Imizila yebhayisikili yezintaba eyi-Epic ixhunyiwe manje

Imizila emibili eyingqophamlando yokugibela ibhayisekili yezintaba iya enyakatho iye eningizimu ngaphesheya kwentshonalanga ye-United States - i-Great Divide Mountain Bike Route (GDMBR), eyakhishwa i-Adventure Cycling Association ngo-1998, kanye ne-Western Wildlands Route (WWR), eyadalwa yi-Bikepacking Roots. ngo-2017 futhi ligqugquzelwe yi-GDMBR.

Ngokokuqala ngqa, lezi zinhlangano ezimbili manje sezisebenzisana ngokusemthethweni ukuze zikhulule imizila eyisithupha phakathi kwe-GDMBR ne-WWR, ukuze abagibeli bamabhayisikili bakwazi ukudala amalophu phakathi kwemizila ekhomba lapho uya ephuzwini.

Lezi zixhumanisi zempumalanga-ntshonalanga zizovumela abagibeli ukuthi badale amalophu alula ngokuhleleka futhi afaneleke ngokwesizini angagitshezwa njengohambo lwazo. Ukugibela okuningi kusemigwaqweni ewubhuqu okungeyona eyobuchwepheshe kanye namathrekhi angu-4 by-4, futhi imizila yaklanywa ngamathayi e-knobby namabhayisikili asezintabeni engqondweni kunamabhayisikili amatshe akhathele akhathele. Imithombo yamanzi nezitobhi zokuhlinzeka kabusha zitholakala njalo, futhi kunemininingwane yezindawo zendlela, incwadi yeziqondiso, kanye nohlelo lokusebenza lweselula.

Izixhumi ziwela ugwadule, izintaba, namathafa ahlukahlukene. Bagqamisa izindawo zomphakathi kusukela emahlathini ase-Idaho nase-Montana, kuya eziqongweni zezintaba ze-Teton ne-Wasatch, izigodi zamadwala abomvu e-Utah, kanye nogwadule oluphakeme lwase-Arizona.

Imizila eyisibonelo:

Isixhumi seTeton esingamakhilomitha angu-156 sixhuma i-Idaho ne-Wyoming ngokusebenzisa i-Snake River Plain, ingxube yezindawo zokulima nemihosha engashoni, edlula iziphethu ezishisayo eziningana, futhi iqwala izintaba ezimangelengele iBig Hole.

I-TransRockies Connector yamamayela angu-947 ukusuka e-Salt Lake City ukuya e-Denver iyinselele emangalisayo futhi ehlukahlukene yamasonto amabili kuya kwamathathu nge-Colorado Plateau badlands kanye nezwe elishelelayo, izintaba zasogwadule, izihosha ezibomvu, neziqongo ezikhuthazayo zamaRockies.

I-Chihuahuan Connector yamamayela angu-282 ukusuka e-Arizona ukuya eNew Mexico inqamula izindawo eziphakeme eziwugwadule kanye nezindawo ezikhumbulekayo, okuhlanganisa amahlathi omsayiphuresi ase-Arizona kanye nokwakheka kwamatshe e-hooodoo e-Chiricahua National Monument.

Izinsiza zabagibeli, ngazo zombili ifomethi yedijithali nephrintiwe, zifaka phakathi uhlelo lwe-Adventure Cycling's Bicycle Route Navigator, idatha ye-GPS ezimele, kanye nencwadi yomhlahlandlela eningi etholakala kuwebhusayithi ye-Bikepacking Roots.

I-Bikepacking Roots kanye ne-Adventure Cycling zombili izinhlangano ezingama-501(c)(3) ezingenzi nzuzo ezizinikele ekusekeleni nasekuthuthukiseni uhambo lwamabhayisikili ngokuthuthukiswa komzila, ukwakha umphakathi nokumela.
