The helicopter landed slowly!
The building in front looks pretty beautiful. It should be the hotel everyone wants to stay in today!
As the plane gradually landed steadily on the helipad, He Jun "crashed" and pushed open the helicopter hatch!
Zhao Feng followed, slightly bowed his head and walked out of the apron quickly!
Behind them, ye xiner and Yang Zixin followed one after another!
After he Jianguo got off the plane, he asked gairis to communicate with the hotel!
This hotel called central Paris was booked before!
The reason for booking this hotel is entirely because the hotel has a good environment and has a good reputation in the Zambian Chinese circle!
In addition, the hotel is large enough. Although it is in Moxi town on Kilimanjaro Mountain, the garden of the hotel is already on the edge of the town. If there is any emergency, you can evacuate in time!
Zhao Feng and his party asked for three villas because they had more than 30 people!
The cost of cleaning and drinks included in the cost of each villa is 800 US dollars, and drinks are extra!
This price should also be second to none in Moxi town!
With this environment, it's OK!
It's almost noon now!
Zhao Feng and his party simply ate something in the hotel to replenish their physical strength!
Then change the climbing equipment and prepare to climb the mountain first!
All the people present are young people with enough physical strength. If you don't climb up to see the scenery, it's a failure!
So Zhao Feng and his party then took the bus to leave the hotel and walked along the road towards the mountain!
Rao Shi has just seen this mountain in the sky!
But now standing on the ground, I feel more shocked in my heart!
In fact, Kilimanjaro Mountain is located on the African plateau, and there are no peaks around. Only Kilimanjaro Mountain itself towers abruptly on the great plateau.
This is very unique!
Because, like the highest peaks on several other continents in the world, they directly form the backbone of a series of mountains, or stand near the ridge line, and many peaks in the same mountain system, or close to each other, or in the distance, the overall outline is huge and continuous.
On the left, Kilimanjaro Mountain is only adjacent to the East African Rift Valley, the largest "Scar" on the earth running from north to south, and there is no mountain system at all. It simply stands alone in an area of dozens of kilometers (the perimeter of the mountain base is 72 kilometers and the width is 56 kilometers).
Therefore, with this unique scenery, Zhao Feng felt that today's trip was not in vain!
It's only a few hundred meters to climb up from the town!
The fall of this section of the journey is not high, so we still have strength to get up!
When Zhao Feng and his party climbed up, they suddenly found that there were many buildings on this flat land, and the builders also hung the names of many mountaineering companies!
In addition, there are many stalls here, which provide some supplementary equipment for climbers!
After seeing these, Zhao Feng subconsciously looked at he Jianguo!
He Jianguo immediately understood, Explained: "This is also the last advance base before mountaineering, so many people add some equipment here. In addition, auxiliary personnel are necessary for mountaineering! We currently have about 20 people, so we need to carry food for more than 20 people for more than a week! According to the mountaineering regulations, the weight of each person cannot exceed 15kg! So we still need to If we hire some porters and chefs, we shouldn't need them, but we still need a guide! "
He Jianguo obviously worked hard before!
Zhao Feng nodded knowingly when he Jianguo said so!
Soon, he Jianguo found a company. After confirming the cooperation intention, he finally hired 23 porters and a guide. The other party also wanted to sell chefs, but Zhao Feng refused!
After a simple hour of preparation!
Together with the porter and guide, the group formed a larger team and headed for the mountain!
Among these porters and guides, everyone is paid 200 dollars a day. In addition, the company is responsible for tips. Of course, if Zhao Feng and his party are willing to give them some tips on the road, the company will not stop them!
The climbing route of all candidates is Malan Valley route. This route is the longest, but it is also the most gentle and safe route. It is not difficult. Generally, it can be completed in about three days!
Zhao Feng really didn't expect that mountain climbing was such a huge project!
Fortunately, some steps have been built in this section of the road!
In fact, only Malan estimates that some roads have been built in the first half of the line. After all, the terrain is safe, and it's not good to build roads!
On the way to climb the mountain, Zhao Feng also specially asked he Jianguo about the ticket fee for climbing the mountain!
Before, Zhao Feng heard a sentence in the front camp, which seemed to be more than 800 dollars!
If this is converted, this team of more than 40 people will cost more than 30000 US dollars!
He Jianguo didn't want to hide it. Hearing Zhao Feng's question, he said directly: "it's really more than 800 dollars, 820 dollars a person, but it's not too expensive among the tickets for all the peaks in the world!"
Zhao Feng heard the speech and nodded slightly!
Looking up at the mountain in front of him, Zhao Feng was full of fighting spirit!
Since they all came and didn't climb up, Zhao Feng felt that he failed to live up to the money spent!
Cough, although the money is nothing to Zhao Feng!
Kilimanjaro Mountain has two main peaks, one is Kibo and the other is mavenzi. Looking hazy from a distance, it seems to be painted with a mysterious atmosphere, so the Arabs once called them erratic and inaccessible fairy mountains.
Kilimanjaro foothills are hot all year round, and the maximum temperature can reach 59 ℃. However, at the peak, the temperature is often minus 34 ℃, covered with ice and snow all year round and Howling cold wind. Therefore, it is also known as "equatorial snow peak". Usually, the mountains are shrouded in clouds, unpredictable, magnificent and magnificent, giving people a sense of uncertainty and mystery. When the clouds dissipate, the icy and jade peak presents a colorful and dazzling natural scenery under the equatorial sun.
"Kilimanjaro" means "dazzling mountain" in Swahili, that is, "mountain of light"; Kibo means "black and white" in Chaga, because the snow and black rocks on the mountain are intertwined to form a magnificent picture; The word "mawenqi" means "rupture" in Chaga because its peak is composed of four or five canine shaped peaks, which are steep and straight, opposite the circular Kibo peak.
On the way, the guide specially introduced the situation of the mountain to Zhao Feng and his party!
Zhao Feng and his party really feel that the climate is quite hot. Now it is surrounded by tropical rain forests!
Hope to arrive at the next camp as soon as possible to have a rest!
