南湖群峰 / Mt. Nanhu Series

noreply@blogger.com (Shih-hung, Hsu) — Tue, 6 Nov 2012 20:18:00 +0800

南湖群峰，位於宜蘭縣，南投縣和台中市交界，為台灣中央山脈最北端的百岳，在此朝東可遙望太平洋上的龜山島，朝西可見聖稜線，朝北可見七星山。中央山脈在此由南北走向轉為東北－西南走向，且高度從三千公尺不斷下降，最後沒入太平洋之中。也是台灣幾個擁有冰河遺跡的高山之一。
Nanhu Mountain, located between Ilan conutry, Nantou country and Taichung city, is the highest mountain on the northern of cental mountain range in Taiwan. The strike of the mountain range changes from north-south to northeast-southeast with a quick drop in the elevation descending from Nanhu Mountain (more than 3400 m) to Pacific Ocean. You can see evidence of past glaciations in those mountains.

↑南湖東峰。Eastern Peak.
在高緯度和高山地區，降雪終年不化，厚雪經過長年不斷的擠壓最後成為冰川。在冰河時期，台灣曾出現過許多冰川，其中南湖圈谷即是其遺留下的痕跡。由於整個南湖群峰大多屬於黑色板岩，容易風化，在冰川退去後，整個圈谷在多雨的環境下迅速風化成碎石坡地形。
The glacier forms the accumulation of snow. There are serval glacier on the last glacial period in Taiwan. After the last glacial period, the glaciers have vanished, exposing the "U"-shaped glacial valley below.

此路線通常包含審馬陣山3141公尺、南湖大山3742公尺、南湖北山3536公尺、南湖大山東峰3637公尺、馬比杉山3211公尺、南湖大山南峰3449公尺及巴巴山3264公尺，共七座百岳。常見的行程安排多為5天的行程。雲稜山莊和南湖山莊是其中兩個最重要的山屋。
Most plans contain 5 days schedule and included 7 mountains: Nanhu Main Peak　3742M, Nanhu North Mountain　3536M ,Nanhu East Peak　3637M ,Nanhu South Peak　3449M ,Baba Mountain　3264M, Mabishan Mountain　3221M, Shenmajhen Mountain　3141M. There are two major cabins en route: Yuleng Cabin, Nanhu Cabin. Both of those cabins have water nearby.

能高越嶺古道 / Nengao Cross Mountain Historic Trail

noreply@blogger.com (Shih-hung, Hsu) — Mon, 12 Dec 2011 21:39:00 +0800

能高越嶺古道為早期台灣往來東西的一條重要道路，西從霧社沿著塔羅灣溪一路朝東，跨越中央山脈後經銅門沿著木瓜溪抵達花蓮，為台灣早期重要的交通道路。
Nengao Cross Mountain Historic Trail was an important road for east/west journeys across central Taiwan in early times. The trail starts form Wushe, pass the central mountain range, and ends at Tongmen where near Mukumugi.

↑從稜線上東望太平洋。From ridge toward east.

爾後台灣電力公司建立橫跨中央山脈的電力傳輸線路，在舊有古道上興建雲海和檜木兩個保線所。除了這兩個保線所，尚有約在路徑中央的天池山莊提供住宿，以及在中央山脈稜線上的＂光被八表＂紀念碑。
In 1950s, Taiwan Power Company built a power line along this path under the help of the USA. In order to maintain this power line, two line stations also built on the trail. There is also a Tienchi lodge located in the middle of the trail, provide foods and blankets.
↑俯瞰舊天池山莊，2011/10造訪時仍在改建。Old Tienchi lodge, it was under rebuild when I visited it on Oct, 2011.

能高越嶺西段路徑寬大，路跡明顯，除了幾處大型崩塌在大雨之後有高風險之外，其緩慢爬升的特性對於登山新手是較為友善的路線。東段的路徑雖不差，但有一小段地形對新手風險較高，且銅門的道路狀況一直都不太穩定。
The western part of the trail have very little elevation gain and the path is pretty clean. However, the geology conditions cause some location of this trail are easy to collapse in heavy rain. The eastern part of the trail have moderate elevation change and hundred meters of landslide terrain.

↑路況好時的大崩壁，連腳踏車都可通行。In good weather, even bikes are able to ride on the trail.

奇萊南峰和南華山為此一路線上最接近的兩座百岳，雖然一般人聽到奇萊第一個會聯想到的是鼎鼎有名的＂黑色奇萊＂，但奇萊南峰和其主峰以及北峰的奇峰險石風色完全不同，而是令人心曠神怡的高山草原。
There are two peaks rising over 3000 meter near the trail. Mt. Nanhua, with a peak of 3184 m. Mt Chilai South, with a peak of 3358m.

水漾森林 / Forest in Water: Beautiful Decay

noreply@blogger.com (Shih-hung, Hsu) — Sun, 4 Dec 2011 21:39:00 +0800

一九九九年九月二十一日的深夜裡，大地撕裂撼動怒吼，隨之而來的地震波粉碎許多人、事、物，改變台灣的面貌，亦帶出台灣人的善良。水漾森林就誕生在這動盪的黑夜，那夜不但生成許多堰塞湖，瀑布，日月潭到霧峰一帶也沉降2公分到26公分。
In September 21, 1999 a deadly 7.6 Mw earthquake strikes Taiwan killed more than 2000 people. This quake became known as the Chi-Chi earthquake. Quake lakes, waterfalls and massive landslides were everywhere after the night. Area in Central Taiwan such as Sun Moon Lake and Wushe had subsided about 2 to 26 cm from its original elevation. This Beautiful Decay was born in such an environment.

↑水漾森林一偶。A part of the forest.
進入水漾森林通常是從杉林溪或豐山這兩處地方，其中杉林溪的入口位於森林生態渡假園區"仁亭"旁，豐山則由行豐吊橋經千人洞由石鼓盤溪進入水漾。 People usually go the forest via SunLinkSea(There are no sea.) or Fongshan Village. The entry point in SunLinkSea is easier to find than in Fongshan, but you need to buy a ticket.
↑夕陽將水面染成金黃。At sunset.
雖然從杉林溪進入水樣的路徑隨處可見登山布條，但途中的叉路仍可能造成迷路。而從杉林溪到水漾的路又可分為兩條，其一翻過鹿屈山，另一主要沿著舊林道。經由鹿屈山的路徑較明顯，但垂直落差較大，林道部分路徑被芒草堆淹沒，但垂直落差較小。
Follow the marks, they will show you the way to the Forest. But be careful, there are two trails that will lead you to the Forest and the others will bring you into deep mountains. After about 10km you will reach the Forest. The difference between the trail passes the Mt. and the trail mainly follow established tree road is in the change in elevation and easy to recognize. The former path have less change in elevation but are relatively hard to recognize.

加羅湖：散落的珍珠 / Lake Jialuo：Pearls Fall from Sky

noreply@blogger.com (Shih-hung, Hsu) — Sun, 12 Dec 2010 16:49:00 +0800

一次偶然的意外，天上的仙女弄斷珍珠項鍊，將一粒粒潔白的珍珠灑落地面，在山林間點綴交織出幽靜的高山湖泊，這就傳說中加羅湖的由來。
One day an angel broke her pearl necklace in accident and it fall into the mountains. Their pearls blowout when they hit the ground to become the lakes we know today as "Lakes Jialuo"
↑加羅湖。Lake Chia-Lo: one of the largest lakes. 加羅湖位於宜蘭縣，海拔 2242 公尺，和四季林道柵欄處的垂直落差達1000公尺，過加納富溪的巨木登山口後，更是一路抖上，想一觀散落的珍珠也得相當體力。
The lakes are located in Yilan County, Taiwan at elevations of 2242 meters. The nearest entry point is the Sihji forest road with an altitude of about 1000 meters below the lakes. When you pass through the Jianaiu River at the end of the forest road, the angle of the trail turns very steep.

合歡主峰、北峰、東峰和西峰以及石門山和合歡尖是合歡山的主要山峰，在中橫開闢前必須花費數天才能抵達這些區域。在中橫開闢後，抵達這些百岳只需數個小時。然而，在高海拔環境，任何錯誤都可能奪去寶貴的性命，因此仍不可大意。
High peaks in the mount include Mt. Hehuan, Hehuan N. Peak, Hehuan E. Peak, Hehuan E. Peak, Hehuan W. Peak, Mt. Shihmen, Mt. Hehuanjian. Before the Central Cross-Island Highway was built, it took several days to reach those peaks. Thank those who constructed the highway, it just take a couple of hours reaching those peaks. However, it will be fatal if you don't make all things ready.

這就是嘉明湖的誘人之處，不過，如同所有高山，這看似不長的十二公里的路途，卻是危機四伏，讓許多人一去不返！

雖然大部分的人認為嘉明湖是隕石坑遺跡，然而目前的證據指出嘉明湖應該是冰河遺跡。

On good weather, the lake is like a mirror. Blue sky and moving clouds reflected in it. After nightfall, groups of sambar(deer) start to seeking food and water near the lake.

也許是此特殊的條件，造成在雨後數天內，低地在清晨時會的山巒層疊、雲霧飄邈的美景，宛如國畫中的夢幻世界。若又碰上可遇不可求的雲層條件，則日出時將是雲霧飄邈，光芒四射，空中點綴著一片片亮麗的雲彩。只可惜迄今本人還沒碰過如此大景。

The sunrise of Erliao has a unusual scene on the conditions of a few days after the rain stopped. The sunlight pass through the fog and create incredible beams. If there are some beautiful clouds in sky, you will see a fairy world. Unfortunately, I have never seen it.

錐麓古道 (下) / Jhuilu Trail (2/2)

noreply@blogger.com (Shih-hung, Hsu) — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 22:19:00 +0800

休息片刻，享用午餐之後，再度踏上旅程。隨著地勢的變化，逐漸脫離在樹林中上上下下的鬱悶。

抬頭一看，驚見大峭壁。看來離此次的目標越來越近了。

13:00 PM 到達錐鹿斷崖。不過其實由西往東走時，斷崖的界線沒有很明顯。

等一下就是沿著那條小徑繼續往前走。

往西看立霧溪，可以看到細細的中橫。

走到一半往回看，有沒有很恐怖呀？

站在高處看著名的太魯閣峽谷，這才是世界級景觀！

13:40 PM 離開錐鹿斷崖。

最後的一撇。還要找機會再去一次，這次身體太久沒動，腦筋只想著走路，都忘記要構圖。

14:00 PM 抵達巴達岡二號橋。

巴達岡二號橋。

14:40 PM 抵達巴達岡，毫無遮蔽，決定不看遺跡。

巴達岡門口的兩個石柱。再次塗抹當事人。

接下來一路都是之字型的下坡，應該有數十個，充滿著完全不人性化的樓梯。

有去過太魯閣的橋，應該對它印象深刻。

15:30 PM 抵達燕子口。

果真太久沒動了，剛開始竟然走到肚子痛，搞的拍照都沒辦法思考，沒有幾張照片可用，看來只好和嘉明湖一同列入＂報復＂清單，擇期再來！

錐麓古道 (上) / Jhuilu Trail (1/2)

noreply@blogger.com (Shih-hung, Hsu) — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 00:32:00 +0800

錐麓古道位於太魯閣國家公園，屬於合歡越嶺古道的最東段。在日據時期，太魯閣的賽德克族和日本人多次發生衝突，為了討伐賽德克族，日本人開始修建合歡越嶺古道，將原有古道進一步整修拓寬，以便運送重武器以及物資，這即是合歡越嶺古道的前身。

如今，經過歲月的摧殘以及橫貫公路的開通，合歡越嶺古道所剩已經無幾。

錐麓古道的東側入口位於中橫上的燕子口，西側則結束於立霧溪和荖西溪的交會口，全長 10.3 公里，途中經過巴達岡，錐麓斷崖，錐麓駐在所。

位於燕子口的入口，如果看到這個就腳軟的話，勸您三思而後行。

08:00 AM 自荖西溪起登。

一離開溪床就開始陡昇，沿途上上下下。早餐吃泡麵，連續拉了兩次。

08:40 AM 到達台電舊隧道。

沿途都是在樹林裡穿梭，時上時下，但路跡非常明顯，造成忘記開 GPS 紀錄路跡。

09:30 AM 開始有展望，天氣很好。

朝西瞭望，下方可見立霧溪以及中橫公路。

有點登高山的味道，如果背景全都改成高山植物。

11:30 AM 到達錐麓駐在所，僅有一個平台，沒有半點遺跡。

只有一塊空地的錐麓駐在所。照片裡面的殘影不是鬼，沒跟他們講要公開照片，所以保護一下。

裝甲 564 旅開放 / 564th Armoured Brigade

noreply@blogger.com (Shih-hung, Hsu) — Sat, 26 Apr 2008 04:03:00 +0800

第一次去裝甲旅的基地，管制上比陸航和空軍嚴謹許多。
It is my first time going to visit an Armoured Brigade.

除了常見的靜態展示，裝甲車輛的狂奔和反戰車飛彈的試射也出現在此。
The cross-section of combat vehicle and equipment are on static display to include M109A2, CM-23, TOW, T91... You can also see a M113 moving fast and a ATGM missile launch from M113.

不過這次的展示也透露出陸軍裝備的老舊：M113 已經是老舊的設計，更別提作為主力的 CM11。
Poor equipment. Old M113 and CM11 need to upgrade or replace.

非常寒酸的野戰防空能力，我覺得台灣的環境比較適合發展蘇聯式的野戰防空。核生化作戰能力極低。
Poor AA capability. All unit have a limited capability under NBC conditions.

不過，我覺得開放基地，甚至開放試乘裝甲車，都值得嘉獎。
However, it is a good thing to have activities like this.

Fireworks in Orthodox Lu-Erh-Men Sheng Mu Miao on the Lantern Festival / 鹿耳門聖母廟煙火

noreply@blogger.com (Shih-hung, Hsu) — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 21:41:00 +0800

感覺好像在拍某大明星一樣，在 DSLR 普及化前，不知是否就是如此？　
It looks like someone important is coming. Did it happen before the DSLR become popular?

出乎意料之外的煙火！竟然從橋上發射。
Opps! The first shoot is in front of the temple.

真的遊戲開始了！
The show begin.

這是我最喜歡的一張。雖然煙火被切，但是我覺得畫面很協調。
This is my favorite one.

煙火發射的位置一直變來變去，很多畫面就此流逝。
There are two sides. Sometimes come from right, sometimes left and sometimes both.

台南夜景:海安路 Nightspot in Tainan, Taiwan. Part III.

noreply@blogger.com (Shih-hung, Hsu) — Tue, 1 Jan 2008 20:45:00 +0800

海安路，一條曾經繁榮一時的古街，如今逐漸凋零。
Hai-An Street, an old street. It once was the most prosperous street in Tainan. The legend say it was protected by a dragon. (The dragon is a holy animal in Chinese culture.)

在改建地下街的過程中，它喪失他的魅力。
The process of building an underground street withered the Hai-An.

市政府希望藉由美化，帶回神龍。
Now, the city government try to bring the dragon back.

海安路在哪？
The word means "Where is it?".

美化的一部分，帶來不同的氣息。
A part of beautification. The most part of beautification is between Mincyuon Rd. and Fucian Rd. .

牆，在訴說它的過去。
The old wall tell us a old story.

和它交會的老街。

台南夜景:四草大橋 Nightspot in Tainan, Taiwan. Part II.

四草大橋，位在安北路最西端。亦是一個賞日落的好地點。
The bridge is located on the west of Anbei Rd., Anping District.
It is also a good place to enjoy the sunset.

沒帶角架，星芒大概也拍不出來，所以試試一些有趣的方式。
Those two photos was taken when I didn't bring a tripod. For this reason, I try something else.
