Amajyaruguru ya Kaliforuniya ya kilometero kare 1,250 y’amazi n’imirima ni ahantu h’ibihe bine byerekanwa n’abakunzi ba siporo y’amazi kandi niho hari imiryango myinshi y’imigezi.
Umuyaga wari ipfundo 20 kandi umuyaga ushyushye wahuhaga ubwato mugihe twegereye iburengerazuba, munsi yumugezi no kumanuka kumugezi wa Sacramento.Twafashe ubwato tunyura hejuru yizinga rya Sherman, tunyura buhoro buhoro itsinda ryaba kitesurfers hamwe n umuyaga uhuha hejuru yigitereko maze batera ibimenyetso byamahoro. .Montezuma yinyeganyeza mu burengerazuba mu buryo bwihuse, yuzuyemo uduce twinshi tw’umuyaga uhuha cyane, mu gihe urubingo ruhanamye rugana iburasirazuba, ruzamuka ruhuza umukumbi wamira, uhinda umushyitsi.
Twerekeje iburasirazuba, hafi y’amajyepfo ya Bend ya Island ya Decker, twanyuze hejuru y’ibiti byangiritse byangiritse, amagorofa yegeranye yuzuyeho ibihuru, hanyuma tumanura inanga hafi y’igiti cyimeza cyagutse. Izuba ryarenze kandi ubushyo bw’inka bwazereraga mu mazi, tureba. gukeka mu cyerekezo cyacu ubwo twasimbukaga umuheto koga.
Hari muri Gicurasi 2021 kandi njye n'umugabo wanjye Alex twari kuri Saltbreaker, ubwato bwa 32ft 1979 Valiant ubwato yaguze na murumuna we hashize imyaka 10. Nyuma y'amezi y'imivurungano, intimba, n'amaganya biturutse ku cyorezo, njye na Alex twifuzaga gusohoka kandi koga izuba - ni gake mu mezi yizuba yibicu iwacu mu burengerazuba bwa San Francisco The - Shakisha inzira zidasanzwe, zuzura umuyaga wa Sakramento-San Joaquin Delta. Uru rugendo rw'ubwato ruzamara icyumweru ruzaba urwa mbere mubantu batandatu dusuye '' ve yakorewe mukarere mumezi ashize.
Nkuko twese tubizi, Delta ni gahunda igoye kandi yagutse ya kilometero kare 1,250 y’amazi n’imirima y’imirima ishingiye ku masangano y’inzuzi za Sakramento na San Joaquin. Ubusanzwe igishanga kinini gituwe n’inyoni n’amafi menshi kandi gishobora kugendwa n’abasangwabutaka, delta, kimwe nibintu byinshi muri Californiya, yarahindutse cyane. Guhera mu kinyejana cya 19 rwagati, hasubijwe itegeko rya Everglades ryo mu 1850, Gold Rush, hamwe n’abaturage ba Californiya ryagutse, ibishanga byaracukuwe, byuma, kandi bihingwa kugira ngo bigaragaze abakire ifu; nini nini yigeze gukorwa muri Amerika Muri umwe mu mishinga yo gutunganya ubutaka, amazi yahagaritswe na dike.
Inzira nyinshi zifunganye, zigenda - amazi ya capillary atemba ava mumigezi ya arterial anyura mu bishanga - yashushanyijeho umurongo ugororotse kugirango arusheho gukorera ihuriro ry’inzira nyabagendwa ya San Francisco, Sakramento na Stockton.Uruzi ubwabwo rwacukuwe mu myanda yakozwe n’ubucukuzi bwa Siyera Nevada. , gushiraho imiyoboro itwara abantu, kandi imijyi yatangiye kumera ku nkombe nshya zubatswe. Nyuma yikinyejana nigice, mugihe tugenda muriyi nzira y'amazi, twirinze uburyo budashoboka nyaburanga. Ku bwato bwacu, ntitwashoboraga kuba muremure cyane hejuru yubutaka bwimpande zombi.Murakoze kuri iyo miyoboro ihindura inkombe, ibi bibaho kenshi bihagije kugirango twemere kureba hasi kubutaka bwa metero mirongo munsi yamazi.
Ntabwo byamenyekana rwose muburyo bwumwimerere, delta ikomeza kuba imikoranire ihuza ubutaka namazi.Isi yumuyaga yumuyaga wicyatsi kibisi, ubururu na zahabu, ibibanza byiganjemo amababi magufi hamwe numuyoboro winzira zamazi zinyura mumirima yimirima no mumijyi yinzuzi ihujwe nibiraro. .Often, inzira itaziguye kuva ahantu hamwe ujya ahandi ni hejuru y'amazi. Kugeza aho usanga amoko arenga 750 kavukire, delta niyo nyoni nini yimuka ihagarara kumuhanda wimuka wa pasifika hamwe nikigo kinini cyubuhinzi, hamwe na asparagus, amapera, amande. , inzabibu za vino n’amatungo byose byungukira ku butaka bwe burumbuka.Ni kandi ibihe bine byerekanwa na siporo yumuyaga, ubwato, n’uburobyi, ndetse n’umuryango aho usanga, nubwo ari isaha imwe uvuye San Francisco, ntakintu kimeze nkakarere ka Bay .
Amazi ya Californiya amaze igihe kinini avugwaho rumwe, akaba yarushijeho kujya impaka mu gihe ubushyuhe bwiyongera ndetse n’amapfa akiyongera. Delta ni hafi bibiri bya gatatu by’amazi y’ibanze ya leta kandi itangwa n’amazi meza aturuka muri Siyera Lewone, nk'uko Minisiteri y’ububanyi n’amahanga ibitangaza. y’amazi y’amazi.Ariko delta nayo yibasiwe na sisitemu y’amazi y’amazi ya San Francisco Bay kandi igomba guhangana n’igabanuka ry’imvura y’urubura ndetse n’izamuka ry’inyanja - byombi bifite ubushobozi bwo guhungabanya imiterere y’amazi meza mu gihe byongera ibyago byo gukabya. umwuzure. Ihuriro ryo gutakaza aho gutura, ihinduka ryubwiza bw’amazi n’imiterere y’imigezi iva ku rugomero rwo hejuru nabyo byagize ingaruka ku moko kavukire nka delta hafi ya delta yazimye.
Uko imyaka yagendaga ihita n’amazi yazamutse, ubuso bwakozwe na levee bwari bumeze nabi cyane.Uruzi rwubatswe hejuru.Ibirwa byinshi byakozwe n'abantu ubu biri munsi ya metero 25 munsi y’amazi kubera ubwinshi bw’imisozi no gutakaza ubutaka. .Ibikorwa remezo bya levee ubwabyo bigomba kuvugururwa kuko sisitemu ihura n’impanuka ziterwa n’umwuzure, kwangirika muri rusange n’imitingito.
Ibyifuzo biherutse byo gukemura ibyo bibazo no gukomeza Californiya ikeneye amazi harimo kubaka umuyoboro uzwi ku izina rya Delta Delivery Project, kugira ngo urusheho kuvoma amazi meza mu bindi bihugu byose.Umushinga uri mu ishami rya Minisiteri ishinzwe umutungo w’amazi. Gahunda ya Leta y’amazi, ni kimwe gusa mu bigo byinshi bifite uburenganzira bw’amazi mu karere, harimo amakomine y’ibanze na guverinoma ihuriweho na leta.
Kuri ubu umushinga wa Conveyance urimo gusuzumwa ku bidukikije, ariko kubera ko ejo hazaza h’akarere ndetse n’ejo hazaza h’amazi ya leta hagenda hagaragara, kuko amatsinda agera kuri 200 abigiramo uruhare kandi afite ijwi. (Benshi mu bucuruzi bwaho nanyuzemo kariya gace bagaragaye basaba leta "guhagarika umuyoboro no gukiza delta yacu!") Iyi miryango idaharanira inyungu, amasosiyete akora ubuhinzi bwinganda, abaturage baho nandi matsinda baravuga kugirango bakize delta bakwiriye Ni: isoko y'amazi, irinzwe urusobe rw'ibinyabuzima, ahantu ho kwidagadurira hashobora kugerwaho, gukusanya abaturage, cyangwa guhuriza hamwe kwabo.Inama ishinzwe igisonga cya Delta ni urwego rw'igihugu rwagenewe gutegura gahunda ndende yo gucunga hitawe kubikenewe muri izo nyungu zirushanwa.
Umuyobozi wungirije ushinzwe igenamigambi rya komisiyo, Harriet Ross yagize ati: "Gushakisha uko twahangana n’imihindagurikire y’ikirere ntabwo ari umwihariko wa delta, ariko birashoboka ko bigoye hano kuko dufite inyungu zitandukanye."
Nta mpaka zijyanye no gusuzuma Delta: ni amabuye yihishe kuri buri wese.Twakoresheje icyumweru cyacu cya mbere tunyura mu nzuzi no mu byondo, tunyura ku biraro, tugenda dusubira inyuma mu ruzi rwa San Joaquin, dukurura ubwato bwacu mu bwato bw'uruzi rwa Moore kuri inzoga zikonje na burger, no kuri Kos pirate lair A sitasiyo ya lisansi ihambiriye ku bwato, kandi amagana ya egret na crane byandika amashami yigiti cyegereye.
Jet skis hamwe nubwato bwihuta, akenshi bikurikirana amazi yumurizo hamwe nibijumba, ni ibintu bisanzwe, hamwe na tanker nini nini yo mu kirere nini ya peteroli yinjira kandi isohoka muri Stockton.
Ibi ntaho bitandukaniye nurugendo urwo arirwo rwose twe cyangwa Saltbreaker twigeze gukora.Mu gihe cyo kwambuka inyanja, amato akunda guhora ahindagurika bitewe numuraba uhindagurika. Kugenda mukigobe cya San Francisco bitanga umunyu mwinshi wumuyaga numuyaga numuhengeri wera. Hano, amazi ahanini aringaniye, umwuka ushyushye urakonje, kandi ikirere gifite impumuro nziza, yubutaka yubutaka.Mu gihe turi kure yubwato bwonyine bwonyine, turuta skisi yindege hamwe nubwato bwihuta hamwe na moteri ikomeye yo hanze - tugenda mubice byoroshye imigezi ikomeye mugihe wirinze kugabanuka kumato utwarwa numuyaga kandi ntibyoroshye.
Muri Gicurasi, ibyumweru nyuma yo kurasa kwacu kwa kabiri, nta gisobanuro cya kabiri giteye impungenge kuri "delta", kandi twishimiye ko twabonye amahirwe yo gukora ubushakashatsi ku butaka. Twatwaye ubwato bwo gusura imijyi ya Delta, kuva Rio Vista na Easton muri Amajyepfo Hagati kugeza Walnut Grove na Locke mu majyaruguru, ukumva nta kintu na kimwe cyatsindisha ingendo bitewe n’imihanda minini y’amateka, utubari dushushanyijeho neon na Bindi nk, umunsi umwe, amato yo mu myaka ya za 1960 Inkuba zanyuze mu nkombe.
Iva Walton, nyiri icyumba cy’inzoga cya Mei Wah, inzu y’inzoga y’ubukorikori i Isleton, ahahoze ari kazino y’Abashinwa yagize ati: "Buri gihe mbwira abakiriya banjye ko Isleton ari imyaka 70 na kilometero 70 uvuye San Francisco."
Imiryango yo muri delta imaze igihe kinini itandukanye, aho abantu bo mu Giportigale, Espagne na Aziya bakomoka muri ako gace babanje kwihuta muri zahabu nyuma baza guhinga. Mu mujyi muto wa Rock, inyubako z'ibiti kuva mu ntangiriro z'ikinyejana cya 20 ziracyahagaze, niba ihengamye gato, dufite Al the Wops, bistro yafunguwe mu 1934 (yego, izina ryayo nyirizina - nanone yitwa Al's Place) unywa byeri hamwe na fagitire y’amadolari ku gisenge, abanyamagare bambaye uruhu mu kabari. Inzugi enye hasi , twabonye isomo ryamateka kuri Martha Esch, umaze igihe kinini atuye Delta akaba na nyiri Lockeport Grill & Fountain, ahahoze iduka rya kera ryahinduye vintage soda Isoko, hejuru yayo hari ibyumba bitandatu byo gukodesha.
Ibindi binezeza harimo martinis ikonje kuri Tony Plaza muri Walnut Grove na sandwiches ya mugitondo ku kabari kuri Wimpy Pier.Ntabwo twenyine twishimira ibyiza byaho, kuko icyorezo gisa nkicyateje imbere ubukerarugendo muri delta.

Urebye ahazaza.Nk'uko guverinoma zo ku isi zorohereza imipaka ya coronavirus, inganda z’ingendo zirizera ko uyu mwaka uzaba umwaka wo gukira inganda z’ingendo. Dore ibyo dutegereje:
Ingendo zo mu kirere. Biteganijwe ko abagenzi benshi bazaguruka ugereranije numwaka ushize, ariko uracyakeneye kugenzura ibyangombwa byinjira byinjira niba ugenda mumahanga.
guma.Mu gihe cyicyorezo, abagenzi benshi bavumbuye ubuzima bwite amazu akodeshwa atanga. Amahoteri arashaka kongera guhatanira gutanga imitungo yagutse-yo kugumaho, amahitamo arambye, utubari two hejuru hamwe nu mwanya dukorana.
Gukodesha imodoka.Abagenzi barashobora kwitega ibiciro biri hejuru hamwe n’imodoka ndende zishaje, kuko ibigo bitagishoboye kwagura amato yabo. Gushakisha ubundi buryo? Urubuga rwo kugabana imodoka rushobora kuba amahitamo ahendutse.
ubwato butwara abagenzi. Nubwo umwaka utangiye urutare, ibyifuzo byubwato butwara abagenzi bikomeje kuba byinshi kubera ubwiyongere bwa Omicron. Ingendo zogukora ingendo zishimishije zirashimishije cyane kurubu kuko mubisanzwe zigenda mumato mato kandi zikirinda abantu benshi.
aho ugana.Imijyi yagarutse kumugaragaro: abagenzi bashishikajwe no kumenya byinshi kubyerekeranye n’ahantu nyaburanga, ibiryo, n'amajwi ya metero nkuru nka Paris cyangwa New York. Mugihe kiruhura cyane, resitora zimwe na zimwe zo muri Amerika zirimo gukora icyitegererezo hafi ya cyose kirimo gufata tekereza kubikorwa byo gutegura ibiruhuko byawe.
uburambe. Amahitamo yingendo yibanze kubuzima (tekereza umwiherero wabashakanye ninama yinyanja hamwe nabatoza ba hafi) bigenda byiyongera mubyamamare.Mu gihe kimwe, ingendo zishingiye ku burezi zirashakishwa cyane nimiryango ifite abana.
Ati: “Byarambabaje kubona tudashobora gutanga amasomo mu gihe gito kubera amabwiriza ya Parike ya Sherman Island. Kugurisha imbaho 20 $ 500 ntabwo byadushimishije rwose. "Ati:" Ariko rwose turahuze, ni byiza. "
Ahantu henshi twasuye, haba mu nzu ndetse no hanze, masike zari nke kandi ziri kure.Ibi birasa nkimpinduka mbi muri Gicurasi na Kamena. Ubwo twagarukaga muri Nyakanga, indwara ya coronavirus ya Californiya yariyongereye, kandi yumvaga ivanze cyane .Nkuko twanyoye Mariya Amaraso kwa Wimpy, undi murinzi yamaganye itegeko rishoboka rya mask ubwo yategekaga scotch na soda mu kirahure cya pint. Igihe naganiraga na Madamu Walton i Meihua kubyerekeye ubucuruzi bwe muri Kanama, ntiyatindiganyije musangire ibitekerezo byo kurwanya-gufunga, kurwanya urukingo (birakwiye ko tumenya ko Meihua afite ubusitani bwinzoga zo hanze).
Nyuma yo kutamenya neza umwaka ushize nigice, garanti yonyine nuko ibintu bizakomeza guhinduka.Nuko rero iyo bigeze ku cyorezo, ingendo, kandi yego, kuri Delta, ahari inzira nziza yo gutera imbere nukugira intego igenda. Kuberako mu gihe delta ari ahantu hihariye ukurikije ubwiza bwayo, imiterere, n’akamaro gakomeye ku nyungu za Californiya, kimwe n’ibintu byinshi byo mu Burengerazuba, na byo bihuriza hamwe amahitamo abantu bagomba guhitamo uko iterabwoba ry’imihindagurikire y’ikirere ryiyongera. Mu buryo bwo kuzamuka kwinyanja, inkubi zubushyuhe zangiza cyangwa ubushyuhe bwiyongera. Delta, kimwe n’ahandi hose muri Californiya, iragenda igerwaho n’inkongi y’umuriro ndetse n’ubuziranenge bw’ikirere.
Dr. Peter Moyle, umwarimu wavutse mu ishami rya UC Davis ry’inyamanswa, Amafi no Kubungabunga Ibinyabuzima, amaze imyaka ibarirwa muri za mirongo yiga deltas. byinshi bisa na Delta yumwimerere ".Ntagushidikanya ko niyo inzira igana imbere, impinduka zikomeye byanze bikunze.
Ati: “Delta ni gahunda itandukanye cyane no mu myaka 150 ishize, cyangwa no mu myaka 50 ishize. Irahora ihinduka. "Ati:" Ubu turi mu bihe by'agateganyo, kandi abantu bakeneye kumenya icyo bifuza ko sisitemu imera. "
Ibishoboka kubyo bisa nkaho bitagira iherezo, guhera kugerageza kubungabunga uko bishoboka kwose kugeza gutunganya ibidukikije byamazi y’amazi n’ibishanga.Buri wese arashaka gukiza Delta, ariko ni ubuhe bwoko bwa Delta bukwiye kuzigama? Ninde ubikora? Delta Air Line ikora neza?
Kujya muri delta ni inzozi mbi; gusohoka mu nyanja ni umutwe. Mu mpeshyi twakodesheje ubwato kuri Owl Harbour Marina ku kirwa cya Twichel (birashoboka ko mu myaka mirongo iri imbere y'amazi, nk'uko Dr Moyle abivuga) .Twicaye mu kabati k'ubwato bwacu kuri a ijoro ryo kuwa gatanu rishyushye muri Nyakanga nyuma yicyumweru ku mazi, izuba rirenze, umuyaga uhuha kandi ikirere cyari icunga; uwo munsi ubushyuhe bwari dogere 110, kandi bukeye buzashyuha. Twabonye akayunguruzo kababajwe no kuba twegereye icyari cyabo, cyubatswe munsi y’izuba ku bwato bwacu kandi cyari mu kaga. Inyoni zisa nkaho ari gutongana inzira nziza.
Twatekereje, tugira tuti: "Mbega ahantu hateye akaga," twaganiriye ku bishoboka ko amagi yabo yatera mbere yuko dufata ubwato, twizeye ko bazabikora, nubwo bahisemo urugo.
Tugarutse nyuma y'ibyumweru bike, ubushyuhe bwari bwaragabanutse, ibyari byari ubusa, kandi abamira barashize.Twafashe ubwato nitonze tuvuye mu bice bigufi, twirinda shoals hamwe n’inyanja, kera twatereranywe igice kinini cyacitsemo ibice gikikijwe n’amazi y’amazi atera, hanyuma natwe turabikora.
