According to Mr. Ma's account, Jiang Ye and his partner entered the mountains from Fukang on the 1st. Afterwards, their partner experienced altitude sickness and withdrew early from the No. 4 sheepfold around the 4th and 5th. The team leader of Mr. Ma's club met Jiang Ye before his disappearance at Tiger Mouth on the 7th. "At that time, he was already a person, and my team leader advised him to leave together, but he did not answer."
Mr. Ma introduced to the reporter that after walking the Bogda Peak Ring Road, it takes as fast as 6 days and as slow as 7 days. Most outdoor enthusiasts who have experienced accidents in the local area act alone. "Our team always carries satellite phones when going up the mountain, which can maintain external communication. After entering the mountain, they do not have these devices. If someone is injured and there is no one around, it is difficult to contact rescue."
