Four thousand nine hundred meters away, there is only one restaurant, gathering brave men from all directions. They are busy seizing favorable terrain in the sunroom, and those who know each other but don’t know each other gather together. Everyone talks and laughs, as if they are celebrating the festival.

The staple food is potatoes. I woke up at 4 a.m. the next day, and set off at 5 a.m. Before dawn, I must use a headlight. It is expected that I can reach Tuolong Pass in four hours.

It is necessary to ensure that you pass before 12 o'clock, otherwise the probability of extreme weather in the afternoon will increase greatly. No grass grows along the way, no vegetation can be seen, and it is weathered gravel roads.

Surrounded by snow-capped mountains, it is now more than 5,000 meters. Johnson has some difficulty breathing and is not in the mood to go to the beautiful scenery again. He grits his teeth and perseveres...

Finally arrived at the destination, which is one of the largest passes in the world, with a wide view and full of flying prayer flags. When everyone arrived at the pass, many hikers had gathered here.

Everyone threw their bags and hugged each other to celebrate, and then rushed to take a group photo in front of the stone tablet marked at the altitude of Miyakou.

From 3000 meters to 5416 meters, Thorang-la Pass, from forest to meadow, from pass to snow-capped mountains, this is a journey beyond oneself!

Tianba pointed at a distance and said seriously: "These are watersheds. If you go down, you must start climbing the snow-capped mountains with tools. It is Robuche Peak, just a few kilometers away from Mount Everest. It is often included in a technical training and very good adaptive mountain."

Staring at Johnson, he asked seriously: "Do you want to try it or not?"

Johnson stood up and looked at the vast snow-capped mountains not far away. The two brothers came over and Xia Long suggested: "Boss, five thousand meters are almost the same, why don't we..."

Johnson took a deep breath, looked at the yak's various equipment, and insisted: "Now, there is no use of oxygen cylinders. Let's try walking forward for a while!"

Tianba smiled and nodded, "Since that's the case, let's try it. At worst, come back."

Tianba is very relaxed. Now it has been seen that this time, it will definitely not challenge the limit. The rich people are not here to fight for their lives, just feel it.

There is already a glacier under your feet, so you must change into professional equipment. When you come to the snow slope with difficulty, Tianba pointed to the rope above and said, "All the top routes of high-altitude snow-capped mountains will encounter snow slopes or cliffs that cannot be directly walked up or down."

"For a very small number of independent climbers, they will pass through this place with fast unprotected or short rope knots. But for the commercial climbing team, we will lay the ropes in advance, and then you will climb upwards. Let's try it. If it doesn't work, you can only give up."

Johnson nodded. It was no longer a matter of showing off his power and pretending to be good. It was related to life and must be cautious.

Everyone changed into a full set of equipment, put on sharp crampons on the mountain boots, Tianba first, Tiger Card second, and began to climb up. Fix the rope every five meters to a small hill.

Xia Long takes the lead, Xia Hu Palace, and Johnson is in the middle. The key is the ascending device, which uses the power of the arm to climb. It can slide freely above the snow slope, but lock in one direction below the snow slope.

Hold it tightly with your right hand, you can pull it down and climb with force, and you will not lose contact with the rope directly when you slip. The main lock is connected to the ascender to provide a secondary protection to prevent the rope from falling off the ascender.

The left hand is fixed with an ice axe, and the legs are climbing up with difficulty. The oxtail on the waist is connected to the ascendant and the auxiliary guard to ensure safety.

Finally I understand what it means: it is simpler to say but difficult to do!

When I first learned, I was not proficient in the key points and hiked all day long. Johnson was very tired, he was as heavy as lead, and he was inhaling oxygen with a large mouthful of movement. He was slow to move and began to have altitude sickness.

Gripping his teeth, he finally climbed up the hillside and fell directly on the snow, not wanting to move. Everyone quickly helped, and finally recovered.

He waved his hand and said helplessly: "It's really not possible, go down the mountain!"

After crossing the pass, there will be endless downhill roads, and the road surface is full of gravel, which can easily slip.

Tianba asked everyone to bring knee pads, and it dropped continuously within four hours. 1,600 meters. The pressure on the knees and calves is very high. Use a cane to relay it to reduce the impact.

"That is Doragiri Peak, 8126 meters, the seventh peak!"

Seeing Johnson's expression of regret, Tianba comforted him: "It has been less than 70 years since humans first climbed to the peak of 8,000 meters. No famous mountaineer not only has an unparalleled personal physical fitness, but also his mental power is first-class!"

"For ordinary people, 7,000 meters is already the physiological limit of human beings. At this height, the oxygen content of air is only 1/3 of that of plains. The lungs can no longer transport oxygen through blood to various tissues of the human body. Even helicopters cannot fly that height. About 4% of people in the world can adapt to this height."

"The strong wind is another evil demon. The wind speed is above 29 meters/sec, which means the strong wind of level 12, but the wind speed of 8,000 meters is often far more than this speed. For example, the average annual wind speed of Zhuo Aoyou Peak reaches 60 meters/sec!"

"There are also the temperature loss, snow blindness, accidental slips and other factors caused by high altitude and severe cold, all of which are fatal dangers. Events like avalanches are even more unbearable disasters..."

"So climbing Mount Everest is not a feat that can be accomplished on a whim, but a huge, long and boring project. It often takes several months in advance to arrive at the base camp at the foot of Mount Everest at an altitude of 5,367 meters, and gradually adapt to the accelerated breathing in high-altitude areas, changes in pH value, and surge in red blood cells."

"Every day, adaptive climbs between camps are also required. Due to the changing climate of Mount Everest, the harsh living conditions, diarrhea, vomiting, and dizziness, these symptoms are common. For those with less experience, the use of crampons, ice axes, ladders, and safety ropes also requires time to learn."

"Only those who have experienced the pain of moaning can experience it. When extreme challenges are ultimately challenged, even a bottle of water or a biscuit is in the right pocket, it will interfere with their own progress."

"In 1998, Francis, a 40-year-old female mountaineer in the United States, fell down the mountain due to hypoxia and collapsed 244 meters below Mount Everest. Don't leave me, it's her last sentence she left to the world!"

"As a result, the body is still in place and is frozen in the snow-capped mountains forever. For every challenger, you can only get up by yourself, because no one has the ability to help you!"

Seeing everyone staring at him, Johnson couldn't help but laugh and said, "Do you want to be so serious?"
