Yiwu (43.250N, 94.695E) is somewhat west of the centre line, but offers a comfortable environment in which to view the eclipse. The penalty is small — a loss of three seconds in the duration of totality.

Weizixia (43.458N 94.839E)

Eclipse-Day Strategies in the Hami Area

Hami — if weather follows its most common pattern — is likely to greet eclipse day with clear skies, and remain clear for the day. The slopes of the Karlik, easily visible from the city, may have a quite different cloudiness, ranging from a nearly overcast sky, to a sky that is as clear as that at Hami. Here are a few ideas to consider:

1. If the weather on the Karlik Tagh is clear or has only scattered cumulus clouds by noon, go up to the grassland. It's a big area, and the whole thing is within the Moon's shadow. If the mountains develop a broken cloud cover by mid afternoon, and the cloud is not too deep (i.e. there is no rain falling), then it will probably disappear by eclipse time. Keep an eye on the east slopes of the Karliks above Yiwu, as cloud may continue to build there through the afternoon, until a little after first contact. If it looks more threatening than you care to tolerate, retreat northwestward along the highway, back toward the pass that brought you onto the grassland. The mountains to the north (toward the sand dunes and the salt lake) are much lower than those near Yiwu, and will have less cloud to drift onto the eclipse track. You will lose some time, but probably no more than about 20 seconds. Watch the motion of clouds blowing toward the centre line from the mountain slopes: do they dissipate quickly on leaving the slopes or drift leisurely eastward without much change? Keep an eye on the drift of these clouds and the winds aloft — that will help you to judge the prospects of alternative sites.

2. If the mountain peaks seen from Hami are embedded in cloud, (but Hami itself is clear) then there is little alternative but to send someone to go and look at conditions on the other side of the Karliks before making a decision about going to the Yiwu area or somewhere else. It is a three-hour trip to Yiwu, but a scouting expedition need only go as far as the grasslands (about an hour) and report back on conditions on the plateau. Cell phone and Blackberry coverage is excellent (as it was everywhere in China and Russia), and there should be no problem passing word back to those lower down. If the view to the south looks ominous (I'd advise going as far as the sand dunes, where the road turns toward Yiwu), then check out the situation in the other direction, toward Barkol. While Barkol is much farther from the centre line than Yiwu, there are roads in the area that head east toward the middle of the eclipse track, though they may not be in such good condition as those to the south.

If the conditions on the plateau do not look promising, then the "last resort" eclipse site is at the foot of the Karlik Tagh, just as the highway enters the gorge that goes up to the plateau. The eclipse duration here is a little over 1 minute. If your expedition leaves early for the plateau (before 11 am?), it should have time to reach the top, check out the cloud cover, and return to the desert floor if the situation looks desperate. Be careful about being too pessimistic — the downslope winds and the eclipse cooling will be powerful forces in dissipating any convective clouds.

3. If everything is clouded over — Hami, the Karliks, and all around — then bite the bullet and go up onto the plateau. The incoming weather system has to rise up over the mountain peaks and descend onto Barkol Grassland and the descent may open holes in the cloud cover that make a view of the eclipse possible. Make sure that clearing skies aren't coming in from the west before you do: that's what satellite pictures are for, though this part of the world is very poorly provided with decent imagery. You don't want to head for the grassland and then find out that it cleared at Hami just in time for the eclipse. In this situation, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Kaardid

Transport

Bejing metroo maksab 2Y, tsoneerimata. Liin nr. 5 on valminud. Loodetavasti liin 10 ja lennujaama liin kah. Nende avamine peaks olema juulikuus 2008. Alates juunist 2008 kasutatakse jaamades automaatseid piletimüügiautomaate, mis aktsepteerivad ühejüaaniseid münte ja 5 või 10-jüaaniseid paberrahasid. Magnetribaga piletid kehtivad ainult sama päeva jooksul ning ainult selles jaamas, kust nad osteti. Lisaks tuleb need jaamast väljumiseni alles hoida, muidu ei saa väravatest läbi. Väljumisel korjab väravaautomaat pileti ära.

Teistel andmetel: Bus fares cost 2 Renminbi for Air Conditioned Buses under 10km, and another 2 RMB per 10km. Non-air conditioned buses are 1 RMB per 10km. Subway tickets cost 3 Renminbi for the 1, 2, 13, and 8T lines; 5 RMB for tickets allowing a transfer to Line 13, and 4 RMB for tickets allowing a transfer to Line 8T.

Chinese-run Jinxuecheng Binguan, walk west along the road from Chinibagh for about 5+ mins. 70 RMB for twin with ensuite and aircon.

Lake Karakul. The yurts at the north(kashgar) end of the lake are not touristy at all. Very friendly Kyrgyz people. 25-50Y per night incl evening meal and breakfast. Külastusmaks (lisaks) 50 rmb.

I recommend walking clockwise around the lake and climbing up the wide gentle valley in the SE corner, just before the flood plain. When you hit the pass follow the ridge to the right - fantastic views. Easy walk, not dangerous. A more adventurous friend turned left at the pass to climb the higher mountain - looked a lot harder. But I've seen her photos and there's a cairn on top, so she was obviousy not the first. Cut across the flood plain taking your shoes off to cross the 4 or 5 streams. Saves a boring 5km detour via road. You could share the transportation with other travellers in Seman Hotel or in Silk Road Supermarket. Where you could get some needed info about borders and Tibet.
