Section 23 Lucky trip to Bald Mountain
It has been raining for the past few days during the National Day holiday. On the eleventh day, I braved the light rain to climb the mountain in Fengyu, the road was a little long, and the calf muscles had not fully recovered after four days. Looking at the weather forecast, the whole holiday will be sunny on the 6th and 7th. I couldn't wait for the 7th, so I decided that I would definitely go climbing on the 6th. I can't help but just a few days of rain, the road on the mountain is slippery, and I am really worried that the weather will change (in fact, my decision was correct, and it was cloudy on the 7th). It was still raining on the 5th, and if the weather was clear on the 6th, you must go to the high-altitude mountains. After the rain, the sky is clear, and if you are lucky, you will encounter a sea of clouds. The location was chosen at Bald Mountain, which is 2,800 meters above sea level.
The companion is a flower travel friend, who met six years ago by climbing the mountain, and is a gentle person. In recent years, he has rarely climbed mountains, traveled abroad independently, lived in a youth hostel, and turned around alone. In the past two years, he fell in love with rock climbing, and thus met a group of friends from all over the world who had similar interests and pure friendship. Not long ago, he just finished this poor trip, which may have made him encounter unforgettable things, so that he basically did not climb the mountain because of his lap, and asked me to climb out before the National Day holiday, presumably to share the joy of his journey.
When I set off from home at eight o'clock, the sky finally stopped raining, but it was still foggy, and the humidity in the air was very high. After entering the mountain from Fengyu, the sky gradually brightened, and soon it was sunny. The mountains became clear, and when I saw the sun that I had not seen for a long time, my mood suddenly improved. It seems that the weather forecast is accurate.
When the car drove to Feeding, the sky was blue, and I saw a large white cloud on the top of the mountain, as if there were also in the mountains, and some people stopped to take pictures. We didn't stop at the time, and we still have some regrets. The flower traveler said, "Don't regret it, maybe the front will be more beautiful." "That being said, I hope so. However, after so many years of mountain climbing experience, it is often missed and never again. Besides, how can there be the same scenery in this world, let alone the erratic clouds?
However, it is true that the further the car goes, the brighter the sun shines, and the light is clearer and clearer. Maybe it's because of the rainy days and poor visibility that I've been climbing here in recent months, but today it's sunny and under the bright sun, I feel like I'm walking to another place. So I had to stop and ask the fellow if the chicken coop had arrived.
As soon as I got out of the car, I saw a large white cloud rising from the valley on the mountain to the east, and the white cloud could only be defined by whiteness, it was too white. As it swelled more and more, it instantly pulled out a white and wide cloud belt, which accumulated more and more, and quickly fluttered in the mountains, forming a beautiful sea of clouds. The white sea of clouds is rushing in the mountains, and the white clouds on the blue sky on the top of the mountain are also drifting rapidly. The white clouds are on the top of the mountain, and the sea of clouds is not at the top, and between the two is a long mountain top running in the opposite direction. At this moment, the relative frame of reference has changed, presenting a spectacular scene, what we see in our eyes is the long undulating green mountain top, and the sea of clouds in the valley moving forward rapidly, it is really a sea of clouds churning, the mountain peaks are rising, and it is beautiful. At this time, the golden rays of the sun shine on the earth, and the light is thick and shining, and the whole mountain is golden and dazzling. It's really beautiful, it's beautiful, it's so beautiful that it's dizzying, and you can't open your eyes.
My companions and I faced the white clouds in the blue sky, the sea of white clouds, and the mountains shining brightly, and we were full of excitement and joy. I feel so blessed that I haven't even gone up to Bald Mountain to encounter such a magnificent sea of clouds. What a stroke of luck!
At the right time, we were in the right place at the right time, and we encountered the most beautiful scene. Because of this magnificent sea of clouds, we only have a little cloud surging when we get off the car, and it quickly converges into a sea of clouds in front of our eyes, echoing with the white clouds on the top of the mountain, achieving the most beautiful thing in heaven and earth. And all this was only three short minutes, and after we had feasted our eyes, we were blown away by a sudden strong wind, and a burst of fog blew up, and the mountains were blurred.
From this point of view, it is all played out for us. Because on this stretch of road, my companion and I, and a local folk, were loading dirt into the car. However, when I danced happily in front of the sea of clouds, the middle-aged fellow said, "What is beautiful, why don't I think I see anything." "Therefore, such a spectacular sea of clouds is presented to the two of us. Of course, the words of the fellow still made me feel flurry at the time, is he accustomed to it, or is it "looking at the mountain is not a mountain, and the cloud is not a cloud"?
Happiness came so fast. It was so fast that we couldn't get out of the beautiful scenery for a while, and began to go up the mountain, and we were still intoxicated by that wonderful moment, so that the mountain road that was already high up the mountain seemed to be much smoother. In my heart, I also vaguely feel that maybe the most beautiful scenery today is the sea of clouds at the foot of the mountain just now. It's the first time for Hua Traveler to come to Bald Mountain, I can't tell him that the chance of seeing the sea of clouds on Bald Mountain is very low, so let him be confident first. I've been to Bald Mountain many times, and I can't recall the days when I could see the blue sky and white clouds on the meadow. Therefore, for me it is already satisfied in advance.
On the way to climb the mountain, listening to the flower traveler happily talk about his experience in Southeast Asia in the past few years, it can also be said to be a beautiful and innocent encounter. He spoke with relish, and I listened with interest, and it was all very pleasant.
After more than an hour, the color of the forest's plants changes as the altitude increases. After going up to an altitude of more than 2,000 meters, after walking out of this tall arrow bamboo forest, I saw that the leaves in the forest between the road were light yellow and dark green, and there were many fallen leaves on the ground. The diversity of plants makes the dead leaves colorful, like a carpet of colors. Walking in it, there is an extra layer of poetry, and it is like walking into the intersection of time.
Continuing to move forward, I actually broke into the gorgeous Mid-Autumn Festival and saw the colorful and golden splendor. I saw that on the row of trees on the side of the hillside, the leaves were all bright golden. This is God put on the most gorgeous clothes for them, and they are also excited to show off in the sun, and the leaves are shining golden against the blue sky. It was so beautiful that the two of us said in unison: Do you still need to go so far to see the poplar forest!
What another unexpected surprise. I never thought that on the side of this short mountain road outside the forest, there would be this row of seasons to the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the leaves would be dyed yellow to the best color. We came again not early or late, a week early did not yellow through, and a week late came yellow. And on a sunny day, blue sky and white clouds, seeing the most beautiful tree is golden and splendid, which is pleasing to the eye, and it is even more exciting. At the same time, it also gives our admiration to the gorgeous trees in the mountains. They don't bloom, this tree is as beautiful as a flower, and you have to clap your hands to celebrate!
It seems that today is really a lucky day, and there are many happy events.
If you go up, there are no tall trees, and until the top of the hill are low bushes and arrows, the view is wide, and the wind is strong. We went up against the wind and felt the whipped pain of the wind blowing on our faces. At the same time, I also saw the different autumn colors on the mountain. Looking from afar, the forest has been lightly dyed, with the unique color of the high-altitude mountains in the Mid-Autumn season, whether it is light yellow or light red, it is a transitional color, a feeling of light wipe, and it conveys to us that the day of dyeing the forest in late autumn is not far away.
The higher you go, the lower the temperature as the altitude increases, and the autumn mood is stronger, and you can see patches of small purple trees, which are full of lantern-shaped red ripe fruits, bright and beautiful. There is also a small tree that bears a lot of fruit, full of bean-shaped white fruits. Such white bean fruit trees are everywhere on the slopes of the mountain that are almost at the top of the mountain, looking at them from a distance in the dense fog, like plum blossoms blooming all over the mountain, and the artistic conception is very beautiful.
The reason why I say it looks like it is in the thick fog is because the day changed after we ate the boiled yak meat jelly dumplings in the arrow bamboo, the blue sky and white clouds were replaced by thick fog, and the mountains were filled with thick fog, and the wind was strong and cold. At this time, the weather deteriorated, and the temperature was very low in the wind and fog. We were still sprinting to the top of the mountain against the strong winds. It was supposed to be more than 40 minutes away, but we walked for more than an hour. When I walked to the small house under the broadcast tower, I saw a lot of climbers preparing to descend the mountain, and it was the two of us who continued to move forward.
When you get here, you're basically close to the top of the mountain, and the road to the meadow is the wind. At this time, it is difficult to walk in strong winds. Walking to the position of the little leader, the companion stood up and rode heroically, but the hat was blown away with the wind without a trace. I couldn't stand on my feet, so I gave up and stood up to show off, and decided to come back after playing on the meadow.
I was still very excited after the hard walk to the meadow in the wind. "Excitement" comes from anticipation. Looking forward to seeing the blue sky on the meadow. Although the meadow was so foggy that I could only see the dead grass beneath my feet, I was sure that it was not cloudy and that it would not rain. It's just that the wind is too strong and the clouds are blowing.
The vast and flat bald mountain meadow is on the top of the mountain, far away from the surrounding mountains, and it is windy on weekdays, but today when there is wind at the bottom of the mountain, it is a strong wind here. Moreover, when we start to go up the mountain in the blue sky and white clouds on a sunny day, it is often a hundred meters away from the top of the mountain to the height of the wind and fog, and we are often under the blue sky, looking at the meadow with thick clouds. This means that when you go up the mountain on a sunny day, you won't necessarily see the same blue sky and white clouds on the meadow as you do on the mountainside, and the same is true on a sunny day. This is the fan-like bald mountain meadow, about 2,800 meters above sea level, so that it is always in the fog to see the scenery, the blue sky and white clouds are the most beautiful scenery. And this fog is actually the clouds we see at the bottom of the mountain, which means that people are actually in the clouds at this time.
It was the first time for my companion to come, and I decided to wait here until the wind blew into the blue sky and white clouds. At this time, the two of us were looking forward to it in the vast meadow. The wind was so strong that it crackled our clothes, and it was so cold that our hands were frosty.
We were chatting when suddenly the pole on the meadow was revealed! When my companion looked in the direction I was pointing, it was foggy again, and I couldn't see anything. It's so fast! We didn't care about the cold hands, and waited with our phones in the direction of the pole. If we can't wait, we just don't give up. As a result, just as we expected, suddenly the electric pole appeared at the same time as the blue sky and white clouds, as beautiful as science fiction! However, it was instantly blocked by a dense fog, which made us thoroughly understand the meaning of "fleeting and missing".
After a few god-like appearances, we found the pattern, as long as there is a blue sky ahead, we look at the direction of the pole, and that small piece of blue sky will definitely be blown to the position of the pole, and then we will stage a sci-fi blockbuster, and we will cheer when we see it. In this way, it felt as if God was playing with us, and when we waited without faith, the blue sky and white clouds, which were so small that they could only be used as the background of electric poles, flashed out. In this way, in the strong wind, we saw the small blue sky exposed in the thick fog, and when we appeared, we cheered, cheered again and again, and laughed loudly.
Thank God so much for amusing us. I guess that God must have been amused by our naïve appearance, which is why it flashed out again and again in such a thick fog. If you think about it, two adults can still be so romantic and innocent like children, how can God not like it!
The wind was raging on the meadows, and it was a little cold after a long stay at low temperatures, when the fog was so thick that there was humidity, visibility was worse, and the blue sky flashed at longer intervals. We know that God is urging us down the mountain. Then goodbye Meadow!
Walking to the stone like a little crow's head again, we showed off again. In the hurricane, the flower traveler could not stand upright on the big rock, and his unyielding appearance in the wind was still very majestic and chic. In the huge wind, I also staggered towards the big rock, but the wind blew my feet off the ground several times. I really couldn't and didn't dare to stand on the stone, so I had to sit on the stone with difficulty and take pictures and then left quickly. I feel that if you climb up, you must be like a hat of a flower traveler, and go with the wind. All in all, I still had a lot of fun and completed all the items in this trip to Bald Mountain Meadow.
Happy and happy, happy to go down the mountain. Half an hour later, when we went down the mountain and just walked out of the arrow bamboo forest, the sky was clear, and we saw the blue sky and white clouds, and saw the sea of clouds, and let us both happily take pictures of the sea of clouds. This also confirms that it has been a sunny day today, and the dense fog on the meadow at the top of the mountain is due to the high altitude, and we walked into the clouds. If we could see it from the bottom of the mountain, we must be walking through the clouds.
So far, today's trip to Bald Mountain is a happy and complete day, and it is a happy and unforgettable day. Moreover, today is also the only sunny day in the entire National Day holiday. We spent a truly sunny day in the mountains. Look at the bluest sky, the whitest clouds, and the magnificent sea of white clouds.
Then, in the strong wind on the meadow of Bald Mountain, the two of us are looking forward to the wonderful moment when the blue sky and white clouds appear, which is a rich stroke for our life journey, wonderful and beautiful!
