Endaweni ethile emngceleni weChile ne- Argentina yiyona ndawo evelele kakhulu ePatagonia - Cerro Torre, noma eNtabeni Sierra Torre. Iheha imibono yabalimi ezintabeni, kodwa isikhathi eside akekho oye wazama ukuwunqoba. Ukuphakama kwakwenziwe ezintabeni ezizungezile zale ndawo yezintaba - uFitzroy , Standhard, u-Egger oyinhloko.
Umlando we-ascents
Ngaphandle kweqiniso lokuthi intaba yeSierra-Torre inesisindo esiyingqayizivele esingaphezu kwekhilomitha eliphezulu, isimo sezulu esibi sivimbela ukuphakama. Ngokuvamile kakhulu kunezinsuku ezihle, futhi sonke isikhathi isikhathi sokuvunguza umoya ovuthayo - ukujula kolwandle kwenza uzizwe uqobo.
Owokuqala ukukhwela eCroro Torre ngo-1959 kwakunguCesare Maestri waseNtaliyane kanye nomqhubi weTonny Egger wakhe. Lalotshwa ngamazwi kaMaestri ngokwakhe, okungekho owakwazi ukuqinisekisa, njengoba umlingani wakhe ebulawa ngenkathi ehla ngaphansi kwesiphepho seqhwa. Abaningi babengakholelwa izindaba ze-Italian ezingenakuqhathaniswa. Kwabe sekuthi ngo-1970, waphinde wazama ukukhuphuka, esebenzisa ama-bolt hooks ukuze enze umzila, owenzelwe edwaleni ngosizo lwe-compressor. Emva kwalokho, lo mzila wabizwa ngokuthi "i-Compressor". Futhi lo mkhumbi wayelindele ukudumazeka - lonke izwe lokuzintaba lammangalela ngokubiza ngale ndlela yokunyuka kwecala futhi "ukubulala okungenakwenzeka".
Ngo-1974, uPinot Negri, uCasimro Ferrari, uDaniel Chappa noMario Conti nabo bonke baqoqa iNtaba iCroro Torre, bekhuphuka emthambekeni wasempumalanga. Futhi ngonyaka ka-2005, iqembu labagibeli laphinde lazimisela ukugibela umzila "Compressor" futhi yaqinisekisa ukuthi ayidlulelwanga kuze kube sekupheleni, ngoba ama-bolts aphela ngaphambi kwesayithi eliyingozi kakhulu. Ekugcineni, futhi uMaestri ngokwakhe wavuma ukuthi ukunqoba kwentaba kwakuphupho lokuphila kwakhe, okwakungakaze kwenzeke.
Ngonyaka wezi-2012, abaseMelika abancane baseLamanda no-Ortner bakhuphukela phezulu ngendlela eqotho, futhi endleleni eya emuva bakhulula intaba kusuka ezinkolweni eziningi ezisontekile, babuyisela indlela eya kwifomu layo langempela.
Izici zezokuvakasha
Kwabahambi abavamile abangenawo amakhono ochwepheshe bezintaba, bevakashela ukuphakama kwe-Cerro Torre ngamathumba kuze kufike lapho bebona izintaba zisuka, izithombe ezinhle nezinyawo ukuya enyaweni yentaba. Akusizi ngalutho, lokhu kuphakama kubhekwa njengenye yezinzima kakhulu ukunqoba emhlabeni.
Ungafika kanjani?
Indlela elula yokufika entabeni ivela edolobheni lase-El Calafate . Ukusuka lapho amabhasi okuhamba nsuku zonke eya edolobheni lase- El Chalten , elele phansi kwezintaba.
