ʻO ka waiʻo Dettifoss aia ma ka'ākau'ākau hikina o Iceland kekahi o nā nani loa a me ka hanohano loa maʻEulopa. Ke mahalo nei i nā kahawai nui, nā kahe nui o ka wai, e hāʻule ana me ka wikiwiki nui, e hele mai ana nā kaukani maikaʻi.
Eia kekahi, ua hoʻopuniʻia e nā 'āina' ākau 'ākau nani o ka'Āpana National Park o Jökülsaulglujur, e hāʻawi ana iā Dettifos i kahi meaʻono kūʻokoʻa.
Kahi a me nāʻano
ʻO Waterfall Dettifoss (Iceland), kahi kiʻi i hōʻikeʻia ma ke kiʻi o kā mākou punawai, aia ma ka muliwaiʻo Yokulsau-au-Fjödlum. Hanaʻia ia e ka waiheʻe o ka glacier Vatnayokudl . Ma lalo, ka ulu nui ka'eneke, a ua piha i ka wai mai nā kumu'ē aʻe he nui, e like me ka hoʻopiliʻana.
ʻO Deteth ka wailele nui loa maʻEulopa,ʻaʻole wale ma Iceland wale nō, ma ke awelika o kēlā me kēia manawa mai kahi pōhaku e hāʻule i 200 mau kapuaʻi wai. ʻOiai ma kekahi mau hiʻohiʻona, e like me keʻano, i ka wā e heheʻe ai ka hau a iʻole ma hope o ka ua, e piʻi kēia kiko i 500 mau mika kupita.
ʻO ke kai maʻaneʻi he meaʻoluʻolu,ʻeleʻele me ke aka o ka'ōmaʻomaʻo, a i ka manawa e hoʻonohonoho ai ka wai kahe, e lilo iʻeleʻele loa, kahi e hana ai i kaʻokoʻa kupaianaha me ka'ōpuʻu keʻokeʻo.
ʻO ke kumu o kaʻeleʻeleʻeleʻele o ka wai,ʻo ia nā naluʻeleʻele o ka'āina i lilo i mea no ka lua pele.

ʻO ka manawa hea ka manawa kūpono e hiki ai i ka wailele?
ʻO ka manawa kūpono ka hopena o ka pūnāwai a me nā malama kau wela, no ka meaʻo ia i kēlā manawa e holo ikaika loa ai nā kahe nui!
ʻAʻole hiki ke pihoihoi ka walaʻau o ka hāʻuleʻana o ka wai, a kūʻo ia ma kahi o ka wailele, uaʻike maopopoʻia keʻano o ka hiku o ka honua.
Eʻike i nā malihini maʻaneʻiʻaʻole e palekana, no ka piʻiʻana i ka piko, ma ka puʻu e hele ai ma kahi alaiki a me ka paheʻe, me ka loaʻaʻole o kahi kākoʻo no nā lima -ʻaʻohe mea e paʻa ai! A inā puhi ka makani, a laila,ʻo ka nalu nui o nā'ōpala maikaʻi e uhi i nā mea mākaʻikaʻi. No laila, no ka nānāʻana mai luna, kokoke i ka muliwai,ʻaʻole i hoʻoponoponoʻia nā mea a pau.
Pehea e hiki ai i laila?
ʻO ka Wailele Dettifoss kahi kokoke i 350 mau kilomita mai ke kapikala o ka'āinaʻo Reykjavik . Hoʻonohonohoʻia nā holo huakaʻi maʻaneʻi. Akā, ināʻaʻoleʻoe makemake e kali a kūlana paha ma kahi kaʻa kaʻa, hiki iāʻoe ke hoʻolimalima i kahi kaʻa a hele i ka wailele iāʻoe iho. A e hoʻolimalimaʻia he mau hola no ke alanui, akā,ʻo kaʻike i weheʻia iāʻoe, e ukuʻiʻo nō ia i nā lilo no ka hoʻolimalimaʻana i kahi kaʻa a me ka manawa i hoʻolimalimaʻia!
