ʻO kahi o nā mea nui o Bernardo O'Higgins National Parkʻo ia ka glacier Balmaseda. No ka loaʻaʻana iā ia he mea kūpono iā ia ke loaʻa i nā manaʻo nui, me ke ala paʻakikī a me ka nui o nā hele. ʻO nā wahi i kūʻole ai ka nani maoli i ka paleʻana i ka nohona civila, ka mea i emiʻole.
ʻO Balmaceda Glacier - wehewehe
Ke iho nei ka'āpana'ākau o Balmaceda i kahi mamao mai kahi kiʻekiʻe o 2035 m. Mai laila mai ka nui o ka hau i hāʻule i ka moana. ʻO ka mea iʻikeʻia i mua o nā maka o nā mea mākaʻikaʻi he hoʻokahi hapaʻumi wale nō o ka nui o ka nui o ka'ōlepa, a ua hūnāʻia ke koena i lalo o ka wai.
Ma mua o kaʻikeʻana o nā mea mākaʻikaʻi Balmaceda, e like me kaʻokiʻana i kekahi mauna, ua hoʻopuniʻia e nāʻaoʻao a pau e nā'āpana'ōmaʻomaʻo. He pūnaewele holoʻokoʻa kēia, makemake e komo i ke kai kūʻono. ʻO ka ikaika o ka'āinaʻo Antarctica he mea nui loa ia, no ka mea ma nā wahi'ē aʻe o ka honua ma ka loka likeʻole,ʻaʻohe heiau i kaʻike.
Pehea e hele ai i ka glacier?
Hoʻomaka koke nā holo a hoʻomau i ka lā a pau, no laila, i ka hōʻeaʻana i Puerto Natales, ponoʻoe e koho i kahi hokele maikaʻi e hiki ai iāʻoe ke ho'ōki. ʻO ka pōmaikaʻi,ʻaʻole paʻakikī e hana i kēia, ua nui nā hokele o ke kūlanakauhale, nā mea likeʻole a me nā mea kūʻaiʻole.
ʻO ka lā o ka huakaʻi hele i ka glacier Balmaseda e hoʻomaka me kaʻaina kakahiaka ma ka hōkele, a ma hope o ka hoʻonohonoho muaʻana i ka marina. ʻO 4 hola ka lōʻihi o ka heleʻana, e noʻonoʻo ana e kāpae ka moku. I ke kauʻana o ka poʻe malihini kipa, ua hōʻikeʻia nā kolemu āpau a me nā wai kūkū maikaʻi. Maʻaneʻi hiki iāʻoe keʻike a hana i nā kiʻi hoʻomanaʻo o nā kolo o nā hōʻailona hulu, nā'aeho a me nā mea'ē aʻe o nā lau nahele, e koho i kahi mahana wela. I ka hōʻeaʻana i kahi hauākea, hiki iā Balmaceda ke mahalo i ka'āpana, a ma hope iho o ka manawa o ka glacier hanohanoʻole o Serrano .
ʻO ka mākaʻikaʻiʻana i ka glacier Balmaseda he mea kupaianaha loa ia e wehe ana iā Chile a pau loa mai kēlāʻaoʻao. Ma kahi o ka ulu lāʻau ulu, hoʻokipaʻia nā mea mākaʻikaʻi e nā kahawai, nā fjords a me nā kēna hau. Ke waiho wale nei ia e hiki ai keʻike i ka nani a pau o ia wahi a eʻoluʻolu i kona nui.
Pehea e hele ai i ka glacier?
ʻO ke ala e hele ai i ka glacier o Balmaceda e pili ana i ke kūlanakauhaleʻo Puerto Natales . Hoʻopukaʻia nā mea mākaʻikaʻi e ka moku ma o ka laina o Ultima Esperanza, nona ka inoa i kapaʻiaʻo "hope hope". ʻO kēlā inoaʻano paʻakikī ka inoa o ka fjord i loaʻa no ka hanohano o ka huakaʻi, a ua ho'āʻo e hele i ke ala i ka Moana Pākīpika. ʻO kaʻike i weheʻia i kēia wā holo wāwae he nani loa.
