要文字，我居然这时才仔细阅读：MEETING POINT Car Rental Facility can be accessed by Air Trans train. The RED line train runs between Terminals. The BLUE line train goes from the terminals to the Consolidated Car Rental Facility. Airport signs will direct you to the Train boarding areas.读完后方知，原来红线车是在不同的候机楼之间运行，而蓝线车则是从候机楼到租车区。所以，我们应该坐蓝线车，而终点站就是租车区。很快，蓝线车来了，人流一涌而入，很快就把车厢塞满了。坐蓝线的人，应该都是去租车区取车的吧。我只是想，为何从没人在攻略里提及旧金山机场取车要坐蓝线车呢？旧金山机场的示非常清楚，顺着示走，绝不会迷路。当然，我们顺着这股人流走，也不会迷路。进电梯，下楼，出电梯，终于来到我想像中租车柜台一字排开的租车区，但，租车区比我想像中大很多，完全不是国内机场租车区可比，而且每个租车公司都占了一大片区域，且每个租车公司的柜台前都排满了人。找到我们的租车公司FOX后，买杯咖啡，排队取车。因为小美丽在微信中告诉我，“你们就慢慢排队吧，一般至少排队一小时才能取到车”。排队一小时？看着前面排队的几十个人，再看看五六个柜台前同时办公的工作人员，我很怀疑真的要一小时。但实际结果是，真的排了一个多小时才轮到我们。只不过，这一小时的排队时间里，所有人都安安静静，不急不躁。在后面的27天里，我们陆陆续续在许多细节方面感受到美国人的耐心。比如，开车在路上时，他们不会急于超车，更不会随便插队，你如果开得慢，他就在后面慢慢跟着，不急不缓；比如，我在拍照，挡了他们的路，他们就在后面耐心等着，等我拍完再走，不急不催。后来，我和蟋蟀头讨论，美国人这种耐心，与其说是耐心，但其实是素质。租车柜台前接待我们的又是一位华裔面孔的工作人员，只不过，他一句中文也不会，美语顺溜得如果不看他的脸，肯定会把他当成纯粹的美国人。递过去蟋蟀头的护照和驾驶证，以及取车单，工作人员就开始为我们办理取车手续。至于我们出发前蟋蟀头特地去办理的驾驶证公证件，从头到尾没有用过。其实如果你是在加州租车，是不需要出示驾驶证公证件的，因为加州交规中有明确，认可中国驾照。美国有50个州，每个州都有不同法规，所以租车前要搞清楚这个州是否接受中国驾照。基本上，美国西部的州都认可中国驾照，而东部的州不大认可，需要办理驾驶证公证件。当然，驾照公证件的有效期与驾照一致，所以打算今后还想在国外自驾的，花200元办个公证件也无不可。所以，蟋蟀头说他要去办驾照公证件时，我也不拦他，但没想到的是，办这个驾驶证公证件时，蟋蟀头居然被国内公证处的办证人员给坑了200元。工作人员问他，要几个翻译件？蟋蟀头说，按规矩来吧，应该办几个就几个。然后，办证人员就给他办了2个，一共花了400元。问在于，这两个证件一模一样，没有任何区别，哪有必要弄两个完全一样的翻译件呢？唉，说到国内这些公务人员，除了叹气，可能就是骂人了。租车很顺利，原本预定的车型是Jeep的自由光，工作人员帮我们做了免费升级，升级为Jeep一款更好的SUV，至于是哪个型号，我忘了。当时工作人员说可以帮我升级车型时，我只关注一点，同样价格？在得到他的明确答复后，我就眉开眼笑了。当时有两种车型任我们选择，我是车盲，蟋蟀头对那两款车型也不熟悉，便请工作人员帮忙，他指着一款车型说，“这个更好，很多人都选它。”我俩同意了他的建议。他虽然长着一张华裔的脸孔，我们却相信他，不会像国内那些坑人的官僚。租车推荐网站：https//www.economycarrentals.com/这是一个租车平台，非常好用，重要的是，价格比许多网站便宜。租车订单提交，收到确认单后，才会知道是哪家租车公司提供租车服务。预定时需支付预付款，提车前可以免费取消，所以预定车辆后，如果后面看到租金有降，可以取消订单，重新下单，整个过程方便快捷，且不会有任何多余费用。所以，我原本租的JEEP是Alomo公司提供，两个月后，发现同样车型，租金却便宜了1000多人民币，所以赶紧取消订单，重新下单，然后发现提车的这家公司变成了FOX。就名气而言，Alomo比Fox要知名很多，Fox只是一家小公司，但我们体验下来，无论服务，还是车的质量，都感觉不错。我们的租车费用，9月20日-10月16日，27天，5257元人民币。关于油，选的是满油还车return with full 。 飞过大洋来看你办完租车手续后，上楼提车。不一会儿功夫，我们便驾着一辆八成新的JEEP驶出租车区，正式开始我们的美国自驾行。我们在国内已预先在某宝买了TomTom的导航仪以及美国AT&T的手机卡，选的流量套餐是：高速流量4GB（4G/3G网速）+无限流量（2G网速）。美国虽比中国发达，但手机网络的覆盖率和速度则不敢恭维。AT&T是美国网络覆盖率最广信号最好的运营商，但即使是AT&T，在很多区域仍然没有信号，比如一号公路的部分路段、大峡谷国家公园、Page。。。后来在美西路上驾驶时，时不时没有网络信号，我们也渐渐习以为常。所以，想在美国自驾，只依赖手机Google地图是不行的，必须配备一个GPS，没有网络时依然可以导航。所以，我买的这个手机卡，即使我们在美国呆了整整27天，同时开热点给蟋蟀头使用，但因为美西的部分地区无信号，所以回国时，手机卡仍有很多流量。刚上车的心情，愉悦中带着兴奋，但开出取车区没多久，匝道太多，不熟悉，来不及换道，蟋蟀头便开错道了，绕了好大一圈，才终于驶上正道。出道不顺，却丝毫没影响我们心情。“刚开始嘛，等我熟悉一下就好，” 蟋蟀头的心态永远比我要好，不像我，容易着急。我预先订好的酒店位于旧金山市中心的联合广场附近，距离旧金山机场车程20分钟左右。一路高速公路，倒是方便快捷，只是进入市区后，道路开始复杂起来，特别是酒店附近，单行道很多，车道开错，又得重来，所以，我们竟在酒店外绕了两三圈，才终于在酒店对面的停车场停好车。旧金山市区的车道虽然复杂，却极为有趣，特别是我们酒店所处区域，坡度很大，道路极陡，不便驾驶，却很刺激。酒店不大，小巧干净，胜在位置极佳。前台为我们办理check in手续的年轻男子又长着一张华裔面孔，这有点让我感叹，旧金山的华人还真是多啊，我们初抵美国不久，从入境、租车到酒店check in，工作人员竟都是华裔，不过，这个华裔会说中文，而且说得还较好，应该在美国的时间不长。酒店房间稍旧，但还算干净，只不过床头柜上的电话居然如此复古，让我们有点意想不到。即使在中国，也很少见到这样的电话了。 行李放好后，稍微梳洗，我们便准备出门了，去圣荷西Soe Jose会小美丽。初抵美国的几小时 ，见到太多华裔，真有点怀疑这是美国吗？直到出门时，抬头，看见高高的楼上飘扬着的星条旗，嗯 ，我们的确已经在美国了。 去圣荷西的车程1小时，我有点后悔，应该把这第一晚的酒店订在圣荷西，而非旧金山。开车出发时已是下午5点过，路途中，小美丽打来电话，“我们还是去圣荷西的REI碰头吧，今天是周日，REI晚上7点就要关门，如果你们来我家，我们再去REI，会来不及了。”REI是美国，甚至是全球最大的户外用品店，玩户外的人，到了美国，怎能不去逛REI？甚至于，REI对我们的吸引力比outlets还要大。可以不去逛Outlets，但绝不能不去逛REI。REI在美国有上百家门店，圣荷西这家门店规模不算大，远不及旧金山市区的那家REI。但当时留给我们shopping的时间仅半小时，即使门店不算大，但对于这半小时来说也太大了。店里的户外用品琳琅满目，让我们目不睱接，所幸旅程结束时还有机会去旧金山的REI购物，否则，只留半小时给REI，会让我们悔青了肠子。小美丽说，我们是有多爱户外啊，在美国的第一张合影，居然就是在户外店。 离开REI，小美丽和男友Amir带我俩去吃饭。我们来到一个类似于酒吧的典型美式餐厅，餐厅内响着热闹的音乐，四面墙上挂满电视，正播放着各类节目，以体育赛事为主。Amir说想请我们吃最正宗的美式美食，而汉堡和鸡翅就是美国年青人的最爱。意想不到的是，美国人竟爱吃辣，而辣鸡翅就是这家餐厅的主打。小美丽知道我们嗜辣，尤其蟋蟀头，无辣不成菜，所以特地点了最辣的鸡翅，连服务员也再三与她确认，“确定要点重辣吗？”一大篮辣鸡翅端上来，辣是足够辣，但辣得太直接，除了辣，还是少了许多滋味，不像四川的麻辣、湖南的香辣或者贵州的酸辣。就美食来说，美国当然无法与中国相比。原以为我们会难以忍受美国单调的饮食，但没想到，我们在美国的27天里，虽吃得简单，却津津有味，不觉厌烦。蟋蟀头爱上了牛排，而我则爱上了可乐。一般来说，去一个国家旅行，如果适应了当地的饮食，便没什么不能适应了。 Amir是小美丽读书时跑步认识的，对她一见钟情。与她一样，喜欢运动，热爱户外。彼时我们四人吃饭时他还是她的男朋友，待我们美西玩了一圈，回国后，他们已注册结婚，成为她的先生。可能小美丽自己也没想到，她的姻缘会发生在地球的另一半。但其实啊，这世间所有的情缘，其实都是恰逢其时，早有安排。 D2（9月21日）旧金山—蒙特雷—卡梅尔—大苏尔第一次自助加油，101刀？按计划，今天会沿一号公路，从旧金山开到圣西蒙。沿途会经过的小镇有：Pacifica——半月弯Half moon Bay——santa cruz —— 蒙特雷Monterey——17 Mile Drive——卡梅尔Carmel——大苏尔Big Sur——圣西蒙SanSimeon，其中红字的是一号公路上的精华点，需停车游玩。车程6小时，加上游玩拍照时间2-3小时，预计全程8-9小时，只要早上9点出发，这一天的行程应该是绰绰有余。绰绰有余，其实是我想得太美。计划就是计划，而变化永远会比计划要多。早上9点， 我们已经在酒店check out，准备上路了。这个时间出发，尚在可控中。蟋蟀头没有赖床不起，让我甚为满意。 酒店对面有一个公共停车场public parking，我们的车就停在那里。一晚的停车费.74，在酒店前台缴费。前一天停车时，告知工作人员我们住对面酒店，停车场便出具了一张单子，让我们在酒店缴费盖章，然后便可以停一天一夜。.74，好贵的停车费，但如果不是住对面酒店，估计停车费用更贵。照美国这种停车费准来看，中国的停车费还大有上涨空间。好在美国只是城市内要收停车费，国家公园是不收停车费的，否则我们这自驾27天，停车费都是好大一笔数字。此时停车场外已排成长队。我一边排队，一边心里嘀咕着，怎么取车也要排队？9点过的加州阳光，已经毒辣得人睁不开眼。我傻乎乎地排队十多分钟后，忽然想起，这停车场里好像有一个租车office，会不会有可能这些排队的人是为租车，而非停车场取车？我走到最前面一看，果然不出所料，停车场里有一个Alamo的租车办公室，难怪这里会排成长队。有点后悔刚才自己不闻不问，就开始傻傻地排队，但也庆幸，仅排队十多分钟而已，没有浪费一小时才发现原来站错队。耽误了半小时，上午930，我俩终于妥妥地坐在车里，把Pacifica设置为我们的第一个导航点，便出发，正式开始我们的美西自驾行。但这一天正值美国的工作日，旧金山市区内拥堵的车流，再次出乎我预料。google地图显示的只需25分钟即可抵达Pacifica，看来是不可能了。我们的车跟在有轨电车叮叮车的后面，缓慢地行驶着。慢摇慢晃的叮叮车，让我们生出极大兴趣，决定待回程时一定要坐一趟叮叮车。实际上，穿行于闹市区的叮叮车早已不仅仅是单纯的交通工具，而成为旧金山的一大风景，是来旧金山的游客必定会体验的项目之一。 堵车、单行道、对路不熟，这几项加起来，导致我俩开着车在市区内兜了好几转才终于开出旧金山，蟋蟀头开玩笑说，他现在已对旧金山的路非常熟悉了。在Pacific找加油站加油时，才发现时间已经过去了整整一个半小时。而这原本应该是计划中的20分钟车程！之前看攻略，发现大家都喜欢到加油站所属小超市里找店员，付现加油，主要是因为自助加油刷信用卡时，很多时候需要输入美国当地的5位数ZIP CODE，我们国内的信用卡，哪有什么美国邮编啊，所以无法自助加油。但第一次加油，我仍想体验下自助加油，万一可以刷卡呢？美国的汽油分为Regular、Plus、Premium三种，一般选Regular（87）即可。加油机上有操作说明，简单易懂。把信用卡插入后，快速拉出，然后按提示选择credit card，如果没有跳出提示让你输入ZIP CODE，便可进行下一步，取油枪，选择要加的油号（Regular 87），开始加油了。油箱加满后，油枪会自动跳掉，然后便会从信用卡里扣除相应油费。但我们的第一次自助加油，卡在了第一步。信用卡插入后，如果没有快速拉出，便不会进入到下一步。但当时我并不清楚这一点，不知问出在何处。于是，我便进店里请求帮助。一个大叔热情地随我出来，教我一步步操作完。最后，油加满，油费的收费单自动打印出来，上面显示加油费8.62(单价.099/G)。当时，我并不知道我的信用卡被扣01，离开加油站一小时后，才发现招行发给我的微信显示，我的卡在加油站被扣了1。我吓了一跳，赶紧掏出收费条，再看一遍，但上面明明注明加油费.62，我又怎么会被扣1呢？可当时已离开加油站一小时，返回去询问是不可能了，收费条上也没有加油站的电话，唯一的办法只有打给招行。招行服务很好，打通电话后，测出我是从国外打的电话，便自动转入人工服务，省去我一步步操作所需时间。向招行确认后，当时的确从我的卡里刷走101美元，而非101元人民币。“加油怎么可能要101美元？”我大惑不解，更被这莫名其妙刷掉的101美元感到心痛。招行客服安慰我说，他们会跟踪这笔交易，三天后给我回复。当然，最后被刷走的实际金额仍然是.62，而非1。这1应该只是预授权而已。后来自助加油时也曾发生，明明加油.16，而当时却只被刷走。我自然也没有捡到这个便宜，该付多少钱最后仍会付多少钱。美国发达的信用卡机制，应该不会让人随便有机可乘，但这不经我许可，便随易乱扣的预授权，还是让人有点害怕。 半月弯——差点错过的风景加州一号公路的大名，你即使没去过，也不会没有听说过。蜿蜒于美国西海岸，从北向南将旧金山与洛杉矶相连在一起的一号公路，是所有人从旧金山自驾到洛杉矶的不二之选。所不同的只在于，你会在这条路线上花多少时间，两天，三天还是一周？甚至于，你愿意在路途中的某个小镇住上一个月，也不是不可能。一号公路太美，而路上那些小镇又如此梦幻，以至于在走完这条路线后，让我知道，我只留了两天时间给一号公路，是多么愚蠢的一个决定。但我的选择不仅是我的无奈，也是大多到美西自驾游的人的无奈，无奈的原因无非就是——时间。虽然一号公路的大部分路段都是沿海公路，开错路的可能性极小，但为了不错过每个景点，所以我们的GPS是一个点一个点地进行设置。离开Pacifica时，我无意中忘记了半月弯Half moon Bay，而把导航的下一个点设置到鸽点灯塔Pigeon Point Light 。当蓝色的太平洋进入视线后，自驾便多了一分浪漫与惬意。见路边停着几辆车，我俩便也停车下来，想看看他们停车的风景。走出车门，一阵海风迎面而来，带着阳光的气息。远处，蔚蓝的海水，冲刷出一段月牙般的海湾，拿出手机google地图一看，我们此时果然是在半月弯。不该你错过的风景，怎么也不会错过。 鸽点灯塔Pigeon Point Light——意义大于景致距离半月弯仅半小时车程的鸽点灯塔，是加州州立历史地，始建于1870年，至今已有145年，仍在被美国海岸警备队使用，是美国西海岸线上现役灯塔中最高的一个。树立在灯塔前的一个木牌上有鸽点灯塔的介绍，对它的评价极高，称它为加州的精神象征。我不懂为何灯塔被抬到精神象征的高度，难道是因为它在这一个半世纪里，指引了无数从加州海岸南面航行的船只，安全进入旧金山湾？ 如果你仔细观察灯塔，会发现它的顶端光秃秃的，那个巨大的灯塔透镜呢？灯塔顶部的的菲涅尔透镜由1008块玻璃组成，是当时世界上最大的灯塔透镜，据说发出的光线能让40多公里外的船只看见。之前每年的11月，这里都会举行一次盛大的活动，用100多年前的方法来点灯，利用煤油灯和透镜所折射出来的光芒，相当于点亮了50万支蜡烛，从而吸引了无数摄影师前来拜访。当然，今年的11月是不会有这个活动了。因为那个有名的灯塔透镜，现在正乖乖地躺在灯塔附近的小屋里。虽然灯塔在无数次风暴以及1906和1989年的地震中幸存，但灯塔透镜仍在岁月的磨砺中受到损坏，需要修缮。目前正由加州州立公园基金会，一个独立的非盈利组织筹集修复灯塔所需资金，一旦资金筹措到位，便会启动修复计划。灯塔透镜不再高高在上，却给了我们一个近距离观察它的好机会。 我没有灯塔情结，所以这个高高矗立的白色灯塔，对我没有太多吸引力。对我来说，它不过是一号公路上的一个景点，顺路拜访而已。相较而言，这海上的风景更为养眼。白色的浪花重重拍打着礁石，却能抚平心里泛起的层层涟漪，直到内心如海水一般纯粹。 鲜花盛开蒙特雷在一号公路的所有景点中，从景致而言，鸽点灯塔是微不足道的，再加上仅一个灯塔而已，所以我预计呆上20分钟，拍张纪念照就可以离开了。但，我们却在鸽点灯塔停留了整整2个小时，因为蟋蟀头喜欢灯塔，不仅从各个角度拍灯塔，仔细观察灯塔透镜，甚至连灯塔旁边的纪念品小屋也要慢慢逛一逛，花32.7刀买下一个灯塔纪念品。看看时间已到下午230，我们却还逗留于鸽点灯塔，几乎可以说是一号公路的启始点，我快疯了。蟋蟀头不做攻略，攻略由我一人包办，所以虽然他在开车，却几乎不清楚我们每天的行程，我只是在每天出发前给他大概讲一下我们当天的车程，以及会去的地方。我反复对他强调，和后面的风景相比，这里什么也不算，而后面的景点还有一长串。就这样不断催促，我们竟然也停留了2个小时。从鸽点灯塔到蒙特雷，车程1小时20分钟。为节省时间，我们在路上的超市买了点零食，在车上解决了午餐。后来的20多天，在车上解决午餐甚至晚餐，早已成为常态。下午4点到达蒙特雷。之前看攻略，提到蒙特雷，一般都是讲它的渔人码头，以至于我心目中的蒙特雷，就是一个喧哗的海边小城。但第一眼的蒙特雷，却着实把我们惊艳了。鲜花盛开，安静雅致。 街上几乎无人，此时的蒙特雷，静谧得如同一座空城。我知道蟋蟀头已经开始后悔，之前在鸽点灯塔浪费了太多时间；而我也开始后悔，为什么不在蒙特雷住上一晚？当然，后面的小镇，各有特色，而每个小镇都令我们有想住下来的冲动。 蒙特雷的气息令人着迷，适合陶醉，也适合沉迷。假装扮下文艺，也无不可。 去蒙特雷游玩的人，大多都直奔渔人码头（Fisherman's Wharf）。有人曾在攻略里大力推荐，认为蒙特雷的渔人码头比旧金山的渔人码头更值得一去，因为这里海狮更多。所以离开鸽点灯塔时，我们把GPS直接定位到蒙特雷的渔人码头。在渔人码头附近看到一个停车点，正打算停车，工作人员却告诉我们说，现在这里暂时不能停车，要换另一个地点停车，并给了我们一张纸，上面有停车点的具体地址以及详细的路线指引。但用google地图搜索后发现，工作人员介绍的这个停车点距离渔人码头很远，走过去可要花一点时间。蟋蟀头说，我们自己另找停车位吧。便思忖着去找一个路边的停车位。在美国停车，主要有两种，一种是公共停车场public parking，另一种是路边停车street parking。路边停车有停车线，而且停车位旁通常有咪表，需先缴费买停车时间。但我们居然在蒙特雷的一条小街上找到一个没有咪表的停车位。看看前后，路边上都停满车，而且的确没有咪表，当然也没有像国内那样的收费员。后来在美西自驾20多天，停过各式各样的地方，在旧金山、洛杉矶停车时支付过高昂的停车费，也在国家公园和所有的小镇几乎没支付过停车费，这才发现美国的停车费制度其实非常合理。那就是收费并非一刀切，而且收费是为控制，并非只为赚钱。人少车少的地方，不收停车费；人多车多的地方，收高昂的停车费。但即使是旧金山，到了晚上，路边停车也几乎不收费，因为这时候车少啊，没有必要收费。 传说中“游客云集”的渔人码头，人并不多。难道，现在是蒙特雷的淡季？但其实，渔人码头的栈道两边都是餐厅、咖啡馆和酒吧，当时已是下午4点过，既过了午餐时间，也不到晚餐时间，游客们可能在潜水，也可能在观鲸船上，码头上人不多倒也正常。 太平洋的海水，真让人怀疑是神不小心泼洒下的蓝墨水，蓝得如此纯净。但如果蒙特雷是一个人迹罕至的孤岛倒也罢了，明明这里游人趋之若鹜，海水却依然如此干净清透，没有国内景点常见的垃圾与海水中脏污的浮沫，是令我们诧异的。 海狮呢，海狮呢？我心心念念只想搜寻海狮。明明在别人的照片里看见，蒙特雷渔人码头的海岸边趴着一群群的海狮，为何我却只见海鸟，不见海狮。为此我还特地去问了一个看上去是久住此地的大叔，问他哪儿可以看见海狮？他说，没有海狮了。再问为什么？他的回答倒很简单，“no food, no sea lion。”海狮其实是一种迁徙性动物，会因食物或交配而进行迁徙，并不会永居某地。旧金山渔人码头的39号码头，在1989年旧金山大地震后，迁徙来了上千头海狮，并繁衍得越来越多，却也曾因为海狮要到南方海域交配，而突然之间消失得无影无踪。所以，如果你没在旧金山和蒙特雷的渔人码头看到海狮，其实也不奇怪。 没有看到海狮，但面向大海，弹支曲子，也很不错哦。虽是“假装”弹琴，但蒙特雷明亮的蓝天，纯粹的大海，此情此景，都令人心生留恋。 在蟋蟀头的镜头中，蒙特雷既可以简约清丽，也可以用多重爆光玩点技术。而重点是，我俩都爱蒙特雷。([]
欧亚成年男女午夜…
杨珮珊旅行，之于我，是一种生活状态和生活方式，再次背上行囊，离开熟悉的大都市，只身一人来到让我热爱不已的四川，来对一直没机会去看看的阿坝州、甘孜州等地做一次探索。一个月，从秋走到冬，再从冬走到秋，收获的不仅仅在相机镜头里，还在心里，有暖暖的情谊和让人珍藏的友情……这种感觉，在回到家整理照片和游记的时候尤为浓烈，在收到朋友短信问候的时候尤为温暖，在网上交换照片的时候尤为欣慰，在掩上电脑回忆时候尤为感怀……四川，我还会再来的！路线介绍：出门基本没计划过，脑子里只想过九寨、德格两个地方，为了把这两个地方串起来，于是：成都-九寨-黄龙-松潘-汶川-桃坪羌寨-理县-毕棚沟-米亚罗-马尔康-丹巴-甘孜-德格-甘孜-新都桥-康定-泸定-磨西-西昌-泸沽湖-西昌-雅安-峨眉-双流第一站：九寨从成都开往九寨的车，早上8点开到晚上5点。当时怨声载道，不过整个月走下来，这条路还算较好的路了。由于5.12地震后对从汶川、茂县、松潘进九寨的路影响很大，这段路一直在修，导致进九寨的路采取“单进双出”的限制措施，不仅是这个方向，从绵阳、平武进九寨也是限制的。每天从成都新南门车站开往九寨方向的车有四班，其中最后一班8点钟的是加班车。前一晚到达成都已经6点多，买票的时候已经是最后几个座位了。高昂的票价让我咋舌不已，170大元。以前导游书上说，120元左右的，看来真是物价飞涨啊然而，进九寨的一瞬，会让你觉得再辛苦也是值得的，因为九寨，真的是一个让任何形容词都失色的童话世界令人无比意外的是，今年冬天来得早，九寨秋叶正灿烂的时候，已经下了第一场雪。最高点则查洼沟的长海和日则沟的原始森林已经完全是银装素裹的世界。第一天和前一日在青旅认识的三个朋友一起进沟，到树正寨下来放下行李。早上7点多，有人没有几个，坐上景区巴士人也空空落落。树正寨似乎也才苏醒过来，在丹果(音)家住下，就急匆匆地赶往长海。天上正飘雨，感到有点小郁闷。前面几天可正是晴天呢。哎，运气不好。匆匆走过树正群海，在老虎海乘车点坐上网长海方向的车。一路上绚烂的秋叶、变黄的松树、前几日降霜后雪白的高山针叶林层层叠叠，层次感分明。随着海拔渐高，在下季节海的转弯处，彩色渐退，过渡至银色。窗外开始淅淅沥沥的小雨，逐渐变成飘雪。雪花打着弯向车窗铺来，虽然冷，我们还是情不自禁地拉开窗门，让雪点打在脸上。从下季节海到上季节海的路上，经过一片挺长的松树林，雪积得不厚，恰到好处地压在绿色的松枝上，让整片林子一层白一层绿，煞是沉静。上季节海面前，周遭的山体已经全然是白色，海子在天色、林子颜色的映衬下，完全是一片宁静的白，水面上飘起的一阵雾气，轻柔炫目。顺便说一下，上下季节海是不停车的，只能从车窗往外观赏终于，接驳车停在长海面前。一个观景台让长海的容颜一览无余。游人兴奋地在海子边拍照，但大家似乎都没有大声喧哗，不愿破坏这恬静的景色。初到长海，正逢第一层雾气在日渐温度的作用下飘起来，海子周围的山显露出来，雾气一层一层，把山体也隔成一层一层，浓淡相宜的山和雾在镜头中营造出仙境一般的感觉。美总是和爱美之人做时间赛跑，清晰的山湖海转瞬即逝，雾气再次聚拢在山体上，除了海子的表面，白茫茫的一片，似乎连自己都成了雾中的一份子。从观景台的右手边下行可到达长海水面上的栈道，和海子如此贴近，水中孤岛落满白雪，清晰地倒影在水面上。前方树林时隐时现，一会儿让水面呈现出海市蜃楼般美丽，一会儿水面又呈现出纯净的白，没有言语词汇能够形容这样的景色，唯有在岸边静静地欣赏。冬景很耐看，一种冷静冷峻的美虽然只有黑白，却让人总想往深处探寻也许大多数人都是冲着九寨之秋来的，没想到轻而易举地同时拥有了两个季节的感觉。秋，就像少女的眼神，含情脉脉，灼热斑斓；而冬，就好似深谙世事却风韵不减的少妇，平静地诉说着故事，让人回味。长海看台往左手边有个栈道可以下到海子的边上，这里更能看到海子的精华我们下到栈道时，游客很少，大多聚集在观景台附近。整条栈道上脚印也没有几个，此处雪厚，把自己的脚印印上去，特别清晰。一路可以走到贴近山边的镜头，倒下来的木头上也覆盖着一层雪，这是才意识到自己是走进原始森林了。和朋友在栈道上拍了很久，搞怪出各种动作，都不愿离去。来了三个兵哥哥，虽然严肃，但看上去年纪很小，让我们都觉得他们是乘巡逻之机娱乐一番。他们自己滚个大雪球，大起雪仗来。我们就上去拉他们拍照，他们立刻又做出一副严肃的样子，很有意思。最终，一个大概是年纪最小的被我们扣下来拍照，照片上我们笑得好灿烂，他却有点尴尬，很有意思呢。 离开长海，沿着栈道去五彩池。栈道不长，但走的很慢，一是路上不停地发现拍摄点，大家停下来拍个不停，二是前面一天下雪，栈道结冰了，一个姐姐的鞋子很滑，走起来小心翼翼。景区工作人员虽然已经不停地铲雪，但树上融雪掉下来，还是很快地在地面结冰。一路上可拍的点很多，虽然只有黑色和白色，即树木枝干和雪，但此景能出些音调分明的片子。很多爱好者架着脚架，在此耐心选景，冷对他们早已不是问。他们亮丽的衣服颜色，在冰天雪地中反而成为亮点，成为景色的一部分。五彩池，开始我以为是五个色彩各异的池子，原来是一个能呈现出五种颜色的池。当然了，海拔3000多米的地方已经率先进入冬季，五花山的色彩已经褪去，五彩池自然也不能呈现出五种颜色了。不过，这纯净的蓝色却不受天气的影响，即便在这样的天气，依然蓝得深邃。短短的一段栈道，我们走过就用了一个小时，因为一步一景，可拍的太多了。有的拍湖水，有的拍叶子，有的拍远山，有的拍水里的枯木。岸边还堆了一个雪人，广东姐姐把黄色围巾放上去，好漂亮，顿时成为一个新景点，我们拍好，在排队等拍照的人就请求他们不要取走围巾。冬雪覆盖下的五彩池有种透彻的美感，蓝色的睡眠静静地倒影着银装的山和松树，很淡雅的美快出五花海栈道时，天突然放晴，感受到太阳光温暖的一刹那，似乎整个五彩池也活跃起来。周围树林上的雪反射出的光，水面反射出星辉般的光，交汇在一起，我们霸占了栈道的一个绝好拍摄角落，很久不愿离去。游客真不少，我们缓慢地 向前挪动，不是走不过去，而是舍不得走从五彩池下来的坐车点，往下走几步，就是上季节海了，远远地看一眼，也是很好的享受。远处有一片工地，似乎在建房子，也许以后，上季节海也会成为一个停留点的。原来以为则查洼沟这边两个点很快就看完了，没想到从五彩池出来已经下午1点了。坐车回到诺日朗中心站，匆匆吃过午饭，几乎就是把食物拿出来胡乱往嘴里塞进去，就马上搭车向日则沟方向去。坐在右手边，一路是看不完的海子，不绝于耳的赞叹声。在诺日朗中心站稍作休息后，来到了日则沟尽头的原始森林。从上往下，是整个九寨沟的精华所在。这只是原始森林最靠外的一部分，所谓的“深山老林”还在更远处。在林子里，感到格外的静，人的说话声会被树叶吸收似地，隔一段距离，都听不清楚了。从原始森林下栈道走，经过芳草海和天鹅海，相对于五花海等景点，这里游客相对稀少。栈道隐在山林一侧，茂密的水草掩盖了海子，仅留出一条细细的水道让海子流淌过。天鹅海上有很多草甸子，说是雪足够厚覆盖着草甸子，就好像天鹅绒一般细腻。这两天的雪尚不足以完全覆盖草甸，略有遗憾。天鹅海虽然有白色天鹅羽翼的装点，但绿草青青还是很舒服的色彩重新上车过箭竹海，此海子得名源于此处生长的是熊猫爱吃的箭竹，据导游说，97年竹子大面积开花过，现在这片海子，完全是新生长的。往下不远就是熊猫海了，这个海子是冬天唯一结冰的海，但没明白为什么，位于3000多米的长海难道不结冰么？熊猫海栈道往里走，可看见完美的远山倒影，这里似乎比镜海还要平静，山的轮廓和树的形状都非常清晰。水面很宽阔，不时地飘起一层水雾，和远山上的起雾相得益彰，把大景观分割成一段一段，层次分明。熊猫海边有些意外收获，看到两个野鸭很自在地在梳理羽毛周围立刻聚集了拍摄的人不过它们完全没有被打扰的感觉接下来，就是最著名的九寨招牌景点五花海了，下五花海有两条路，一条是走熊猫海到五花海栈道，可以看见熊猫海瀑布，为九寨落差最大的叠瀑；另一条是沿着车行公路向下走，可以一观五花海如孔雀开屏般的全景，因这俯瞰的效果，五花海又名孔雀海。([]

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
