His obsession with outdoor hiking and adventure largely stems from a desire for nature's gifts. August Explosion—I see it as the Hagen-Dazs of the mountains.

August Zha is called Three-leaf Mutong in botanical studies and belongs to the family Rycophagaceae as a deciduous woody vine. The berries are long oval and slightly curved; The skin is dark green with varying degrees of rust spots; when fully ripe, it turns brown, with flesh that cracks along the belly slit, white and juicy. Seeds numerous, flattened-elliptic, reddish-brown. [Source:Baidu Encyclopedia】

This was in the autumn of 2011. Four friends climbed to the summit of Laoyajian (the highest point in southeastern Hubei, elevation 1656.7 meters). Passing by Jinji Valley, we accidentally discovered nature's gift (outdoor hiking, the future is always uncertain, and challenges bring surprises).

The flesh is slightly sweet, with a pasty texture, belonging to the light Häagen-Dazs category. Disadvantages: many and large pits, too little flesh, and insufficient moisture. Among the wild usable fruits I've tried, this one is excellent, but compared to the fruits on the market, it feels rather useless.

The group kept imagining along the way: how to cultivate artificially, how to breed, how to improve to make the seeds smaller and fewer...

Every autumn, I go to Jinji Valley to look for August Fried Meat. What really attracts me is a wild fruit called September Yellow, which belongs to the Akewort family and tastes even better. For ten years, we have never seen the spectacular harvest of September and August explosions again.

Are you planning to meet up this fall?
