Pōkole Annapurna Circuit Trek - 12 lā

E hoʻomaka mākou i kā mākou huakaʻi pōkole ʻo Annapurna Circuit Trek mai Kathmandu a i Besisahar, he 9-10 hola wale nō ka holo kaʻa. Ma hope o kēlā, pono mākou e neʻe i ka hale hoʻokipa ʻo Dharapani, aia ma 1860 mika ma luna o ka ʻilikai. I kou haʻalele ʻana i ke kūlanakauhale paʻahana ma ke kua, e mākaukau e hoʻopio ʻia e ke ʻano o ka ʻāina.

Hōʻike kēia huakaʻi pōkole hoihoi ʻo Annapurna Circuit Trek i nā mea āpau a Nepal e hāʻawi ai, e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke hauʻoli i ka wahi kupaianaha ʻo Annapurna. Ke hiki ʻoe i Dharapani, e hauʻoli i ka nani o nā mea kanu a me nā kuʻuna moʻomeheu waiwai me ka hauʻoli i kahi hele wāwae pōkole ma ke kaʻapuni ʻo Annapurna.

Hiki iā ʻoe ke pōmaikaʻi mai kā mākou mea hoʻohui hou i ke kumu kūʻai keu i ka wā e hoʻopaʻa ai i kekahi hōkele ma Kathmandu. Inā makemake ʻia, loaʻa kahi jeep pilikino mai Kathmandu a Dharapani ma ke ʻano he addon koho.

Ma ka lā 2, e hoʻomaka mākou i kā mākou huakaʻi maikaʻi mai Dharapani a i Chame, e hele ana ma 2600 mika kiʻekiʻe i nā hola 5 a 6 mua. I ka wā o ka huakaʻi, hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i nā hiʻohiʻona nani, kaʻalo ma ke ala o nā kauhale nani, a hele ma waena o nā ululāʻau mānoanoa.

Hiki iā ʻoe ke hauʻoli i nā hiʻohiʻona o nā piko o Annapurna lāua ʻo Manasalu , a ʻike i nā hiʻohiʻona e loli nei. He kūlanakauhale kupaianaha ʻo Chame i hoʻopuni ʻia e nā mauna nui. ʻAʻole wale ka hele wāwae e pili ana i ka hana; hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻopili me nā kamaʻāina, e loaʻa ana ka ʻike o kā lākou moʻomeheu ma o nā kamaʻilio ʻana.

I ka wā o ka huakaʻi, e hana mākou i nā hoʻonohonoho kūpono e hōʻoluʻolu i kou noho ʻana ma nā hale hoʻokipa, a e hāʻawi ʻia iā ʻoe i ʻekolu ʻai i kēlā me kēia lā.

Aia nā meaʻai i ka ʻaina kakahiaka, ka ʻaina awakea, a me ka ʻaina ahiahi. Ma hope o ka pāʻina pō, hāʻawi ʻia ʻoe i nā huaʻai kau. Eia kekahi, e mālama mākou i ka hoʻonohonoho ʻana i kāu ʻae hele wāwae, me ka palapala ACAP a me ka palapala TIMS.

ʻAʻole i hoʻokomo ʻia nā lilo e pili ana i ka huakaʻi, ka uku hoʻopakele pilikia, a me ka ʻinikua i loko o ka pūʻolo, a pono ʻoe e hoʻonohonoho a hoʻopaʻa i kēia mau koina. E hōʻoia e hoʻolālā i kēia mau mea koʻikoʻi e hōʻoia i kahi ʻike huakaʻi palekana a mākaukau maikaʻi.

ʻO ka mea aʻe ma kā mākou huakaʻi pōkole ʻo Annapurna Circuit Trek he huakaʻi mai Chame a i Pisang, e mau ana ma kahi o 5-6 mau hola a e lawe iā mākou i kahi kiʻekiʻe o 3100 mika. Hāʻawi kēia ʻāpana o ka huakaʻi i nā hiʻohiʻona nani, e hele ana ma waena o nā ʻāina like ʻole e like me nā ululāʻau mānoanoa, nā kauhale nani, a me nā ʻāina mahiʻai maloʻo. He mea leʻaleʻa ka hele wāwae, me nā mea nani he nui e ʻike ai.

Hiki iā mākou ke hauʻoli i nā hiʻohiʻona nani o Annapurna a me Pisang, e hoʻonui i kā mākou huakaʻi. Ke hōʻea mākou i Pisang, kahi metropolis ma ke kumu o ka mauna, hiki iā mākou ke ʻike i ke ʻano o ka nohona kūloko a ʻike i nā hiʻohiʻona kupaianaha. Hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻimi i ka nani o ke ʻano, e kau ana i ka pae no nā mea hoihoi i mua.

Hāʻawi ʻia iā ʻoe me nā lako huakaʻi maʻamau e like me ke kāʻei iho, ʻeke moe, ʻeke duffel, a me kahi pālule Ambition Himalaya. Eia nō naʻe, pono e hoʻomaopopo ʻia e hoʻihoʻi ʻia ka ʻeke ʻeke ʻeke, ka ʻaʻahu lalo, a me ka ʻeke moe ma hope o ka huakaʻi.

Eia hou, e loaʻa pū me ke alakaʻi kahi pahu kōkua mua, me nā lāʻau lapaʻau e pono ai. No ka nānā ʻana i kāu pae oxygen a me ka pulse a pale i ka maʻi kiʻekiʻe, e hāʻawi mākou i kahi oximeter.

Ma ka Lā 4, e hele mākou no kahi huakaʻi pōkole ʻo Annapurna Circuit Trek hoihoi mai Pisang a i Manang, i loko o 4-6 mau hola. Maanei, hiki iā ʻoe ke hālāwai me nā ʻāina, mai nā ululāʻau ʻōmaʻomaʻo a i nā wahi maloʻo, a hauʻoli i nā hiʻohiʻona nani o nā piko ʻo Annapurna a me Gangapurna.

Ma ke ala, hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i ka moʻomeheu waiwai o kahi kokoke me nā kauhale hoihoi a me nā monasteries mōʻaukala. E hōʻea i Manang, he kūlanakauhale nani i hoʻopuni ʻia e ke ala o nā mauna kiʻekiʻe, e hāʻawi ana i kahi ʻike i ka nohona Tibetan maʻamau.

ʻAʻole hoʻāʻo wale kēia ʻo Annapurna Circuit Trek i kou mana kino akā hāʻawi pū i nā manawa maikaʻi loa, e hoʻomaikaʻi ana i ka nani o ka Annapurna Circuit. Hāʻawi mākou i nā alakaʻi alakaʻi ʻōlelo Pelekania i hoʻomaʻamaʻa maikaʻi ʻia, a ʻo kā lākou pūʻolo e pili ana i ka uku, ka noho ʻana, nā meaʻai, ka halihali, a me ka ʻinikua.

No nā hui me ka ʻoi aku o 6 poʻe, e loaʻa kahi alakaʻi kōkua, a ʻo kā lākou pūʻolo e uhi i ka uku, noho, ʻai, kaʻa, a me ka ʻinikua. ʻO nā meaʻai a i ʻole nā ​​mea inu ʻaʻole i wehewehe ʻia i loko o ka huakaʻi i manaʻo ʻia he mau lilo hou. Pono nā mākaʻikaʻi e hoʻolilo e like me nā meaʻai i uhi ʻole ʻia e ka pūʻolo huakaʻi.

I kēia manawa, ua hiki i ka manawa e hoʻomaha iki mai kāu huakaʻi pōkole ʻo Annapurna Circuit Trek a hauʻoli i kahi hele wāwae hou a puni ʻo Manang. E hala ana he 3-4 mau hola e ʻike ai i kahi mālie, hele i kahi loko, a hiki i kahi hiʻohiʻona panoramic ma 3,440 mika.

Hiki iā ʻoe ke leʻaleʻa i ka nani o ke ʻano, ka pana ʻana i nā ʻike ākea o ka ʻano Annapurna. ʻO kēia lā me ka hana ʻole he mea hoʻoweliweli ia i kou kino e hoʻomaha a mahalo i ka nani moʻomeheu a me ka nani o ka wahi. Ua hele ʻoe no kāu huakaʻi i kēia manawa, e kakali ana i nā kūlana koʻikoʻi a me nā mea kupanaha o kāu huakaʻi Kaapuni ʻo Annapurna.

Ma ke ala holoʻokoʻa, e kōkua nā poʻe lawe puka, me hoʻokahi kahu lawe i hāʻawi ʻia e lawe i nā ukana o ʻelua trekkers. Loaʻa i ka pūʻolo lawe ka uku, ka meaʻai, ka noho ʻana, a me ka halihali. ʻO nā lilo pilikino e like me ke kelepona ʻana, nā lawelawe holoi lole, a me nā uku no ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka ua ma waho o nā pono i hāʻawi ʻia ʻaʻole i hoʻokomo ʻia i loko o ka pūʻolo.

Ma ka Lā 6, e hoʻomau mākou i kā mākou huakaʻi hele wāwae ʻo Annapurna Circuit Trek he 12 lā a hiki i 4,000 mika i loko o 4-5 mau hola mai Manang a i Yak Kharka. Maanei, hiki iā ʻoe ke hauʻoli i nā ʻāina maloʻo a ʻike i nā hiʻohiʻona nani o nā mauna kokoke. E piʻi mālie ma waena o nā kula kiʻekiʻe, kahi e ʻike ai ʻoe i nā yaks e ʻai ana i ka ʻāina momona.

A laila, e hōʻea mākou i kā mākou wahi i manaʻo ʻia - ʻo Yak Kharka, he kauhale i hoʻopuni ʻia e nā mauna hanohano. ʻAʻole hiki i kēia huakaʻi pōkole ʻo Annapurna ke hoʻomanawanui i ke kūlana koʻikoʻi o kou ikaika kino. Eia naʻe, hiki iā ʻoe ke komo i ka mālie o ka Himalayas.

E hoʻomaha mai kēia pāpū kiʻekiʻe ʻoiai ʻoe e hoʻomākaukau ai no nā huakaʻi e hiki mai ana i loko o ka pōʻai ʻo Annapurna. ʻAʻole i hoʻokomo ʻia ka makana no nā alakaʻi a me nā mea lawe puka a pono e noʻonoʻo ʻia he uku hou.

Ma ka Lā 7, e hoʻomaka mākou i ka huakaʻi pōkole ʻo Annapurna Circuit Trek mai Yak Kharka a i Thorang High Camp, e piʻi ana i 4,880 mika i loko o 4-5 mau hola. Lawe kēia ala iā ʻoe i nā wahi kiʻekiʻe, e hōʻike ana i nā ʻāina kiʻekiʻe loa a me ka Thorang Range kupaianaha. Me kēlā me kēia ʻanuʻu, e mahana ana ka ea, a e ʻoi aku ka nani o nā hiʻohiʻona.

Ke hiki ʻoe i ke kahua hoʻomoana kiʻekiʻe ʻo Thorang, he wahi hoʻomaha koʻikoʻi ia ma mua o ka paʻakikī o Thorang La Pass. ʻAʻole ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hele ʻana i kēia lā i kou kūpaʻa akā mālama pū kekahi iā ʻoe i nā wahi hoihoi. E ʻike i ka kūleʻa maikaʻi loa o ka hiki ʻana i kēia milestone i loko o ka pōʻai ʻo Annapurna ma waena o nā mauna nui loa. E hoʻomākaukau no ka huakaʻi e hiki mai ana.

E hoʻomākaukau kākou no kahi lā maikaʻi i kou kamaʻilio ʻana i ka Thorang La Pass paʻakikī, e holo ana ma 5,416 mika. E hoʻomaka i kahi huakaʻi hauʻoli mai Thorang High Camp a hiki i ka Muktinath paʻakikī. He 7-8 mau hola ka huakaʻi, no laila pono ʻoe e hoʻomanawanui a hoʻoholo.

Ke hiki ʻoe i ke alahele, e hauʻoli i nā hiʻohiʻona hoihoi o Annapurna lāua ʻo Mustang . A laila, e neʻe mākou ma Muktinath ma 3,710 mika, kahi wahi kapu me nā luakini mōʻaukala a me nā hiʻohiʻona nani. Ua like kēia lā me ka puʻuwai o ke kaapuni ʻo Annapurna, e hōʻailona ana i kahi leʻaleʻa nui no kāu huakaʻi piʻi.

I kēia manawa, e hoʻomaka kākou i kā kākou huakaʻi pōkole ʻo Annapurna Circuit Trek me kahi huakaʻi ʻoluʻolu mai Muktinath a i Tatopani, ma kahi kiʻekiʻe o 1,190 mika ma luna o 5-6 mau hola. Hele ke alanui ma o nā wahi like ʻole, a e ʻike ʻoe i nā kauhale ma ke kahawai ʻo Kali Gandaki . Hiki iā ʻoe ke hauʻoli i nā hiʻohiʻona mai nā mauna a i nā ʻāina wela.

Ke hōʻea mākou i Tatopani, kaulana no kona mau puna wai wela, hiki iā mākou ke pōmaikaʻi mai kēia a hoʻomaha. ʻAʻole kēia kaʻa e lawe iā ʻoe i nā kiʻekiʻe haʻahaʻa akā kōkua pū kekahi iā ʻoe e noʻonoʻo i ka piʻi mauna nui a hauʻoli i ke ʻano kuʻuna a kūlohelohe o ka wahi ʻo Annapurna.

A laila, e hala mākou i kahi ala piʻi he 2,660 mika i Ghorepani. E hala ana ma kahi o 7-8 mau hola, a i kekahi manawa o ka huakaʻi, e lele mākou ma waena o nā ululāʻau, nā kauhale liʻiliʻi, a me nā mahiʻai. I ko mākou hele ʻana i luna, e ʻike mākou i kahi hiʻohiʻona kupaianaha o nā puʻu ʻo Annapurna lāua ʻo Dhaulagiri . He kauhale kupaianaha ʻo Ghorepani ma luna o kahi puʻu i hoʻopuni ʻia e nā rhododendrons maikaʻi loa.

He paʻakikī iki paha ka hele pōkole ʻana ma ke kaapuni ʻo Annapurna , akā i ka wā e hiki ai mākou iā Ghorepani, e hauʻoli mākou i ka napoʻo ʻana o ka lā mai ka mauna ʻo Poon . He lā paʻakikī paha kēia, akā naʻe, ʻo nā wahi hoihoi a me nā moʻolelo kupaianaha ma ke kaapuni ʻo Annapurna e kūpono ia. E mālie a e mākaukau no nā huakaʻi hou aku!

Ma ka lā 11, e hoʻomaka mākou me kahi huakaʻi mua i ka mauna kaulana ʻo Poon ma 3,210 mika. A laila, e hele wāwae mākou i Biretanti me ka nānā ʻana i ka ʻike. ʻO kahi ʻē aʻe, hiki iā ʻoe ke holo i lalo i kahi haʻahaʻa o 820m. Hōʻike ke alahele i nā ʻano ʻāina like ʻole, mai nā ululāʻau alpine a i nā ululāʻau hoʻomehana.

A laila, e hōʻailona mākou i ka hopena o kā mākou huakaʻi a i ʻole kaʻa a hiki i Biretanti. E hoʻokaʻawale i kekahi manawa e noʻonoʻo ai i kāu mau ʻike poina ʻole ʻo Annapurna Circuit i kou hoʻomākaukau ʻana no ka wāwae hope o kāu huakaʻi. Ua uhi pū ʻia nā ʻauhau huakaʻi, nā pepa, a me nā uku lawelawe ʻoihana no ka huakaʻi.

Ma hope o kēlā, e hoʻopau mākou i kā mākou huakaʻi pōkole ʻo Annapurna Circuit Trek me kahi huakaʻi lōʻihi he 7-8 hola mai Pokhara a i Kathmandu ma kahi kaʻa mākaʻikaʻi. No kou maʻalahi, hāʻawi ʻia ke koho o kahi kaʻa pilikino a i ʻole ka mokulele mai Pokhara a i Kathmandu, me nā uku hou aʻe e pili ana.

ʻAʻole ʻāpana ka noho ʻana a me nā hana ma Kathmandu o ka pūʻulu huakaʻi. ʻO ka ʻaina awakea a me ka ʻaina ahiahi ma Pokhara: ʻAʻole uhi ʻia nā meaʻai ma Pokhara; pono ʻoe e hoʻokaʻawale kālā no kēia mau mea. Hiki i nā kūlana i manaʻo ʻole ke alakaʻi i nā kumukūʻai hou, e like me ka lohi a i ʻole nā loli i nā hoʻolālā.

I ka wā o ka huakaʻi, hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i nā ʻāina he nui e like me nā kula, nā muliwai, a me nā kauhale nani. E noʻonoʻo i nā moʻolelo maikaʻi āu i loaʻa ai, mai ka hele wāwae a hiki i ke aʻo ʻana i nā moʻomeheu like ʻole. I kou hōʻea ʻana, e mālama ʻia ʻoe i kahi pāʻina Nepali kuʻuna ma ke ʻano he hoʻokipa maikaʻi.

I ka pau ʻana o kāu huakaʻi, e loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi palapala hoʻokō e hoʻomanaʻo a hoʻolauleʻa i kāu huakaʻi holomua. ʻO ka hope, e hōʻea mākou i Kathmandu, me ka haʻaheo a me nā mea hoʻomanaʻo kūʻokoʻa. Hōʻike kēia ʻāpana hope o ka huakaʻi i ka nani o Nepal, e hui pū ana i nā mea kupanaha kūlohelohe a me ka waiwai moʻomeheu e hoʻopau pono i kāu huakaʻi.
