Uma ungumthandi wemvelo, awukwazi ukuphuthelwa yimizila ezokuvumela ukuthi uthole i-granite massif eyaziwa njenge "Cerro Blanco" nePeñón de Covadonga.
Uchungechunge oluyingqayizivele lwezikhathi ezihambisanayo lwaholela ekutholakaleni kabusha kwe-granite massif eyaziwa ngokuthi "uCerro Blanco".
Cishe amahora amabili nohhafu ukusuka eTorreón, ulibangise edolobheni laseDurango futhi eduze nedolobha lasePeñón Blanco, kunomsila wegranite abantu bendawo abawubiza nge- “Cerro Blanco”. U-El Peñón, njengoba mina nozakwethu besilibiza kanjalo selokhu kwazalwa isithakazelo sethu kulo, wabuye wabuya etholwa ngenxa yochungechunge olumangazayo lwezenzakalo ezenzekayo. Kodwa-ke, sacishe sadunyazwa yimizamo emibili engaphumelelanga yokusondela emathambekeni egquma, njengoba uhlaza olunameva oluningi lwenza indlela ingabi nokwenzeka.
Othile wancoma u-Octavio Puentes, ongowokuzalwa eNuevo Covadonga, idolobha eliseduze nentaba, owazi le ndawo ngendlela emangazayo. Ngaphansi kokuqondisa kwakhe kuphela lapho singathola khona indlela yokuthi ngemuva kwehora lingasithatha ngaphandle kwezinkinga siye ekamu elisePiedra Partida.
Indlela u-Octavio asikhombise yona iwela umfula izikhathi eziningana bese ikhuphuka ize ifike egqumeni elihlukanisa iDwala nodonga okuthi, ngenxa yokuphakama kwalo ngamamitha angama-50, sibhaphathize “njengodonga olwamukelekile”.
Kusuka kuleli thangala, elibizwa nge-El Banco, ukwakheka kwezwe kushintsha kakhulu, ngoba amatshe osayizi abehlukene angabonakala, azungezwe futhi abunjwe ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, isenzo samanzi nomoya. Lawa madwala ake aba engxenyeni engenhla yegquma, futhi okuthile kwashintsha okwabenza bazihlukanisa futhi bagingqika baze babe kuleyo ndawo. Okuthusa kakhulu ngalokhu ukuthi ushintsho, yize luhamba kancane, alukapheli, futhi besingafuni ukuthi kube yibona abasusa idwala elilodwa.
Siyaqhubeka nokugudla ithafa size sifike ePiedra Partida, indlela icishe ibe caba futhi inendlela kwesinye isikhathi efihlwa otshanini. IPiedra Partida inikela ngendawo engcono yokukhemela egqumeni, ngoba ngenxa yokuma kwayo inomthunzi onomphela owenza ukuthi ube yisiphephelo esihle kakhulu emisebeni yelanga engapheli namazinga okushisa aphezulu, ehlobo adlula ama-40 degrees Celsius. Isiza futhi sinombono we-panoramic omuhle okuvumela ukuthi ukhethe indlela ozoyilandela noma, lapho kufanele khona, ukubona inqubekela phambili yabagibeli abagibela olunye lwezindonga zamatshe. Okunye okuhlukile ukuthi ngaleso sikhathi kukhona ama-petroglyphs, okuthi ngenxa yokungafinyeleleki kwesayithi kusagcinwa kusesimweni esihle kakhulu.
Imikhankaso emibili yangaphambilini yeqembu le-cemac nePolytechnic, nezethenjwa ekhasini le-Intanethi, zisibonise imizila esunguliwe; Kodwa-ke, sithathe isinqumo sokwenza umzila omusha ngokusebenzisa umgwaqo, othi, ngemuva kobude obuyizintambo obuyishumi, ofinyelela kwesinye sezingqungquthela zaseCerro Blanco. Ubude bezintambo bulingana namamitha angama-50, kepha kulo mzila, ngenxa yokuma kwetshe nendlela esiyilandelayo, zahluka kusuka kumamitha angama-30 kuye kwangama-50.
Ubude bokuqala bezintambo babulula kakhulu, cishe u-5.6-5.8 (ulula impela), ngaphandle kokuhamba okungu-5.10a (phakathi kokuphakathi naphakathi nobunzima) ekuqaleni kobude besibili. Lokhu kusinikeze ukuzethemba kokucabanga ukuthi wonke umzila ubuzoba lula futhi usheshe: kube lula, ngoba sikholwa ukuthi wonke umzila uzokwethula ibanga elifana naleli esesivele silidlulile; futhi kuyashesha, ngoba ukufaka ukuvikelwa bekungeke kudingeke amasayithi obuchwepheshe ayinkimbinkimbi athatha isikhathi eside ukufaka. Ukufaka ukuvikela ngokushesha okukhulu, besinombhobho webhethri esingawenza ngawo izimbobo cishe ezingamashumi amathathu ngebhethri ngalinye kulawa ebesinawo.
Sibe nokwesaba okuhle ekamelweni elide; ngokunyakaza okungu-5.10b ngashelela ngawela emamitheni ayisithupha, ngaze ngavikelwa okokugcina engangikumisile. Amamephu 5 no-6 abelula futhi emangalisa ngokuphelele, ngezinhlaka ezikumema ukuthi uqhubeke ukhuphuka ngokwengeziwe; Kodwa-ke, ukumangala akuphelanga: lapho siqala i-pitch 7 sabona ukuthi yize i-drill isenayo ibhethri lokwenza izimbobo eziningi, ukuvikelwa bekuyindlala. Ngenxa yokuthamba kwendawo sithathe isinqumo sokuqhubeka nokubeka izikulufu ezizosibambela kude kakhulu, futhi ngemizamo enenkani yokufika kubude obugcwele obugcwele, zenziwa ngaphandle kwezikulufo ezingaphezulu kwalezo ezibekwe ekuqaleni nasekupheleni kobude ngabunye. Sasisele ngamamitha angama-25 kuphela, kepha asisakwazi ukuqhubeka ngenxa yokushoda kwezikulufo, ezazibalulekile kuleso sigaba sokugcina, ngoba idwala limi mpo.
Ngokushesha sihlela olunye uhambo lokuluqeda. Ingqungquthela efinyelelwe kuvele ukuthi ingqungquthela yamanga; Kodwa-ke, ubuhle bendawo obuhlinzekwa kusukela kulelo phuzu buyamangalisa.
Singaphetha ngokuthi umzila ube nobunzima obulindelekile, kepha kusithathe isikhathi eside kunokulinganiselwa ukukwenza, ngenani lezinsuku ezingama-23 kanye nabantu abayi-15 abasakaze ngaphezu kohambo oluyisishiyagalolunye. Ibanga lokugcina belimi kanje: ubude obuyishumi u-5.10b, okokugcina kube nobunzima u-5.8a (lokhu kuthweswa iziqu kubhekise eqinisweni lokuthi bekufanele silenge ezivikelweni esizifakile ukuze sithuthuke).
ICerro Blanco, naphezu kwemizamo yethu yokwenza kwaziwe, ihlala iyindawo engahloliwe eveza amathuba amaningi okuqwala nokuhamba izintaba. Ngamanye amagama, uCerro Blanco uyaqhubeka nokumangala ngegranite engaphezu kwamamitha angama-500 ukuphakama phakathi nogwadule, exhunywe kuphela ngendlela efihliwe, elinde abagibeli abanenkani, abazimisele ukuyithuthukisa futhi basebenzise imizila eyindawo ngakho-ke kungenzeka futhi kufanele ukuba nakho.
