Guangdong Thousand-Mile Peaks 2: White Cloud Peak in Huizhou, I've climbed it three times!
Time: 2014 April
Location: Huizhou Huiyang District
Altitude: 1003 meters
Route: New Wharf Market, Huizhou District – Pangcu Palace – Return to the right slope beside the White Cloud Peak Archway – Ancient Village Ruins – White Cloud Peak Summit – Original Route Descent
From Pangcu Palace, take the right slope up, and it takes about 75 minutes to reach the summit. The original route has no difficulty and no intensity.
The two peaks in the picture are Dongguan Yinfeng Mountain on the left and White Cloud Peak on the right
White Cloud Peak is located in the southwest of Huizhou City, belongs to Huizhou New Xu Town. Altitude 1003.5 meters, it is the highest point of Huizhou District. There is Pangcu Palace in the south of the mountain, which is one of the scenic spots in Huizhou District
White Cloud Peak is the only thousand-kilometer peak in Guangdong that I have climbed three times. The first time was in 2007, New Year's Day. At that time, I didn't have a mobile phone, so I didn't leave a picture
White Cloud Peak Protection Zone Gate, you can directly climb the slope on the right to ascend White Cloud Peak
The second climb of White Cloud Peak was in 2010, twin climb of White Cloud Peak and Silver Bottle
Pangcu Palace
The third climb was in 2014, all three climbs of White Cloud Peak were done alone
From Huizhou New Xu Market, about 4 kilometers on foot to Pangcu Palace
The Palace taken on the right slope of Pangcu Palace
2014 I used a Lenovo A820, the price is like 770 yuan, 8 million pixels, now it seems the picture quality is still good
Are these houses the ancient village ruins?
9:39 am started hiking from New Wharf Market, arrived at the Ancient Village Ruins at 11:14 am
This road has a stream on the right
Because White Cloud Peak is the closest thousand-kilometer peak to Dongguan, Shenzhen and Huizhou, there are many tourists, the footstep signs from Pangcu Palace are very obvious
Saw the summit
From this angle, you can see Silver Bottle Mountain, altitude 898 meters, Dongguan's first peak
In April, you can see azaleas
White camellias and azaleas, red and white combination is really beautiful!
Almost at the summit
The steep slope before the summit, the entire distance is a little tired
This is the summit at 1003 meters, from Pangcu Palace's right slope to the summit takes about 60 minutes, remember that in 2007 the summit still had a tower
1955 marked trig point
This is the picture I took in 2010, the phone is Tianyu C500, 500 thousand pixels
Across the road is Yinfeng Mountain, in 2010 the twin climb of White Cloud Peak and Silver Bottle, that time I felt too sore in my knees and it hurt for several days
White Cloud Peak summit scenery
There are no trees on the summit
They are all some short bamboo clumps, in the autumn and winter seasons, they may be a golden grassland
It seems that this is the Shigei Water Reservoir in Dongguan Shegang
Sometimes when we feel tired and frustrated, we can go to nature to walk and release our bad emotions. In my opinion, this is a free natural therapy
Nature nurtured humans, but humans in the real world are foolishly plundering nature. This is ridiculous, sad and hateful
When humans become selfish and greedy and destroy the earth's environment to a certain extent, earthquakes, typhoons and floods, and worldwide outbreaks of diseases, in my understanding, they may be a self-regulation and self-cleansing behavior of nature
So we humans should reflect on our lifestyles, consumption behaviors, and scientific development directions…
We must strictly abide by the survival rules that harmonize with nature, which is the best choice
White Cloud Peak is east of the summit
Below is Huizhou New Xu Town
Full of red azaleas all over the mountain
I have climbed White Cloud Peak three times, it's estimated that it's difficult to climb a fourth time because I want to spend my climbing time and energy on other unclimed thousand-kilometer peaks in Guangdong!
