Travel routes to the forest rivers

But there are other ways - the old paths of Siberia, deep rivers, meandering trails taiga. Those who are not restricted to time who is not afraid of traffic troubles and wants to meet not only with Kodar and Charoy, but also with nature, cities, people much greater part of Siberia, a better way and not come up with. One of them starts in Romanovka, a large village gradually disappeared, connected by a highway with Chita. Each year during the period of flooding, usually falling in July, from Romanovka is karbasny rafting on average Vitim. Rafting tridtsatitonnom karbase, towed water-jet cutter, takes about a week and very instructive. On a separate descent without a pilot on a raft or kayak should not be addressed. On the first 120 km of river meets Gloom-brave few dozen shoals - "shi-Pisek and Shiver with a sloping and nut. And then the bear on the high rollers, swallow sneaky catches to the mouth of Bambuyki meet again fighting with stones Shiver, corridors cheeks, where the flow rate is about 20-25 miles per hour, and finally, the savage and Paramskim Delyun-Oronskim thresholds. From Vitim have two options out in Kodar. If karbasy reached only to Mui Ne, you will need to use a cheap local airline IUJ - Chara (distance 200 km). Do not be tempted shown on some maps on the road from Nelyat Chara. This road - the winter road. 30-40 years ago, when aviation was no way through the endless summer swamps of "road" has held up to three weeks. If it is possible to raft up Oron, it can be emptied by the local population on the motorboat to Sygykty, go for a week and a half into the center Kodar. Another way to our area starts at Lake Baikal. Two and a half days, the traveler will be on board the boat to admire the majestic beauty of the Siberian Sea, to, traveling and then on a river boat ride from the Lower Angarsk to Cumorah (Upper Angarsk), delve mountain roads of North-ridge in Muya Vitimskii gold-taiga. Pedestrian area takes a little over a week and leads to the place Mui, from possible alloy. Here, we can not count on a pilot-only rare Evenki or drill, industrial "soft gold", wanders, and then winter, in the upper Muya. Therefore, tourists should know that IUJ is passable only in the upper and lower reaches, where it is deepest and calm. Rafting to the village IUJ (subject to bypass rapids in the middle reaches, and double the construction of rafts) takes twelve to fifteen days, but leaves pleasant memories of the not-Siberian "soft" taiga Muya basin. In the Kodar hiking possibilities are very diverse. From relatively simple radial routes interesting hiking six to ten days to the headwaters of the Middle and Upper Saku-chan. Here you can get acquainted with the nature of the taiga, and alpine vegetation, to see glaciers, to visit close to the peak of 2,999.8 meters are available and water travel Char, where a boat with a motor it is easy to get up in the sands, swamps and taiga to the lake or down the Leprindo downstream to the first rapids. If you have experience you can take circular routes saddle for twelve to fifteen days: river Apsat - pass the 26 th of the glacier - a river Medium Sakukan, River Upper Sakukan - Verhnesakukansky Pass - Pass Deer - River Syulban; River Middle Sakukan - Bear Pass - a river of ice - Pass-through - the river left Sygykta - Pass Verhnesakukansky - River Upper Sakukan. Most complete picture of life and nature area yield through paths through the ridge to the south-east - north-west. The simplest option - a way to Apsatu through shallow pass (or rather a mountain pass) into the right Sygyktu continue to Lake Oron. Harder and longer the "profile" routes from the rivers Syulban, Middle and Upper Sakukan through tributaries Sygykty - Stone, Hallas, Stlanikovuyu at Oron. From Oron, a small village that is home to all three families, it is necessary for passing rafts to reach Delyun-Oronskogo threshold and Amalyka (less than 50 km), which is easy on a boat for the day to come down to Bodaibo. Inspection of the "Russian Klondike" should allocate special time for a short story Bodaybo (in 1963 he celebrated his century) is full of contrasts and bright pages. Then continue on the path Vitim at Lena. In place of their merger could not help think about it - who prefer. And although it is believed that Lena - the most beautiful river in Siberia, perhaps, the rights and hoops, saying that "much Vitim willfully, grander and more impressive than the lazy Lena." Three and a half days spent at sea by Bodaybo to Ust-Kut (top rail), - an excellent discharge papers after camp life. Steep banks that dark-green, their soft image melts into the blue haze. Under Kirensk appear cheeks, poles, Shiver, Shiver like "Devil's path or rock Drunken Bull", where one of the versions once crashed the boat with wine. Comfortable boat sometimes stick to the deserted shore to graze or pick up passengers at the signal a raised hand. At the county scale, it plays the role of taxi ... In cases where the tourists in Kodari appoint themselves research tasks, their itineraries will obviously vary and be based on the camps, pre-broken in the highlands. For getting to there products and equipment it is desirable to use a pack of deer or helicopter. It should be remembered that the time of successful trips to the highlands Kodar limited to one or two months. At altitudes over 2000 meters in the second decade of July, the snow is often still covers a significant portion of the surface valleys, all the lakes beneath the ice and are only beginning to appear the first flowers, but after the first decade of August flowering already ends and possibly loss of the winter snow. Short summer cool and rainy. But though at times cloudy and the relative humidity reaches the upper limit, precipitation is not every day. More common rain drizzling rain "charges" for one to two hours. The wind is weak, even on the passes there are no significant "pipes." Much more serious obstacle than the climatic conditions - the mountain terrain and rivers. Therefore, all routes that contain rocky areas or climbing, winter transitions and rafting on the rivers, should be recommended only by specially trained teams provided a thorough exploration and mutual insurance. In particular, when mountaineering activities to remember the lack of reliable support on Kodar rocks. It is possible that climbing in the cold season, when the scales are constrained by the frozen rock of crack with water and are more resistant to lead to the tops of Kodar. But this is only speculation, as speculation about the reality of rafting on the middle and lower reaches Sygykty or Syulbana. Appealing, but requires more development and testing of one of the options for tourism combined expedition, consisting of pre-loads in getting to a few points of high mountains by helicopter, poluinstrumentalnyh observations of glaciers during the fifteen to twenty days, and faster time to kayak in populated areas. Without intelligence on these trips can not be resolved, as any mistake, inexperienced, or foolhardiness to Kodari can end tragically. Above Charoy engaged a new day. In the village come to new people in the forest there is a new technique. Geologists Udokanskoe expedition successfully conduct reconnaissance mednorudnogo field. Hydro is already scheduled sites for future dams on the Vitim and in principle. Not far distant day, when over-gloomy river, the river eighth in the country in reserves of hydropower, light up fun lights. Life persistently wakes bearish territory. Have their forces in search of minerals, exploration of glaciers, small rivers to make assessment and tourists.
