Etholakala endaweni esentshonalanga emaphakathi nesifundazwe saseNuevo León, eduzane naseCoahuila, iCumbres de Monterrey National Park yamenyezelwa njengendawo evikelekile ngesinqumo sikamongameli ngoNovemba 24, 1939; Amahektha ayo angama-246,500 enza kube ngobukhulu eMexico.
Igama likaCumbres kungenxa yezinhlobo ezinhle zezintaba zaseSierra Madre Oriental ezikulesi sifunda, okuyikhaya lamahlathi e-oak aluhlaza nezimbali nezilwane ezahlukahlukene; Kuyindawo eshisayo ehlobo, kepha kuba nokuwa kweqhwa njalo ebusika. Ngenxa yokwakheka komhlaba nezici zayo zebhayoloji, iyindawo ekahle yokuqwala izintaba, ukukhempa, ukulondolozwa, ukubukwa kwezinyoni kanye nezifundo zemithombo yemvelo.
Enye yezindlela zakamuva yiLa Esmeralda Canyon ende, okuthi, uma iqhathaniswa nezinye, ifune isimo somzimba esihle somhloli wamazwe, ngoba ngokungafani naleyo yeMatacanes neHidrofobia isebenza ngenkathi eyomile, ngakho-ke kungenzeka cabanga ukushisa okukhulu, esinye isici sesisindo sokubhekana nohambo. Ngokunikwa lezi zici, kulinganiselwa ukuthi iqembu elijwayelekile labahambahambayo lizothatha cishe amahora ayi-12 ukuphuma emhosheni.
Kuyafisa ukwazi ukuthi kutholakala kanjani ukuthi batholakale bethwele ukugqwala yiluphi uhambo lokuphayona eminyakeni eyishumi edlule. Kukholakala ukuthi lelo qembu lingene lashiya umhosha ngomunye umzila, njengoba ubufakazi bokuhamba kwabo bunyamalala njengoba umzila uqhubeka.
UHAMBO LOKUHLOLA
Ukuvula umzila omusha kunezinkinga zawo kanti neLa Esmeralda yayinjalo. Ekuzalweni kwabo kokuqala, umqondisi ochwepheshe uMauricio Garza neqembu lakhe babe nesikhathi esinzima ngaphakathi komhosha. -Awazi ukuthi yini ongayilindela, awukaze ube khona…, uphawule ngenkathi elungisa imishini yakhe, uma izintambo zakho zingafiki, usenkingeni futhi akusekho ukuhlehlela emuva, uphethe nje ngesikhathi ezifaka.
Olwethu kuzoba wuhambo lwesibili lokuhlola, futhi ngokusho kukaMauricio, lungenankinga kangako kunangaphambilini. Ngemuva kwalokho, bengizombuza - Uqinisekile ukuthi "unakho konke" amamitha entambo?
Ngokushesha ngemva kokuba imashi iqale, isimo sezulu sashintsha ngokuzumayo. Ukuqubuka okuncane, kuchaza iziqondisi, kungaziguqula kakhulu izimo zokwehla, ikakhulukazi njengoba kuyindawo enenkungu kakhulu, lapho ukubonakala kukhawulelwa kakhulu lapho lina.
Balandisa ukuthi ohambweni lokuqala, bemanzi ngokuphelele, baqhubekela phambili kancane kancane emifantwini yomhosha- -Kwezinye izikhathi besingaboni lutho, bekufana nokuhamba singaboni, ngakho-ke siphonsa amatshe ukubala ukuphakama kwesikhumbuzo, yize bekungenakwenzeka ukwazi ukuthi i-rappel iphele kuphi. inkungu.
Ngemuva kwamahora ayishumi nambili, abagibeli base belahle ithemba lokuthola indlela yokuphuma ngaphambi kokuhlwa; Ngaphandle kwezindlela eziningi zokuthatha isinqumo, baqala ukwakha isiphephelo esihle emadwaleni ukuze bakhosele emakhazeni asezintabeni.
Ngenxa yobumnyama abakwazanga ukubona ukuthi base bezophuma emhosheni, kodwa kwathi kusa kwaphela izithiyo ezingenakubalwa zalokho kwehla. Ngemuva kwamahora ambalwa bashayele izihlobo zabo bezazisa ukuthi wonke umuntu uphephile.
UGustavo Casas, omunye umhlahlandlela onolwazi wachaza ukuthi ukuze wenze uhambo lokuqala lokuhlola udinga okungaphezulu kuneqembu elihle, ngoba ezimweni ezinjengalezi, lapho izinto eziningi zingahle zingahambi njengoba kuhlelwe, amaphesenti ayikhulu ancike kulokho okwenzekile welungu ngalinye leqembu.
UKUHAMBA E-ESMERALDA
Uhambo luqale ngokuqwala okude nokwenyukayo kwehora nesigamu kusuka endaweni yezwe laseJonuco ukufinyelela esicongweni sePuerto de Oyameles, lapho ekugcineni indlela eyehlela emlonyeni womhosha iqala khona. Lesi sigaba sokuqala asixoleli futhi kuphela labo abasesimweni esihle somzimba abasinqoba ngaphandle kwezithiyo.
Ukwehla kungabonakala kulula, kepha ukwehla ngale ndlela nakho kunikeza ubunzima. Umzila unqamula ngaphansi kwehlathi elicinene lehlathi bese uthola ezinye izimfoloko emhosheni omkhulu usendleleni, ukuze umuntu ongayazi kahle le ndawo agcine elahlekile ezintabeni. Ngemuva kokuvika izinkulungwane zamagatsha, amatshe kanye neziqu eziwile, kufinyelelwa i-rappel yokuqala, eyaziwa ngeLa Cascadita, futhi yize ingamamitha amahlanu kuphela ukuphakama, uma usufinyelele ezansi akusekho ukubuyela emuva. Noma ngubani ofika lapha unenketho kuphela yokunqoba zonke izithiyo eLa Esmeralda Canyon.
Ngemuva kwemizuzu engamashumi amabili, kuvela uLa Noria, isikhumbuzi sesibili semitha elishumi esisimboza njengenyoka enkulu ekujuleni komhlaba.
Okuxakayo ukuthi idonsa elilandelayo, u-20m, libizwa ngegama elithi "Ngifuna ukubuyela emuva", ngoba ngokusho kwabaqondisi, ngalesi sikhathi iningi labahamba ngezintaba liyazibuza ukuthi lenzani lapho.
Lapho umzuzu wokuqala wenhlekelele usunqotshiwe, uhambo luyaqhubeka nohambo lwemizuzu engama-40 ukuya esikhumbuzweni esilandelayo, lapho singekho khona isikhathi sokuzisola, njengoba sibhekene nokwehla okubandayo kwamamitha angama-50, "ngomzuzu osemthethweni" wesibili wezinkinga ezihlangene . Ngemuva kokuphumula isikhashana, umzila uqhubeka unqamula emhosheni owehlela ochungechungeni lwama-rappel wokuphakama okuphakathi phakathi kuka-10 no-15 m, obizwa nge-Expansor neLa Grieta, olandulela olunye uchungechunge lwezimpophoma eziyinkimbinkimbi.
"I-V kathathu ngokujika" kungokwehla kwe-angled okudinga amandla amakhulu ukulwa nokubambana kwezintambo edwaleni lasekhoneni, ngaphandle kwalokho umuntu angagcina ebhajwe ngaphezu kwamamitha angama-30 ukusuka esisekelweni. Ukuwa okuphelele kungama-45 m, kepha yimitha yokuqala eyi-15 kuphela enikeza ukuwa kwamahhala, njengoba lapho idwala liphenduka ngokungazelelwe ngakwesobunxele, linikeza ukumelana okukhulu nokunyakaza kwentambo.
Okunye ukuhamba kwemizuzu engama-40 kuholela kwelokuqala kuma-platelet amabili emzileni. Owokuqala, wamamitha amane, unezinkinga ezimbalwa, kepha owesibili, ongaphezu kwamamitha angama-20, ngokungangabazeki ukwehla okusabisayo kulo mzila, yize ukufinyelela kuwo kusenezinye izintaba ezintathu ezizokwenziwa, i-El Charco, eyi-15 m , Del Buzo, 30 m noLa Palma, 10m ukuphakama.
Ama-platelet akhiwa i-drip engapheli, into efana nokuthi kwenzekani ngama-stalactites nama-stalagmites emihumeni. Ukwakheka kwayo kuyindilinga, ukuze ukwehla kufane nokwesihlahla, yize kumangalisa kakhulu.
Ukwehla kulawa ma-platelet kudinga ukugxila kakhulu, ngoba uma usisekela ngokuphelele isisindo sakho kungadala ukuhlangana kwalokhu okwakheka kwamatshe okuntekenteke, okungalimaza intambo noma kulimaze uzakwabo olinde ngezansi.
Ngemuva kokunqoba lokhu kwehla okusabekayo - kufanele ngikwamukele ukuthi le platelet ingenze ngazizwa ngine-vertigo - saqhubeka saya engxenyeni ejulile yomhosha ukuvala ngama-rappel amabili okugcina, iLa Palmita 2, amamitha amahlanu, ne-Ya engekho ngaphezu kwama-50 m, yize ngemuva kokwehla kokugcina kusekhona esinye isikhumbuzi sika-70 m, okuthi ngezizathu ezahlukahlukene esingakaqinisekiswa ngalo mzila.
Leliwa lizokhethwa ngamaqembu agcina ijubane elihle kulo lonke uhambo, oluzovumela ukuthi bafike lapho ngesikhathi esihle ukwehla ngezintambo, ngaphandle kwalokho bazophoqeleka ukuba bahambe ngendlela eholela ekupheleni komhosha.
Ngemuva kokuhlola zonke izingozi nobunzima obekufanele babhekane nabo kokwehla kwabo okokuqala ngeLa Esmeralda, uMauricio Garza unesiqiniseko sokuthi lomhosha maduze nje uzoba umzila othandwa kakhulu ngabavakashi abanesibindi ezweni.
