Section 4 Look at the snow under the big flat beam

On Thursday, netizen Taihang Ranger left a message asking me if I was going to climb a mountain this week? Of course I understood what he meant, but the first few times I had been vague. Why don't you climb the mountain with him, it's purely a matter of personality, I don't like to socialize with people. Besides, he and I were friends who added on QQ a year ago.,I forgot why I added it.。 I have the impression that I have nothing to say and talked three times.

When I visited his space politely, I knew that he was also a mountain climber, and I also knew that he was a relatively professional book writer through his QQ signature. Probably because of the same interest, I read a few articles written by him in Q-space. Among them, I was very touched by the articles he wrote about his parents, and I felt that he was a person of great affection through the words. Through another article he wrote, I felt that he was a person who spread positive energy.

The above reason is that I didn't add my Q to anyone I didn't know as I did in the past, and I politely agreed to add it at that time, and I will definitely delete it later.

When he asked me a few times before if I would like to climb the mountain, I was not going to go with me. They must not be in the same city, and they don't know anyone at all. Another reason is that his expression and appearance and temperament are unacceptable to me, and his appearance and style are angular, which seems to me to have a sense of distance.

Until a few weeks ago, when my father died, I was very sad. Having never talked about family matters on social networks in the past, I expressed this sadness for the first time. Friends on the Internet expressed their greetings when they saw it, which moved me for a while and made me uneasy at the same time. The message was hidden on the third day.

Among them, there is the concern of the Taihang Ranger. The following week he asked about the climb, but I didn't answer. However, during this chat, I learned that he was a soldier, and I also knew his name and the title of his work.

When he asked me again this week if I was going to climb the mountain, I still hadn't decided to climb the mountain with him, and blurred the past with the same words. However, this time he reacted differently from the past, and directly said: Take me to climb the mountain together.

He said directly, I can't refuse: then let's go together.

decided to go together, so they treated it sincerely and left each other's phone numbers. After some twists and turns on the outdoor Internet, I decided to go to Dapingliang to climb the mountain. Neither he nor I have been to this route, and the post says that there is a big meadow, and that alone makes me tempted.

The meeting point is at Xiwan Road. Originally, I thought it was too early, and I was worried that I wouldn't be able to catch up, but thinking that he lived in Xianyang, he had to get up more than an hour earlier than me, so he decisively set the bell at 6:20. I didn't expect to wake up ten minutes early. As soon as I sat up, the phone rang. Don't guess that it must be a Taihang Ranger. On the phone, he told me that he had arrived at the radio and television center and asked me what I had for breakfast. Haha, this time the speech was tactful, obviously afraid that I wouldn't be able to get up, but I said that it was breakfast.

Thinking that he arrived so early, in order not to make him wait too long, told him to drive the car to our gate. Then I made quick preparations, and finally went downstairs at seven o'clock in ten minutes. At this time, it was still a little dark outside, and in the dim darkness, I saw his car parked accurately at the gate. Although it was the first time we met, we were already familiar with each other's appearances in the photos of Q Space. Therefore, I still gave up his car a little unnaturally.

After parking the bus on Xiwan Road, when looking for the bus stop sign for the assembly, I once again showed the clumsiness of my sense of direction. Mistaking the west for the north and the south, he said to his companions: You have turned, and I am more familiar here than you.

As a result, it must have been me who was wrong. At that time, I was glad that if I had come alone today, I would not have been able to wait for the car to meet.

Today is with the Daqin Club. When the Taibao car came, it was found that there were less than 20 people in total. I prefer such a small group, there are few people, and it won't take too much time to close the team.

The car headed west, and I don't know where it went, so it stopped in front of a mountain that looked like it was working on gravel, and then started its ascent westward. The way up the mountain is full of broken large and large gravel, which is very difficult to walk. Because of this, the dust content in the air here is so high that for the first time my nose is running wild in the mountains, and it is worse than in the smog city. This phenomenon accompanied me throughout the climbing process, and it was very uncomfortable.

After walking the mountain road paved with artificial gravel, start walking the river. The river is still full of rocks, and it is more difficult to walk than Yingpangou. And the higher you go, the cooler it gets. There was ice everywhere in the river, and when I went up, it was all snow, and the bottom of the snow was full of thick ice, and it was really scary to walk on it.

Today the weather is clear, the sky above us is blue, and we are always walking up the ditch where the sun does not shine. I like to climb the sun-lit hillside so that the view is broad. Like today, there are two mountains and a ditch, there is really no scenery to see along the way, and looking up at the blue sky is the best scenery.

But after thinking that you could see the flattest meadow in the Qinling Mountains when you went up to the top of the mountain, I still went all the way forward with undiminished interest. It's just that today's team leader is only 19 years old, and his physical strength is definitely enough to be a team leader. But climbing a mountain is not all about physical strength. He's inexperienced, and he's been here three times before. Faced with a mountain full of snow, he couldn't find his way. This line has only just been developed, and there are very few people coming. Now the sunny slopes are devoid of snow and covered with thick dead leaves, making it impossible to see the road that has been trodden at all.

He led everyone to climb on both sides of the ditch, climbing here and there, and repeatedly correcting mistakes. Originally, today's absolute height is 1,600 meters, and it is a very steep climb from the moment you enter the mountain. Most of the time it is on a slope of nearly 70 degrees. His repetition made everyone very tired.

Seeing the dumb mouth ahead, he led us in the other direction. The opposite mountain is high and you can't see the top of the mountain. I looked so worried, and he said it wrong a little later. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, it was decided to abandon the crossing with everyone. In the end, only 4 people and the small team leader successfully crossed. One of them was from another outdoor team.

Decided not to go any further, we buried the pot on the spot and cooked on the spot, and ate very comfortably. Two people who didn't know each other were eating the same pot of rice in this primeval forest, and they really felt fate when they thought about it.

When they were full, they began to descend the mountain, and the other cooks had finished eating and left. Now it's just the two of us on the mountain. The snow was so thick that I was always worried about making a mistake when I went down the mountain, so I had to look carefully for footprints. Only then did we realize that the route we had taken was indeed very far wrong. Now condescending, see a lot of shacks along the way. The state of these sheds also aroused our curiosity, and it was really difficult to understand what the same processing equipment placed in front of these sheds was used for. Every time my companion and I saw such a scene, we wondered what they were doing in this inaccessible mountain forest, and we still didn't understand the equipment that looked rudimentary.

When the huts were finished, they also came to the river. The river has a steep slope, and it is even more difficult when going down. There was almost all ice under my feet, and I had to be careful to go down, there was a stretch of river and we only walked 1.2 kilometers in an hour. Finally, after walking for more than 2 hours, I met the leader of the finishing tour and several travelers who came here in the early stage. The leader beckoned us to come over and bake the fire. We rested here and continued our descent from the mountain.

The lower you go, the harder it gets. The sun goes down in the mountains, and it gets dark. By the time we reached the rocky ditch, we felt that time was running out. Worried that it would get dark on that stretch of gravel road, I started to speed up my cadence. That's it, when we went down to the hardest gravel road, it was dark and we stumbled a little under our feet. Another traveler who went down the mountain together kept saying: Now we can't see the road clearly, how will those who cross walk down in a while?

Don't worry about this, no matter how difficult it is, they can walk down.

The team leader, Taibao, was uneasy about the lack of a smooth crossing, and I sincerely said: Today is very good.

I said yes and from the bottom of my heart. The 19-year-old boy leader didn't trap us in the mountains and ice all night. Besides, he also went down the mountain safely, which was a success in itself. At one point, I was worried about his safety.

This climb was the only time I gave up halfway and didn't end up seeing the flattest meadow in the legend, but we saw snow in the mountains today, which was better than anything else. The meadow is there, and it's okay to come back next fall.
