How to climb Mount Xixiabang?

Xixiabangma Mountain is one of the 14 peaks in the world with an altitude of over 8,000 meters. Until the 1960s, it had not been set foot in by human beings. Therefore, it is also called "Black Mount Everest" and has attracted the attention of mountain climbers all over the world.

"Xixiabangma" comes from Tibetan, which means "the mountains are short of oxygen and the climate is changeable". It is located in nyalam county, Xizang Autonomous Region, only 120km away from Mount Everest. Its altitude is 80 12 meters, which is one of the highest peaks in the world. Around it, there are four modern glaciers with a length exceeding 10 km.

Mount Xixiabang is also a natural barrier to climate. On its south slope and north slope, different natural landscapes are presented respectively. On its southern slope, it is warm and humid, rich in water resources and dense in forests. On the 700-meter-high slope, beautiful azaleas grow. There are also wild donkeys, qu sheep, sunbirds, red pandas, long-armed langurs and other rare animals on Mafeng in Xixia State.

1964, the warriors of China mountaineering team broke into Mafeng in Xixia State for the first time, revealing its mystery to the world.

Because no one has climbed Mashan Mountain in Xixia State before, we can't find any information about climbing, and everything has to be explored by the team members themselves. This is a very difficult summit adventure. Despite this, the players did not flinch.

In mid-March, 1964, the mountaineering team entered the foot of Xixiabangma Peak. As soon as the contestants arrive, Shishabangma will give them a duel. When the athletes couldn't stand still, they found a pack of wild wolves coming out of nowhere.

The team members were deadlocked with the wolves all night before they defeated them. Because there is no information about mountaineering, the team members can't find the route of mountaineering, so they can only walk one step at a time and feel their way forward.

A few days later, they finally reached an altitude of 7700 meters. The players are in high spirits and ready to sprint to the top of the mountain. However, this road is both difficult and dangerous. Shortly after the departure, a team member accidentally slipped into the ice crack. Fortunately, it was discovered in time and escaped safely.

At that time, because it was still early in the morning, the temperature was tens of degrees below zero, which was extremely cold. High-altitude strong wind, carrying broken snow, "whoosh" came to my face. However, the players are not afraid. When it was getting brighter, they reached an altitude of 7800 meters. At this time, there is danger again. This is a huge ice slope. An athlete slipped and fell. Fortunately, he was calm and experienced, and quickly sent a distress signal to his companions and was saved.

Along the way, it was thrilling and difficult. The players are careful and trembling, and they are fighting a painful decisive battle with their physical strength. Finally, when they finally climbed another ice slope, they heard the captain shout "Feng". Everyone felt refreshed and strode forward, but when they got closer, it was just a bulging snowdrift.

The players continued to climb. The wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the road to the top looks so long. However, everyone has no choice. We passed another snow ridge, getting closer and closer to the sky. Many things happen. 10: 20, the people of China conquered the last peak in the world-the Black Virgin Peak, and the five-star red flag fluttered high above Mashan in Xixia State.
