Chapter 19 A Day of Horse Running
A day of running horses
Located in Ankang Haogou's Horse Running Liang, two years ago, I looked at the photos taken by my travelers, and there was a section to cross the cliff, which was a little scared for me who was afraid of heights, so I didn't make up my mind to go, but the attention has always been there, and I know that sooner or later I must go. Especially in the circle of friends of the United States, I saw my first "fan" with the screen name Qingfeng Haoyue, and I held my puppy camping and running horse beam several times, so I made up my mind to go. It's just that the opportunity never came.
During the three-day Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, the antelope team was originally reported on the first day, but for other reasons, I gave up after paying the registration fee. At that time, it was already more than seven o'clock in the afternoon, and I hurriedly searched on the outdoor network, and saw a family that sent a horse beam, and called to ask if there was still the last place, and immediately reported the name. In this way, it can be said that I was in a bit of a hurry, and my trip to the horse beam began.
There were a lot of people going this time, one big and one small. I took a small car and got on the bus at the fifth bus company, so that I didn't have to get up early to get on the bus on Xiwan Road, which was a good start.
The section of the dirt road from the Suzaku highway to Haogou is much better than before, and the road is being widened and repaired, and it has not been bulldozed for more than a kilometer from Haogou, and the car can go over, and the big car needs to be changed to a local van ferry. The car we were in got to the fork in the road first. And so it won time. Set off for the mountain first, and you won't be in a hurry.
When I walked to the rivers I came to before, what I didn't expect was that the water was not deep, and I could easily step on the stones. It should be another pleasant thing, and I used to wade through the water almost every time I came, which is why I hesitated to climb the mountain.
After two hours, I finally finished the forest farm road, turned left and started to go up the mountain. The way up the mountain is on the floodway, the rocky ditch is difficult to walk, the slope is also very steep, and the weather is very hot, I wear a book and fleece, which makes me sweat profusely and irritable.
Soon after climbing the mountain, you will enter the arrow bamboo forest, which can be said to be a non-stop drill in the arrow bamboo forest. Especially walking up from the pass, the arrow bamboo forest is dense and high, and it is still a little scary to drill inside. Soon we came to a hill that was very steep and full of boulders. There are two ways to go up, one is at the corner of the two mountains, and the travelers in front of them are all going up from that side. The team leader stood on the other side of the hill and told us that his side was good, and that the side of his teammates was muddy and slippery. We listened to him and climbed up the hill.
It turns out that it's too dangerous from the leader's side. It means that there are cliffs on both sides, and there is nothing to scratch on the mountain. Fortunately, the stones on the mountain are very rough, and the shoes are not slippery when stepping on, so they rely on friction to go up. The process was terrifying, and we were both dizzy with fear of heights. Thinking that it would be more difficult to go down the mountain, I gave up several times.
After climbing the mountain and getting out of the arrow bamboo forest, we reached the top of a mountain. This is also the traditional end point of the horse race. Everyone was playing here, except for a few teammates who went down to the meadow before we came. I have no intention of moving on. Because the steep slope made me really worried that it would be more dangerous when going down.
However, everyone had a lot of fun at the top of this mountain, thinking of ways to pose for photos. I was also very excited and had a great time.
As for the scenery of Paomaliang, it seems to me that it is very average, which may be the reason why we did not go to Daliang Meadow. On the way back, I looked at the photos taken by the travelers, and the scenery on the meadow was really good.
On the top of this mountain, everyone had enough fun and began to sprinkle. We chose to go down from the corner of the two mountains. It's much safer than walking up the hill. That's it, it's not easy. I looked down and everyone was sticking to the near-vertical stones, which was very dangerous.
In the midst of the danger, the whole team came down safely.
The descent was unexpectedly fast, and an hour later we were down the main road of the forest farm, just after 4 p.m.
So far, my trip to the horse beam has been completed safely. The wish of the running horse beam is also gone.
