Weather in Sapporo Snow Mountain, Japan

I don't know if their curse really took effect, or if Kava Castle, a snow-capped mountain that has never been conquered by human beings, really has indescribable magic. The mountaineering team completely lost contact on the night of 199 1 year 1 year, and finally reported peace with Yamashita.

This confusing mountain disaster has attracted the attention of China and Japan. The rescue operation of the Sino-Japanese joint rescue team has been frustrated repeatedly for more than 20 days, and finally the rescue can only be announced with regret. The joint mountaineering team 17 climbers confirmed that they were killed, but none of the 17 victims were found.

It was not until 1998, seven years later, that something appeared, which unveiled the mysterious veil of this confusing mountain disaster. But something even more shocking happened.

The name Kawabata is a respectful name for this snow mountain by local people, but it is more called Meili Snow Mountain in the outside world. It is also the most mysterious "Mount Everest" in China today. Although Kava Castle, the highest peak of Meili Snow Mountain, is only 6740 meters above sea level, far below Mount Everest, Mount Everest has been conquered by countless people for many years, but Kava Castle has never been conquered by anyone.

All the large-scale mountaineering activities from the beginning of the twentieth century to the present ended in failure, but countless people still tried to challenge him. The mysterious death of 17 people we are talking about today has to start with 1987.

1987 In the summer, a well-equipped mountaineering team came to the foot of Meili Snow Mountain. They are obviously different from the locals and immediately become local "stars". The simple villagers repay them with the greatest goodwill and entertain this group of guests from afar in their own way.

However, when the Tibetans really understood the purpose of this team from afar, the friendship between the villagers and the mountaineering team also fell apart. Although the mountaineering team did not hide the purpose of coming here, Tibetans at that time had no idea that the Meili Snow Mountain they were going to climb was Kawaberg Mountain, which they regarded as a sacred mountain.

In the local culture, Kawaberg is the god who gave birth to them. As a pilgrimage site of Tibetan Buddhism, every year in late autumn and early winter, hundreds of Tibetans lead sheep around the mountains to chant Buddhist scriptures and burn incense, which is definitely one of the most shocking scenes in the world.

After learning the true intention of the mountaineering team, the villagers who climbed Kava Fort could not be discouraged. They burned incense and prayed at the foot of the mountain every day, praying that the mountaineering team's journey would be a complete failure. But in any case, the action of this mountaineering team was approved.

Originally, they wanted to ask Professor Gao from our country to provide them with technical support for weather forecasting, but because Professor Gao really didn't have time at that time, the work was finally handed over to Lang, the captain of the mountaineering team who is also a doctor of meteorology.

But unfortunately, the final result proves that the doctor's ability may not be enough to support such an important mountaineering action.

1990 65438+ February. This mountaineering team composed of China and Japan officially set off. The total number of the whole mountaineering team is *** 17, with 6 people from China and 1 person from Japan. The preparation time of the first two years allowed them to make a very detailed investigation around the snow-capped mountains, and behind this mountaineering team, there was also the support of the Japanese consortium. Carry the most advanced satellite cloud image receiving instrument. To accurately measure the weather in the snow-capped mountains.

On the day of departure, a grand departure ceremony was being held at Feilai Temple opposite Kawaberg. As usual, the mountaineering team accepted the blessings of the lamas one by one. But no one would have thought that this trip would be a farewell.

After the mountaineering started, everything went smoothly as planned. Camps 1, 2 and 4 were successfully established. However, there are obvious differences between Chinese and Japanese team members on the construction of Camp 3. China team members think that safety is the first and the camp should be built farther away, while Japan hopes to seize the opportunity of fine weather and build the camp closer to the ridge to reduce the climbing time. Finally, after several days of negotiations, both sides made concessions and chose the camp in the middle of the location chosen by China and Japan.

From the perspective of future generations, China's choice is undoubtedly correct. At noon ten days before the disaster, there will be an avalanche in front of Camp 3. Fortunately, due to the insistence of China's team members, the establishment position of the camp will be extended backwards. The avalanche didn't reach Camp Three. When the avalanche passed, you can clearly see that the avalanche line is several hundred meters away from Camp Three. But luck is only temporary after all, and when the next crisis comes, everything is a foregone conclusion.

The last camp No.4 was built in the nearest place to the summit, in front of the ice wall at an altitude of 5900 meters. As a support for the summit. On February 28th, 1990, 1990, the commando team successfully climbed behind the main peak, with an altitude of 6200m, only one step away from the summit.

When the news reached Camp 3, everyone cheered. At this time, all kinds of pots and pans became musical instruments, playing music that predicted victory.

The news also reached the Tibetan village at the foot of the mountain. After learning that they were about to climb the top of the holy mountain, tens of thousands of Tibetans spontaneously gathered at the foot of the mountain and issued the most serious warning in their lives: "Ani Kawagebo (Grandpa Kawagebo), show your divine power, otherwise, we will no longer respect you!"

At this time, at the top of the mountain, the cloudless weather in Wan Li suddenly turned bad, and dark clouds enveloped the top of the mountain. Strong winds and snowstorms hit five commandos. Although their position has reached 6470 meters above sea level, the vertical distance from the summit is only the last 270 meters, but this last 270 meters has become a barrier that they can hardly cross.

Captain Inoue refused to give up climbing, stubbornly set up a simple tent and tried to continue climbing after the snowstorm passed. However, the snowstorm has not stopped, but has intensified. The helpless captain Inoue can only choose to give up climbing and evacuate to Camp 3.

At this time, Meili Snow Mountain was dark and the wind was getting stronger and stronger. Although the commandos want to evacuate, it is not so easy now. The commandos tried several times to find the way down the mountain, but they had to give up because the weather was dark and they couldn't find the direction. Helpless, they can only choose to collect all the materials together and plan to spend the night at the top of the mountain.

Maybe there's always a way out. Maybe this is the last chance that Kavanaugh gave them. Japanese player Shinhara wrote in his diary: "At night 10, the wind suddenly stopped, the dark clouds dispersed, and the moonlight shone brightly on the snow." Taking this opportunity, the commando team successfully returned to Camp 3 in the afternoon 1 1.

Try to think that if they choose to continue to evacuate at this time and temporarily give up climbing Meili Snow Mountain, then the final outcome will be another situation. But unfortunately, they chose to stay in Camp No.3 and wait for 65438+1 October1New Year's Day to continue climbing the Kawabata Peak.

However, since the 29th, a global snowstorm has completely enveloped Meili Snow Mountain. At this point, there is only a short communication between Camp 3 and the base camp. Besides, there is no way to help the climbers trapped on the mountain.

In this way, the time came to 199 1 1.3, and the continuous heavy snow made the snow at this time reach 1.6 meters deep. Zhang Jun, who couldn't go up the mountain because of the heavy snow, chatted with the players on the mountain as usual on the intercom, listening to their complaints: "When will this damn snow finish?" Zhang Jun said good night to the players and put down the walkie-talkie.

But the next morning, Zhang Jun woke up and found something was wrong. There used to be a noisy walkie-talkie at 5.6 o'clock, but now there is no movement until 7: 30. Experienced Zhang Jun immediately realized that there was something wrong with the mountain. At the same time, a small avalanche suddenly appeared near the base camp, but Zhang Jun's heart was completely cold.

He knew that there must have been an avalanche on the mountain. But even if they knew, there was nothing Zhang Jun could do. All mountaineering commanders and elite members are on Meili Snow Mountain, and those who stay in the base camp are logistics members. It is impossible to climb the snow-capped mountains for search and rescue.

Although the sky in Wan Li has been clear for four consecutive days since October 4th, 65438+/kloc-0, Wan Li has no clouds, but Zhang Jun and other logistics team members can only wait at the foot of the mountain. The rescue team is expected to arrive soon.

However, when rescue teams from Tibet and other places arrived, Meili Snow Mountain once again experienced a snowstorm for several days. In this search and rescue operation, there was a bizarre scene. There are three routes to the top of Fort Kawa. At that time, the rescue team was walking on the second route taken by the missing team.

But when they trudged on the mountain, they saw five stiff figures standing side by side, and their positions did not match any route. What is even weirder is that after a while, the five figures suddenly fell into the cliff one by one, which made the team members who had been searching and rescued for many days exhausted and scared out of breath.

After the trip, from time to time, players have auditory hallucinations, women's whining, and deliberately whispering. All kinds of strange situations make the search and rescue team on the verge of collapse and have no choice but to evacuate.

In the end, after more than 20 days of search and rescue, no information has been found, and the snowstorm in Meili Snow Mountain is getting bigger and bigger. The headquarters can only order to abandon the search and rescue and withdraw from Meili Snow Mountain.

On the day when the headquarters was evacuated, a terrible avalanche suddenly broke out near the base camp of the mountaineering team. A fir forest with a width of 300 meters, a length of 400 meters and an average diameter of more than 50 centimeters climbed to the ground neatly like a bow after the avalanche. Actually, this is not the main route of the avalanche, but the aftermath of the avalanche completely destroyed it.

After the Meili Snow Mountain disaster, 17 people lived in come to a bad end, and countless friends were looking forward to finding their bodies and taking them home. Finally, 1996, the mountaineering team of Kyoto University in Japan came to Meili Snow Mountain again after getting ready. This time, before they set off, they vowed to reach the top and fulfill their predecessors' wishes.

The previous mountaineering operation was very smooth. They climbed to the height of Camp 4 at 199 1. It seems that the goal of reaching the summit is about to be achieved, but on the day they boarded near Camp 4, the Japanese Meteorological Observatory monitored that there would be a snowstorm in Meili Snow Mountain, even more than 9 1 year, and the Central Meteorological Observatory and the local meteorological observatory in Yunnan also monitored it simultaneously.

For safety reasons, the mountaineering team immediately chose to evacuate Meili Snow Mountain, which originally took six days. It took them only one day to evacuate. But as soon as they reached the foot of the mountain, the meteorological observatory found that the original snowstorm was blown away by the warm current of the Indian Ocean, and now it has been withdrawn, so it is impossible to go up the mountain again.

After this time, Kyoto University in Japan said that they would never give up climbing Meili Snow Mountain.

1In July, 1998, many colorful foreign bodies were found on the glacier in Xiamingyong Village, Meili Snow Mountain. When I got closer, I found that this pile of things is actually clothes worn by human beings, which are mixed with many bones. Because there are no telephones and highways in the village. Only the younger brother of the village head ran to the county to report it.

This news also brought China and Japan together in this small village after years of searching for mountaineering teams. Finally, after careful collection, * * * found 10 bodies and 20 bags of relics. Among these relics, the situation recorded in the diary of Japanese player Sato shocked everyone present.

On February 28th, 65438+ wrote that the cold made the team members hallucinate and saw the dense figures outside the tent, as well as the laughter of a large number of women and the crying of babies.

65438 10/3, when the avalanche happened, it was written that many people in the mountaineering team had symptoms of persistent high fever and kept mumbling, "They are coming, coming, let me go home while there is still time." These words are completely confusing. At the end of the diary, only a few lines of very scrawled handwriting are left.

"I was wrong! We were wrong! It's too late to go down the mountain. Here they come! Help me! There is nowhere to escape from the darkness! Help me! I don't want to die, save ... "Many of these contents can't judge what is written, and even a few pages seem to have been torn off.

But in any case, Zizi made no mention of Machamp's confusion. For all these incomprehensible things, we can't simply boil them down to the so-called ghosts and gods. Meili Snow Mountain has a special terrain and is prone to natural disasters such as avalanches. Coupled with the wrong judgment of the weather, the snow closed the mountain and eventually led to tragedy.

But we should also give enough respect to the "mountain god" that local Tibetans have always insisted on. In any case, from 200 1, out of respect for the difficulty of climbing and the beliefs of local people, the climbing of Meili Snow Mountain was permanently banned.

Where people live in harmony with nature, the earth is not only the earth of human beings, but also the earth of all other earth life.
