Jan 02, 2022. Mount Fortune hike. 元旦爬好運山。全程12.3公裏,爬高707米,曆時8小時。
December 27, 2021 @8:28 am. In company Slack, Tony shown a picture of an outdoor -40.0c reading with a note of “At least you don’t have to ask what that is in Fahrenheit”, and a picture of a steak on a BBQ oven with “I intend on BBQing tonight, no fear”. Peter commented: “Looks good, Tony. Good enough to risk frostbite? Not sure. Haha.” Tony: “It’s all about acclimatization and appropriate clothing. Otherwise we’d never leave the house all winter.” Brad followed: “The Swiss say, there is no such thing as bad weather, only bad gear.” 5 people gave Brad thumbs up.
要爬好運山並不容易,它位於Spray lake 水花湖彼岸,若在夏天需遊泳3000米穿越水花湖,或騎山地車40公裏才能抵達好運山山腳下。所以若想一日徒步登上此山,須要等到冬天水花湖完全結冰後才能直接走雪鞋過湖抵達彼岸。不過,即使是在這樣的嚴冬季節,橫跨水花湖依然有一定的風險,因為湖麵寬度長達3公裏,若是氣溫不夠低,湖麵的冰層不夠厚,走上去就有掉進湖裏的危險。上一次我們就在靠近對岸的湖邊看見沒結冰的湖水,這一次又在湖中心看到沒有凍結實的綠冰,踩上去還有些軟乎乎的,有些嚇人。好在隊長總是把繩子綁在自己身上走在最前麵,讓緊跟其後的幾個大漢拉著繩子。他還叮囑說:如果他掉進湖裏,要等到他的臉朝上時再拉上來!
