Pakati pa malo ambiri osangalatsa padziko lapansi, Alaska ndiyodziwika bwino, gawo lina lomwe lili pamwamba pa Arctic Circle ndipo limadziwika ndi mikhalidwe yovuta ya moyo komanso kukhala kosavuta m'derali. Kwa nthawi yayitali, anthu okhala mdzikolo anali mitundu yakomweko, komanso nyama zambiri zakutchire.
Mount McKinley - chizindikiro cha Alaska ndi United States
Phirili lili kutsidya la Arctic Circle ndipo ndilopamwamba kwambiri kumtunda, koma pafupifupi palibe amene adadziwa za izi kwanthawi yayitali, chifukwa ndi anthu okhawo amtundu wa Athabaskan, omwe mwamwambo amakhala mozungulira icho, amatha kuwonera. M'chilankhulo chakomweko, adalandira dzina loti Denali, lomwe limatanthauza "Wamkulu".
Tiyeni tiwone komwe kuli Alaska kumtunda. Kuyang'anitsitsa dziko lapansi kapena mapu apadziko lonse lapansi kukuwonetsa kuti iyi ndi North America, yomwe yambiri ili ndi United States of America. Lero ndi amodzi mwa mayiko aboma lino. Koma sizinali choncho nthawi zonse. Dzikoli poyamba linali la Russia, ndipo nzika zoyamba zaku Russia zidatcha nsonga ziwiri - Bolshaya Gora. Pamwamba pali chipale chofewa, chomwe chikuwoneka bwino pachithunzichi.
Woyamba kuyika phiri la McKinley pamapu anali wolamulira wamkulu wa midzi yaku Russia ku America, yemwe adalemba izi kuyambira 1830 kwa zaka zisanu, Ferdinand Wrangel, yemwe anali wasayansi wodziwika bwino komanso woyendetsa sitima. Masiku ano, malo omwe ali pamwamba pake amadziwika bwino. Latitude ndi longitude ndi: 63o 07 'N, 151o 01 'W.
Kumapeto kwa zaka za zana la 19, ku Alaska, komwe kwakhala gawo laku United States, sikisi sikisi, adatchulidwa pambuyo pa Purezidenti wa 25 wa dzikolo - McKinley. Komabe, dzina lakale loti Denali silinagwiritsidwe ntchito ndipo likugwiritsidwa ntchito masiku ano limodzi ndi lomwe limalandiridwa. Phiri limeneli limatchedwanso Phiri la Presidential.
Funso lomwe lili pamsonkhano waukulu womwe uli ndi mitu iwiri lingayankhidwe bwino - kumpoto. Mapiri a polar amayenda m'mbali mwa nyanja ya Arctic kwa makilomita ambiri. Koma malo okwera kwambiri ndi Phiri la Denali. Kutalika kwake kwathunthu ndi 6194 mita, ndipo ndiye wokwera kwambiri ku North America.
Kukonda mapiri
Kwa nthawi yayitali phiri la McKinley lakhala likukopa alendo ambiri okonda kukwera mapiri komanso okonda kukwera mapiri. Kukwera koyamba komwe kumadziwika kunapangidwa mu 1913 ndi wansembe Hudson Stack. Kuyesanso kotsatira kuti agonjetse pachimake kunachitika mu 1932 ndipo kunatha pomwalira mamembala awiri aulendowu.
Tsoka ilo, adawulula mndandanda wautali wa omwe adazunzidwa chifukwa chokwera kwambiri. Masiku ano, zikwizikwi za okwera mapiri akufuna kuyesa dzanja lawo kuti agonjetse phiri lalitali kwambiri. Pali ambiri okwera ku Russia pakati pawo.
Zovuta zimayamba kale pagawo lokonzekera, chifukwa ndizovuta kubweretsa chakudya ndi zida ku Alaska kwathunthu. Ambiri mwa omwe akukwerawa amatumizidwa ku Anchorage ndipo ndege zimapereka zida ndi omwe akutenga nawo mbali m'munsi mwa phirilo pamisasa.
Tikukulangizani kuti muwerenge za Mount Everest.
Pakukula, njira zokwanira zamavuto osiyanasiyana zayikidwa kale. Alendo ambiri akumapiri amakwera njira yosavuta kwambiri - dera lakumadzulo. Pa nthawi yomweyo, munthu ayenera kuthana ndi madzi oundana otsekedwa, pomwe palibe ming'alu yowopsa.
Kutsika kwa magawo ena kumafika madigiri makumi anayi ndi asanu, koma ambiri, njirayo ndiyothamanga komanso yotetezeka. Nthawi yabwino yogonjetsera msonkhanowu ndi kuyambira Meyi mpaka Julayi nthawi yotentha. Nthawi yonseyi nyengo zakunyengo sizisintha komanso ndizovuta. Komabe, kuchuluka kwa iwo omwe akufuna kulanda Phiri la McKinley sikukucheperako, ndipo kwa ambiri kukwera kumeneku ndiko koyambira kogonjetsa nsonga zazitali kwambiri zadziko lapansi.
Phunziro lowopsa pangozi yakusewera ndi chilengedwe ndi nkhani ya wokwera phiri waku Japan a Naomi Uemura. Pa ntchito yake yokonza mapiri, iye, pawokha kapena ngati gulu, adakwera mapiri ambiri padziko lapansi. Anayesetsa kuti afike ku North Pole pawokha, komanso anali kukonzekera kukalanda nsonga yayitali kwambiri ku Antarctica. Mount McKinley amayenera kuti azichita zolimbitsa thupi asanapite ku Antarctica.
Naomi Uemura adapanga nyengo yozizira, yovuta kwambiri, kukwera pamwamba ndikufikira, ndikubzala mbendera yaku Japan pa February 12, 1984. Komabe, tsikulo, adakumana ndi nyengo zoyipa ndipo kulumikizana naye kudasokonekera. Maulendo opulumutsa sanapeze mtembo wake, womwe mwina udasesedwa ndi chisanu kapena kugwidwa mumng'alu wina waukulu.
