台灣之旅(六)登山後遺症
台灣之旅﹐產生了一個後遺症﹐喚醒蜇伏心底幾年的某個心願︰再到尼泊爾去﹐攀登6189米的島峰(Island Peak﹐又稱Imja Tse )。
2003年在珠峰區﹐登上5545米的Kala Pattar後﹐遇見過幾個攀山者(我們是登山客﹐用兩腳走路﹐攀山者則需使用繩索﹐四肢並用)﹐都不約而同推介Island Peak﹐說適合想淺嘗攀雪山的人士。聽後躍躍欲試﹐回港後曾參加了一個攀石初班課程﹐後來因為沒有雪地經驗﹐連冰爪也不知為何物﹐而朋友中也沒人感興趣﹐漸漸把這心願擱下﹐並幾乎遺忘了。
沒想到台灣友人竟提起有興趣攀Island Peak﹐以為遙不可及的夢重現曙光﹐忍不住翻出地圖細讀。
我並非甚麼運動健將﹐外表予人瘦弱感覺﹐只是週末時會走走香港的小山丘。6189米的島峰﹐我能攀上去嗎?我說不準﹐卻很想一試 — 可能與不可能﹐分別可能在於將之付諸行動。
也許今年﹐也許明年﹐可以成行吧。
(在Youtube 找來的攀Island Peak 的片段﹐背景音樂很好聽﹐記得先關掉本頁右上角的播放器。)

Starting from Lukla, you may need more than one month to finish climbing the Island Peak. I will be very proud of your significant achievement if you can manage to reach the peak.
