I-Imja Tse (Island Peak)

I-Imja Tse (Isiqhingi Esiphakeme) iyingxenye yesifunda sase-Everest okungenye yezindawo ezidumile kakhulu zokuhamba ngezinyawo emhlabeni. INepal ibizwa nangokuthi izwe lamaHimalaya amakhulu. I-Imja Tse (Isiqhingi Esiphakeme) (6189m) itholakala engxenyeni esenyakatho-mpumalanga yezwe futhi ivikelwe yiSagarmatha National Park kanye neMakalu Barun National Park esifundeni saseKhumbu.

I-Imja Tse (Isiqhingi Esiphakeme) (6189m) ingenye yeziqongo ezinhle kakhulu nezidumile eKhumbu. Yaziwa nangokuthi i-Island Peak. Lesi siqongo sesiqhingi saqanjwa ngu-Eric Shipton ngo-1951 njengelungu leBritish Mount Everest Expedition ngoba sibonakala njengesiqhingi olwandle lweqhwa uma sibukwa usuka eDingboche (4410m). Lesi siqongo saqanjwa kabusha kamuva ngo-1983 saba yi-Imja Tse kodwa i-Island Peak isalokhu iyindlela ethandwayo futhi kulula ukuyibiza nokupela. Lesi siqongo empeleni siwukunwetshwa kwentaba eyehla eningizimu yentaba iLhotse Shar. I-Imja Tse isiqongo sokuqala saqalwa ngo-1956 nguHans-Rudolf Von Gunten kanye namaSherpa amabili, ababengamalungu eqembu laseSwitzerland elaqhubeka nokukhuphuka okwesibili kweNtaba i- Everest Base Camp Trek kanye nokukhuphuka kokuqala kweMt.Lhotse (8516m). I-Tenzing Norgay sherpa yayingumuntu wokuqala waseNepal okhuphuke i-Imja Tse noCharles Evans, u-Alfred Gregory, uCharles Wylie, kanye nabanye abayisikhombisa baseSherpa. Ingenye yeziqongo zokuhamba ngezinyawo ezithandwa kakhulu eNepal futhi ngenxa yobunzima bayo (i-alpine PD+) kanye nokufinyeleleka kwayo ikakhulukazi uma isekelwa umhlahlandlela we-Nepalese wokugibela i-Sherpa.

I-Imja Tse, eyaziwa nangokuthi i-Island Peak, iyintaba ethandwayo etholakala e-Himalaya yaseNepal. Iphakama ifike endaweni ephakeme ngamamitha angu-6,189 (amafidi angu-20,305) ngaphezu kwezinga lolwandle, okuyenza ibe enye yeziqongo ezifinyeleleka kakhulu nezifunwa kakhulu endaweni yase-Everest. Nawa amaphuzu abalulekile mayelana ne-Imja Tse (Island Peak):

Indawo : I-Imja Tse itholakala eSagarmatha National Park, esifundeni sase-Everest enyakatho-mpumalanga yeNepal. Iphakathi kwezigodi zaseKhumbu nase-Imja, yingakho igama layo libizwa ngokuthi “Isiqhingi Esiphakeme.”

Ubunzima Bokukhuphuka : Nakuba i-Island Peak ibhekwa njengokukhuphuka kobuchwepheshe, ifanelekela abaqwali abanolwazi lokuhamba ngezinyawo kanye namakhono ayisisekelo okukhuphuka izintaba. Ukukhuphuka kuhilela ukuhamba ngeqhwa, ukukhuphuka iqhwa okulingene kanye nokwenyuka iqhwa, kanye nokusebenzisa izintambo nama-crampon. Ngokuvamile kukhethwa njengesiqongo sokuqala sabaqwali abahlose ukuthola ulwazi lokukhuphuka izintaba ezindaweni eziphakeme.

Ikamu Eliyisisekelo : Indawo evamile yokuqala ukukhuphuka i-Imja Tse yidolobhana laseChhukung, elitholakala endaweni ephakeme ngamamitha angaba ngu-4,730 (15,518 feet). Ukusuka eChhukung, abaqwali baya e-Island Peak Base Camp, etholakala cishe ngamamitha angu-5,200 (17,060 feet), lapho bejwayela khona futhi balungiselele ukukhuphuka.

Umzila Wesiqongo : Ukukhuphuka kwe-Imja Tse kulandela indlela echazwe kahle, kuqala ngokukhuphuka okukhulu ukuya ekamu eliphakeme cishe ngamamitha angu-5,600 (amamitha angu-18,373). Ukusuka ekamu eliphakeme, abakhuphukayo bakhuphuka iqhwa bese behamba ngomqansa omncane ngaphambi kokufika esiqongweni. Ingxenye yokugcina ihilela ukukhuphuka okufushane kodwa okubonakalayo emthambekeni weqhwa ophakeme.

Ukubukwa Okumangalisayo : Isiqongo se-Imja Tse sinikeza imibono emihle kakhulu yeziqongo zaseHimalaya ezizungezile, okuhlanganisa iNtaba i-Everest (amamitha angu-8,848/29,029), i-Lhotse (amamitha angu-8,516/27,940), i-Nuptse (amamitha angu-7,861/25,791), kanye ne-Ama Dablam (amamitha angu-6,812/22,349), phakathi kwezinye.

Izidingo Zemvume : Ukukhuphuka izintaba kudinga ukuthola imvume yokukhuphuka e-Nepal Mountaineering Association (NMA) kanye nemvume yokungena eSagarmatha National Park. Ngaphezu kwalokho, abakhuphuka izintaba bavame ukuhamba nabaqondisi abanolwazi kanye nabasebenzi abasekelayo.

Isizini Yokukhuphuka : Izikhathi eziyinhloko zokukhuphuka ze-Imja Tse ziphakathi nesizini yangaphambi kwemvula (intwasahlobo) kusukela ngoMashi kuya kuMeyi kanye nesizini yangemuva kwemvula (ikwindla) kusukela ngoSepthemba kuya kuNovemba. Lezi zikhathi ngokuvamile zinikeza izimo zezulu ezizinzile kanye nesibhakabhaka esicacile, okwenza zibe zilungele imisebenzi yokukhuphuka izintaba.

Izinkinga zokugibela isiqongo sesiqhingi:

I-Climbing Island Peak (Imja Tse) ibhekwa njengenselele emaphakathi ngokobunzima bokusebenza, kodwa idinga izinga elihle lokuqina komzimba, ukujwayela okufanele, kanye namakhono ayisisekelo okuqwala izintaba. Nazi ezinye izici ezinomthelela ezingeni lobunzima lokukhuphuka i-Island Peak:

Ukuphakama : I-Island Peak iphakeme ngamamitha angu-6,189 (amamitha angu-20,305) ngaphezu kolwandle. Ezindaweni eziphakeme kangaka, abakhuphuka izintaba basengozini yezifo ezihlobene nokuphakama njenge-acute mountain sickness (AMS), i-high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE), kanye ne-high-altitude cerebral edema (HACE). Ukujwayelana kahle nokukhuphuka kancane kancane kubalulekile ukunciphisa ingozi ye-altitude sickness.

Indawo Yobuchwepheshe : Nakuba i-Island Peak ihlukaniswa njengentaba yokuhamba ngezinyawo kunokuba ibe yintaba egcwele uhambo, isabandakanya amakhono obuchwepheshe okukhuphuka. Abaqwali bahlangana neqhwa eliqongile kanye nemithambeka yeqhwa, ukuhamba ngeqhwa, kanye nezindawo ezingaba yinselele ezinezintambo eziqinile. Amakhono ayisisekelo okukhuphuka izintaba njengokusebenzisa kahle ama-crampon, i-ice ax, kanye nokuhamba okunezintambo ayadingeka.

Izimo Zezulu : Isimo sezulu e-Himalaya singaba sibi kakhulu futhi singalindelekile, ikakhulukazi ezindaweni eziphakeme. Abaqwali bezintaba e-Island Peak bangase babhekane namazinga okushisa abandayo, imimoya enamandla, kanye neqhwa, okungathinta kakhulu izimo zokukhuphuka kanye nokuphepha. Ukukhetha isizini efanele yokukhuphuka kanye nokulungiselela isimo sezulu esishintshayo kubalulekile.

Izidingo Zomzimba : Ukukhuphuka iSiqhingi Sesiqhingi kudinga izinga elihle lokuqina ngokomzimba kanye nokukhuthazela. Abakhuphukayo kumele bakwazi ukuhamba ngezinyawo izinsuku eziningana ezindaweni eziphakeme ngenkathi bephethe isikhwama semali esinezimpahla ezibalulekile kanye nemishini. Ukukhuphukela esiqongweni kuhilela izinsuku ezinde zokukhuphuka, ngokuvamile kuqala ngaphambi kokusa ukuze ufike esiqongweni bese wehla ngaphambi kokuba isimo sezulu esibi siqale.

Izinto Zobuchwepheshe Nemishini : Abaqwali kudingeka babe nezinto ezifanele zokugibela izintaba, okuhlanganisa ama-crampon, ama-ice axes, ama-harnesses, izigqoko zokuzivikela, nezingubo ezifanele izimo ezibandayo nezinomoya. Izinto zobuchwepheshe nezingubo ezifanele kubalulekile ukuze kuphephe futhi kududuzeke ngesikhathi sokukhuphuka.

Uhambo Oluqondiswayo : Abaqwali abaningi bakhetha ukujoyina uhambo oluqondiswayo oluholwa abaqondisi bezintaba abanolwazi kanye nabasebenzi abasekelayo. Nakuba lokhu kungathuthukisa ukuphepha futhi kunikeze ukwesekwa kwezokuthutha, abaqwali kufanele basalungele izinselele zomzimba nezobuchwepheshe zokunyuka.

Sekukonke, nakuba i-Island Peak ithathwa njengenjongo engenzeka yabaqwali abanolwazi oluthile lokuqwala izintaba nokuqwala izintaba, kubalulekile ukusondela umqansa ngenhlonipho ngezinselele zakhona futhi uzilungiselele ngokwanele ngokomzimba nangokwengqondo. Ukuqeqeshwa okufanele, ukujwayela, kanye nokubambelela ezimisweni zokuphepha kubalulekile ekukhuphukeni okuyimpumelelo nokujabulisayo kwe-Island Peak.
