200 hours and 7000 KM for Ayers Rock trip

bushwalking

Three of us started four-wheels driving to Ayers Rock (Uluru) on June 20, 2009, along New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and Northern Territory. After near 200 hours and 7000 Km driving, we have finally finished our "dream" trip to Uluru-Kate Tjuta National Park and had a wonderful time along whole road. We would like to share you some photos.

梅里雪山很危险啊，当年的日本人在它上面栽过跟头．天山不清楚，好象爬的人不多．珠峰现在只要有钱（２００万人民币），雇几个夏巴人，基本上去都没有什么太大问题．上次还有个瞎子都上去了．

不过，提个建议哈，你这样训练好象方法不大对耶．国内的登山俱乐部都是要出去实地训练，毕竟在澳大利亚和中国雪山上的气候海拔条件不同的．很多时候不光是体力问题啊，几年前玉珠峰山难，有个人就是健身教练．他平时都是在健身房练习，身体状况很不错，可是上去没有多久就因为高反而最终留在那里了．

如果楼主有计划这么做，应该参加国内的俱乐部什么的，从小雪山爬起啊，比方四姑娘山什么的．

等俺有闲有钱了，俺也去！照片很有感觉，不知是您的技术提高了，还是景色太美，呵呵
发现石头在不同的光线下呈现出不同的颜色，美极了！

I went Alice Spring, Kings Canyan  and Ululu early Jun as well. I think winter is the best season to go to outback. Heard driving at night there is quite dangerous, there are always aboriginal people attacking tourists. Did get to climb to the top of Uluru? that will be quite an achivement.

不过，提个建议 ...

Thanks for your suggestion.
You do not need such money, just buy good instruments (very light) for yourself. No real climber need 雇几个夏巴人. Keeping fit plus another half year training will be possible for Mt Everest.

我觉得楼主的想法很好，不过，小心点儿还是没有错的．我说的钱，是指完全没有基础，基本上雇人把你拉上去那种．你自己爬当然用不了这么多，不过，花钱的地方很多是在前期准备．你说的不雇夏巴尔人，那是非常有经验的登山者，他们还有不带氧气就上去的，问题是世界上也就只有为数不多的几个人可以做到．

我不知道楼主是否有经验，如果你没有雪山经验的话，我感觉你有点轻视雪山了．就算是经验丰富的登山者，每登一座山前都要做很多的准备．

我介绍你看本书＜＜Into the thin air＞＞，讲山难的故事．对雪山你要敬畏它，雪山也是有生命的，它也有一呼一吸．很多人会说要征服雪山，其实雪山是无法被征服的．供楼主参考．

Thank you very much for your advice. Yes you are quite right. Everything has its life. You have to respect him.

愿你早日达成你的心愿，把新足迹的旗帜插到珠峰顶．

Thanks for these beautiful photos.  

Saw you plan on Mt. Everest etc.  You should also consider US.  In my opinion, US is probably the most attractive country for hiking.  In the US, there are many best senaries in the world.  US is also cheap and easy to access.

I am interested.  What is your plan?  I would like it to be 10 days to 2 weeks, otherwise it is not worth the trip.  West coast should be good for one trip.  Possible stops: LA, LV, Grand Canyon, two other national parks, Yosemite, SF.  Both Grand Canyon and Yosemite can have day hikes.

Are you still in Brisbane?

jlhan

Yes.  Not much opportunities for bushwalking.  

Hiking in the US must be in the window of late May to mid Oct.  Otherwise snow closes hiking trails.  

Buying airline ticket to/from US is probably cheapest between Aug. and Oct.
