The light at the end of the worldMonday 26 December 2016, 12h00

After sailing around the Antarctic, the competitors in the Vendée Globe have to round Cape Horn and then a few miles further on, pass the tip of Patagonia, Staten Island, under the winking eye of the lighthouse at the end of the world. Not far from Cape Horn and its infamous cape, there is another island stretching out from the western tip of Tierra del Fuego: Staten Island (Isla de los Estados).
While Cape Horn is just a bare rock, the Island at the end of the world is a piece of land fully deserving its name. With 125 lakes dotted around it, its relief is very hilly with its highest peak at around 800 metres. For twenty-five days a month, rain and more often snow, falls on its black rocks and its lush greenery is constantly swept by very violent winds. Fog and mist are present all the time and when the sun finally peeks through, it is with great difficulty that it sends the temperature up to 5°C. But that is enough of the geography lesson, as this island has another story to tell us.

Another Robinson Crusoe

There was a man who was a bit crazy, who preferred living his dreams rather than heeding the wise and boring voice of reason. One day by chance, as he was sailing in the area with a few friends, he decided to go for a walk on the island they were just passing - Staten Island. With a final wave, the boat sailed away. André (who??) feeling relaxed strolled along the beach and rocks with his hands in his pocket. But one rock is very much like another and one twisted tree is like another too. Within a few hours, André was lost. Shivering with the cold he only found his friends again four days later, Starving, in bare feet, exhausted, he had been trapped by the wilderness.

However, in spite of the nasty punishment dished out by this island, the adventurer fell in love with it. He found nature there in its wildest and purest state. There were no evidence of man on this bit of land. A little over a year later in December 1995, after learning how to use a bow and arrow in his garden in La Rochelle, André nicknamed Yul, set off again this time to spend three months alone on his bit of land at the end of the world. Carrying a tent, a bow and arrows, he intended to live there, by hunting and fishing for three months in the southern summer.

He was to endure cold, wet and windy weather. His clothes were soaked, as he could not find a place that was flat and dry enough to put up his tent. Like a bear, André took refuge in a little cave. He found it stifling, and that was largely due to the smoke from his fire, but above all there were simply no windows! So he built himself a shelter in the trees… Finally he was dry and could breathe easily. Tossed around by the wind, he was initially worried, but got used to it. When the thunder rang out, he resigned himself to saying farewell to his canvas tent! One day, while strolling on the Eastern tip of the island, he discovered the ruins of a lighthouse made of wood. Back in France, a few weeks later, André began to do everything he could to rebuild that lighthouse and promised himself that by the year 2000, a light would shine again in the dark south. His idea was thought to be whimsical, but gradually attracted the attention and interest of those who heard about it.

A lighthouse in Tierra del Fuego

Built in 1884 by Argentina, this lighthouse was very different from those we usually see. 70 metres above sea level, an octagon measuring 6.50 metres high and 11 metres wide was built with a pointed roof. Behind its front looking out to sea, there were seven lamps, which used rapeseed oil. Their beam was projected in a field of 93° and reached 15 miles thanks to some huge lenses. It was an attractive construction, with two rooms inside: one was a dormitory for the three keepers and the other was full of supplies and tools. Left alone for weeks on end during the storms, these men, who ensured that the light kept burning, took it in turns to take care of the seven flames, which each consumed a kilo of oil per day.

In spite of its usefulness, the lighthouse was abandoned in 1902. Jules Verne, inspired by the idea of this distant island and by the conditions experienced by the three men, wrote the novel «The Lighthouse at the End of the World.» In 1905, when this book was published, the lighthouse and writer had both closed their eyes. 96 years later, charmed by this book, enchanted by the island and its history, and full of energy with the support of a group of loyal friends, some financial partners and with the agreement of the government of Argentina, André saw his not so crazy dream come true: rebuilding the Lighthouse at the End of the World.

So, since 28th February 1998, the island at the end of the world is winking again at sailors, who pass… If you want to see something special, head for La Rochelle on France's Atlantic coast and close to the beach you will discover a replica of the Lighthouse at the End of the World, which since February 2000, has been showing the way for mariners.

Ahí va mi regalo de Navidad. Bueno, mio y de Google translator



La luz al final del mundoLunes 26 de diciembre de 2016, 12h00

Después de navegar alrededor de la Antártida, los competidores en el Vendée Globe tienen que rodear el Cabo de Hornos y luego unos kilómetros más allá, pasar la punta de la Patagonia, Staten Island, bajo el ojo guiño del faro al final del mundo. No lejos del Cabo de Hornos y su infame capa, hay otra isla que se extiende desde el extremo occidental de la Tierra del Fuego: Isla de los Estados.
Mientras que el Cabo de Hornos es sólo una roca desnuda, la Isla al final del mundo es un pedazo de tierra que merece su nombre. Con 125 lagos salpicados alrededor, su relieve es muy accidentado con su pico más alto a unos 800 metros. Durante veinticinco días al mes, la lluvia y más a menudo la nieve, cae sobre sus rocas negras y su exuberante vegetación es constantemente barrida por vientos muy violentos. La niebla y la niebla están presentes todo el tiempo y cuando el sol finalmente mira a través, es con gran dificultad que envía la temperatura hasta 5 ° C. Pero eso es suficiente de la lección de geografía, ya que esta isla tiene otra historia que contar.

Otro Robinson Crusoe

Había un hombre que estaba un poco loco, que prefería vivir sus sueños en lugar de escuchar la sabia y aburrida voz de la razón. Un día por casualidad, mientras navegaba en la zona con unos cuantos amigos, decidió dar un paseo por la isla que estaban pasando - Staten Island. Con una ola final, el barco navegó lejos. André (que ??) sintiéndose relajado paseó por la playa y las rocas con las manos en el bolsillo. Pero una roca es muy parecida a otra y un árbol retorcido es como otro también. En pocas horas, André se perdió. Temblando de frío, sólo encontró a sus amigos de nuevo cuatro días después, hambriento, con los pies descalzos, agotado, había quedado atrapado en el desierto.

Sin embargo, a pesar del castigo desagradable de esta isla, el aventurero se enamoró de ella. Encontró allí la naturaleza en su estado más salvaje y más puro. No había evidencia de hombre en este pedazo de tierra. Un poco más de un año más tarde, en diciembre de 1995, después de aprender a usar el arco y la flecha en su jardín de La Rochelle, André lo apodó Yul, partió de nuevo esta vez para pasar tres meses solo en su pedazo de tierra al final de la mundo. Llevaba una tienda de campaña, un arco y flechas, tenía la intención de vivir allí, por la caza y la pesca durante tres meses en el verano del sur.

Tenía que soportar el clima frío, húmedo y ventoso. Su ropa estaba empapada, ya que no podía encontrar un lugar que fuera lo suficientemente plano y seco como para montar su tienda. Como un oso, André se refugió en una pequeña cueva. Él lo encontró sofocante, y que era en gran parte debido al humo de su fuego, pero sobre todo no había simplemente ventanas! Así que se construyó un refugio en los árboles ... Finalmente estaba seco y podía respirar fácilmente. Arrojado por el viento, al principio estaba preocupado, pero se acostumbró. Cuando sonó el trueno, se resignó a decir adiós a su tienda de lona! Un día, al pasear por el extremo oriental de la isla, descubrió las ruinas de un faro de madera. De vuelta en Francia, unas semanas más tarde, André comenzó a hacer todo lo posible para reconstruir ese faro y se prometió que para el año 2000, una luz volvería a brillar en el sur de la oscuridad. Se pensó que su idea era caprichosa, pero poco a poco atrajo la atención y el interés de quienes lo escucharon.

Un faro en Tierra del Fuego

Construido en 1884 por la Argentina, este faro era muy diferente de los que solemos ver. 70 metros sobre el nivel del mar, se construyó un octógono de 6,50 metros de altura y 11 metros de ancho con un techo puntiagudo. Detrás de su frente mirando hacia el mar, había siete lámparas, que utilizaban aceite de colza. Su haz fue proyectado en un campo de 93 ° y alcanzó 15 millas gracias a unas enormes lentes. Era una construcción atractiva, con dos habitaciones en el interior: una era un dormitorio para los tres encargados y la otra estaba llena de suministros y herramientas. Dejados solos durante semanas, durante las tormentas, estos hombres, que se aseguraron de que la luz siguiera ardiendo, se turnaban para ocuparse de las siete llamas, que cada una consumía un kilo de aceite por día.

A pesar de su utilidad, el faro fue abandonado en 1902. Jules Verne, inspirado por la idea de esta isla lejana y por las condiciones experimentadas por los tres hombres, escribió la novela «El faro en el fin del mundo». , Cuando este libro fue publicado, el faro y el escritor ambos habían cerrado sus ojos. 96 años más tarde, encantado por este libro, encantado por la isla y su historia, y lleno de energía con el apoyo de un grupo de amigos leales, algunos socios financieros y con el acuerdo del gobierno de Argentina, André vio su no tan loco Sueño hecho realidad: la reconstrucción del Faro en el Fin del Mundo.

Así, desde el 28 de febrero de 1998, la isla al final del mundo vuelve a guiñar a los marineros que pasan ... Si quieres ver algo especial, dirígete a La Rochelle en la costa atlántica de Francia y cerca de la playa descubrirás una réplica del Faro del Fin del Mundo, que desde febrero de 2000, ha estado mostrando el camino para los marineros.

[Prometeo]

Están pirados, no sólo por ellos, por poner su propia vida en peligro, sino por que están acostumbrando al oso a ir a buscar comida a otros barcos. De esa forma ponen en peligro la vida de otros navegantes y la del propio Oso, porque lo normal es que si uno se ve en un trance parecido por sorpresa, saque de rifle para espantar o matar un depredador que de un zarpazo te arranca la cabeza.

La fauna salvaje es para observar de lejos, intentando no dejar ningún tipo de impronta en ella.

Mal asunto eso de darle de comer.... Se veia venir que al final el oso acabaría izando la mayor....
