Sense of Everest
After returning from the Yamdrok Lake, where most want to go is the Mount Everest of. But heard that Everest is a magic place, destined only be able to see.
Yesterday, Shannan just down the snow, for which closure of the airport of La Sagong Cannes two days, I heard that under the greater side of Everest. However, people with difficulty Iozzi fare is also talk down, and try our luck on the bar!
To the Lazi, the weather changes, and suddenly whipped up a southerly Feishazoushi's like the sun is blotted out. We Jizhe Wen drivers can not see Everest and the Tibetan driver Kangri then slowly say, the weather is also hard to say, you beg the Buddha Bar, he will help you. Camping at night, when more bad news came, the snow to the east of Mount Everest to Zhangmu port blocked the road is estimated that road will not pass without 35 days. Go or not go, everyone in the hesitation, finally kangri firm. "Walking, big deal to spend more days on the road."
The next day, the weather turned for the better. Measures over 5220 meters of the Clare Yamaguchi, everyone in accordance with Tibetan tradition, we piled a Mani Dui, and put the car on the hada tied streamer. I do not know is not the mountain god's blessing, over the pass, the same days as translucent sapphire, clouds do not know where to go rest.
At noon, the driver abruptly Shouyi Zhi Gang, said: "Look, Mount Everest." Down to his fingers caught between two mountain peaks in the exposed eggs, large white, and that is Mount Everest.
The world's highest peaks ah, I finally saw you. So, everyone took out their cameras burst of Kuangpai, while the foreigners with the car is lying on the floor, using telephoto chaos photo. This is hardly surprising, is the fourth day out from Lhasa from Shanghai also has a 5123 kilometers. Besides, who knows in a moment the weather is not bad it will be. Cars move ahead, and everyone's mood is excellent. "A worthwhile trip ah!" Some people said one. Yes, everyone in their hearts to respond to the.
Tingri to eat lunch at 10 dollars a bowl of noodles. Gui Gui Ledian yes, but we still eat very loud, after all, has the foot of Mount Everest.
In Tingri paid "protection money", the Lulu passed inspection station, turned into a soil Everest Road, entered the protected areas. Every village has a small child came up, as if we value the animals in general. The road is more narrow, and then almost exclusively on the capacity of a car passed.
In crossing the cover kura p. when he suddenly saw in the distance between the dust up some, "is a car." Someone exclaimed. Kangri driver looked back, face expressionless, said: "Yes tour buses, but there are at least 2 hours away from us the distance." They listened with both silent. Kangri added: "However, now is really low season, during the peak season, even in a place to live at the foot of Mount Everest did not (I have a friend go to 5.1, and no case).
Between the letter and you do not believe, and everyone rushes up the discussion, there is no one correct opinion.
7 halo 8 pigment reached the pass. Scenery in front of you life will not forget. So my wife will go to Tibet, I told her, in the Pass is the most beautiful scenery you see on this you can for home.
Four peaks over 8,000 meters lined up. The most left is the Makalu. 8463 meters above sea level, is the world's fifth peak; to the right peak of Lhotse is the fourth in the world, as high as 8516 meters above sea level. And it tightly like a well-behaved little sister nestling beside the world's highest peak Mount Everest; while the rightmost is the world's sixth Summit, elevation 8201 meters of Cho Oyu. It is a huge body, as its name like overlooking the Quartet. (Whose name in Tibetan means "chief respect for teachers")
Kiun spectacular as the goddess of the hair from the four peaks of the peak appears to the left Gone, lengthy and Sasa. This, however side by side with the polar aurora world-class natural wonders.
In the murder of a lot of film, the next to the Tashi cases of this from the Mount Everest, when the nearest villages, just as hearty a meal for diners like lazy I could not get the spirit.
If we say that the road is a bad way before then, and have a Tashi cases can not be called Lu Lu, and it is only a trace only. Dancing like a clown car-like rooms in the huge stone road, cars appear to be so small, each person's head from time to time, and close contact with the top compartment. Soon as voice exclaimed from time to time, it is out of control car when you were small ice involuntary sounds.
We almost tears in my eyes in the pleading, cook slowly opened. But seeing the Kangri Min Zhuozui, oblique bite cigarette, holding a steering wheel look like a pair of death calmly, so it was not to make sense of sounding like.
Tell the truth, he drove really unpleasant, from the Tashi cases to Everest km mileage is only 22 kilometers, can be drove nearly two hours, and is yet to reach.
Turned to the foot of Mount Everest show a sudden you will be seeing. Gray black mountain, like the pyramid-like towers; high Kiun covered demi sky.
"How fancy is not so high Well?" I quietly ponder.
"How that Everest is black" side of the person exclaimed. "Because of the wind, the snow swept away. While the wind again great, but people also blown away." Kangri replied. We skepticism listen.
Then, after a foot, a width of 30 m of ice lay in front of.
Kangri stopped a car walked a few steps on the ice, head down back to front of the car. For a long time, he suddenly said: "Everybody get off." We Silent out of the car. Just blankly looked at the car, do not know what.
I saw, Kangri-point distance of the car upside down, and then increase the throttle and onto the ice surface. To rely on a huge inertia, the car reached the other side crooked. So cheers of victory, we also stumbled cross the glaciers.
Today's accommodation - Rongbuk has finally arrived.
The world's tallest temple is not large, and 10 buildings spread out on the hillside. 3 Sule Pagoda in the temple to the left, while the highest altitude hotel called empty with none of the people. For a long time before the two monks from the Rongbuk down. , Arranged for us to stay there.
Anyway, I have a low resistance to the minus 5 degree sleeping bag, sleeping should be no problem as long as no bar!
5-point afternoon, we decided to climbing Mount Everest base camp starting (here in Shanghai there are nearly 3-hour time difference).
Out of the 500 meters there will be a one before the ice blocking the road, along the nearly 30-degree slope, people can only crawl like a bear-like in the past. The next road is the sparkle stone hillside, and be mixed with 23 100 meters there is a glacier. Everest in front of left, but after a long while without paying any attention.
Gradually down the dark days, my voice and subtly with the eyes of the Yi Gu Xue Xingqi, it is fatigue and lack of oxygen by the system. Passage of a few people because of their own strength, apart.
Look up Everest, suddenly found a huge mountain to change color, which is what we always dreamed of golden Everest. Great Goddess for those of us from afar exposing her most beautiful people in the face.
10 minutes, days off completely dark, you can clearly see the shadow of the sun in the mountain retreat of the fast. South wind blowing, as like an appointment. I have never met had such cold winds. Now everyone wants a U-turn back to camp.
Back to the Rongbuk Monastery is nearly 11 o'clock. With limited hot water washing of the washing slept. Sleep on the latter, but how could not sleep. Mainly cold, but out of the window across the two layers of glass are also clearly heard the whirr of the wind has deepened the feeling. There is no hot water, and then to be the case, only 1 km away to the temple to find, but now no one can go.
Finally found a life-saving bottom backpack chocolate and a small bottle of white wine. Finished this, finally is the point of warm-lived. As a result, struggling in the quilt is also stamped with the two stayed to sleep in the sleeping bag.
The morning sunlight, revealing a little bit of warmth. It ended the night cold and sharp winds howling torture for me. Look at the companion, but also a pale one. On the table, was frozen into popsicles, drinks to prove it all.
As a result, regardless of rhetoric to Everest before departure, under many nights, doing what the people, we all say in unison, go back! Quick return to Lhasa bar!
