  • Chief 3-2-1 Peaks Via Slhanay Peak Trail

      Highlights#1 这次活动PNOA由经验丰富的白水先生担纲领队和通盘指挥, 他周密的部署和事无巨细的定制计划,从路线到设备配备堪称精细完美, 为了防止有人掉队失联, 每人配备一部对讲机以防万一。 21位勇士手脚并用,行走在巨岩缝隙间,从早上7点开始攀爬,用时7个多小时。 路线上我们反其道而行之,从Peak3 – Peak 2- Peak 1, 避开行人密集,道路容易阻塞的天梯和铁链,其次人员分为快队和慢队, 有人开路有人断后, 白水先生穿插其中,每个转弯点都有人用对讲机提醒,没有错过一个view point! 登上第三峰眺望第一峰和第二峰,看到上面的人非常渺小, 手机需要个横屏·。应该说第三峰最容易, 不用爬梯或铁链, 山头有一汪清水, 倒影着蓝天白云,和我们team的五颜六色的着装,大家互相拍照,有队友还拿出户外椅端坐在高耸入云的山尖尖,凹造型摆拍, 好不惬意啊。 第二峰开始难度加大, 山石嶙峋,又陡又窄岩壁,有几段需要拉铁链爬铁梯, 然而最难的登顶第一峰, 经过千万年的冰河洗刷,很多岩石都成了一块光溜溜的岩壁, 几乎垂直于地面, 尤其是直上直下的云梯真的是考验胆儿的, 光秃秃的山顶, 四周毫无防护十分陡峭近于绝壁, 登上云梯我告诉我自己哦我今天到底是干了件多么疯狂的事情啊。。。 在大家全部登顶的那一刻, 胜利的喜悦溢于言表, 站在山巅上我们team大摄影师为大家留下英雄般的合影,瑜伽高手尽兴表演, 段子手妙语涟涟,石壁,溪流,高耸入云的劲松, 阳光透过树叶间隙洒向人间, 照在身上暖洋洋的, 这是人的内心与大自然的共振, 可遇不可求。。。 世界之美在于探险, 总有身体·在地狱,眼睛在天堂的征服感, 毕竟人是需要走出舒服区有一点探险的勇气, 上高路远看世界, 也是找自己。 感谢领队白水先生, 感谢队友的无私相助互相关照,感恩王大摄影师慷慨为大家拍照, 特别是男队员谦虚地留在后面断后,在每个路口等待和提醒大家,他们是大海,Roy,Romeo,Tony, Raymond。。。呵呵 山河远阔, 人间值得, 真好

    BC省对冬季车胎要求简介

    根据BC省政府的规定,冬季开车前往大温地区以外大部分地方(除了往南去美国,但是华盛顿州有些地方对车胎、甚至雪链也是有要求的),所驾驶的汽车至少需要安装有冬季胎(Winter Tire),最好有雪胎(Snow Tire)。以下是省政府关于这个规定的网站: Designated Winter Tire & Chain Routes Passenger Vehicle – Tire and Chain Requirements 什么是冬季胎?根据省政府的规定,冬季胎是有M+S标志、且胎纹深度不少于3.5毫米的四季胎。 什么是雪胎?雪胎就是车胎上有雪花标志的车胎。 不合格的车胎包括:1)没有M+S标志的四季胎2)有M+S标志、但胎纹深度少于3.5毫米的四季胎3)老旧的车胎,包括老旧的雪胎 如何测量胎纹深度?以下有一篇短文和一个短视频可以参考: How do you measure tread depth on your tires? 大温地区附近雪场对车胎的要求:去Grouse Mountain没有对车胎的要求,但去Cypress Mountain、Mt. Seymour以及Whistler都要求至少有冬季胎(有M+S标志的四季胎、且胎纹深度不能少于3.5毫米),当然如果是有雪花标志的雪胎就更好。
