Nzira Inoita Kusiyanisa
Kune zvikamu zvinenge hafu-gumi zvinogona kuendeswa kumusangano weKirimanjaro, mumwe nomumwe ane matambudziko ake akaenzana uye maitiro. Semuenzaniso, Marangu Road ndiyo inonyanya kuoma, iyo inogona kuita kuti nzira yacho iwedzere dzimwe nguva, asi inopawo hutsanho (panzvimbo pematende) ekurara usiku humwe neimwe. Panguva iyi, iyo Machame Route inonyanya kuoma asi inonyatsozivikaniswa nokuti iri yakajeka zvakare.

PaTusker's Climb for Valor, takashamba kazhinji tisina kushandisa Northern Circuit - imwe nzvimbo yeRomosho Route - iyo yaireva kuwanda kwekugara mumugwagwa kwemazuva mazhinji.
Dzimwe nguva zvainzwa sokuti taive negomo rose kwatiri, iro rakaita kuti tive nechiitiko chakasiyana zvikuru kubva kune avo vari kufamba munzira imwe chete yakanyatsocheka kusvika kumusoro. Uyewo, migwagwa yakareba inodhura mari yakawanda yekukwira, asiwo inopa nguva yakawanda yekugadzirisa zvakare, icho chinhu chisingafaniri kukanganwa.
Utachiona hweHutendi Hunogona Kukanganisa Munhu
Sezvakataurwa, chimwe chezvipingamupinyi zvakakura zvekukwira kwechiKirijjaro kunokunda kumusoro. Hazvishamisi kuti vatengesi vanzwe misoro, kusuruvara, kurasikirwa kwechido, kusuruvara, uye zvimwe zviratidzo sezvavanokwira mugomo. Iyo inogonawo kuunza chirwere chakakwana chakakwirira, icho chinogona kutyisidzira upenyu kana chisina kutarisirwa zvakanaka. Nzira chete yekuderedza mamiriro acho ezvinhu ndeyekuburukira kunzvimbo yakadzika, iyo yakanga isiri nyore kune chikamu chekure chegomo kwataive tichifamba.
Pakupedzisira, helicopter yakadanwa kuti ibudise iye uye mukati memamiriro emaawa, iye akanzwa zviri nani zvikuru. Asi Kili yake yakakwira yakanga yapera, uye yakanga iri chiyeuchidzo chakanaka kune isu tose isu kuti kureba kwehutano kunogona kukanganisa chero ani zvake, kusanganisira avo vakagadzirirwa zvakanaka uye mukurumbira wepanyama.
Kutengesa Mapurisa zvakakosha
Chimwe chezvikamu zvakakosha zve gear zvaunogona kuuya newe paKirimanjaro kukwira ibhiti rakanaka rematanda. Aya matanda achakubatsira kuti urambe uine hutsika mumigwagwa iyo inowanzova yakaoma, isina kukwana, uye yakavharwa mumatombo asina kusimba. Vachakubatsirawo makumbo ako kuti arambe akasimba muhupenyu hwose, zvose zvichikwira, uye kunyanya kana uchidzoka zvakare mugomo. Kana iwe usingazivi kuti ungashandisa sei matanda apo iwe uchikwira, saka tinogona kuratidzira kuita nguva isati yasvika. Nenzira iyo, kana iwe uchitanga Kili yako yekare iwe ugove wakajaira kuva navo mumaoko ako, uye hazvizonzwi uchinetseka munzira. Mushure mokuwana ruzivo rwakawanda uchishandisa matanda, munguva pfupi uchaona kuti kufamba pamwe navo kunova wechipiri unhu, uye iwe uchakoshesa zvatinopa.
Kuenda Kuno Hwakanyanya Kupfuura Iwe Unofunga
Nezvikwata zvaro zvishoma, mweya wakaonda, uye nzvimbo yakaoma, kusvika kumusangano weKirimanjaro unoda zvakawanda kutarisa nekuzvitsaurira. Ndokusaka vatengesi vakawanda vanotarisa kutendeuka nekudzokera shure mugomo kana vapedza. Asi nenzira dzakawanda, kubva kunogona kuoma kupfuura kukwira kumusangano, izvo zvinogona kutungamirira kune kutambura kwakawanda kusingatarisirwi pazuva rekupedzisira rekukwira. Vazhinji vanokwira vachapedza nguva shoma yemazuva mashanu vanosvika pamusangano, asi ivo vachanyatsoshandisa zuva rimwe chete vachidzoka zvakare, vachiburuka zviuru zvemakumbo munzvimbo. Iko kukura kukuru kwepamusoro kwakanaka kumapapu asi kunonetsa zvikuru pamakumbo, ayo kazhinji anowanzokanganisika uye aora mwoyo mushure mekufamba kwenguva refu kusvika kumusangano.

Hasi Munhu wese Anozvipa kuNyaya
Sezvatotaurwa, pane nhema inopoteredza Kilimanjaro inoti munhu wese anogona kuzviita kumusoro. Izvi zvinokutungamirira iwe kuti utende kuti kune hukuru hwekubudirira kwepamusoro pagomo neanenge anenge munhu wese achisvika pamusangano. Ichokwadi kuti inenge 60% yevaya vanoedza kukwira chiKiri vanonyatsobudirira. Izvozvo zvinoreva kuti 4 kubva kune gumi hazviiti kuti zvive kumusoro, nehukuru uye hutano hunovadzivirira kuti varege kuona "Roof of Africa." Zvakakosha kune mufambi anofambira kuti anzwisise zvipingamupinyi asati aedza kukwira, sezvazvichaita uyewo kuvabatsira kuti vaongorore mamiriro avo pachavo zvakajeka pavanosarudza kana vachigona kuramba vachikwiridza mugomo, kana kuti vanoda kudzoka ivo pachavo. Nenzira iyo, kubudirira kweTusker kunowedzera kusvika 90% nokuda kwechikamu chemigwagwa yakareba iyo inokwidza uye kuongorora kwehutano hwavanoita nenzira.
The View From Top is Worth the Effort
Pamusoro pemugwagwa weKirimanjaro, vatengesi vachazviwana vachinetseka nguva dzose. Mukuwedzera kune mazuva mazhinji ari mumugwagwa, uye kunetseka kufema mweya wakaonda, vangawana kuti vanorasikirwa nechido chavo, vane nguva yakaoma yokurara, uye vanowanzova vasinganzwisisiki nekuda kwechimwe chimwe chezvinhu zvinosanganisira mamiriro okunze, avo vanobatana navo , zvichingoenda zvakadaro. Asi pavanosvika pamusangano wezvinhu izvi zvinetso zvinoshambidzwa sezvo vachipemberera zvavanoita. Maonero kubva kunzvimbo yakakwirira muAfrica inoshamisa, uye gomo rinoshumira senzvimbo yako, uye mabani eAfrica anopararira munzvimbo dzose. Icho chiitiko chinoshamisa, kutaura zvishoma, uye kunyange zvisiri nyore, mhindu kune iyo musangano inoita kuti zvose zvive zvakakosha.
