Chapter 113: Siguniang Mountain

Siguniang Mountain?

Fan Yang had only heard of it, but had never been there, so he asked, "How high is the altitude?"

"5000 meters, if you have a guide, it is easy to climb to the top, the altitude of Chengdu is 500 meters, the altitude of Xiaojin is 3000 meters, in fact, the vertical altitude of the summit is only a little more than 2000 meters, more than 20 kilometers of mountain roads, two or three days to climb up. ”

"Do you want two days? Isn't that going to be spent overnight in the mountains?"

"Sure, the route is like this, first to the town of Siguniang, stay in the town for one night, set off at 8 o'clock the next morning, walk more than ten kilometers of mountain roads, winding up the mountain, from 3000 meters above sea level, go to 4200 meters, the first day is similar to climbing Mount Tai, use to walk, generally before dark can go to the base camp, only the last 800 meters, is the mountaineering path, at an altitude of 4200 meters above sea level, the base camp stays overnight, get up at three o'clock in the morning, have breakfast, start the last day to the top, the vertical altitude is about 800 or so, the actual route is about 5 kilometers or so, climb up in a few hours, take a photo, leave a souvenirStanding at the top of the mountain at an altitude of 5,000 meters, there is a vast sea of clouds at your feet, similar to the feeling of taking a plane. ”

"5,000 meters above sea level? Well, just now you said the big peak, is there a second peak, a third peak?" Fan Yang nodded and asked.

"Yes, Siguniang Mountain, there are four peaks to climb, the big peak is the best to climb, 5000 meters, the second peak is 5270 meters, the third peak is 5350, the last sister peak, 6250 meters, although it is only 6250 meters, but you must not underestimate the sister peak, her climbing difficulty is higher than Mount Everest, no one has ever climbed up, and the snow can't stand on it. ”

"Oh, thank you. ”

Fan Yang pulled Zhao Guangming aside and asked, "How many peaks does Zhakin Mountain have?"

Zhao Guangming thought for a moment: "I'm afraid it's four or five." ”

"And what about the altitude?

"Four or five thousand meters. Zhao Guangming thought about it, and felt that it was wrong: "Or 6000 meters." ”

"Is it four or five thousand, or six thousand meters? You have to figure it out, if you go up such a high mountain, you may not be able to climb up to a meter high. ”

"Where do I know, why don't you ask the boss? Zhao Guangming replied.

Fan Yang went back and asked the boss: "Well, Siguniang Mountain is good, but I heard that there seems to be a Zakin Mountain over there in Tagong, do you know that the mountain is easy to climb?"

"Zakin Mountain?" the boss shook his head: "It's a grassland over there, right?"

"Yes, grassland, there are still dozens of kilometers from Tagong, I have also heard of people, I don't know if you have heard of it. ”

The boss still shook his head: "I haven't heard of it, don't you want to climb the wild peak?"

"Ye Feng?"

"Mountaineering paths, are all developed, like Siguniang Mountain, even Gongga Mountain, and Mount Everest, don't look at his height, the key is that there is a way to go up, there are many people who climb to the top, experienced, like Dafeng, Gongga, Nanga Bhava, these are all mountaineering base camps, generally in the middle of the mountainside, there is no base camp, how do you spend the night at night? In broad daylight, the mountain is more than minus 20 degrees, and at night it will drop to minus 30 degrees, below 40 degrees, you have a single tent, how can you survive in that environment? When it snows, it will bury you directly, and there is no rescue, it is too dangerous, you are a novice, right? I advise you not to challenge that kind of wild peak, there are glaciers, karst caves, there is no path, you will definitely die if you step on the air, there is no luck. ”

"So dangerous, then what if I just walked to the bottom of the mountain?" Fan Yang asked again.

"At the foot of the mountain, look at what mountain, the temperature under some of the foot of the mountain is also low, if the main peak is often under the glacier, the subsidence is very much, it is also very dangerous, don't try it easily, a lot of travelers don't understand, last year in the lost contact at least dozens, the body can not be found, and mountaineering, it is best to go to the local outdoor management bureau to register, otherwise you have reached the top, not even a certificate, isn't it a pity." The boss replied.

"Well, thank you, don't you say, we really don't know that there are so many exquisite, that's okay, you can recommend a set to us according to the equipment for climbing Siguniang Mountain." ”

The boss was happy on his face, and finally said that he moved, and his attitude was more attentive: "This is easy to do, we have always had a good cooperative relationship with the base camp of Dafeng, I dare to say, the guide who climbed the peak, there is no one I don't know, the guide is the most important, when you go in by yourself, just say Chengdu Jie Yue outdoor, you look for Basang Jia, just say that Zhang Jie introduced, can give you a preferential price." ”

"Well, remember, what about the equipment?" asked Fan Yang.

"There's a lot of gear, and first of all, you'll need a pair of snow boots. The boss took down a pair of shoes from the shelves behind him and said, "Mountaineering, outdoors, shoes, must be the most important, like this brother just now, why are my shoes so expensive?" In fact, it is expensive, he is expensive for a reason, like this pair of snow boots, waterproof, breathable, by no means comparable to ordinary shoes, you will know it on your feet, there is no velvet inside, but you will not be cold when you wear it, high-top, but in summer you wear, you will not sweat your feet, if you are used to it, you wear such a pair of hiking boots in summer, it is not much different from wearing a pair of leather shoes, this is his waterproof, breathable, warm, and more importantly, the protective function of shoes. ”

"Look at this pair of shoes, this sole, is it thick enough? Others this is a patented material, there are two layers of alloy plates sandwiched inside, knives can't get into, first of all, the hardness of the sole, it is a good protection of the soles, this kind of shoes also has a nickname called bulletproof shoes, the strength can be imagined, the other is the position of the ankle, mountaineering, the most afraid is to fall, fall, slip, no matter which posture slips, it will hit the foot, once the ankle is sprained, the mobility will be halved, serious direct fracture. ”

"But if you wear this pair of Arsenite boots, it's different, others this is a patented design, come and touch it, this is in the position of the screw bone, as long as you tie the laces, there is no gap, it seems to be called, the linear design of the human bow, and this high-top, it is also a hard material, it is possible that your head is broken, and your feet are fine, of course, if you bring the helmet I recommended to you, it is another matter, and the next thing to talk about is this helmet......"

The boss said as he put down his shoes and picked up a helmet again.

"Like this is also Assennay, you don't underestimate this helmet, I tell you about outdoor equipment, the most important thing is to pay attention to a matching, you look at this helmet alone, maybe you think there is nothing special, but if it is used with its jacket, goggles, with it, the effect is very different, in addition to falling, the biggest enemy of mountaineering, is hypothermia, the temperature of the human body is between 36 and 37 degrees, so harsh natural environment, as long as the height exceeds one degree, it will cause very serious consequences, cold is not good, hot is even more not, light is a butt to sit on the ground, find someone to carry down, serious cause altitude sickness, treatment is not timely, It's going to suffocate immediately, so a good jacket, he must have the two most important functions, not only to keep warm, but also to breathe, general fabrics are not good at all, others are synthetic fabrics, aerospace materials, why don't you say it's expensive? Like this jacket, it's only 960 yuan, which can be said to be quite worth it......"

The helmet didn't actually say anything, the boss put the helmet down and picked up another jacket.
