---------------------------------------------------------------------
你徐徐穿越枝繁葉茂森林間的電光形陡坡,踏上峽谷上方五百公尺的歷史刻痕。
不知道腳下土壤吸納了多少汗水,淌過多少血淚;你只輕輕倚著新架的鐵欄杆,
凝望溪谷與遠山的深邃,讚嘆這條千仞絕壁上的天空步道。
---
在慈母橋跳下往洛韶的花客小巴,不見任何指引牌,憑著直覺走上涼亭,古道
入口果然位於讓人不知所措的警告牌背後。灰白石塊紛呈的荖西溪還睡在錐麓
山龐大身影裡,步道從溪床邊緣安靜繞過,有時爬鐵梯越巨石,有時鑽過斜躺
的岩塊身後。你站在突出河床的白石上,不禁懾服於堆疊磊塊的大自然力量,
卻又忍不住猜想在下一次洪水抹除路徑後,哪顆頑石能堅守陣地。
突如其來的之字陡上減慢了你的速度,但琳瑯滿目的植物與落葉讓你仍氣定神
閒,隨著山徑迴轉拐彎,不知不覺爬升至立霧溪峽谷上方,這時你才憑崖駐足。
腳下閃電形的立霧溪劈開山塊,從遠方的北二段急衝而來,眼前每道稜線都緊
迫地墜落溪谷。
急陡的山壁被繁茂的植物緊緊攀附,重重綠幕間,金花石蒜亭亭玉立,一派優
雅地展示波浪華服。彎龍骨伸長了身子凌空輕曳,把你攔下來靜觀它蝶形花冠
中,旗瓣、翼瓣與龍骨瓣的細緻。如果金花石蒜和彎龍骨是光鮮亮麗的公主,
布烈氏黃芩就是具有謎樣魔力的精靈。藍紫色的唇形花像是腕龍,又像是海豚,
你一次又一次蹲下試圖捕捉它的可愛,把短短的腰繞一公里路走到天荒地老。
古道多處穿越林間,炎夏日光無法滲透,只留下頭上那片晶瑩剔透的葉綠。
不見記錄中常提的山羊排遺,卻聽到不遠山坡上野豬的騷動與嚎叫。
偶爾的高繞或下切,在管理處的整修抹飾下,舊路在何處崩毀而戛然停止,你渾然不覺。
路旁的駁坎是新或舊,在岩頂與緩坡遍生的姑婆芋是否如同前人所見,你一無所知。
哪些事物已經永遠消逝,哪些被保留了下來,哪些和昔日略同,你決定不再苦思,
只把步伐交付給鋪上鬆軟落葉的泥土山徑,悠遊這條漫長的時光隧道。
行至錐麓駐在所,只剩荒地,然而立霧溪對岸高聳的指狀峰卻成了深刻的印記。
此去的路途交替著棧橋、峭壁、樹林、崩谷,你仰望直削而下的斷崖,俯瞰傍
溪貼崖而行的中橫公路,雙眼所及與腳下所踩的道路都是人定勝天的代表,但
你很清楚這些驕傲是由多少血淚所交織堆疊而成。
