Kuzivisa Erta Ale Volcano
Kana iwe uchikwira pamusoro pekufambira mberi kwekufamba-uye, kunyanya, kubva----kufamba ruzivo-iwe unogona kunge wakanzwa nezveTurkmenistan's "Door to Hell" (inozivikanwawo se "Gedhi reGehena"), gassy inferno izvo zvave zvichipisa kwenguva yakareba sokuti nhau dzemoto wekupedzisira dzokuzorora nzvimbo yevakaipa dzakatora pasi pasi. Iyi nzvimbo inofungidzira, pasina mubvunzo, asi inongoda kungoenda kunodhura paunosvika muTurkmenistan, asi rwendo rusingabhadhari ikoko kuti rutange, uye nhepfenyuro dzese dzinogadzirisa dzinouya nekufamba muCentral Asia.
Kune vasiri vefambi, Etiopiya inoita seinooma sekushanyira seTurkmenistan, kunyange zvazvo sezvandakatsanangura pano, zvikamu zvayo zviri nyore chaizvo. Zvechokwadi, unoda kurongwa kwakarongeka kushanyira Erta Ale Volcano, mhinduro yeEthiopia kuTurkmenistan's gassy inferno, kunyange zvazvo mari uye misoro inobatanidza nekuita izvi zvishoma kudarika zvaunotarisana muCentral Asia. Ramba uchienda kune chikamu chokupedzisira chenyaya ino kana iwe unofarira kufamba kuna Erta Ale, uye ini ndichakuvhuna iwe!
Vamwe mose, tapota munakidzwe nemifananidzo yakaisvonaka uye nyaya dzandinenge ndava kuda kutaura.
Erta Ale: Nhau
Kutaura zvazviri, nyaya yaErta Ale-sevagari vemo vanozvitaurira, zvakadaro-haisi kunyanya kunakidza, kunyanya kwete pakutanga. Mutsara wekuti "Erta Ale," iwe unoona, unoreva "Guta Rekusvuta," rinenge risina mhosva risina mhosva rinogona kunzirwa kune iyo ipi zvayo ipi zvayo ine mhirizhonga munyika.
Kunyange zvazvo mamwe mawebsite anotaura kuti vanhu veAfar (vanobva mumutauro wavo kushandurirwa kune "Smoking Mountain" vanobva) ndivo ndivo vakauya ne "Door to Hell" mazita, zvinoratidzika hazvigoneki kuongorora izvi vachishandisa iyo inobva kune chero mukurumbira.
Zvechokwadi, zvaizoita sezviri nyore kuti munhu asina humwe humwe, kana mumwe wevasayendisiti vakawana gomo iri muna 1906 kana mumwe wevashandi vekushanyisa uyo kubva ipapo akaedza kutengesa mazendo pano, akasarudza kuti yaizova nzira yakanaka yekudhinda, ingave kana kwete ivo vaiziva nezvehanzvadzi yaErta Ale hanzvadzi yegehena (iyo iyo haisi iyo inoputika zvachose) pavakasarudza iyo.
Erta Ale: The Science
Uye kunyange apo dzakawanda zvipembenene pasi pano zviri kunyuta kusvuta makomo, chokwadi ndechekuti Erta Ale akasiyana. Chimwe chinhu chinogadzira kunyengedzwa kwemukova wegehena, unoona, inonzi colloquially inozivikanwa se "rinoramba iri reva lake," uye inowanikwa kune dzimwe mhepo ina chete ine makomo munyika: Ambrym, mune zvitsuwa zveVanuatu; Gomo reErebus, paRoss Island muAntarctica; Kilauea paGreat Island yeHawaii; uye Nyiragongo muDemocratic Republic of the Congo.
(Chaizvoizvo, kana tichizoshanda, Erta Ale ane mazai maviri emvura, asi nekuda kwekunyengedzera kwekufamba kwechikwata chake, mafambiro evashanyi kazhinji anongoshanyira mumwe wavo.)
Chimwe chiitiko chinonakidza pamusoro peErta Ale ndechekuti ndiyo inoputika yeEthiopia inopisa, iyo inonzwisisika kana iwe uchifamba munyika, iyo inosanganisira mamwe emakomo akare muAfrica-Semiens. Nekunge zvataurwa izvi, hazvigoneki kuti kuputika kwekukuvadza kunogona kuitika, zvirokwazvo kuti zvaizoitika nevashanyi vari kumusoro. Kupera kwekupedzisira kukuru kweErta Ale kwaiva muna 2005, panguva iyo zvipfuwo chete zvakagumburwa nehasha dzayo.
Nzira Yokushanyira Erta Ale
Erta Ale iri muEthiopia kudengenyeka kweDanakil, iyo yakadzika zvikuru (ndiri kutaura "pasi pezasi kwegungwa" pasi!) Chikamu chenyika iri kuchamhembe kwakadziva kumabvazuva.
Haisi kuwanda kwepasi kweDanakil, asi iyo yakaderedza zvakadini kupfuura nyika yose, iyo inogara pane 2,000-or-so mita yemitare, iyo inoita kuti nzvimbo nenzvimbo dzayo dziite sekushamisa kunoshamisa.
Ini ndinounza dambudziko guru reDanakil, nokuti kunze kwokunge iwe ukanyora rwendo rwese rwomunhu oga (kushandura kuAmharic: $$$$$$), uchada kuona Erta Ale sechikamu chekushanyira kuderera kwose, uye kazhinji pa kuguma kwayo. Dzimwe nzvimbo dziri pazorwendo dzinosanganisira minda yesarufa kuDallol , imwe yenzvimbo dzinopisa zvikuru pasi pano, pamwe chete nedzimwe nzvimbo dzinotyisa uye nezvimwe zvinonakidza zvinoshamisa. Mariro inoshanduka-uye inogona kubhadharwa-asi kazhinji inomhanya inenge 600 USD kwemazuva mana.
(Cherechedzai: Kana zvikwereti izvi zvichiita zvakakwirira, ramba uchifunga mupfungwa dzinosanganisira kuperekedzwa kwemauto, izvo zvinokosha nekuda kwehurumende yehurumende yeEthiopia yeEritrea kuuraya vatashanyi zvakare muna 2012.
Kunyange zvazvo nhengo dzehondo dzinofamba newe dzisinganyanyi kunetseka mukutsamwa kwavo-dzinopfeka jelly, kune imwe-dzinopfuura kudarika kumwe rufu pamaoko eEritrean magandanga.)
Kana uchingosvika kuErta Ale (iyo, zvakare, inofanira kuitika pazuva rechitatu rekushanya kwemazuva mana), iwe uchatora maawa matatu, akawanda--maira kumhanya pamusoro pegomo, uko iwe uchadya kudya kwemanheru uye musasa. Iwe uchapedza inenge awa imwe chete paDhoo chaiyo kuGehena (uye ndinoreva pamusuo wegehena, pedyo newe kupfuura iwe ungambotenderwa munyika mune chero rudzi rwemitemo yekuchengetedza) usati warara, iwe uchazomuka awa imwe masikati asati aona kubuda kwezuva pamusoro pegomba remoto, vasati vadzokera shure uye vachidzokera kumashure kuMekele, guta riri pedyo.
Zvinonyanya kuitika kuti tishanyire Erta Ale gore rose, kunyange zvazvo kufamba kwakanyanya kuchamhembe kweEtiopia kunonetsa pakati paJune naSeptember, kureva nguva yemvura. Kunyange zvazvo mvura isingawanzoitiki zvakanyanya muDanakil Kuora mwoyo kuisa pangozi zvirongwa zvekufamba, dambudziko rako mune dzimwe nguva dzegore richave richienda kuMekele pacharo.
