Kubantu abathanda impilo yomzimba [phakamisa isandla], i-2020- kunye nokuvalwa kwayo kwindawo yokuzivocavoca ngenxa yobhubhane we-COVID-19-yayingunyaka ozaliswe lutshintsho olukhulu kwiindlela zokuzilolonga.

Ngelixa abanye abantu bathambekele kwiiklasi zokuzilolonga kwi-intanethi kunye nabahlohli ababathandayo kwaye bakha ii-gyms zasekhaya zamaphupha, abanye abaninzi bathatha ukuzilolonga kwabo ngaphandle. Idatha evela kuMbutho woShishino lwaNgaphandle iveze ukuba abantu bathontelana ukuya ngaphandle ngamanani arekhodiweyo kulo nyaka uphelileyo, bekhangela indlela ekude ekuhlaleni yokuzilolonga. Uninzi lwezi zinto zintsha zokuhamba ngaphandle yayingamabhinqa, zingaphantsi kweminyaka engama-45, kwaye zihlala kwindawo yasezidolophini, ngokwengxelo ye-OIA.

Ngaphezu koko, idatha evela kwi-app yangaphandle ye-AllTrails (yasimahla ye-iOS kunye ne-Android) kunye ne-RunRepeat, isiseko sedatha sokuphonononga izihlangu, ibonisa ukuba inani labakhweli abahamba bodwa liye lanyuka phantse i-135 yeepesenti ngo-2020 xa kuthelekiswa no-2019.

Ukuba kuyenzeka ukuba nihlalisane okanye nibambisene nohlobo lukaPaul Bunyan, ukuya kwindalo kunokubonakala ngathi ngomnye nje umsebenzi wempelaveki, kodwa ukuba awudibananga okanye ungumntu oqalayo ukuya ngaphandle, ingcinga yokuhamba wedwa entlango isenokuthi. ube yingcinga ekhwankqisayo- kunye nefolishi yemiboniso bhanyabhanya eyoyikisayo engapheliyo: Kuthekani ukuba ndinyanzelwa ukuba ndilahle phantsi nebhere likamama kwi-Leo e Umnqophiso? Kuthekani ukuba ndiyaphela njengoReese Witherspoon kwi Ndalo kwaye uhlangane nabazingeli abathile, abazingeli abazalwe befuna ukundibulala? Mhlawumbi? Hayi. Heck ewe.

Kodwa musa ukuvumela imithambo-luvo yakho ingene kwindlela yoluphi uhlobo. UGaby Pilson, isikhokelo sentaba esinamava kunye notitshala ongaphandle weZangaphandle, iziko elikwi-Intanethi lemfundo yangaphandle, uthi ngelixa olo loyiko luqondakala, alusoloko lusekwe kwinyani.

"Uloyiko oluninzi abanalo abantu basetyhini malunga nokuhamba wedwa solo lubangelwa luxinzelelo lwasentlalweni kunye nemikhwa, endaweni yolwazi oluchanekileyo malunga namathuba okonzakala okanye ukuhlaselwa xa usentlango," ucacisa uPilson. Umzekelo, iYellowstone National Park inika ingxelo yokuba ukudibana neengozi kweebhere kwenzeka kwisihlandlo esinye kwizigidi ezi-2.7 zokutyelela kule paki.

U-Pilson wongezelela ukuba, ngelixa kungekho datha yelizwe malunga nolwaphulo-mthetho olwenziwa ngabakhweli ababhinqileyo ngokukodwa, izibalo zibonisa ukuba umngcipheko wokuba lixhoba lolwaphulo-mthetho olunobundlobongela ungaphantsi kakhulu kunoko ukhoyo kwindawo engeyiyo yasentlango, kungakhathaliseki isini. Umzekelo, idatha evela kwi-Pacific Field Office yeCandelo loPhando lweeNkonzo ibonisa ukuba ungamaxesha angama-19 ngakumbi ukuba ube lixhoba lolwaphulo-mthetho lokuhlaselwa ngokwesondo eLos Angeles County (yikes) kunakwenye yeePaki zeSizwe ezingama-76. kwisiqingatha esentshona selizwe.

Ngelixa kukho umngcipheko othile wokufuna ukunyuka wedwa (ngakumbi kwindawo yokubuyela umva okanye kwindawo enobuqhophololo okanye imozulu) okoko nje uzilungiselele (ngakumbi kule ingezantsi), kuninzi onokukufumana kumava aya kuthi khuthaza ukuba uye kuyo.

Ngabantu abaninzi ababetha iindledlana kunanini na ngaphambili, ukuba ububhenela kubude obuphakathi, obuphakathi, iindlela ezixineneyo (kwaye ngoku zixinene) kangangexesha elithile, kuyindalo ukuqala ukunqwenela. Kaninzi. Kwaye ngezitofu zokugonya ezisebenza ngokupheleleyo kunye nemozulu eshushu efikileyo, akukaze kubekho xesha lingcono lokuseta izinto ozibonayo kwiindlela ezinde okanye ezinobunzima onokuthi uzityumze uwedwa.

Ukuze ulungele i-adventure yakho elandelayo, jonga nzulu kuzo zonke izibonelelo zokuhamba wedwa-kunye neengcebiso malunga nendlela yokwenza ngokukhuselekileyo.

IziBonelelo zokuHamba ngeSolo, ngokutsho kwabo bayenzileyo

Ukubetha iindlela nabahlobo kunye nosapho kunokubonelela ngemeko enoxolo yokubambisa okanye ixesha elisemgangathweni, kodwa ukuphuma wedwa kunika izibonelelo zakho ezizodwa, utshilo uJanel Jensen, umphathi wenkqubo yeAdventure Travel yeREI. Ngokwamalungiselelo, "ungahamba ngesantya sakho kwaye ungaziva uxinzelelo lokuqhubeka okanye ulinde abanye," utshilo uJensen. Kodwa ngokulinganisa, ukuhamba wedwa "kukunika amathuba amaninzi okufunda ngawe kunye nokonwabela ngaphandle."

Ngaphezu koko, “[ukuhamba intaba wedwa njengowasetyhini] kunokunceda ukubonelela ngokuzanelisa,” wongezelela uPilson. "Ungaziva uqinisekile ngokwakho ukujongana nemiceli mngeni, ngaphandle kokunyanzelwa ukuba uzive ngathi ufuna umntu oza kukuxhasa." (Idibeneyo: Ezi zibonelelo zokuHamba ziya kukwenza ufune ukubetha iindlela)

Ngoko ke, yintoni eyenza a enkulu ukunyuka? Nangona oko kuhla kuthuthuzeleko lomntu kunye namava (umkhweli wentaba onamava unokucinga ngocelomngeni lwe-14er ngelixa umntu omtsha ngokupheleleyo ekunyukeni unokujonga nantoni na ekwindlela egangathiweyo, ethe tyaba njengomgangatho wokunyuka), ukujonga uphononongo lwabakhenkethi abadlulileyo kunokuba yinto elungileyo. indlela yokulinganisa ubungakanani, amanqaku uPilson. Iiapps ezinje ngeAllTrails kunye neGaia (yasimahla ye-IOS kunye ne-Android) zahlula iindlela ngobunzima (ngokulula, ngokuphakathi, nzima), ukuphakama kunye nobude. Ke, ukuba ugqibe kuphela uhambo "olulula", ukujolisa kwinto ethe kratya (ngobude okanye ekuthambekeni) kunokuba yeyona nto ukubheja kwakho. Ngokufanayo, ukuba unesithukuthezi ngeendlela ezimodareyitha, iimayile ezininzi, into "enkulu" inokuba ilandelela uhambo lwakho lokuqala "olunzima" lokuhamba yedwa.

Oko kuthethiweyo, nokuba uwela phi na kwisikali samava njengomntu ohamba ngaphandle, nawuphi na umkhondo ongaphaya kwendawo yakho yentuthuzelo yangoku unokukubonisa ngenani leengozi ezintsha - ukusuka kumadyunguza enkosi ukuya kumgama owongezelelweyo kunye / okanye umhlaba onzima ukuya. kuba ungaphandle kwegridi de ulahlekelwe yinkonzo yeseli. Ngaphambi kokuba uhambe wedwa, ukuqonda indlela yokulungiselela loo miqobo kubalulekile, zombini ukhuseleko lwakho kunye nokuzonwabisa.

Apha, uPilson, uJensen, kunye nezinye iingcaphephe zangaphandle babelana ngeengcebiso zabo zokulungiselela uhambo lwakho lokuqala olukhulu lokuhamba wedwa.

1. Joyina iQela lokuHamba intaba kuqala

Jonga - intlango inokuba yindawo engathandekiyo ukuba awunamava kwaye uwedwa.Kodwa ukuba uthatha uhambo kunye nabahambi ababhinqileyo kuqala, kukho ithuba elikhulu lokuba uya kuzithemba kwaye uzilungiselele ngelixa uphuma wedwa.

Ingcebiso ephezulu kaPilsonkubaqalayo bokwenene? Joyina iqela lababhinqileyo lokukhwela intaba. "Ukuba umtsha kukukhwela intaba, ukujoyina amaqela okuhamba intaba, izifundo zoqeqesho, okanye utyelelo kunokuba yindlela elungileyo yokwakha ezi zakhono kwimeko yenkxaso." Ezi zakhono zinokubandakanya iingcebiso zokuhamba, ukuba wenzeni xa wenzakele okanye udibane nezilwanyana zasendle, kunye neengcebiso zokuthenga izixhobo ezifanelekileyo zangaphandle. Ambalwa amaqela akhe awathandayo: I-Wild Women Expeditions (elungelelanisa ukunyuka okukhokelwayo ngokukodwa kwabasetyhini kwihlabathi liphela) kunye ne-NOLS (isikolo esingenzi nzuzo kwihlabathi eliyintlango elijolise kwiiklasi zezakhono zangaphandle zabafazi kunye ne-LGBTQ + yabantu abadala nolutsha). Iindawo ezinje ngeMeetup.com zikwabonelela ngamaqela okuhamba ngenyawo (amanye awabafazi ngokukodwa) anokulungiswa kwindawo yakho. (Ngakumbi apha: Uhambo lwangaphandle lwe-Adventure oluyiyo nantoni na kodwa luyaphumla)

2. Yakha ukunyuka okukhulu

Ngaphambi kokuba uqalise umzila omkhulu, othe qelele (uyazi, apho kungekho mntu unokunyaka ukhwaza - udlala!) Jensen.

Ngelixa lifutshane, iindlela ezingamathambeka amancinci azinakukuchaza ukunyuka okufanelekileyo, ziyimfuneko yokuba kufuneka ube nenjongo ende okanye enzima kakhulu yokuhamba wedwa, utshilo uJensen. "Zama iindlela ezimbalwa ezimfutshane, ezithandwayo ezikufutshane okanye, yiya kwi-pseudo solo hike ngokuqala ngomhlobo, kodwa ugcine umgama wakho kwindlela," utshilo.

Ukusuka apho, ungasebenza indlela yakho ukuya kwiindlela ezinzima ngakumbi ngeenzuzo ezinkulu zokuphakama, njengoko uziva ukhululekile. Iinkqubo zokuhambahamba ezinje ngeAllTrails zivumela abasebenzisi ukuba bacofe ukukhangela iindawo ezinyukayo ngendawo, ubungqongqo, imayile, kunye nokuzuza kokuphakama. NgeAllTrails, unokuhluza uphononongo lwabasebenzisi - olunokuba luncedo kakhulu ukuba ulumkele umkhondo ongaqhelekanga.

3. Khetha iSolo Trail yakho

Nangona kungekho mthetho ulukhuni malunga nokuba ungaphi uhambo olonyukayo ekufuneka ulwenzile ulungiselela uhambo olukhulu, uPilson unika lo mthetho ubhontsi: "Qonda inqanaba lakho lomzimba kwaye ukhethe umkhondo nge-mileage kunye ne-elevation inzuzo okanye ilahleko yazi ungaphumelela, utshilo.

Kwakhona, zibuze: Ngaba ungalugqiba unyuko ngexesha olabiweyo? Gcina ukhumbula ukuba uhambo olufuna ukukhempisha ubusuku bonke lumdlalo webhola owahluke ngokupheleleyo kokubini uqeqesho- kunye nobulumko-nobulumko-kwaye kunokuba ngcono ukuba ungakwenzi kuhambo lwakho lokuqala. Ezinye ii-apps (kuquka i-AllTrails) zibonelela ngophawu oluvumela abasebenzisi ukuba babone ushicilelo lwe-GPS lwabanye abakhweli bendlela, equka ixesha elibathathileyo ukugqiba umzila, ubungakanani bokuphakama abawufumeneyo, kunye nesantya esiphakathi kwabo. Unokusebenzisa ezi ukukunceda ukuba uqikelele ukuba kuya kuthatha ixesha elingakanani ukugqiba umzila, naye.

Uya kufuna kwakhona ukugcina indawo engqondweni xa ukhetha ukunyuka, wongeza uJensen, ogxininisa ukuba "ungaze uzame i-solo yezobugcisa. Ezi zenziwa kakuhle ngamaqela okanye, bhetele, kunye nesikhokelo." Yintoni efaneleka njenge zobugcisa? Cinga: nantoni na onokuyidinga izixhobo ezizodwa, ezinje ngezihlangu eziyilelwe ukuhamba umkhenkce nekhephu, okanye iintambo kunye neepleyi ukunyuka amawa.

Nangona uhambo lwakho olufanelekileyo lusenokungabandakanyi inkitha yabanye abakhenkethi ecaleni kwakho - kubizwa ngokuba kukuhamba wedwa ngesizathu - uPilson uthi, kuhambo lwakho lokuqala olukhulu uwedwa, kungangcono ukhethe umzila odumileyo apho ungekho abanye abantu. iimayile kude.

Owu, kwaye ungalibali enye yokugqibela yokugqibela: imozulu. Ngamanye amazwi, musa ukukhetha uhambo olunomthunzi omncinci ehlotyeni okanye ithuba lokuwa kwekhephu ebusika, njengoko imozulu embi inokwandisa amathuba okwenzakala okanye ukugula.

4. Yiba Nesixhobo Esifanelekileyo

Emva kokukhetha uhambo lwakho olugqibeleleyo, konke okuseleyo kukupakisha ibhegi yakho kwaye ubethe iindlela. Kwaye ngelixa into ekuloo bhegi ixhomekeke kuhlobo lokunyuka okwenzayo, kukho izinto ekufuneka ube nazo kuyo nayiphi na ipakethi, ngokutsho kukaJensen. Ezi ziquka i-first-aid kid, izinto eziza kukunceda ukhululeke ngakumbi kwiimeko (oko kukuthi izifudumezi zezandla zokubanda, i-sunscreen kunye ne-bug repellent kwiindawo ezifudumele), kunye nendlela yokunxibelelana nehlabathi langaphandle. (Eyeleleneyo: IziXhobo zoBuchwephesha obuPhezulu bokuHamba kwakho okulandelayo kunye nohambo lokukhempisha)

Utyalo-mali kwisixhobo sonxibelelwano esineendlela ezimbini, ezinje ngeGarmin inReach Mini GPS Satellite Communicator (Yithenge, $319, amazon.com) kukuthenga okuyimfuneko kuyo nayiphi na inqwelomoya eyedwa njengoko ungasoloko ungaphakathi koluhlu lwenkonzo yeeseli, utshilo uPilson. . “[Inokunxibelelana] ne-smartphone yakho, ukuze ukwazi ukuthumela umyalezo kusapho nabahlobo usebenzisa itekhnoloji yesathelayithi ngexesha lokuhamba kwakho,” uyacacisa. Olunye ukhetho olunamaxabiso aphantsi: i-goTenna Mesh yokubhaliweyo kunye neNdawo yokuThetha ngeNdawo (Yithenge, $ 179, amazon.com), ethi idityaniswe neselfowuni ukukuvumela ukuba uthumele imibhalo kunye neefowuni xa i-WiFi inqabile. Ukongeza kwisixhobo sonxibelelwano, qiniseka ukuxelela umntu ngqo ukuba uyaphi kwaye nini.

Ezinye izinto ezimbalwa oza kufuna ukuzicwangcisela:

• Ubhaka wokuHamba: “Xa ukhetha ukuba uza kuthwala malini, ukomelela kwakho kunye noqeqesho yeyona nto ibalulekileyo,” uMichael O'Shea, Ph.D kunye nomthandi wangaphandle, ngaphambili uxelele Ubume. “Kufuneka uzame. Qala ngepakethe ekhaphukhaphu (20 ukuya kwi-25 pounds) kwaye uhambe ngeyure, ubone indlela ovakalelwa ngayo. Ungafumanisa ukuba unokuthatha ngaphezulu, okanye ufumane umda wakho. ”
• Izihlangu: “Eyona ndlela ilungileyo yokufumana ibhuthi efanelekileyo yokuhamba kukuya evenkileni kwaye uzame ngeebhutsi ezahlukeneyo,” kuchaza uPilson.. "Nangona kunokubonakala kulula ukuthenga iibhutsi kwi-intanethi, ukwenza oko kusebenza kuphela ukuba sele uqhelana nokulinganisa kunye nokulungelelaniswa komenzi we-boot. Ngaphezu koko, abathengisi abaninzi abancinci bangaphandle baye banamava abasebenzi abanokukunceda ukuba ufumane iibhutsi ezifanelekileyo." Qwalasela izihlangu ezibalekayo okanye izihlangu zokuhamba ezixubeneyo ngokuxhomekeke kumhlaba owulindeleyo. (Kufutshane, uhambo olumcaba kwixesha elizayo, usenokuthimba iimbadada zokuhamba.) Cinga ngokuthenga ibhuthi yakho yokuhamba okanye isihlangu ozikhethayo ezimbalwa. kwiinyanga eziphambi kohambo lwakho wedwa ukuze uziqhekeze kwiindlela ezikufutshane.
• Iikawusi: "Abantu bahlala bethetha ngokhuseleko lweebhutsi zabo kwaye balibale ukuba iikawusi zinokunika ukhuseleko olukhulu olwakhelwe ngaphakathi," utshilo uSuzanne Fuchs, D.P.M, ugqirha weenyawo kunye noqhaqho lwamaqatha ePalm Beach, eFlorida. Ubume. Umgaqo wakho wokuqala kwiikawusi ezihamba phambili zokuhamba? Hlala kude nekotoni, njengoko izinto zinokubamba ukufuma kwaye zikhokelele kwiiblisters. Endaweni yoko, khetha ukunyuka kweekawusi ngoboya be-merino, obuya kunceda ukulawula iqondo lobushushu lonyawo lwakho kwaye kukugcine upholile kubushushu obugqithisileyo nakwishushu kwimozulu ebandayo, utshilo uFuchs. Owu, kwaye upakishe iperi eyongezelelweyo nje ukuba kunokwenzeka. (Ngaphezulu apha: Iikawusi ezihamba phambili zokuHamba ngazo zonke iindidi zeTrek)
• Iileya ezongezelelweyo: "Ubuncinci, bonke abahambi kufuneka beze nejacket yemvula, isethi yeebhulukhwe zemvula, kunye nebhatyi enye ukuya kwezimbini ezifudumeleyo, nje ukuba imozulu ijika ibe muncu," kusho uJensen. Into ebalulekileyo kukuba ufumane iimpahla ezifanelekileyo kwaye zanele ngokwaneleyo kwiimfuno zakho. Impahla yenayiloni kunye ne-spandex, umzekelo, i-fume-wicking kunye nekhaphukhaphu, ikuvumela ukuba uhambe kakuhle ngeentsuku ezishushu, ezinomdaka. Uboya, kwelinye icala, bomelele kakhulu kwaye buyakwazi ukubamba ubushushu, bube luncedo njengomaleko wesiseko xa amaqondo obushushu ehla.
• Amanzi kunye nokutya okulula: Cwangcisa ukutya okutyiwayo rhoqo emva kwemizuzu engama-60 ukuya kwengama-90 ngelixa usendleleni, u-Aaron Owens Mayhew, MS, RDN, CD, ingcaphephe yokucwangcisa ukutya emva kwe-Backcountry Foodie, uxelelwe ngaphambili. Ubume. "Umhambi unokubeka emngciphekweni wokutsha kwiivenkile zabo ze-glycogen - aka ukubetha eludongeni okanye 'ukubhonca' - kwiyure enye ukuya kwezintathu zokunyuka intaba ukuba umzimba awufakwanga ngokwaneleyo," uyacacisa. (Jonga uluhlu lweyona ndawo intle yokutya okutyayo ukuze upakishe nokuba ungahamba umgama ongakanani.)
• Izixhobo zokhuseleko: "Njengomgaqo jikelele, nabani na ohamba kwilizwe leebhere kufuneka abe netoti ye-bear (Buy It, iSABER Frontiersman Bear Spray, i- $ 30, amazon.com) ifumaneke ngalo lonke ixesha," utshilo uPilson. Khusela ubomi obuNcinci boNcedo lokuQala, i-$ 14, i-amazon.com) nayo ayinakuxoxisana, kwaye kufuneka iqulethe, ubuncinci, i-bandages kunye ne-gauze, i-towelettes ye-antiseptic, i-blank blanket, i-tourniquet, kunye nezikhonkwane zokhuseleko, uthi u-Jensen. Ngelixa uxabisa kancinci, i-VSSL yoNcedo lokuQala (Yithenge, $ 130, amazon.com) ingena kwipakethi yakho ngokulula kwaye iqulethe isibane se-LED kwelinye icala.

5. Yazi ukuba Unako Ukwenza Oku

Ngelixa ukuthatha amanyathelo ayimfuneko ukulungiselela uhambo olukhulu lokuhamba nge-solo kubalulekile, eyona nto ibaluleke kakhulu ekonwabeleni uhambo lwakho (kunye nokuzigcina ukhuselekile) ibilisa kwinto enye, utshilo uPilson. Ukuzithemba. "Zininzi iingcinezelo zoluntu ezixelela abantu basetyhini ukuba abanako ukwenza izinto ezifana nokunyuka intaba bodwa," utshilo. "Ukwakha ukuzithemba kwakho ngolwazi kuya kuba yinto ephambili."

Emva kwayo yonke loo nto, sele uyenzile inzima: Uwuqeqeshile umzimba wakho, walungiselela izixhobo zakho, kwaye wenza iyelenqe lekhosi yakho. Ulungele ukutyumza ezinye iintaba ngokukhuselekileyo nangebhongo. Okwangoku, yazi ukuba ukunyuka okumodareyitha okungafuneki ukuba usuku lonke kunye nokukwazi ukuthwala isitshizi kusisantya sakho, usenokufumana zonke izibonelelo zangaphandle kwendlela yakho!

Kwaye malunga nombono wokuba unokuba ukude kakhulu kwindlela yokunyuka intaba kangangokuba kungabikho mntu unokukuva ukhwaza ukuba umbulali wezembe uyatsiba ematyholweni, zama ungakhathazeki kakhulu, utshilo uPilson. "Ngokwenyani, okukhona usiya kwindawo ehamba phambili, kuya kuncipha ukuba abantu abasendleleni bafuna ukwenza nantoni na ngaphandle kokonwabela iintaba ngoxolo."

Uphengululo lwe
