Across the Tianshan a duck into a donkey, scenery into adventure travel tour.
Broad and remote Xinjiang Uighur like a veiled woman, right we have the "irrepressible temptation." Donkey altar's famous remark: "In the limited life, the traveled infinite earth," the four of us average age 66.75 years, life really is "limited" the. Huaizhe urgent desire of the heart, September 15, 2003 we have embarked on a journey to visit Xinjiang.
Just started at a friend's call to Xinjiang, between the companions, the response by many people, a great organized an independent group of the trend, but implementing the policy, only me and chapters. Zhang is my friend, she said, "舍命陪君子had." Family was told that only two of us refused to release, only in the Urumqi, we arranged to participate in the "northern scenery Tours", before reluctantly agreed.
The day before his departure, Tang Sister rush to join because her husband was something happens to go to Yining Yining way invited us to go together to play, so we have amended the plan, preparing to re-Yining Staff Committee, Much to our surprise, after Yining No group can refer to, the following run-length, and only rely on our own RBI, and so Yincuoyangchai, ducks become Laolv.
Kui 312 Yining City and State Road was being renovated, poor road conditions, more than ten hours bus ride to the Yining Britain, our old bones should fall to pieces, and then such a jolt back, think about not Haner frightened. Everyone wants to bypass this road back to Karamay office, and then start the original scenery of Central Junggar Basin Tour.
Drivers "Marco" tells us: by the side embankment that pull away and jumped over the Tianshan Mountain, is not only a good road, and fame. The four of us can not help but have decided to pack his master Santana from Yining to Karamay, which wanted to, in order to seek ease and comfort, we have embarked on a journey across the Tianshan explorer.
2. Courageously break flood
At 9:00 on the 23rd (Xinjiang time of 7 pm), in light rain, we set off, the flat stretch of the 218 national highway to take us across the Kashi River, across the barren Ferulic Beach, entered a new source of county, thus Gong and Si River and National Highway reunion, and all the way from near or afar with us ahead. Farmland along the golden, green pastures, rivers interlacing, Toyama murky. Listen to our praise, Marco said, "the landscape in front of it can be called America!", A word, so that our imagination started wings, "Ah! That pull crowds, the beauty of what you should do?."
While we have chosen such that a safe and comfortable, but also enjoying a great line of beautiful scenery triumphantly accidentally discovered several previously beyond our cars, U-turn back, Marco said: "ah? This road No repair pass呀!. " Chichiyiyi ahead for a while, after reluctantly told us: "It seems we have had to turn around and break the flood."
Big rain, we have the car left the road rolled into a small village, the village's muddy road, a group of ducks splashing in the water puddles in the road, more a swaying walk through the streets, blocking our way. The path leading to flood the village were farmers with large dead tree trunks blocking our car like a headless fly back and forth, like to a blind break. If you can not find the hole in the next flood, we would have to go very far back, re-take. At this point the road found a car flip over a mound, left a shake, right flash into a narrow alley, Marco decisive turn around to follow up. Out of the alley, flood started impressively ahead. Be Che Xingzhi beach, we can not help but stunned, before about two or three hundred-meter-wide flood, small as a fist as big as the formation of the flood basin of the pebbles, sometimes emitted the river, sometimes hidden into the water, and water and a rocky beach in the wrong longitudinal phase inlay and there is no way. Marco exploring crawl forward until the face of an ocean surface hesitate, he said, "see the tractor of the bar! Dug in underwater traps, and so on your car falls over, they would earn good money trailer . If we stay stuck, and wasted time, dark, the next it would not Tianshan dangerous. " To listen to remark, the reigning heart emits air-conditioning, This Natiao understand the value of State Road 312. We have decided not to venture Xiahe, etc. to clear the way other carts. Soon to open opposite to a large truck, we have five pairs of eyes looking at it running over, and then Mage Jia horse power, follow the path of its flood break. We shouted in unison: "Come on! Refueling!." Vehicle spray flying, we have the same car as the boat crossed the water, everyone cheered, "We come in! Us coming in!." In this way, stop-go, and we eventually on the national highway. Looking back to that body sideways a van stuck in the river, the more we have a bold but cautious, skilled Marco, and his well-maintained Santana and fortunate.
三. Two inverted ice sheet was pulled up to the beauty of embankment grassland or exceeded our imagination. Here to ease rolling hills, grasslands magnanimous vast, vast green of the carpet from the river covered with downy hills covered valley, was spread to the distant snow-capped mountains, rows of tall and straight, such as the Schrenk spruce Jianban stabbing vault of heaven. Wilderness, the white curl of smoke rising yurt. Yanger geraniol towards the winter pastures in droves. That pull Tsutsumi is a melodious pastoral, direct us to this melting pure nature, and we thank Marco, not you, we where able to come to this paradise, in order to come here, preferring to re-Chuang 10 second rapids.
After a special buy Japanese and g, we turn on the highway alone library, it's just a non-wide Shashi Lu, named for the 217 national highway, it is far-fetched.
Auto spiral trees faded, meadow disappeared, more and more steep hill, suddenly covered with snow on the hillside, we are excited to jump out of car, toward the snow-capped mountains, ah! Guangdong's friends, we went to the real snow-capped mountains of the.
Wind in the call sign, rain sandwiched snowflakes, unusual cold, and another four in the cold wind howling in the drizzling rain left a shadow, I hurry back to the warm car, Marco Heating opened for us long ago, he told us, "is in front of the ice up to board the. "
With the rising mountain, peaks more steep ditch deeper tunnel was mudslides washed away the bad road worse, the rain has become a large tracts of snow, endless land falling down, the mountain peaks, deep valleys full coverage. A vast expanse of whiteness, not tell it is on the hill that is groove, it was day, that is land. In this there is no color, no mountains and little hills of life, only we have a car driving in the wind and snow, seems so lonely and helpless. Suddenly roha trench two trucks overturned, we will also bring to mind referred to the throat, the scenery is so magnificent, no one made off camera, there is no singing, no talking, they are afraid of horses scattered Master's attention, because they are afraid alerted the mountain, alerted the snow, I prayed silently in their hearts: all deities, bless us safely down the mountain bar!
Bought from the special day and a total of g to Qiao Erma only 83KM but because the height difference between, forming a very different landscape. Scary turn the ice up to board, we went from ice and snow to the picturesque valley of Kashgar.
In Qiao Erma Road, next to a 13-meter-high single library Tianshan Road, monuments, carved on the face of Beishang the road at the expense of 124 names of soldiers can not but appreciate is that they have his life in exchange for a " Tianshan change thoroughfare, "we were able to walk through the beautiful hinterland of the Tianshan.
Qiao Erma to Kuitun only 136KM, we thought no longer had dangerous. 1, when a snow-capped mountains towering in front of us, we are scaring the daylights out: how the ice sheet came up? Ice up shell is not an original names, but only "rugged mountains" of commonly known, has just passed 3600 meters high jade Xi Mole-Qaeda board, this is high up to 3400 meters of Hashel root plate. Originally in October was snowbound mountainous, but, as early as this year's cold, the snow ahead of immediate concern, precisely these ass hit by us. Seeing that the evening had been to, in our minds the helplessness and anxiety is really hard to describe. Already now, had to cross under the amity, forward, forward, and then move forward with us to help it master motive force driving the four ahead.
四. Devil's Canyon to escape out a second sheet of ice up to greet us and no longer does what is in Wonderland, but the Sound from the Dark bursts of ghost town, Kuitun valley in the Tianshan Mountains in accordance with Hal northern slope of Mount duo, but also because of peak height Gap narrow, warm wet air can not enter, rainfall is extremely rare, mountains are bare rock, do not see a tree, a grass, a bird. Road on the left are the cliffs on the right is a vertical downward ravine, valley river surging, roaring with roll away. Earthly Branches with a hideous monster with precarious rocks, as if the touch down of the building blocks. Between the cliff, there are many great rock slope landslides, such as cough cough soon as they can lead to Zhixie down. Not long ago a major landslide occurred in flooded roads, we repair the sidewalk along the new bypass it, not feel scared. Days have been dark, thick black huge pressure of the cliff to the road, our car like a little ant, is to escape this fate Fen gloomy silence of the Devil Canyon. I finally could not help but once again asked Marco, "How much further could be coming out?." Master Ma has been a moderate angry "segment, a section, and we are most afraid of you so the driver asked." Or for some, but who does not dare to ask: "section of" how long after that paragraph there is not another paragraph.
Finally the dark days on the road was finally no longer be downward-sloping, rock finally no longer be forced to come to us, we feel is out of the mountains, but none of us can not be happy, because I do not know When did, fog Yanyanshishi to surrounded us, headlights illuminate the road less than 10 meters, in addition to this short road, all around a chaos. Thick fog like cotton, to us and the outside world completely cut off from the outside threat is completely unknown what the potential danger of completely unknown there. I think this is the most fear in my life when the most helpless Hou, just like the movie a little girl hiding in the dark, listening to the killer's footsteps approaching nowhere to escape and the like.
MA Master Screen noiselessly gas cautiously walking pace, time flies can be really slow on this day more than 10 hours sitting in the car went through so many hardships and dangers, at the moment and no one who Dake Shui, all Dengda the eyes looked at it see through the fog, so when the fog disappeared, Dushanzi a brilliant light Tude lying on the front, then we fly, such as from hell to heaven, and perhaps lonely astronauts return to earth from the loneliness of space of times, it was such a mood bar!
Ah, this strange and beautiful and dangerous journey across the Tianshan Mountains, this long and exciting day tour, we tour the Xinjiang windfall. Friends you want to ask me: again Ganbu Gan. I can tell you, I'm looking for a: Do not take the suffocation of people 312 State Road; not go alone It's incredible library of Tianshan; comfortably be able to go there Lahti line, and found I will Zai Qu. If you know, please let me know.
