DAY4: Baizha Forest Farm - Mangda
When I was hesitating whether to choose the big road or the small road to enter Tibet, most of the messages in the circle of friends were: safety is the priority, the national road is convenient for accommodation, and the rural road is unknown. Although it is a bit risky, when you see the wreckage of the truck on the side of the national road, You will understand that the danger is around you...
The road from Baizha Forest Farm to Qamdo is hard to find on the map. When zoomed in to level 20 on the Google satellite map, traces can be seen faintly. It flows down the Baqu River and enters Angqu after entering the boundary of Qamdo.
I didn’t consider walking this section at all during the planning, I only knew that it was a virgin forest. After riding to the end of the bag, after several times of asking for directions and thinking about it, I plunged into the forest farm
Cycling through the woods like a wild horse
After it rained at night, there was water on the road, and it was too late to get out of the way, and it was directly crushed. The splashed muddy water splashed on the face and glasses, and I didn't bother to wipe it off. The bridge creaks when you step on it, and it is frightening. Seeing these remaining buildings, it seems that you have traveled back to the past
With the rapid development of science and technology today, the original scenery is rare, which is also one of the motivations for deciding to take a small road. In places that are inaccessible, they often leave a deep impression.
At the beginning, the road was close to the river bank without much ups and downs, and then it gradually deviated from the river and became narrow and steep. The towering pine trees pierced into the sky, filled with a faint fragrance. All of a sudden, I became alert and looked around with breathless concentration.
After careful identification, the sound was obviously made by a broken tree. Could it be that Xiong Er is haunting? It may also be that someone is cutting down trees. Walking through the quiet dense forest, I feel a little nervous when there is a slight noise. I feel that there are many pairs of eyes staring at me when I am exposed to the light.
Climbing to the middle of the hillside, the fog dissipated and the field of vision widened a lot. After walking through the dark road, my hanging heart slowly relaxed. This environment reminded me of Yadong, Tibet, when it was raining at night, A person with a flashlight, one foot deep and one foot shallow, explores the way in the woods. After thinking about it, I will be afraid and never dare to put myself in a similar situation.
Between the national road and the rural road, it is undoubtedly a bit risky to choose to take the small road, but there is also a temptation that is hard to resist. From the pictures, you can feel that there are few cars and quiet, and even the poor road conditions increase the fun of the journey.
Just when I was proud of this, the boat capsized in front of a small steep slope. I wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to speed up, but the speed change was not timely, causing the front wheel to tilt up, and it stood upright like a frightened horse, and stumbled Backed away, still not steady, fell on his back
Together with the fender under the rear camel bag, it was also broken. I learned a lesson, and when I encountered a slope in the back, I honestly got down to push the cart
Out of the forest, villages and people come into view one after another. The wind in the valley brushes over the treetops and gently blows the prayer flags on the handlebars. Under the sun, the fragrance of barley fields and pine trees is refreshing. Looking around, there are mountains There are woods, rivers and farmland, plus macaques running past in a hurry, Xanadu is nothing more than that
The appearance of the macaque was a small surprise during the journey. I was intoxicated by the scenery and tried to record a video while riding a bicycle. Suddenly, several lamb-sized animals rushed out from the side of the road. One by two, getting more and more Many, roughly 5 or 6
The speed was very fast, and before I could react, I ran into the woods. One of them was leaning on the fence and looking back. Taking the opportunity, I hurriedly stopped the car to take a picture. I took off the binoculars to take a closer look. The macaque jumped down and disappeared into the woods in the blink of an eye. middle
At that time, I didn't know it was a macaque, and I excluded pigs, dogs, sheep and other poultry. I zoomed in on the fuzzy photos and thought it was a baboon.
Accompanied by the original ecological scenery of this road, the slope of the road is surprising, which cannot be compared with the national road. The continuous hairpin bend and the gravel road make the wheels slip and cannot grasp the ground. Pushing up to the top of the slope, I did not expect a The observation deck, it was noon at this time, sweating all over
Standing on the edge of the railing and unbuttoning his clothes, his body was chilled by the wind, and he threw the Ronda in his hand into the air, watching it float...float...
After passing through the canyon of the same day, the villages gradually became denser. The sweet ice cream at the roadside canteen quenched their thirst, attracting a group of students to watch. I was very curious about the stopwatch on the car, said that I also have a bicycle, and proudly told me that I could ride a motorcycle
Seeing a few students around me surrounded by bicycles, I asked them to come up for a try. Everyone chatted while walking, and soon passed a few turns. When saying goodbye, I felt a lot easier when I got on the bicycle again. I only heard A voice came from behind: "Uncle, goodbye...goodbye..."
When the sun is covered by clouds, it often indicates that a storm is coming. Just now, I was cooling off with sweet ice cream, but now I am looking for a place to shelter from the rain. I am worried that there is nowhere to hide. I saw a snack bar through my hazy glasses. open door
Hastily parked the car, took off the backpack from the shoulder and looked back, the wind and rain outside the door, there were three or five people eating in the store, I was also a little hungry, I ordered an egg fried rice, and ate with the monks in the same room Chatting, I learned that my mobile phone has no signal
After the rain, I got on a motorcycle and took me into a hut in a monastery in the middle of the mountain. Under the operation of another monk Tashi, I activated the data card of China Telecom. Skilled use
This made me, a person from the city, surprised and puzzled at the same time. In the evening, I went back to the brother D Le whom I met for dinner and stayed in the guest room of his sister's house. The hospitable brother D Le was a driver in his early 20s. The father of a three-year-old child took off his clothes and got into his sleeping bag, some messy images flashed through his mind
The wreckage of the truck, the students waving, the floating Ronda, the flickering screen...
