    Rockwall BP

    记录一下,本人的第一次重装徒步旅行,8.27-8.31五天四晚Rockwall 穿越,圆满完成。 出发前因BC 山火而犹豫不决,不过最终还是决定抓住难得的机会,实现自己人生的第一次BP。结果是非常圆满而美好的。最高兴的就是每次户外活动都能结识一大批新朋友,个个身怀绝技不说,还都热情开朗积极阳光。这也是我非常喜欢这些户外运动的原因。感谢PNOA 的活动组织和后勤,感谢队友们的互相关照,一路走来比预计的轻松很多。菜鸟小白在逐渐成长。 打油诗记录一下这次BP。 卑诗深山远,山中有石墙。耸立万尺高,绵延百里长。飞鸟不能渡,传闻仙人藏。户外背包客,组队去探访。须眉九好汉,巾帼十娇娘。南线三女侠,随行有七将。北路七仙女,另配两健郎。两队齐进山,相约正中央。北路有领导,保尔当队长。还有小文青,记录做文章。晴空天色好,略有烟尘扬。首日穿林走,无景聊家常。安营扎寨处,飞瀑挂前方。营边有小溪,溪水刺骨凉。晚餐美食秀,锅碗瓢盆响。晨起拍金顶,美照约分享。迂回渐登高,豁然景开朗。石墙巍峨立,冰川万古长。小径蜿蜒走,雪湖洗脚爽。可惜野花败,轻烟如纱帐。草甸遇灰熊,踱步气轩昂。远远问个好,不扰巡查忙。三日最轻松,会师窄道上。拉旗拍合照,珍重分道扬。早早到营地,正好有艳阳。晒被晒帐篷,还可洗衣裳。餐后来拉伸,琳达教练强。早睡养精锐,次日不慌张。爬升近千米,才能到湖旁。景色在高处,最美好风光。金松林中走,垭口极目望。蓝绿双色湖,微风翻细浪。湖水太冰凉,放弃水中浪。闲适湖边坐,假钓学姜尚。冰川时发怒,雪崩轰鸣响。轮番摆姿势,美女拍照忙。祈祷天给力,日出洒金光。明天不下雨,外加星空朗。天也很无语,太贪没商量。夜半狂风作,晨起急雨降。略作惩戒后,雨收云雾茫。风止倒影现,湖山半云藏。仙境不常见,齐呼人品旺。流连不愿去,美景心中藏。出山奔温泉,美食任君尝。壮哉石墙道,圆满走一趟。

    Mt Seymour 雪地野营

    今年冬天是一个暖冬,迟迟未能降雪。户外朋友圈里都在讨论着如何退滑雪季票,很理直气壮的理由:因病要求退票!什么病?没雪滑抑郁了,这必须算病啊。。。😂😂 新年的第一个周末,今冬的初雪终于姗姗来迟。一夜之间青山白头,立刻点燃了温村无数雪友的激情。于是乎全城沸腾,有人携板执杖,驰骋雪道;有人呼朋唤友,踏雪登高;还有少数几位和我们一样,背起沉甸甸的背包,去雪地野营,看日落日出,享彻夜逍遥。 雪地野营于我们而言是第一次,领导听说之后也兴致盎然的表示要”参加“。这个”参加“的意思就是领导会亲自上山住帐篷里,而我则需要兼职挑夫,背着双份的地垫睡袋和各类补给上山😂😂。好在路途不远,上山途中更有美景随处可见,赏心悦目。有蔚蓝天空下的雪压青松,有白云环绕着的远山如黛,还有落日余晖在雪堆上映射出的点点如金沙闪烁。 就这样一行五人轻松惬意的边走边赏,悠哉悠哉的来到野营地。此时正好是日落时分,落日、晚霞、雪山、云海,还有日落之后粉色和蓝色的辉光云霞(alpenglow),一切美景都如同想象中的梦幻、温暖且美好。 太阳彻底下山之后,我们就开始平整雪地,搭设帐篷。然后挖坑做饭,煮雪烹茶。山友老胡还特意带了红酒为大家佐餐,我们则奉献了自制的牛肉干。坐在雪地上,抬头可见满天繁星,清冷月牙,俯首遥看万家灯光,烟火尘世。四周美得寂静,也美得令人恍惚。 上山一次不容易,我们的计划中不仅仅第一晚要看日落,还有第二天早上的日出。次日清晨的山顶,雾气渐渐弥漫起来,逐渐将四周的山头都藏匿其中。就在我们低声叹息以为无缘日出的时候,大自然给我们展现了另外一种朦胧的日出之美。太阳升起时的霞光穿透雾气,时隐时现。在不断流动、瞬息万变的雾气中,忽而看云海翻滚可见粉色朝霞,忽而有山林浮现如同海市蜃楼。我们就一直沉浸在不断的惊喜之中,感叹着造化的神奇。 日落日出都如愿欣赏到了。在日落与日出之间则是寂冷的夜。哪怕有最美味的红酒,最滚烫的姜茶,最飘香的乌龙,和最温暖的咖啡,也还是挡不住大自然无言的高冷。冷就一个字,辗转千万次。零下九度的清冷月夜,山顶万籁俱寂,微风无雪,即使全副武装也无法在帐篷外多待片刻。只能早早钻入睡袋,反复拷问着身为雪地野营小白的自己:“能熬过今晚吗?”,最后才沉沉睡去。当清晨泠冽的空气把我唤醒时,我第一个念头就是“自然很美好,生活很美好!”🤣🤣 部分照片 credit to PNOA:Gloria,花花,老胡
