流浪者亞歷克斯，您正在收看的是《流浪兄弟》。

In this video series, I will be climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's tallest mountain, the tallest freestanding mountain in the world, all the way up to around 19,000 feet, actually just over it.

在這個視頻系列中，我將攀登非洲最高的山峰、世界上最高的獨立山峰乞力馬扎羅山，一直爬到 19000 英尺左右，實際上剛剛超過它。

At 5,895 meters, or 19,341 feet, Kilimanjaro is the tallest freestanding mountain in the world.

乞力馬扎羅山海拔 5,895 米，或 19,341 英尺，是世界上最高的獨立山峰。

It's also the tallest mountain in Africa and the tallest volcano on any continent.

它還是非洲最高的山峰，也是各大洲最高的火山。

It definitely lives up to its nickname, the Roof of Africa.

非洲屋脊的綽號絕對名副其實。

Located in Tanzania just a few degrees south of the equator near the border with Kenya, Mount Kilimanjaro is at the tail end of the 4,000 mile long Great Rift Valley, a massive geological fault that's slowly ripping apart East Africa and can be seen in the gorges, bluffs, lakes, and volcanoes of the region.

乞力馬扎羅山位於坦尚尼亞境內，赤道以南幾度，靠近肯亞邊境，處於長達 4000 英里的大裂谷的尾端。

Since Kilimanjaro was first climbed in 1889 by a German named Hans Meyer, it's become one of the most popular high altitude treks in the world.

自 1889 年德國人漢斯-邁耶首次攀登乞力馬扎羅山以來，它已成為世界上最受歡迎的高海拔徒步旅行線路之一。

But only around 65% of trekkers make it to the summit at Uhuru Peak.

但只有約 65% 的徒步旅行者能登上烏胡魯峰的頂峰。

First off, take it slowly, pole pole, as they say in Swahili.

首先，要慢慢來，用斯瓦希里語說就是 "竿子竿子"。

The longer you take, the higher your percentage is of making it to the summit because Mukungu Akipenda Tutafika.

因為 Mukungu Akipenda Tutafika（穆昆古-阿基彭達-圖塔菲卡），你花的時間越長，登上山頂的可能性就越大。

如果上帝想要，我們就會到達。

There are two main trekking seasons that coincide with Kilimanjaro's two dry seasons, January to March and June to October.

乞力馬扎羅山有兩個主要的徒步旅行季節，分別是 1 月至 3 月和 6 月至 10 月的旱季。

Although you can climb Kilimanjaro year-round, climbing in the rainy season is exactly how it sounds.

雖然全年都可以攀登乞力馬扎羅山，但在雨季攀登乞力馬扎羅山就像它的名字一樣。

Rainy, therefore wet, cold, and unpleasant.

雨天，是以潮溼、寒冷、令人不快。

We're climbing in July, and the weather is fantastic.

我們在七月登山，天氣非常好。

But for me, the most impressive part of the climb are the four distinct ecological zones, the rainforest from 7,000 to 9,000 feet, the moorland zone at 10,000 feet, the heather zone at 13,000 feet, and the alpine desert at 15,000 feet where plants experience summer temperatures during the day and winter temperatures at night.

但對我來說，攀登過程中最令人印象深刻的是四個不同的生態區：7000 到 9000 英尺的熱帶雨林區、10000 英尺的荒原區、13000 英尺的石楠區以及 15000 英尺的高山荒漠區。

Above that is a land of rock and ice, the summit, and above that, the lonely sky.

在那之上，是岩石和冰的土地，是山頂，在那之上，是孤獨的天空。

As much of an accomplishment as climbing Mount Kilimanjaro is, let's be honest, it wouldn't be possible without the superhuman effort shown every single day by the porters, chefs, and guides who do everything in their power to get you to the summit and make it as comfortable as possible.

老實說，攀登乞力馬扎羅山是一項巨大的成就，但如果沒有搬運工、廚師和嚮導每天的超人努力，就不可能實現這一目標。

When it comes to tipping, bring an extra 300 to 400 US dollars for your porters, chefs, and guides because let's be honest, without them, there's no way you'd make it to the top.

說到小費，請為您的搬運工、廚師和嚮導多準備 300 到 400 美元，因為老實說，沒有他們，您根本不可能登上山頂。

The adventure begins by climbing a couple of steps in the van.

在麵包車裡爬上幾級臺階，探險就開始了。

We're up here on the slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro.

我們在乞力馬扎羅山的山坡上。

我們現在的高度大約是 6000 英尺。

The soil here on the slopes of the volcano is actually really good.

火山斜坡上的土壤其實非常好。

Across the valley, you can see Kilimanjaro's little brother, Mount Meru.

穿過山谷，就能看到乞力馬扎羅山的小兄弟梅魯山。

Really excited to get underway, start walking.

This is where everybody signs in, you pay your fees, and then this is where the porters have to weigh their bags.

每個人都要在這裡簽到、繳費，然後搬運工人要在這裡給行李稱重。

Legally, they're required to have a limit.

從法律上講，他們必須有一個限度。

I think the limit is something around 30 kg, which is like 60 pounds, but there is a scale here.

我想上限是 30 公斤左右，也就是 60 磅，但這裡有秤。

Each porter has to weigh their bag and make sure that that weight limit is below.

每個搬運工都必須稱量自己的行李重量，確保低於重量限制。

A, it's in the porter's best interest to have a lighter load, and B, it employs more people.

A. 減輕搬運工的負擔符合他們的最大利益；B. 僱用更多的人。

Obviously, Mount Kilimanjaro is a big tourist draw, which means it's good for the economy and for the local population.

顯然，乞力馬扎羅山吸引了大量遊客，這意味著它對經濟和當地居民都有好處。

The porters get a job, and by limiting the weight, it means more porters get more employment.

搬運工得到了一份工作，通過限制重量，意味著更多的搬運工得到了更多的就業機會。

We're driving down, which is counterintuitive, but then we will begin the trek in the rainforest zone, and hopefully this will end with us at the top of the mountain.

我們要開車下山，這與直覺相反，但隨後我們將在熱帶雨林區開始跋涉，希望最終能到達山頂。

An incredible welcome and introduction from the porters from Kili Warriors, and then we have a nice little lunch spread.

基裡勇士的搬運工為我們做了精彩的歡迎儀式和介紹，然後我們享用了一頓豐盛的午餐。

One of the best ways to combat altitude sickness is to stay hydrated and continue to fuel your body by eating.

對抗高原反應的最佳方法之一是保持水分，並繼續通過進食為身體補充能量。

I'm going to go stuff my face real quick, drink a bunch of water, and then we're going to begin.

我得趕緊去填飽肚子，喝口水，然後我們就開始。

The trailhead is right there, and it goes up.

小徑入口就在那裡，一直往上走。

We've just begun the climb, and right now we are in the forest zone.

我們剛剛開始攀登，現在正處於森林地帶。

This is the base of the mountain, even though we're already at around 6,000 feet.

這裡是山腳，儘管我們已經在 6000 英尺左右的高度。

Up in the treetops, you can see there's monkeys running around.

在樹梢上，你可以看到猴子在跑來跑去。

As we get farther up, we're going to see less and less wildlife.

越往上，我們看到的野生動物就會越來越少。

Today in the beginning of the trek, this is when we have the most chance to see some of the wildlife.

今天是徒步旅行的開始，也是我們最有機會看到野生動物的時候。

We've been walking now for maybe two and a half or three hours.

我們已經走了兩個半小時或三個小時了。

We're at around 9,000 feet, which is difficult to believe because we're in this lush jungle.

我們現在的高度約為 9000 英尺，這很難讓人相信，因為我們正身處鬱鬱蔥蔥的叢林中。

But what I found the coolest so far are these little glades.

但到目前為止，我覺得最酷的還是這些小峽谷。

The mountain kind of falls down, and then there's just a little valley, and at the bottom of the valley, it's just full of green, lush foliage, and all of these bird sounds that I've never heard before.

山勢逐漸下降，然後是一個小山谷，谷底滿是鬱鬱蔥蔥的樹葉，還有我從未聽過的鳥叫聲。

I'm so glad to be out here experiencing Mount Kilimanjaro.

我很高興能在這裡體驗乞力馬扎羅山。

Really actually quite spacious and luxurious.

實際上，這裡真的很寬敞、很豪華。

Got a little bowl of hot water for cleaning up, so I'm washing the face and just kind of saying goodbye to the sweat and the sunscreen, but great first day.

我有一盆熱水，可以用來洗臉，就這樣告別了汗水和防晒霜，第一天過得不錯。

Going to have some dinner, then hit the sack early, and big day tomorrow, climbing out of the jungle and making our way up into the moorland.

吃點晚飯，然後早點休息，明天是重要的一天，我們要爬出叢林，進入荒原。

We've just finished our first night up here on the slopes of Kilimanjaro, and actually slept surprisingly well.

我們剛剛在乞力馬扎羅山的山坡上度過了第一夜，睡得出奇地好。

Only got up once around 2 in the morning.

只在凌晨兩點左右起過一次床。

Heard some very interesting sounds in the forest at night.

晚上在森林裡聽到了一些非常有趣的聲音。

We're going to pack up our day packs again.

我們又要收拾我們的日用揹包了。

We'll have some breakfast, and then we're going to get on the trail.

We have about six or seven hours of trekking today.

我們今天要徒步旅行六七個小時。

We're going to gain around 1,000 meters, almost 3,000 feet, and we'll be leaving the jungle zone and entering the heather zone.

我們將上升約1000米，近3000英尺，離開叢林區，進入石楠區。

We'll be hiking from Big Tree Camp at around 9,000 feet all the way up to Shira One Camp at around 11,500 feet.

我們將從海拔約 9000 英尺的大樹營地徒步前往海拔約 11500 英尺的希拉一號營地。

While the first milestone has been reached, we're right on the edge of the heather zone, and we have to say goodbye to the rainforest, which honestly I'm a little sad about.

雖然已經達到了第一個里程碑，但我們正處於石楠區的邊緣，我們不得不與熱帶雨林說再見，說實話，我有點難過。

It's been beautiful walking through these gorgeous trees, and as we've come up to the edge of the heather zone, we've entered into almost like a cypress forest, and we're surrounded by this lichen, which really just reminds me of back home in California in Monterey County.

走在這些華麗的樹叢中，感覺非常美妙。當我們走到石楠帶的邊緣時，我們幾乎進入了一片柏樹林，周圍都是地衣，這讓我想起了在加利福尼亞蒙特雷縣的老家。

There's a lot of trees that look like this.
