"Chasing the Angel's Tears: The Magnificence and Touch of Jiaming Lake"
Jiaming Lake, known as the "Angel's Tears", is 3,310 meters above sea level and is one of the 100 most dreamy peaks in the minds of climbers. The process of climbing Jiaming Lake is full of challenges. Starting from the trailhead, the first day's journey made me fully feel the majesty of the mountains. The uphill route requires full concentration, especially on the way to the Three Forks Campground. The slippery dirt and gravel roads are a big test of physical strength and leg strength. However, the gradually rising view and the oncoming mountain breeze became the best encouragement. Although every step is difficult, my yearning for Jiaming Lake keeps me moving forward.
The next morning, we set out from the mountain hut and, under the starry sky, embarked on the final journey to the summit. Crossing the alpine grasslands and ridges, you will see large tracts of arrow bamboo forests under your feet and the unique tranquility and breeze of the mountains in your ears. When the dawn broke, Jiaming Lake appeared before our eyes, and at that moment all the fatigue was replaced by joy. Jiaming Lake is like a sapphire, quietly inlaid in the mountains. The lake water is clear and transparent, and it is surrounded by continuous mountains. The scenery is breathtakingly magnificent.
Standing by the Jiaming Lake, the calmness of the lake seems to reflect the peace in one’s heart. This lake located on the top of the mountain seems to be telling people the purity of life and the beauty of nature. At that moment, I deeply realized that climbing the 100 peaks is not only a journey
The process of conquering the mountains is a journey of knowing yourself and challenging your limits, while your body, mind and soul are also cleansed by nature.
The magnificence and mystery of Jiaming Lake are unforgettable, and this journey will remain in my memory forever. For those who love mountaineering or seek spiritual peace, Jiaming Lake is definitely a dream place worth challenging. Every hard step is exchanged for a lifetime of beautiful memories, which is also the greatest charm of mountain climbing.
Reminder: The climate in the mountains is changeable, so you must make a good warm-keeping plan. Do not go up the mountain in bad weather.
