ʻO Gorakshep: ʻO ka hoʻomaha hope loa ma mua o Everest Base Camp - He alakaʻi holoʻokoʻa no nā Trekkers

ʻO Gorakshep: Ke Kū Hope Loa Ma mua o ke Kahua Hoʻomoana ʻo EverestHe kauhale liʻiliʻi ʻo Gorakshep ma ke kiʻekiʻe ma ka ʻāina ʻo Everest ma Nepal , a ʻo ia nō ke kū hope loa ma mua o ke Kahua Hoʻomoana ʻo Everest (EBC). Aia ma 5,164 mika (16,942 kapuaʻi), he wahi noho makani ʻo Gorakshep ma kahi pāpū hau pālahalaha i hoʻopuni ʻia e nā kuahiwi nunui ʻo Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, a me Pumori . Ua ʻōlelo pinepine ʻia kona inoa ʻo ia hoʻi "nā manu koraka make," ʻoiai ʻaʻole maopopo ke kumu pololei o ka inoa, he kunou i ka ʻāina ʻōlohelohe a hau.

ʻOiai ʻaʻole i noho ʻia a puni ka makahiki, hoʻopiha ʻo Gorakshep i nā mea hele wāwae a me nā alakaʻi i ka pūnāwai a me ka hāʻule. Ma ke ʻano o ka pō hope loa ma ke ala EBC maʻamau, ʻo ia kahi kahua hoʻomaʻamaʻa koʻikoʻi a me kahi wahi lele no ka piʻi ʻana i Everest Base Camp a me Kala Patthar.
Kahi a me ka palapala honua

Aia ʻo Gorakshep ma ka puʻuwai o Sagarmatha (Everest) National Park ma ke awāwa ʻo Khumbu o Nepal. ʻO kona wahi ma kahi moena loko hau hau, he one a he pōhaku ka honua - aneane like me ka wao nahele kiʻekiʻe. Hoʻokumu ʻia ke kauhale e nā kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe: Ma kahi lā mālamalama, hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike iā Lhotse, Nuptse, Pumori, a me Lingtren, ʻoiai ʻo Everest ponoʻī i hūnā ʻia mai Gorakshep a ʻike ʻia i ka wā e piʻi ai i Kala Patthar.

He lahilahi ka ea ma 5,164 m, a maloʻo ka mahana, no laila ʻo nā kumu lāʻau puʻuwai a me ka moss wale nō ke ola ma ʻaneʻi. I ke kauwela, hiki ke ikaika ka lā, akā maloʻo nā pō; i ka hooilo, uhi ka hau i ke kauhale. ʻO ke kūlana kiʻekiʻe loa o Gorakshep - ma kahi pāpū aniani kahiko ma lalo o nā mauna kiʻekiʻe loa o ka honua - he mea weliweli ia e like me ka mamao.

E hele ana i Gorakshep

ʻAʻole hiki ke hiki iā Gorakshep ma ke alanui a i ʻole nā ​​​​kaʻa - pono ʻoe e hele wāwae. Hoʻomaka ke ala maʻamau me ka lele ʻana i Lukla (2,860 m) mai Kathmandu. Mai Lukla, hahai ʻoe i ke ala maʻamau ʻo Everest Base Camp no kahi o hoʻokahi pule. ʻO nā wahi ala maʻamau ʻo Namche Bazaar (3,440 m), Tengboche (3,860 m), Dingboche (4,350 m), a laila ʻo Lobuche (4,940 m).

Hiki maʻamau ka poʻe Trekkers i Gorakshep ma kahi o ka lā 7 a i ʻole 8 o ka hele wāwae. ʻO ka wāwae hope loa, ʻo Lobuche a i Gorakshep, ma kahi o 4-5 km o ke ala pali, e piʻi ana ma kahi o 200 mika i ke kiʻekiʻe. He piʻi pōhaku a kiʻekiʻe, no laila pono ʻoe e lawe mālie a hoʻomaha e like me ka mea e pono ai. Ke hōʻea ʻoe i Gorakshep, e loaʻa iā ʻoe ka manaʻo o ka hoʻokō - ua like kēia kiʻekiʻe e like me ka nui o ka poʻe huakaʻi e hiamoe ana ma ka huakaʻi EBC.

Hana ma ka Everest Base Camp Trek

ʻAʻole hiki ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia ke kuleana o Gorakshep i ka huakaʻi Everest. ʻO ia ke kauhale pō hope loa ma ke ala e hiki ai i Everest Base Camp – kahi e hoʻomaha ai, ʻai, a hiamoe ka poʻe hele ma mua o ka pana hope.

I ka mōʻaukala, ua lawelawe ʻo Gorakshep ma ke ʻano he Everest Base Camp mua no nā huakaʻi mua i nā makahiki 1950 (ma mua o ka neʻe ʻana o nā hui i kahi hoʻomoana kokoke i ka Khumbu Icefall). I kēia lā, ma hope o Gorakshep, hoʻomau ke ala a hiki i Everest Base Camp (5,364 m) a i ʻole i kahi mākaʻikaʻi kaulana ʻo Kala Patthar (5,545 m).

He mea koʻikoʻi ka noho ʻana ma Gorakshep no ka acclimatization. I kēia kiʻekiʻe, pono ke kino i ka manawa e hoʻoponopono ai i nā pae oxygen haʻahaʻa loa. Hoʻonohonoho ka hapa nui o nā huakaʻi huakaʻi i hoʻokahi pō ma Gorakshep i hiki i ka poʻe hele wāwae ke hoʻomaha a ola hou.

Hāʻawi nā hale kīʻaha i kahi manawa koʻikoʻi e lohi ma mua o ka hoʻokō ʻana i nā huakaʻi kiʻekiʻe. Ma kēia ʻano, ʻo Gorakshep kahi "launching pad" no nā ʻanuʻu hope o ka huakaʻi - inā ʻo ia ke kipa ʻana iā Everest Base Camp ponoʻī a i ʻole ke piʻi ʻana i luna e ʻike i ka hikina o ka lā mai Kala Patthar.

Nā mea e hana ai ma Gorakshep

ʻOiai kona liʻiliʻi, hāʻawi ʻo Gorakshep i kekahi mau huakaʻi hele wāwae e pono ai ke hana. ʻO ka mea maopopo loa, ʻo ia ka huakaʻi pōkole i Everest Base Camp ponoʻī. Mai ke kauhale aku, he 3.5 km kēlā me kēia ala (ma kahi o 7 km ka huakaʻi a hoʻi mai), e lawe ana ma kahi o 3-4 mau hola ka huakaʻi a hoʻi mai ma ke ala pōhaku e hoʻopuni ana i ka Khumbu Glacier.

ʻO kēia huakaʻi hele wāwae i ke ao e uku iā ʻoe me nā halelewa kahua kaulana i hōʻuluʻulu ʻia ma 5,364 m, a hāʻawi i nā hiʻohiʻona kokoke o ka Khumbu Icefall a me nā piko kokoke e like me Nuptse lāua ʻo Pumori. Hana ka hapa nui o ka poʻe hele wāwae i kēia ma ke ʻano he huakaʻi i ka lā hoʻokahi mai Gorakshep a laila hoʻi e hiamoe ma Gorakshep i kēlā pō. (ʻAʻohe mea e hoʻomoana ma Base Camp ma ka huakaʻi - pono ʻoe e hoʻi mai.)

ʻO ka mea koʻikoʻi ʻē aʻe ʻo Kala Patthar, kahi kuahiwi e piʻi ana ma luna o Gorakshep. E hoʻomaka ana mai ke kauhale, ʻo Kala Patthar ma kahi o 3.5 km a me 1.5-2 mau hola o ka hele wāwae. Hana mau ia ma mua o ka wanaʻao a hiki i ka piko no ka puka ʻana o ka lā.

Mai kahi kiʻekiʻe o Kala Patthar he 5,545 mika, loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi panorama kaulana loa: ʻo ka piko o ka mauna ʻo Everest i mua ou, i hoʻopuni ʻia e nā kualono nui o Lhotse, Nuptse, a me Ama Dablam . Manaʻo ka poʻe hele wāwae he nui i kēia hiʻohiʻona o ka puka ʻana o ka lā ʻo ia ka mea nui o ka huakaʻi holoʻokoʻa.

Ma waho aʻe o kēia mau huakaʻi nui, ʻoluʻolu ka ʻimi wale ʻana i ke kauhale. Hiki iā ʻoe ke hele a puni ka pāpū one a piʻi i nā puʻu liʻiliʻi e ʻike i nā kihi like ʻole o nā piko a puni. Holo nā hae pule i ka makani, a he mea haʻahaʻa ke kū ʻana ma ka papahele “wao akua” ma lalo o nā pilikua 8,000 mika.

Ma nā hale kī, hiki iā ʻoe ke noho ma kahi kapuahi, e ʻoliʻoli i ka sopa wela, a nānā i nā hiʻohiʻona panoramic o Pumori, Lingtren, a me ka hau hau - nā ʻāpana āpau o ka ʻike Gorakshep.

Noho a me nā hale kīʻaha

ʻO ka noho ma Gorakshep he mea maʻamau. He ʻuʻuku wale nō o nā hale kī a me nā loina e hana nei ma ʻaneʻi, a hāʻawi lākou i nā lumi maʻalahi loa. ʻO ka maʻamau, ʻelua mau moena hoʻokahi me nā moena lahilahi a me kahi pākaukau liʻiliʻi.

ʻO nā paia a me nā papahele he plywood a i ʻole kekona; ʻaʻohe mea hoʻomehana i loko o nā lumi moe. E ʻoi aku ka mahana o ka mahana o loko ma mua o waho, no laila makemake ʻoe e hiamoe me kahi ʻeke moe kaumaha (a komo pū i nā papa ma kahi moe).

ʻO ka lumi ʻaina hui pū ka puʻuwai o kēlā me kēia hale hoʻokipa; he kapuahi wahie a i ʻole ka yak-dungi ahi ma waenakonu e hoʻomaʻamaʻa i ka ea. ʻĀkoakoa ka poʻe hele i ke ahiahi e ʻai, inu i ka chai, a me ka pumehana.

Hāʻawi kekahi mau hale kīʻaha i nā ua wela (bakeke wai) a me ka uila no ka hoʻouka ʻana i nā mea hana, akā ua kaupalena ʻia kēia mau mea - pinepine wale nō ʻelua mau hola o ka mana i kēlā me kēia lā, a ma ke kumu kūʻai keu. Manaʻo e uku i ka uku no ka ua wela (i kekahi manawa $5-10 a ʻoi aʻe paha). ʻO ka hoʻomālamalama ʻana o nā lumi i ka lā a i ʻole nā ​​​​generator-powered, no laila hiki ke pohihihi a ʻulaʻula paha.

I ka pōkole, mai manaʻo i kahi hōʻoluʻolu ma Gorakshep. ʻAʻohe Wi-Fi, ʻaʻohe lawelawe holoi lole, a ʻaʻohe waiwai. He rustic nā mea a pau. Akā ua maikaʻi - ʻo ka hapa nui o ka poʻe huakaʻi e hoʻololi koke i ka lewa e like me ke ahi ahi, a ʻo ke aloha o ka poʻe nona ka hale hoʻokipa e hoʻonui ai i nā lumi Spartan.

E lawe mai i kāu pēke mana ponoʻī a me nā pani pepeiao (he lahilahi nā paia a he walaʻau ka wahi ʻai), a e ʻoluʻolu ʻoe. E hoʻomanaʻo: ʻo kahi ʻeke moe maikaʻi a me nā ʻāpana lole kou pale maikaʻi loa i nā pō anuanu.

Mea ʻai a wai

ʻO nā koho meaʻai ma Gorakshep e hoʻohālike i nā mea āu e ʻike ai ma nā hale kīʻaha Himalayan kiʻekiʻe - nā meaʻai maʻalahi, puʻuwai, ʻai momona. E manaʻo i nā kīʻaha e like me dal bhat (lentil a me ka laiki), nā mea kanu a me nā noodles ʻiʻo, ka laiki palai, nā omelets, a me nā sopa.

Hana ʻia nā mea a pau ma ka pūnaewele i nā keʻena kīhini kumu. No ka lawe ʻia ʻana o nā meaʻai a pau (e nā yaks, nā hoki, a me nā mea lawe puka), ʻoi aku ka kiʻekiʻe o nā kumukūʻai ma mua o nā kauhale haʻahaʻa. No ka laʻana, ʻo kahi pā dal bhat e kūʻai ana i $3-4 ma Namche he $6-8 paha ma Gorakshep. ʻO ka ʻaina kakahiaka maʻamau (oatmeal a i ʻole hua manu), a ʻo ka ʻaina ahiahi he ʻano stew a curry paha.

He mea nui e mālama i kāu mau calorie ma ʻaneʻi. Hoʻopau ke anuanu i ka ikehu hou, no laila ʻo ka ʻai mau ʻana (ʻo nā ʻai liʻiliʻi ma waena o nā ʻai) kōkua iā ʻoe e noho mahana a ikaika. Hiki ke loaʻa nā mea inu wela e like me ke kī, kofe, a i ʻole ke kokoleka wela - a he mea kūpono ia i ke anuanu. Loaʻa paha i kekahi mau hale hoʻokipa nā noodles a i ʻole popcorn i mea ʻai.

Kakaikahi ka wai ma Gorakshep. ʻAʻohe wai kahe i loko o nā lumi. Hāʻawi nā Lodges i ka wai i hoʻolapalapa ʻia a i mālama ʻia paha mai nā kumu kūloko, a pono ʻoe e hoʻomaʻemaʻe a hoʻolapalapa paha i kāu wai inu, akā pono e hoʻolapalapa ʻia a mālama mua ʻia.

Kūʻai ʻia ka ʻōmole wai, akā he pipiʻi loa ia (pinepine $3-5 no ka lita). ʻO ke ala ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ka lawe ʻana i kahi ʻōmole hiki ke hoʻohana hou ʻia a me nā papa hoʻomaʻemaʻe wai a i ʻole kahi kānana. Hoʻolālā ka poʻe huakaʻi he nui e inu i nā mea inu "electrolyte" a i ʻole "ikena" no ka wai hou a me ka paʻakai. E hoʻomanaʻo e hiki koke mai ka wai maloʻo ma ke kiʻekiʻe, no laila inu pinepine.

ʻO ka hope, ʻo ke kālā ke aliʻi ma Gorakshep. ʻAʻohe ATM ma aneʻi. (ʻOiaʻiʻo, ma hope o Namche Bazaar, ʻaʻole ʻoe e ʻike hou i nā ATM ma ka huakaʻi holoʻokoʻa.) E hōʻoia ʻoe e hoʻihoʻi i nā rupees Nepali ma Lukla a i ʻole Namche ma mua o ka piʻi ʻana. Pono ʻoe i ke kālā no ka noho ʻana, ka meaʻai, ka wai wela, ka ua, a me nā lako ʻē aʻe - kūʻai ʻia i nā rupees.

ʻO ke kiʻekiʻe, ke aniau, a me nā kau

Ma 5,164 m, ʻo Gorakshep kahi kiʻekiʻe loa - ʻo ia kekahi o nā wahi kiʻekiʻe loa e moe ai ka poʻe hele wāwae. ʻO ka nui o ka oxygen ma ʻaneʻi ma kahi o ka hapalua o ko lākou mea ma ka ʻilikai, no laila ke manaʻo nei nā mea a pau i ka hopena o ke kiʻekiʻe. E like me kāu e manaʻo ai, ʻoi loa ke ea.

Hiki i nā lā (inā lā) ke mahana ma kahi mau degere ma luna o ka hau (0–5°C), akā e emi loa nā pō ma lalo o 0°C. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻoiai i nā kau maikaʻi loa (ka pūnāwai a me ka hāʻule), hāʻule pinepine nā pō ma kahi o -10°C a i ʻole ke anuanu. I ka hoʻoilo (Dec–Feb) hiki ke hāʻule ka mahana i -20°C a i ʻole ma lalo i ka pō.

Hiki ke loli ka lewa ma Gorakshep. Hiki i kekahi kakahiaka ke akaka a mālie, a i ka lā aʻe, hiki i ka hau hau ke pa mai me ka ʻike ʻole. He mea maʻamau ka makani kiʻekiʻe, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma ke ahiahi a me ke ahiahi, e ʻoi aku ka anuanu. No ka maloʻo ʻana o ka ea, e nalowale koke ʻoe i ka makū (e maloʻo paha kou ʻāʻī a me kou ʻili), no laila e hoʻopili i nā kuʻi kuʻi a me kahi moisturizer. Pono ʻoe e lawe i nā lole pale makani i nā manawa a pau.

ʻO nā manawa maikaʻi loa e kipa aku ai iā Gorakshep (a hele i ke ala EBC) ʻo ka punawai (Malaki–Mei) a me ka hāʻule (Sepatemaba–Nowemapa). I loko o kēia mau puka makani, maʻa mau ka lani a paʻa ka lewa, e hāʻawi ana i ka ʻike nani o nā mauna.

I ka pūnāwai, e ʻike nō hoʻi ʻoe i nā rhododendrons e pua ana ma nā ululāʻau haʻahaʻa. Loaʻa i ka hopena o ʻApelila a me ka hoʻomaka o Mei ka leo kūikawā o ke kau piʻi ʻana iā Everest ma Base Camp. I ka hāʻule (ʻoi aku hoʻi ʻo ʻOkakopa a me Nowemapa), loaʻa nō hoʻi iā ʻoe nā lā maloʻo a ʻoluʻolu hoʻi a me nā pō anuanu - manaʻo ka poʻe he nui ʻo ʻOkakopa ka mahina kūpono no ka hele wāwae ʻana iā Everest.

ʻO ka ʻokoʻa, lawe mai ke au i ke kauwela (Iune–ʻAukake) i nā ao kaumaha, ka ua, a me ka hau hoʻi i nā ala kiʻekiʻe, e hana pinepine ai i ka lepo a me ka uhi ʻana i nā ʻike. ʻO ka hoʻoilo (Dec–Feb) ke anu loa a me ka hau; nui nā hale kī ma ke awāwa ʻo Khumbu e kokoke ana, a ʻaʻole pinepine nā huakaʻi i Lukla. No laila, inā ʻaʻole ʻoe he mauna akamai, ʻo ka pili ʻana i ka pūnāwai a hāʻule paha e hoʻonui nui i kou palekana a hauʻoli.

ʻO nā pilikia hele wāwae a me ka maʻi kiʻekiʻe

Hōʻike ʻo Gorakshep a me ke ala a puni ia i nā pilikia koʻikoʻi, ʻoiai no ka poʻe huakaʻi hele. ʻO ke kiʻekiʻe ka mea maopopo. Ma 5,164 m, lahilahi ka ea, no laila paʻakikī ka hanu a paʻakikī ka hana kino.

E ʻike ka hapa nui o nā kānaka i kekahi mau hōʻailona maʻalahi o ka maʻi kiʻekiʻe, ma ʻaneʻi ka maʻi poʻo, nausea, pau ka ʻai, luhi, a i ʻole pōkole o ka hanu. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻo ka maʻi kiʻekiʻe (AMS) ka pilikia olakino nui loa ma ka huakaʻi EBC.

No ka hōʻemi ʻana i ka AMS, e piʻi mālie a hoʻomaʻamaʻa pono. He mea koʻikoʻi ka inu ʻana i ka wai nui a ʻai i nā meaʻai momona momona e kōkua i kou kino e hoʻoponopono. Nui ka poʻe huakaʻi e hoʻomaha i ka lā hoʻomaha ma Dingboche a i ʻole Lobuche ma mua o ka neʻe ʻana i Gorakshep, a hoʻomaha kekahi poʻe i ka pō hoʻomaha ma Gorakshep ponoʻī.

E ʻae i kou kino e hoʻololi – e hele mālie a paʻa a mai wikiwiki. Inā hoʻomaka ʻoe e ʻike i nā hōʻailona koʻikoʻi (ka huikau, ka ʻaʻa ʻana o ka wai huʻi, nāwaliwali loa), e iho koke a ʻimi i ke kōkua olakino. Hiki ke loaʻa ka oxygen pilikia ma kekahi mau hale hoʻokipa a i ʻole ma o ka helikopter inā pono, akā ke iho nei ka ala palekana loa.

Ma waho aʻe o ke kiʻekiʻe, he paʻakikī nui ke anuanu a me ka makani. ʻOiai i ka hopena o ke kau, pono ʻoe e manaʻo i nā pō hau. Hiki i nā makani ikaika ke hoʻonui i ka wela. ʻO ka lole kūpono (e nānā i lalo) he mea pono. Eia kekahi, hiki ke 'ano 'o'ole'a ke ala kino pono'ī: nā pōhaku ku'eku'e, nā pā hau ('oi loa i ka ho'ohehe'e 'ana o ka hau), a me nā moraine 'ole pono e pono ke kāma'a maika'i a me ka hele wāwae 'ana.

Ua kaupalena ʻia nā kumuwaiwai. He liʻiliʻi ka uila ʻo Gorakshep (pinepine he mau hola wale nō i ka pō) a ʻaʻohe hale lapaʻau maoli. E lawe i kahi pahu kōkua mua maʻamau, nā lāʻau lapaʻau pilikino, a me nā mea hoʻopihapiha āu e manaʻo ai he pono paha ʻoe.

Eia nō naʻe, ua nui nā hoʻāʻo e lanakila i kēia mau pilikia; ʻOiai ke alo nei i nā pilikia he nui, hiki i nā kaukani huakaʻi hele i Gorakshep me ka ʻole o nā pilikia i kēlā me kēia makahiki ma o ka hoʻomākaukau pono ʻana a me ka mālama ʻana i ke kaiapuni mauna. ʻAʻole mālama ʻia kēia mau pilikia, a me ka hoʻolohe pono ʻana i kou kino, e hōʻea ʻoe i Gorakshep a hauʻoli ʻoe ma laila.

He aha nā mea e hoʻopaʻa ai no ka Gorakshep Trek

He mea nui ka hoʻopili ʻana i ke akamai no nā kūlana koʻikoʻi ma Gorakshep. Eia nā mea koʻikoʻi loa:
