Umnqobi Wemiklomelo Yokukhetha Abahambi ka-2024/25/26
I-Everest Base Camp Trek uhambo lwenganekwane oludonsa abagibeli abavela emhlabeni wonke. Ibonisa indawo ebabazekayo, isiko elicebile le-Sherpa, kanye nesipiliyoni esingenakucimeka eduze kwezintaba ze-Himalaya. Umzila unikeza indawo ekhangayo futhi udlula izimpawu zomhlaba zomlando ezikhuphukayo.
I-Kala Patthar (amamitha angu-5,545) ingumbono odume kakhulu we- Isifunda sase-Everest. Inikeza ithuba lokubukwa okungenakuqhathaniswa kanye nobuso obuseningizimu ye-Everest, izinguzunga zayo zeqhwa, neziqongo ezingomakhelwane. Lesi isiqongo esiphawula ukuzizwisa okungcono kakhulu kwabahamba ngezinyawo e-Himalayas.
Kunzima, nokho kuyanelisa, ukuhamba ngezinyawo ukuya eKala Patthar. Ukukhuphuka kunikeza ukuphuma kwelanga okumangalisayo kanye nezindawo eziseduze zentaba ephakeme i-Everest, nanoma yimuphi umhambi oza kule ntaba esiqongweni sentaba abanjwe nemibono edonsa umoya ye-Everest emoyeni wayo owugqinsi wezintaba.
Njengomuntu ohamba ngezinyawo, wonke umuntu uzibona emile eKala Patthar ukuze abone ubuhle be-Everest. Ukufinyelela e-Kala Patthar kuzwakala njengomvuzo omkhulu wohambo. Iyindawo efiseleka kakhulu yohambo lwe-Everest Base Camp, enama-panorama ayo amangalisayo aletha ukwesaba.
I-Kala Patthar, esuselwa ku-Nepali ne-Hindi, kokubili okusho ukuthi i-Black Rock, injalo ngenxa yamadwala ayo amnyama. Igama libonisa izici zemvelo ezimazombezombe ngoba lizungezwe izintaba ze-Himalaya ezimbozwe yiqhwa, futhi lokhu kungabonakala njengengxenye yobungqayizivele begama.
I-Kala Patthar ilele ngenhla nje kwe-Gorak Shep, eduze ne-Everest Base Camp. Ibekwe ngendlela efanele ukunikeza abahamba ngezinyawo ngemibono emihle ohlangothini oluseningizimu ye-Everest nezinye izintaba ezibalulekile ezitholakala esifundeni saseKhumbu, ngaleyo ndlela ibe yindawo okufanele uyivakashele.
I-Kala Patthar inokuphakama kwamamitha angu-5,545. I-Topography inamatshe futhi ingumqansa, okudinga umqansa oqinile. Ngokomlando, i-Kala Patthar yaduma kubahambi nabathwebuli bezithombe, kodwa izithombe zokuqala zobuso obuseningizimu ye-Everest zathathwa kude le (isb, isifunda sasePumori).
U-Kala Patthar wayengumbono owaziwa kakhulu wokuthatha izithombe ku-Everest ngenxa yezithombe zayo ezingaphazanyiswa, eziseduze. I-Everest iyindawo ethandwayo phakathi kwabahambi abahamba ngezinyawo nabathwebuli bezithombe abangochwepheshe ngenxa yokubukwa okumangalisayo nokumangalisayo kwentaba uma ubhekene nesibhakabhaka.
Indawo kuphela lapho umuntu engathola khona umbono oseduze wobuso obuphakeme obusentshonalanga naseningizimu-ntshonalanga yeMount Everest yiKala Patthar. Lona umbono ongajwayelekile lapho abahambi bengakwazi ukubuka ubukhulu kanye nenkazimulo yentaba ngaphandle kwezithiyo ezibonakalayo noma iziphazamiso.
Umbono uhlinzeka ngombono obanzi we-Everest nezinye izintaba ezingomakhelwane njengeLhotse, Nuptse, Pumori, kanye neKhumbutse. Lokhu kubuka kwe-panoramic kwethula uhla olukhulu lwe-Himalayan futhi kujabulisa abaqwali bezintaba ngezintaba ezimbalwa zenganekwane phakathi kwesithombe esisodwa.
Ukushona kwelanga nokuphuma kwelanga eKala Patthar akukhumbuleki. Ukukhanya okuphuzi, okumboze i-Everest nezintaba ezizungezile, kwenza indawo ibukeke njengomlingo. Le miphumela yokukhanya iveza imidwebo yentaba futhi iyamangaza ngezigcawu zezithombe ezifanele.
I-Kala Patthar inenani eliqinile elingokomzwelo nelingokomoya kubahambi abahamba ngezinyawo. Ukufezwa kwalo mbono kuyisithombe sokunqotshwa kobunzima bomzimba kanye nokufezwa kwephupho lokuphila. Yindawo enokuthula eyenza umuntu acabange, azizwe ebonga, futhi abe nomuzwa oqinile wokuxhumana nezintaba ze-Himalaya nobukhulu bemvelo.
Umzila ojwayelekile we-Everest we-trekking uqala ngo Lukla, bese edlula eNamche Bazaar, eTengboche, eDingboche naseLobuche, bese egcina eGorak Shep. Indawo yokugcina ngaphambi kwesisekelo se-Everest kanye nokukhuphuka kweKala Patthar yiGorak Shep.
Ukukhuphuka kokugcina phakathi kwe-Gorak Shep ne-Kala Patthar ngokuvamile kudla amahora angu-1.5-2. Kuwumzila onamatshe onamadwala okushintsha emuva agcina egingqika ngamadwala aze afike esiqongweni esinamafulege omthandazo, enikeza imibono emihle.
Le ntaba ihlinzeka ngobunzima bomzimba ngokwemiqansa, ubulukhuni bentaba, nokuphakama okuphezulu. I-Kala Patthar iphakeme ngamamitha angu-5,545, okwenza umkhathi wayo omncane ukwazi ukubangela izimpawu zomthelela wokuphakama; ngakho-ke, ukujwayela okuhle, ukuqina, nokuhamba ngobuhlakani ukuya phezulu kuyadingeka.
Ama-Trekkers ajwayele ukuya e-Kala Patthar ekuseni noma ntambama ukuze azwe ukuphuma noma ukushona kwelanga. Lezi zikhathi zilungele kakhulu ukubona ukukhanya kwegolide ezintabeni zase-Everest ukwengeza kulwazi olumangalisayo lwe-panoramic.
Ukukhuphuka kwe-Kala Patthar kunomqansa, omfushane ezindleleni ezinamatshe nezinothuli. Umzila ubuye ube nama-switchbacks, ama-scree slopes adinga unyawo olufanele, ikakhulukazi phakathi nezimo eziphansi zokukhanya, futhi ngaleyo ndlela izinto zokusebenza ezifanele zibaluleke kakhulu njengoba zigcina abantu bephephile.
Ukwanda kokuphakama kulokhu kukhuphuka kuhamba kancane kodwa kuzinzile, futhi ukucindezela komoya omncane kunciphisa isivinini. Ukuze banqobe ukugcwala komoya-mpilo omncane futhi banqobe izinguquko ezihambisana nesifo sokuphakama kwendawo, abahamba ngezinyawo kufanele bahambe kancane kancane, baphumule, futhi bazinikeze amanzi ngendlela efanele.
Isimo sezulu saseKala Patthar siyabanda, somile, futhi imimoya enamandla ibonakala ngisho nasezinkathini zokuhamba ngezinyawo. Ekuseni kakhulu noma ntambama, kuyadingeka ukusebenzisa izendlalelo zezingubo ezifudumele futhi uvikele ekugodoleni komoya ukuze ukhululeke.
Ukubuka okumangalisayo kwe-Mount Everest kuhlaka olugcwele, lapho zonke izinkathazo seziphelile. Lokhu okuhlangenwe nakho okuthinta imizwa kunikeza abahambahambayo ukunamathela okuqinile entabeni okungenza ukuzizwisa okuyinselele kokuqwala izintaba kugcwaliseke ngendlela emangalisayo futhi kukhumbuleke.
Isimo ekuphumeni kwelanga eKala Patthar siwumlingo kakhulu, futhi imisebe yelanga yenza isiqongo se-Everest sibe yigolide. Kubanda futhi kudinga ukuhamba ngaphambi kokuntwela kokusa cishe ngo-3:30-4:00 AM (kuye ngezinkathi zonyaka), kodwa umoya oyikristalu ne-alpenglow ebabazekayo kuyenza ikhumbuleke kubahambi.
Ukushona kwelanga akuminyene kakhulu futhi kunemibala efudumele eyenza kube yinto ejabulisayo. Ukukhanya okusabalalisiwe kudala izithunzi zangaphandle ku-Khumbu Glacier, ezilungele ukuthwebula izithombe.
Ngokuthwebula izithombe, i-tripod kufanele isetshenziselwe ukuzuza izithombe eziqinile ezimweni zokukhanya okuphansi. Ekuseni ekuseni, i-Everest iyigolide futhi abaqwali banezibani zabo, futhi ebusuku, ama-silhouette akhanyiswa esibhakabhakeni ngemibala ehlukahlukene. Kubalulekile ukugqoka futhi wenze amalungiselelo okushintsha ukukhanya.
Ukuphakama kweKala Patthar kungamamitha angu-5,545, okudinga ukuvunyelaniswa okuphelele ukuze kugwenywe ukugula kokuphakama. Izinsuku zokuphumula zizosetshenziswa e-Namche nase-Dingboche, okuvumela umzimba wakho ukujwayela ukuphakama okuphezulu ngendlela ehamba kancane, kuncishiswe izici zobungozi.
Kubalulekile ukuthi ube namanzi amaningi, wondlekile, futhi uhambisane nesivinini. Ama-Trekkers kufanele azijwayeze umyalo othi Climb high, alale phansi okusiza inqubo yokujwayela ukuthi iphephe kakhudlwana futhi kwehlise ukuvela kwezimpawu ze-Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS).
Kubalulekile ukuqaphela izimpawu ze-AMS, njengekhanda elibuhlungu, isicanucanu, isiyezi, nokuphelelwa umoya. Ngokushesha nje lapho izimpawu ziba zimbi kakhulu, kuyadingeka ukuthi kube nokwehla ngokushesha, ukuphumula, ukugeleza kwamanzi, nomoya-mpilo. Izinyathelo zokuqapha ezinjengokujwayela okwanele zingasiza ekuqinisekiseni ukuthi ukusinda nokuphepha okujwayelekile kuyaqinisekiswa lapho kuthathwa uhambo oluya endaweni ephakeme.
Ukugijima okunensayo, okuqinile, okugcina amazinga e-hydration ephezulu, nokudla okunothe ngamakholori futhi kugayeke kalula ngezinye zezinto ezithuthukisa ukukhuthazela. Abahamba ngezinyawo kufanele banake imizimba yabo, bathathe ikhefu kaningi, futhi akufanele basheshe ukuze babe nolwazi oluphephile nolujabulisayo e-Kala Patthar.
Isimo sezulu esibandayo eKala Patthar sidinga isethi yezingubo ezifudumele. Ijakhethi yaphansi, amagilavu, kanye ne-beanie kungasetshenziswa ukuvikela emakhazeni nomoya onamandla, ikakhulukazi ekuseni noma ntambama lapho umuntu eqwala.
Izigxobo ze-Trekking zizosekela ibhalansi ezindleleni ezinamatshe, kanti izicathulo zekhwalithi enhle zizosekela iqakala nokubamba. Umuntu uzodinga isibani esihle lapho esebenza nokukhanya okuphansi. Lezi izinto ezibalulekile ezithuthukisa ukuphepha nokunethezeka lapho ukhuphuka.
Ibhodlela lamanzi, ukudla okulula, kanye nemithi yakho kuvimbela ukwehla kwamandla kanye ne-hydration. Abathwebuli bezithombe bayamenywa ukuba beze nekhamera noma i-drone, ukuze bakwazi ukuthatha izigcawu ezimangalisayo ze-panoramic ngaphandle kokwephula imithetho yendawo kanye nemvelo.
Indawo yokugcina yetiye ngaphambi kweKala Patthar yiGorak Shep, enezindawo zokuhlala ezilula. Lezi zihlanganisa izindawo zokulala ezincane, izindlu zezivakashi ezinamagumbi okugeza ahlanganyelwayo, ukushisisa okulinganiselwe, nemibhede elula. Phakathi nezinkathi eziphakeme zokuhamba, amakamelo ngokuvamile agcwele.
Ukudla ngokuvamile kulula kodwa kunomsoco, njenge-dal bhat, ama-noodle, kanye namasobho. Ukuphakama nendawo ekude kwenza izinga lokunethezeka libe phansi. Izinsiza eziwubukhazikhazi njengamanzi ashisayo ne-Wi-Fi zinikezwa ngemali eyengeziwe kodwa zingase zibe nomkhawulo.
Umuntu kufanele ahlale enamabhange kagesi, njengoba ugesi usekelwe elanga futhi unomkhawulo. Kubalulekile futhi ukuhlala unamanzi ngoba isimo sezulu somile futhi siphezulu. Abahamba ngezinyawo bayelulekwa ukuthi baphathe izikhwama zokulala ezifudumele ngoba bangase bazidinge ebusuku, njengoba kuvame ukubanda.
I-Kala Patthar ihlinzeka ngendawo efanelekile yesithombe yokuthwebula i-Everest, i-Nuptse, ne-Ama Dablam kusukela kuma-engeli angcono kakhulu. I-Kala Patthar ibheke iziqongo ezintathu ukuze ivumele ukubukwa kwe-panoramic okungaphazanyiswa okuveza amagquma nobuso bazo zonke iziqongo ezintathu eziyisithonjana kuzo zonke izimo zokukhanya.
Amahora egolide asekuseni nakusihlwa ahlinzeka ngokukhanya komlingo okudala izithombe eziyingqayizivele. Ilensi yekhamera ene-engeli ebanzi ingathwebula ubukhulu kanye nencithakalo yazo zonke izindawo zezintaba. Izindiza ze-drone ngaphezu kwe-Gorak Shep noma i-Kala Patthar zikhawulelwe iziphathimandla ze-Sagarmatha National Park.
Kuvamile ukuthola isibhakabhaka esicwebile phezu kwe-Kala Patthar ngezikhathi zasekuseni, ngokugqama, ukubonakala okucacile kwendawo ezungezile. Kusihlwa, indawo ezungezile emnyama ehlanganiswe nokungcoliswa kokukhanya okuncane ivumela ukubukwa okuhle komthala i-Milky Way phezu kwe-Everest, indawo eyintandokazi yabathandi bemvelo nabathwebuli bezinkanyezi.
Okufanelekile, intwasahlobo (Mashi kuya kuMeyi) kanye nekwindla (ngoSepthemba kuya kuNovemba) izinkathi zonyaka ezivumayo kakhulu zokuvakashela eKala Patthar lapho isimo sezulu sibikezelwa kakhulu ngesibhakabhaka esicacile nemvula encane, yingakho sinikeza umbono ongcono kakhulu nolwazi oluhle kakhulu lokuhamba ngezinyawo.
Intwasahlobo igcwele izindlela ezinemibala, i-rhododendron ekhulayo, nesimo sezulu esihle ongangena kuso. Ikwindla futhi iyisizini ekahle yokuthatha izithombe nokuhambela imicimbi yangaphandle ngenxa yokusa kwayo okucwathile, ukukhanya kwelanga okuhle, kanye nezintaba ezinhle.
Kutuswa kakhulu ukugwema izinyanga zasebusika (December-February) lapho kubanda kakhulu futhi imizila ingase imbozwe yiqhwa futhi ibe neqhwa. Ngokufanayo, phakathi nenkathi yezimvula ezinkulu (June-August), lina kakhulu, liguqubele, futhi libonakala liphansi, elingafanele ukuhamba ngezinyawo nokuthatha izithombe.
Amanani angokomzwelo e-Everest Base Camp ahlanganisa ukusondelana nomkhathi wohambo lokuphakama okuphezulu kanye nokujwayelana nabaqwali. Noma kunjalo, leli phuzu lisengaphansi kwentaba i-Everest, njengoba limbozwe ezinye izintaba namaqhwa.
Itholakala endaweni ephakeme kakhulu kune-Base Camp, i-Kala Patthar izonikeza umbono we-panoramic we-Everest nezinye iziqongo eziseduze njenge-Nuptse ne-Ama Dablam endaweni ezungezile ngaphandle kokuphazamiseka. Lo mbono uveza bonke ubukhazikhazi bengqungquthela ye-Everest ngemininingwane ecacile necacile.
Kuhlanganiswe, lezi zindawo ezimbili ziphelelisa okwenziwa yi-Everest: I-Base Camp izosiza ukucwilisa umuntu ohamba ngezinyawo kusiko nezinqubo zawo wonke umuzwa wokuqwala izintaba, futhi i-Kala Patthar izohlinzeka ngombono ohlaba umxhwele noyisithonjana. Ukubona kokubili kuthuthukisa ukuthokozela ubukhulu bentaba kanye nempumelelo yokuhamba ngezinyawo.
I-Kala Patthar iyindawo yokubuka ephakeme kakhulu efinyelelekayo ohambweni olujwayelekile lwe-EBC, enikeza umbono ophelele wengqungquthela kanye neziqhwaga zase-Himalaya ezizungeze ingqungquthela. Ukuphakama kwayo okuphezulu kubonisa inkazimulo egcwele ye-Everest, engatholakali ndawo.
Ukukhuphuka kwe-Kala Patthar kuyisenzakalo esishintsha impilo mayelana nokufeza kanye nobunye nemvelo yemvelo. Ukuqwala intaba ukuya kulo mbono wenganekwane kuzonikeza abahloli indawo ekhangayo kanye nolwazi olukhumbulekayo ngentaba ephakeme kunazo zonke emhlabeni.
"Awukwazi ukuma ku-Everest, kodwa usuka eKala Patthar, uyayibona ngempela." Lokhu kufingqa konke okuhlangenwe nakho, uhambo olumangalisayo oluphela ekubukeni okumangalisayo kwe-Everest ebabazekayo nezimangaliso ze-Himalaya.
Sihlela uhambo lwamaholide olungokwezifiso noluguquguqukayo ngokwesikhathi seholide lakho, izifiso ezengeziwe, kanye nezidingo zakho.
