When going to Tibet - you must go hiking in Medog

Regarding hiking in Medog, it is actually to fulfill an unfinished dream from last year. I walked there once in May last year. When I reached the top of Duoxionla Mountain, the snow was too deep and I couldn’t see whether it was a road or a cliff ahead.

During the season of mountain closure every year, the snow in Duoxiong La Mountain never melts, and rain, snow, hail and fog come at any time. The climbing difficulty is even more difficult than that of many peaks of 5 or 6 kilometers, but the Duoxiong La Mountain in October is unspeakable. The same There are different scenery along the way.

The motivation for hiking may be similar to that of many trekking friends, because it is a hobby. As for danger, danger is everywhere. If the danger is controlled within a controllable range, there will basically be no danger. In addition, after reading many reports about Medog, the "Secret Lotus Land", people are always curious about mysterious things, and I am no exception.

Taken one day before departure

I remember that I used to drink water from the grass on the road. Once I didn’t wash my face or hair for 10 days. After I walked out, no car wanted to give me a lift. Today, on the road, a couple gave me a few scoops of the water they usually drink to wash their hair. , and even lent me a towel, I have received help from so many people on the road over the years without asking for anything in return, and my heart is always warm. I hope that I can pass on this warmth to more people in the future. .

Never give up on being yourself

Your world doesn’t stop at the living room and kitchen

Day1：

Different from the last time we hiked from Pai Town to Songlinkou, this time we took the bus directly to Songlinkou. At 7 o'clock in the morning, we started to climb Duoxiong La Mountain. At the top of Duoxion La Mountain, we wished our motherland a happy birthday and prosperity🇨🇳

In the transformation of Medog from "Isolated Plateau Island" to "Secret Lotus Realm", we also discovered more magical fruits one by one:

It rained just now,

Mud reaches calf

I can have so much,

With my limited eyes.

Every time on the road,

Compared to the scenery,

What I cherish even more is the people I travel with each time.

Because some people may never meet again in their lifetime.

I always feel:

If you want to learn skills,

There is only one way,

That's action.

Day 2: Big Rock Cave-Khanmi

In May, we dug up cordyceps and wild morels in the Grand Canyon. This time we picked strawberries, mushrooms, wild Ganoderma lucidum, wild Phellinus huang, and dendrobium in Medog. Of course, the happiest thing is to have a fire every night and watch your shoes smoking.

Today is also considered a leech area, but there are not many leeches and you can walk easily. This season, a pair of waterproof hiking shoes is very important, and of course a rain cover, stockings, gloves, windbreaker, and hiking poles are also necessary. Of course, these are not necessary for Dreams as Horses. You can see Dreams as Horses in the first few articles of my article. His writing skills are particularly good and he has appeared in many magazines and books. The poet who loves the outdoors is also a role model for me to learn from.

Day 3: Khanmi-back collapse

Boss Khan Mi Zeng - the first of the top ten influential figures in Medog (friends say he is an unprecedented person and an unprecedented person)

Boss Zeng’s house is the most comfortable. He likes to sit quietly and warm himself by the fire, drinking Erguotou and bragging with everyone, blowing and crying. This was the most tenacious day to fight against leeches. After a rain, leeches were everywhere. I watched them crawling on my stomach, hands, head, and face. I set off from the Khanmi Inn around 8:30. Pass through Leech Ridge, landslide area, Laohuzui, pass Ani Bridge, No. 2 Bridge, No. 3 Bridge, and reach the end point at about 3 o'clock with the Jiefang Bridge collapsed.

enduring heat and drought;

Weeping willows beside Poyang Lake,

Washing her long, loose hair;

Moss is under the Xing'an Mountains,

With ice, snow and freezing temperatures.
