Once in Huanghua Creek (20 10)

Last Sunday, several guys with the same hobbies made an appointment to go to Qingzhou Yangji Huanghua Creek.

I have been planning to go to Qingzhou Mountain for a long time, and I have been entangled in chores, so I have never been able to make it. Last Thursday, a friend made a phone call, calculated that he could still get away, and agreed.

My hometown is Qingzhou, and my friend asked me to decide the destination of this trip.

My hometown, Qingzhou, never left Qingzhou before I went to college, but my home is in the northern plain of Qingzhou and I have never been familiar with the mountains. This task is a bit difficult for me. I vaguely remember that a donkey friend on the Internet said how Yang Ji's Huanghua River was, so he called a high school classmate who worked in Miao Zi to find out the situation. Students say it's not bad to have such a place.

Tell the news to my colleagues and everyone agrees, that's all.

Get up at 4: 30 in the morning, gather at 5: 00, and seven people will take two cars and go straight to Qingzhou.

This road is quite easy. Bao Tong Street goes straight to Qingzhou and turns to Qingzhou South Ring Road to continue westbound; You don't have to turn, you can walk five miles, cross the Lotus Basin and cross Niujiaoling. There are two roads to the temple, one is Linzi and the other is Linqu. Turn to Linqu, and after a while, you will see the sign of Taihe Mountain Scenic Area, and then there is Yangji.

Actually, you don't have to go to Yangji to go to Huanghua Creek. Not far from Taihe Mountain Scenic Area, you will see the Huanghua Creek Hotel with wooden sign, which is the starting point of Huanghua Creek. We don't usually pay attention to it. We also jump to Yangji, and come back after asking clearly.

The so-called Huanghua River is a natural mountain ravine discovered by donkey friends in recent years. Originally, the name was not very nice, but it was nothing more than Donggou Xigou and so on.

Stop the car and start walking under the guidance of simple mountain people. Look at the time, it's not half past seven. I didn't feel anything strange at first. The more beautiful I walk, the more excited I am, and of course the more tired I walk.

Seven people * * * all feel the same way. Huanghua River is actually beautiful, so beautiful that it makes people tremble. All seven of us have been to some famous mountains and rivers more or less. Of course, those places are more beautiful, but our feelings are different. Jiuzhai Village in Huanglong is beautiful, but it makes people anxious and tired in the environment where people touch people and people are crowded. Huanghua Creek, as far as scenery is concerned, of course, can't compare with those places, but it is quiet and serene, you can enjoy it freely, casually and heartily, and you can quickly integrate into it. You once had the idea of staying too long.

There should be water in the stream. Huanghua Creek, there should be water.

Huanghua Creek does have water, but it's a little small. This season belongs to the dry season, and the water in Huanghua Creek is scarce and incoherent, so it can't be called a stream.

Judging from the traces, when there was water in Huanghua Creek, it was not small. This point has been further verified in the mouth of the mountain people. In the normal year, June, 789, the water was rushing.

Without water, Huanghua Creek will become a Huanghuagou, with endless mountains and endless scenery.

There are a lot of cotinus coggygria in the vegetation of Huanghua Creek. This season, Cotinus coggygria is in full bloom, and autumn is full of red leaves, which definitely has a unique flavor.

Man is the biggest destroyer of nature. Going to Huanghua Creek is dangerous and tiring, and not many people come. All morning, I met three mountaineering teams, including us, but there were only twenty people. Even so, there are still many traces of Huanghua Creek's visit here, and we often encounter some garbage such as mineral water bottles and instant noodle bags, and even the ashes of cooking by donkey friends, which is very disappointing.

Lu Yu's donkey friends told us that climbing along Huanghua Creek leads to a small mountain village called Huanghuapo.

I didn't intend to climb Huanghuapo. I just want to take some photos along Huanghua River and come back. Helpless, going up the mountain is easier than going down the mountain. Looking back at the road you have traveled, it is obviously not enough to go back to the original road. The donkey friends encouraged us to keep climbing and come back. We are not heroes until we reach the top of the mountain. We thought that there was nothing we could do if we went back the same way; Where there are villages, there are roads. It's good to have a drink and have a rest in the village at the top of the mountain.

I gritted my teeth and climbed up the small village called Huanghuapo.

The village was quiet, so I met some sheep and chickens. There was a sister-in-law selling pancakes at the entrance of the village. A man came to a bottle of mineral water and poured it down, which was much more comfortable.

After a short rest, the guys caught chickens and sheep again.

Guys, take a break and talk. If you have a small shop, catch a chicken, slaughter a sheep, stew slowly, get some Toona sinensis, Sophora japonica and so on, and sip a pot of wine slowly, and you will definitely live like a fairy.

I asked my sister-in-law, who sells pancakes, that there were no restaurants in the village. If necessary, I can go to her house to make something to eat. I asked where we parked. It's almost 30 miles from here. I soon gave up the idea of drinking and eating chicken. It's important to go down the mountain.

When we went down the mountain, everyone walked around in three steps and two steps, thinking about how good it would be to build some huts here. We stayed for ten days in the summer vacation, and we could sleep whenever we wanted.

Coming down from Huanghuapo and passing through a winding winding winding mountain dirt road, we soon entered another small village called Shuiyu, which is not much bigger than Huanghuapo.

The houses in the village are all old stone houses with quotations from that year, which declare the age and history and are still strong today.

At the entrance of the village, I met an old man who greeted us warmly and asked us if we were thirsty. Do you have boiled water? Thank you. We had a chat.

The old man told us that there were not many people in the village. There used to be more than 150 people, but now there are less than 70 people left. They all moved down, and the primary schools in the village stopped.

I didn't meet many people when I walked through the village. In addition to the old man at the entrance to the village, we also passed by a middle-aged man, two foreign merchants selling sheep, a woman washing clothes by the well, and an old man driving a large flock of sheep.

The old man at the entrance of the village said that he was eighty-five this year and looked in his early seventies. The old man herding sheep is obviously young, and he is estimated to be in his seventies. Looking down, he and his sheep are halfway up the mountain and don't know how to get up.

It took more than three hours to get to the parking place.

Panting all the way, we pressed the camera shutter and clicked, trying to take the scenery of Huanghua Creek, Huanghuapo and Shuiyu home and savor it slowly.

When we come down from the mountain, we can recall the high mountains and dangerous roads in Huanghua Creek, which we didn't expect. Some steep slopes are very difficult to climb, and some sections are quite steep, and they are all a little scared.

The hikers, hiking bags, hiking poles, hiking shoes, scratch-proof clothes and equipment I met on the road are quite professional; In our team, everyone is carrying a professional camera bag, and a few of them are still wearing baggy sandals, which is obviously not suitable for this kind of thing. When the villagers saw some of us wearing sandals, they were also surprised: it's too dangerous for you to come up in these shoes.

After going down the mountain, the guys unanimously decided that when they come back next time, the protection level of clothes, especially shoes, should be improved, and things such as ham sausage and mineral water to supplement their physical strength should be brought more or less.
