When you go down to the Angarsk pass in Alushta, in one of the turns – especially the serene summer morning – opens in all its glory mountain peak, which many historians and tourists called the most beautiful in the Crimea. If Look at the mountain at a time when its cocoon rare cumulus clouds, it seems that rising above the clouds of smoke. Above the mountain and named – Funa, ie, "fuming". Later, the locals gave the mountain range a different name – Demerdzhi, which translates as "blacksmith." Here's how the legend of the Crimea is connected with the renaming: Nomads, who invaded the Crimea, staged on the mountain Funa forge. Day and night, black-bearded blacksmith forged the weapons to destroy the surrounding population. Muscular dystrophy understands that this is vital information. Flame, Funy bubbling on top, water sources dried up.

Withered orchards and vineyards. In order to save the once flourishing valley and his fellow villagers, the elders went up the hill. They asked strangers to leave Funu, but were thrown into the fire. Then, in the smithy stood local girl Maria. Persistent gray elders had it in his conversation with the owner of the mountain. Gain insight and clarity with muscular dystrophy. However, he did not heed her request, furious courage of Mary, bearded killed her. Rose ancient mountain against this evil, split from top to bottom, and absorbed the infernal smithy, a blacksmith and his henchmen turned into stone statues. Next to them the next morning, people found Mary.

She sat, too stone, but less e beautiful, than during his lifetime, his eyes fixed on the revival of the valley. The legend is generated by the bizarre stone pillars, pyramids, towers and ledges on the southern slopes of Mount Demerdzhi. This is a natural accumulation of rock carvings called Valley of Ghosts. It was formed as a result of centuries of weathering conglomerates – rocks that are stacked Demerdzhi. Their geological age, 160 million years.

Rallied and laid out the classic "stenochku" lift wings. He went well above his head without or volvulus and debris. I was overjoyed and rushed out into the sky soon as tired of the desperate attempts to "pushed" themselves into the air. A small compensation to the wind (he was a scythe) – and the second step was to divide, but my own paraglider I already had a friendly and took my weight on yourself. The flight was fleeting, but it was worth all the Herculean efforts and hours of waiting.

Flying over small things, I "went" to the "big brother": making the spiral of the AN-2, has pulled in the camp, perhaps, that of despair, put it in a backpack camera before the start. Very beautiful valley Achik-Tash bird's-eye view. Height still had "to go" on the right bank of the river, but I decided to swing vingover and drain height. Thought to sit directly on the the camp, but I'm confused with pointers column directions to places in the world, transfixed in the middle of BC, and then I sat down beside yurts for camping. How nice to receive greetings of friends and all the witnesses of flight! We're with Andrew made plans with a sense of the dome and went to gather to discuss the flight characteristics and the possibility of further flights. The result was taken as follows: "The Onion start" as we dubbed reject. Since its area is very small and is bordered by cliffs.

Researchers found that in the U.S. state of Washington is 150 thousand people in the face of the threat posed by a small lake. Mountain Renir is 108 km southeast of Seattle and included in the chain of the Cascade Mountains, stretching along the coast of North America to 1100 km. Its peak rises to 4392 m above sea level and often hidden behind clouds. Surrounded by mountain glaciers 26 lies a small lake only 15 x 20 m. It is melt-water.

Sulfur dioxide rising from the volcano crater, penetrating into the water of the lake, he takes her to react and form sulfuric acid. Acid changes the structure of rocks that made fragile. The volcano is one million years. During this time volcanic gas loosened rocks. The collapse may overwhelm the top, and then on settlements located under the mountain, attacked a landslide. On the slopes mountains there are trees buried under the cover of soil and stones.

Probably, landslides, triggered by release of volcanic gases, have already been on Renire. They developed a speed of 80 km per hour, and swept away everything in its path. 25-ton piece of rock that was once the top of the Fe-Ner, is now in the valley near the village of Ortingom. According to the calculations of scientists every 500-1 000 years to happen Renire similar disasters. Another lake-killer is in Wyoming in Yellowstone National Park. Alpine lake covers an area of 350 square kilometers and located in the southeastern part of the park. 10 000 geysers and geothermal sources say that this is a region of volcanic activity. At the bottom of the lake, scientists found the top and the height of 30 m, covering an area equal to five football fields. Under the bottom of the lake at a distance of only 5 km runs rasskalennaya magma, which has a temperature of 500 degrees. It threatens the geothermal breaks. When volcanic gases break through the water, the lake is a giant wave, spreading around the stones.
