Funny stones and the jolly water.

Ice bathing in « a bath of a youth » from which you take off with shout: « Invigorates, your mother! », experimental descent(release) from mountain Takja-Tepe and unforgettable rise on chatyr-сбъ on mozhzhevelovym to bushes - here is three brightest memoirs on a hike(trekking tour) « Water and Stones » on August, 30th - on September, 4th, 2009.

About duration of trekking tours

I shall not extend much about majestic Crimean landscapes which open from tops of mountains, also I shall not begin pochasovo to describe six-day travel - the list of the seen beauty can be found in corresponding(meeting) section of this site. I shall tell only, that for morning of last day, behind a cup of morning tea, I had a question, why hikes(trekking tours) such short. Our conductor Andrey Gipich all over again has told something of type: « Just right, that has not had time to bother », and has then thought and has added: « And in fact, know, you - the first group which asks to me such question. Usually all could not wait Fishing ». « Still couple of days, - it(he) continued thoughtfully, - and you could receive the third tourist category ». For us, green salag, it was very unexpectedly and very pleasantly. It is necessary, we do not graze back, we still something cost(stand)!

And we really wanted « continuation of a banquet », well even denka on two. Every day the hike(trekking tour) liked more and more and more - legs(foots) and a back got used to weight of a backpack and the infinite rises, the surrounding nature became more and more various, and the people going with you on narrow tropkam, have become absolutely native. And that's it during this moment it was necessary to leave and go down « in vanity of cities and in streams of machines(cars) ».

About memoirs

But for five with small days which we have lead there, above, we were reserved by impressions for all long city winter. We shall tell about the first rise on « ishachej to a track » when with neprivychki heart fought somewhere in a throat, and at everyone in mind(wit) the question span: « gossspodi and how me here has brought?! What for I have gone on it? ». Yet friends will hear time from us bajki about storm chatyr-сбъб when it seemed, that its(his) abrupt slope, porosshy a juniper, becomes a communal grave for seven gone too far tourists-beginners who have solved that can compete with mountains.

Each of us, certainly, not time will recollect abrupt descent(release) with takja-ФС»С. At first sight it seemed, that any here did not go dusty tourist krossovok. Available to begin descent(release), all of us have taken an interest at ours razveselogo a conductor, whether it(he) went down here earlier. And us at all has not surprised, when Andryukha smushchenno has muttered: « Well, I read at a tourist forum, that here it is possible to go down ». And in fact it has appeared, that is really possible! When later half an hour we have appeared at bottom, we have seemed to ourselves skilled trailblazers and sincerely divided(shared) Andrey's pleasure which ran around and vopil: « Now I know the second descent(release) from this mountain! It is necessary to check up all a couple! ». Inspired, we hardly was have not run to check this "couple" at once. Well though, have quickly come round.)))

About jokes

About prikolah this hike(trekking tour) it is necessary to tell separately. Continuously amused all harkovchanin Dimon which, once having suspected Andryukha that it(he) intentionally drives us roundabout tracks, on a regular basis verified our route with a card(map). it is necessary to tell, not one Dima suspected our conductor of intrigues and kaverzah. And as could be differently, especially after Andrjuhinyh stories how it(he) once « three times has led round group around of one bush, and they and have not noticed ». To our honour be told, though Andrey very much tried to conduct us on as much as possible intricate track - through a dense prickly bush or the tumbled down tree, - to embody on video our comical attempts to overcome a barrier, we always managed to find more convenient detour. And with it(this) inexpressibly upset our conductor. « And where you only have undertaken on my head such suspicious! », - Andrey was distressed.

Since evening of the second day Andrey has intrigued us with travel on so-called to " the Track of a gray hair » that is located on Northern Demerdzhi. Original toponim (as it has appeared later, arisen in the last hike(trekking tour)) cast ideas on mystical fears. Since the morning everyone were ready to meet adequately the next barrier on a way. And meanwhile, the road though was twisted around of rocks, at all did not seem such terrible to force our hair to turn grey prematurely. At last I have not sustained. « And when to be afraid? », - I have asked Andrey gone ahead. Sharply having turned back, having made terrible eyes and having spred wide fingers before the person(face), it(he) as zavopit: « н«-about-ойте-С ! ». From laughter all of us have not rolled down(have not slid) nearly in a precipice.
About weather

For incomplete six days in mountains we have tested on ourselves all natural cataclysms: intolerable heat on rises, a cloudy condensate at the tops, a penetrating cold from approaching on you tuchki. The sharp cold snap when from ice impulses of a wind does not rescue(save) even warmly a fire and to be protected it is possible, only densely having wrapped up in a sleeping bag, and, certainly, a rain which hardly was has not ruined to us last farewell evening. As a whole, weather was practically ideal, and its(her) variability only gave greater(big) reliability to our mountain adventures.

About meal

the Special marching menu allowed to feel the present(true) experienced traveller. Before feeding us with an exotic dish from rice, sardines and refuelling for a borshch, Andrey has lead a special preparatory session, telling, what unusual taste to us should be felt. Subsequently having conferred with comrades, we have solved, that if not these colourful verbalizations, hardly someone would take this strange gray-brown weight in a mouth. However Andrey obviously possesses gift(for nothing) of suggestion because all not only have obediently eaten "exotic" rice, but also have praised its(his) flavouring properties.

And here a dried mango (or something in this sort) which has received the strong name « the Red chicken-feed », in our group « has not gone ». It especially afflicted me, it was necessary because to bear(carry) it(her) to me, and on my desperate appeals: « Comrades who wants « the Red chicken-feed? "," comrades » invariable answered with death silence.

About music

« For me this hike(trekking tour) will strongly associate with Group "is gallant"("Gallantly";"Bravo"), - muscovite Serafim has told recently. And not only for it(him). Andrjuhina KPKshka and voices Aguzarovoj flowing from it(her) and Syutkin brightened up tiresome transitions, and gallant motivchikam it was easy(light) to echo even on rises.

At us marvellously melomanskaja the group in general has gathered. Its(her) one part - directly conductor Andrey, I and Anka from Yaroslavl - sang practically constantly: on rises, descents(releases), halts, and, certainly, at a fire. And the second, give it(her) the God of health, stoically bore(took out) our amateur performance. We not were afraid of times, that to us to a back will depart someone's krossovok, but children(guys) have appeared hardy.)))

About friends

Practically from first minute at station all of us have found common language which have not lost till now. Beginning(starting) from the first drink of mulled wine at cave emine-нбїУ-Х«ЯбУ and up to last drink of wine on a beach in Fishing after which we unwillingly spent Andryukha on it(him) marshrutku, all of us were opened(open), benevolent and ready to come each other to the aid. And there, on a beach, "having washed" our first tourist experience, all of us have decided to try to gather in following year the same structure and to go to a hike(trekking tour) « Above the sea ».

Sincerely I hope, that it will be possible to us. For now I wish to tell thanks Dimonu from Kharkov - for incessant streams smeshnejshih jokes and a training rate of massage; ZHenke from Kiev - for constant goodwill; to its(her) brother Sashke - for the master-class on installation of tent and readiness always to support(maintain) on abrupt descent(release); Anke from Yaroslavl - for its(her) idealism and the staunch force hidden under fragile appearance; Ire from Yaroslavl - that, not looking at illness which has compelled(forced) it(her) to leave(abandon) us before term, it(she) mentally was with us; Lehe from Kharkov - for invariable good mood; Serafimu from Moscow - for photos stealthily and that has risked to arrive to southern Crimea from northern capital.

Thanks Andryukha that has believed in us so to drive « experimental tracks », that showed us places, worthy only "worthy", for our водно-stone veseluhu, for farewell "glade", for Aguzarovu and long disputes at a fire, that it(he) laughed at us.

In following year wait for us again in the Crimean mountains!
