In the winter of 2019, it was hindered by heavy snow and returned in failure. On January 10, 2020, after more than ten days of preparations, I set off again to the place I yearn for – Genie. This time I drove a diesel 2.8 Wrangler and prepared rescue equipment such as monkey climbing poles, snow chains, shovels, and tow ropes in case of emergencies on the road. My world is small, even if I try my best, there are still countless places that are far away. Blown by wind and rain, experienced severe cold, I couldn’t even reach the most beautiful places. There are very few things I can do, when the breeze slips by your ears, when the sun jumps in your palms, then you can think of me. You will always go to those places, the snow-capped mountains are white, the lakes are clean, and the whole world is singing love songs to you.
The night before departure, put the rescue equipment on the car and take a photo.
Pick up friends early in the morning on January 10, and fill up the gas (it feels so cheap when you pay for the full diesel).
Although I don’t go to Tibet, I pass by Shangri-La.
Shangri-la welcomes me
The small Zhongdian pass in Shangri-La was very icy, and there was a big trailer in the middle of the road. I hung it on the low four and let him tow it straight, but there were too many cars at the time and I didn’t have time to take pictures.
Going forward, a Kunming car slipped into the ditch (I go to school in Kunming, I hope to meet again), because it happened to be at the bend, I asked a little about the situation and went to a safe place to adjust Come back to help (the one with the confused face is me).
When I turned around and looked at the situation, the right side of the car body had been completely attached to the retaining wall. At that time, the driver’s idea was to tow it directly with the tow rope, but after thinking about it, I told the driver the problem: If it is hard towed, then the right side will be towed. The whole body is scratched, and at the same time, the tie rod in the direction of the right front wheel is deformed. In severe cases, the entire body may be deformed. The driver asked me how to tow, and I gave the most reliable plan with the least loss: first use a shovel to hollow out the snow on the right front wheel, then use a monkey climbing pole to lift the front of the car body, and then put it on the front wheel pad rocks until the front wheels are parallel to the curb, then use the tow rope to tow the car out (so the only damage is the front bumper). The driver agreed with my idea because he was going to Lijiang to repair the car. If the direction lever of the hard mop or any thing is dragged out of shape or has hidden injuries, it will pose a safety hazard to driving.
The driver seemed to have called a few local friends to help me before I came, and wanted to lift the car directly.
It can be seen how deep the ditch is, more than half of the monkey climbing poles are in the ditch.
Dangerous behavior, please do not imitate! ! !
When I was climbing poles in the ditch, they were towing the car. I thought they were pushing the car, but after looking at the photos, I realized that they were pulling the front wheel with the tow rope.
As soon as I got in the car and hit the car, the driver of Wuling swung too far and fell into it again. Let’s continue.
The altitude is a bit high, and monkeys and climbing poles have to be changed.
The road was full of ice, and it was really slippery. As soon as the tow rope was pulled hard, the rear of my car was thrown around.
During road rescue, people have been arranged to stop passing vehicles 150 meters away from the road in both directions to avoid secondary accidents. It is inevitable that there will be difficulties when going out. If you can help with some things, you can help, and if you can’t help, don’t blame anyone. I only accumulate virtue for myself, and when I am in trouble, someone will come to help me.
After passing through Xiaozhongdian Town, I encountered another magical car flying off the road. I really can’t do anything about it, and the trailer has already arrived. Everyone must pay attention to safety when traveling, especially on icy and snowy roads in winter. I would rather drive slowly than let my safety go for a few minutes.
Skip the Shangri-La in the middle, all the way down the mountain to the Jinsha River, and go upstream to the fork road of Guxue Township to Xiangcheng (this road is newly built in recent years, and it is only 64km to Xiangcheng without passing through Derong Town) . Turn right at this fork to Dongwang Township, and you can reach Xiangcheng in an hour and a half.
About ten kilometers in, it was blocked, paved with asphalt, and it hadn’t been repaired when I left last month. It was only two o’clock at the time, and I asked that it would be released at six o’clock in the afternoon. I met two masters who returned to Litang, and discussed that the arrival time by taking the old road of Derong was about the same as the arrival time after the release here, so I decided to wait. Bar.
After the release at six o’clock, I ran all the way, trying to climb over the “river” before it was completely dark. Before I reached the pass, the road was all icy, but I didn’t hang the high four all the time. , Second, I want to leave the best state of four-wheel drive to Genie, so I have been driving very slowly.
In front were the cars of the two masters in Litang, driving so fast all the way, I didn’t catch up with them until the fork in Daocheng and Yading. I arrived in Daocheng at ten o’clock at night. I wanted to continue on my way to Litang, but because I was not alone, I chose to stay in Daocheng and continue to leave early the next morning. hint! ! ! Although the ruts on this kind of road are very slippery, try to follow the ruts as much as possible, because if you are not familiar with the road conditions and the width of the road, it is easy to fall into the snow-covered ditch on the side of the road. Be sure to slow down and hang the four-wheel drive to avoid ruts.
We set off from Daocheng at 8:00 the next morning, filled up the oil first, and met a handsome Tibetan brother at the gas station.
The morning sun warms people and cars
The street sign in front is the fork in the road to Aden Airport
A herd of cows blocked the way, and the opposite bus almost stopped.
After crossing the Haizishan pass, we parked in the middle of the mountain to take a rest. I wanted to fly the drone, but the wind was too strong, so I gave up.
Wuling is really a magic car, it runs fast on all roads. Along the way, when there was snow on the road, I had to put on the four-wheel drive before I dared to overtake carefully.
At noon, I went to Litang for dinner, and immediately entered Genie. From Daocheng to Genie, I lost a small amount of fuel, so I still went to fill up the fuel tank just in case.
This noodle is suitable, I said I want an fried egg, and I fried two directly.
Check in at the west gate of Litang, check in for Freeman in 2019, and check in for Wrangler in 2020.
The landmark of National Highway 318 is also what I take every time I come.
You can see this billboard about seven kilometers away from Litang towards Batang. After entering this intersection, you will enter the crossing route of the Genie South Line.
The road was still covered with snow, but this time I drove the Wrangler without worrying at all.
Last month, Freeman did not climb up this corner, and this time the Wrangler almost missed it. Halfway through the climb, I felt no power and immediately switched to the manual first gear to climb up slowly.
After crossing the pass of Blacksmith Mountain, the majestic appearance of Genie Shenshan appeared in front of my eyes. I was wearing sunglasses and tears filled my eyes. Fortunately, they didn’t see it. When I saw Genie Shenshan, I suddenly felt like seeing a friend I hadn’t seen for many years, and I really couldn’t express my inner thoughts at that time.
Life is neither long nor short, just enough to take a good look at the world.
You will always go to those places, the snow-capped mountains are white, the lakes are clean, and the whole world is singing love songs to you.
The fascinating part of traveling is here, carrying the current life which is neither important nor important, and browsing your past life and future life everywhere.
There is a icy lake on the side of the road, all the way down from the side of the road, rolling and climbing, and when going up, it is a direct four-wheel drive.
After crossing the bridge here, turn left and continue walking. Fortunately, I asked those Tibetan friends the way, otherwise I crossed the bridge and turned right.
Confused, he looked at the track for a long time, and suddenly found a road on the other side of the river below in the shadow of the woods.
Turning right from Lamaya Township, this kind of cement road is just enough for one car to walk. The second half requires a little power.
When I arrived at this pass, Gnie Shenshan was fully displayed in front of my eyes. Here, I suddenly remembered that in Teacher Han’s travel notes, it seemed to be climbing to the left.
Group photo of the Big Three and Ge Nie Shenshan
The main peak of Genie Mountain is the one on the far left.
When I flew the drone and saw the Eye of Genie and the Divine Mountain of Genie, my tears couldn’t stop flowing out, but I didn’t know how to express this feeling. Ge Nie’s eyes have been covered with ice, and the dark circles have basically disappeared, but here I appeal to all riders, view the scenery in a civilized manner, and don’t damage the environment!
After watching the Eye of Genie, it was already past four o’clock, so I didn’t visit Langu Temple (keep a thought for myself and find a reason to come to Genie next time). We crossed three such glaciers along the way.
The road conditions are not bad. It is not a rainy season or snowing, and a two-wheel drive SUV can still pass.
There is a whole piece of ice. In this case, you must get out of the car and check the situation before you go, so as to avoid the ice breaking or other dangers.
After walking along the river for about 30 kilometers, we came to the back of Genie. It is another scene to see the holy mountain of Genie here. The road has also become much wider.
After turning over the first pass, the road down the mountain is not very slippery, and the two-wheel drive can still handle it.
Pay attention to the fact that the front wheels are pushed out, which is no longer considered snow, and has been turned into very hard snow blocks by the wind and sun.
On the right hand side is a ditch. After freezing, all the water flows to the road and freezes.
The winding mountain road is full of back bends. I hang up my senior year and walk forward slowly.
The photos don’t show the steep feeling, but it’s actually very steep, and the left side is full of stones. Once the entire body is pressed, it will slide to the cliff on the right.
After passing this section of the road, I ran a wide gravel road for more than ten kilometers. All three cars stopped on the road ahead. When I got to the gravel road, I ran wildly. No one looked at the track. He reacted and ran away. I went back to the intersection and took a closer look, because I kept running the first car, and I paid attention when I passed by, but there was a village on it, so I thought it was the road to the village, so I didn’t pay attention. It wasn’t until Prado yelled in the mobile station that he seemed to have run away before he realized it.
Get off at the fork in the road, bid farewell to the wide gravel road, and start the narrow mountain path again.
It seems that no car has been on this road in the past ten days. The latest rut we saw on this road was from a motorcycle, which should have been taken during the day.
I couldn’t take pictures all the way by driving alone, and the co-pilot was sleeping all the time. The distance of about one kilometer here is full of sloping ice. Quickly remind the rear car to hang low and walk slowly through this section of ice. Turning around, I suddenly saw a wolf that looks more handsome than a husky. Look at my car. I drove over and slowly ran two steps ahead, looking back at me while running. I had the walkie-talkie in my left hand and the steering wheel in my right, so I didn’t have time to take a photo with my phone. So goodbye, brother wolf, and look forward to seeing you next time.
There is a cliff on the left side of this road, and a mountain on the right. There are stones on the side of the mountain from time to time, and when the car is pressed, it will slide out. It can be clearly seen in the picture that the rear of the car has been thrown out.
At this point, I was confused as to whether the road was going left or right. I stopped to take a picture and looked at the trajectory before I dared to go. (Why don’t you get out of the car to see, the altitude is more than 4,000 meters, the wind is blowing, and it is more than ten degrees below zero, no matter how thick you wear, you don’t want to get out of the car)
We parked on the pass and rested for a few minutes. The three of us who were driving smoked a cigarette to suppress the shock. We didn’t dare to be distracted all the way up the mountain, holding the steering wheel tightly with both hands.
It’s almost 8 o’clock at this time, and the distance is still far away. This time, I changed to a mechanical watch, and the luminous light is not bad~ (I still got it from my sister [Shangtuwei]) It’s a top replica, with good details, functions, The details are synchronized, and I have taken three or four dollars (Lau, Haima, iwc). The time is quite stable. LOVE riders can take a look, friendly help, thank you.
After turning over the pass, the snow became thicker and thicker, and the snow had reached the front bar, so I had to walk slowly with low four gears (the interesting thing is that the low four gears and two gears can’t push the snow at all when going downhill, and I have to step on the accelerator to move forward slowly).
On the way down the mountain, I couldn’t spare my hands to take pictures, so I took a few casually. This picture was taken ten kilometers away from Batang. Because the road surface has been widened and hardened after going down into the valley, all three cars ran very fast, and my Wrangler’s headlights were not very bright. When I came to a break in the road, I saw that the road ahead suddenly disappeared, and I almost didn’t stop. That section of the road is full of pumice stones, and it will be slippery if you point it in any direction, let alone brakes). After comparing the satellite maps, tracks, and lights of the three cars to find the way around, it was confirmed that there was a looming road in the river below, and immediately Find the bottom point, and change the formation at the same time, because I am a plain car without a winch, so I put me in the second car, so as not to be able to rescue any one of the cars if there is a problem (also because the 150 chassis is the highest, I didn’t know it at the time Water depth, first let 150 explore the situation). Because it is winter, the water in the river channel reaches the side bars of the Wrangler, which is not too deep.
At 10:30 p.m. on January 10, 2020, we successfully crossed the Gnei South Line. The first thing the three of us said after getting off the bus was that jio was soft and we couldn’t walk. Then we stretched out our hands and found that our hands were all black (in on the steering wheel). Because I was too tired, I didn’t bother to find a hotel, so I found a hotel to live in, had something to eat and rested. Crossing the Gnienan Line, there are thrills and magnificent scenery. Although there are not many pictures, I prefer to feel what I can’t feel in the pictures with my heart. Later, I will have time to update the Haizishan limit for six hours.
