Circulation on Bjakam.
Paul Dulman.
Travel on stone quarries situated near Moscow remains though and
Popular, but it is far not harmless entertainment.
And THAT, actually, I here have forgotten and that wished to see. Such
The rhetorical question for certain arises at everyone, who
For the first time, on own will gets to a cave. Asked
Itself and I. Answers at everyone the. My answer "number one"
Was literally before eyes. It has appeared, that for all the
Life I never saw kromeshnoj darkness. Such, that though
Eye prick out. So it became dark, when we with my companion
Explorer have stopped to have a rest - walking on all fours
Very much energozatratnyj a way of movement: have straightened a back
Also have switched off small lamps. Still for about a minute in open eyes
The rests of light flashed and the narrowed pupil was physically felt.
So darkly does not happen, even if to be closed in the dark at night
Bathroom. And still in Bjakah it is silent...
Bjaki - they the Guryev stone quarries - big underground
"System" near to Tula and hardly far away from Moscow. It
The greatest and, that is important, pure and "uninhabited"
Stone quarries in Moscow suburbs. To the Guryev stone quarries, on
To the extreme measure, three hundred years. Inhabitants were engaged in limestone extraction
Neighbouring villages, and the stone went to Moscow and to Tula
On the river the Sturgeon. Last workings out in Guryev
Stone quarries are dated 37th year of the last century. A way of extraction
Stone has seemed to new owners of a life inefficient and
Humiliating human advantage. Therefore extraction have stopped, and
All inputs and exits have blown up. But it is inaccurate. One
The opening - ventilating shtrek - all the same remained. And here already
Two ten years Bjaki - very popular place at temporary
Staying idle cave explorers, tolkinistov and other carried away
People. However, is and it is simple the habitues having
The remote relation as to speleology (strictly speaking, Bjaki
Pass on department spelestologii - sciences about anthropogenous
Underground constructions), and to Tolkienu and it is simply pleasant
Spending here a free time to the extent of the own
Understanding. In general, Bjaki - a place tusovochnoe, practically
Sanatorium. Some tens kilometres shtrekov and galleries,
Ideally adapted for extreme rest... "Season" at
spelestologov begins with an autumn season of rains,
Comes to an end in the late spring, when already warmly. An explanation
Idle time: "That in the summer under the earth to sit?!". Though is and
Fans...
Input in Bjaki - a small hole in high coast of the river the Sturgeon, in
Which I have moved down on a dirty slope forward feet. Before
It the bag has departed to a hole with things. The usual tourist
The backpack here is not necessary. Educated go in Bjaki with
Transport bags - "trances" which carry in hands. On
The extreme case will fit also a bag. In its bottlenecks
To have to throw before itself, and then to select. One
The habitue went on Bjakam with a cover from a kayak...
Well here I have driven - "was threw" in Bjaki. I look round. A beam
Small lamp snatches out enough - taki the big premise with
Smoked low (very low!!!) a ceiling, fairly
The littered. Batteries of steam heating and a detail rolled even
Armour-clad beds. "Do not pay attention, will be further
More purely. And all is smoked because any morons at an input
Fires burnt down. Where magazine? Here somewhere laid... Probably,
Has ended or on souvenirs have filched... "- has responded to mine
Amazement my explorer. The magazine is a book of registration
Visitors. In him it is fixed, who and when "was threw" and
"Was accordingly threw out" from Bjak. On it it was possible to learn, with
Whom to expect the meeting, and with whom have missed each other. Without it
In any way. You will lose the way and even will not search. Speak, once in
Bjaki about check kriminogennoj situations
Local militiamen "were threw" some. Without an explorer,
Equipments and preparations. Blukali some days, while them on
Light divine has not deduced casual spelestolog. To lose the way here
It is really possible. One exit, the big area, an abundance
The confused courses, monotonous, absolutely not not fixed
Memory an izvestnjakovo-clay landscape, not everywhere
Present and not to all a clear marking to it promote. In
The general whoever you were - be registered. But the magazine is not present...
The sheet pulled out from a notebook restores tradition.
The first people have met to us in ten minutes
kolenopreklonennogo travel on stone quarries - two bedaubed
Clay of the girl with one sat down small lamp for two. To
To that time for a cinciput I had a fresh cone - result
Instinctive desire to straighten a back. "System
Has greeted ", - has commented on mine" oh... "An explorer. Maidens
Have straight off asked:
"It not your companion in green overalls lays in the right
To trouser-leg? "-" and what with it? "-" It seems, drunk... "-" Perhaps and
Ours... "
The right trouser-leg - the name shtreka. Accordingly is and
The left trouser-leg. And still TSentralka, Gljukalo, a tomb of the Boatswain,
Hippopotamus, the Teapot, hotel "At the victim speleoluha", Komandirsky,
Good luck and so the other... Names of forks, shtrekov,
Parking and simply sign places. And a companion has appeared really
Ours. Good as subsequently it has appeared, the person. Simply
Has got tired and temporarily worked as "the Flint compass" - specified
Road to the house. When have found - have decided not to touch: it is dressed warmly,
Let will have a sleep.
Habitues of stone quarries share on "teapots" and "the respected
People ". Well with teapots all is clear. In brief - enthusiastic
Neophytes, go in well picked up equipment, sometimes in
Helmets, as a rule, tolkinisty. The name -
"bjakmany". Talk blagoglupostjami and after two-three zabrosov
Consider itself so skilled to drive here others
"Teapots". Recently them, according to people
Respected, became too much. With them are reconciled and in the help not
Refuse - under the earth all the same there is no place for the opened
Antipathies.
The classical example of "teapot" was on the general walk in
Honour of birthday hardly probable not the main thing of "the dear person"
- The taxi driver. There, where nobody felt superfluous,
There was one young man who has said
The experienced tirade that it from Ljuberets, recently with the
The girl has looked a film "Lord Kolets" and here now they
Here, very much it is pleasant to them and in general... And one rushed from the thick
The writing-book which has been wrapped up in wall-paper, also offered all passers
To leave there to it for memory record. Refused seldom: "teapot"
Has the right on small zamorochki. In general at me
There was a seditious thought, that some - at all all, units
- Go down under the earth because on a surface
Feel uncomfortably and are perceived by associates inadequately.
Only here, in the conditions of outer darkness, invariable
Humidity and temperature, the girl, despaired suits the
Female destiny, will feel it confident, and imaginary
The patient of all psychiatric clinics of capital at last will calm down
Also becomes by itself.
My explorer and that person which laid in a trouser-leg, and
Its other friends - people respected. In Bjaki go years
Ten. That is why "teapots" know them, and they of "teapots" -
No. And on a question "where stand", often respond "and to you
What for ". From here and the answer" number two "- I went here behind warmth
Human dialogue...
And there were we in Good luck. The parking name corresponded it
To the maintenance. Really, practically square room with
High enough - approximately "metre fifty" - with
Traces of a chisel a ceiling (to enthusiastic girls tell,
That a ceiling have scratched helmets "speleoluhi"). Near to
obvodnennyh shtrekov and it is far from brisk "highways".
Really good luck in which with comfort take places
Five persons. However to good luck it was necessary to go almost hour, and all
Advantages of our number have first grown dim against
Extreme exhaustion and the become numb back.
Back, cones and grazes on a head are treated by cognac,
Buckwheat cereal with tushenkoj, conversations on music, cinema and
To the literature (they like not only alcohol, but also Jarmusch), a guitar
And armejsko-everyday bajkami. Therapeutic effect
It is supported with light of several candles and homoeopathic
Dose klaustrofobii. In general fear to remain without light under
The earth, in an hour of walking from an exit (which all is independent
Equally you will not find) pleasantly tickles nerves. Therefore a small lamp,
The candle and lighter always should be near at hand. And it is better
In total in a double copy...
Morning it is defined on hours, we have breakfast and we go to walk.
Actually, in walks and dialogue and the composition baek spend under
The earth time inhabitants Bjak. Bajki the standard: "You there not
Go - here go, and that you will meet "the White cave explorer" and
Never you will leave "or" You there do not go - here go, and that
Red dogs pogonjatsja, never you will leave ". To red
To dogs me "walked". It is a non-standard route for
"Teapot" (alas, I too it). In dogs hardly more than wet clay,
Hardly already passes, hardly more low a ceiling. Main
Sight - a narrow vertical crack, metres ten
In height, with natekami waters. If to climb through on it upwards it is possible
To get to a small room-cell. And a little bit there to sit,
To think of meaning of the life. So "teapots" usually pass
initsiatsiju and, actually, cease to be "teapots".
It is realistic having estimated features of own figure, I am polite
I refuse dedication, simply I am afraid to get stuck.
Bjaki on a map are similar to a sprawling tree, like
The Lebanese cedar. There is a trunk - TSentralka - such central
The prospectus, and branches departing from a trunk - forking,
Crossed and coiling shtreki different height, width and
Extents. Besides, is still "right" and "left"
shtreki rather TSentralki. "Right" are less studied and not
Are recommended for independent walks "teapots". To
"Right" Red dogs, for example, concern. In TSentralke
Appoint meetings spelestologi. Here study
Independently to walk "teapots". On TSentralke "are thrown out" from
Bjak. Once in TSentralke the manhole rolled.
Someone's thin joke. In general to joke here like. These jokes
Differ any heroic senselessness. One bring
In Bjaki 3-litre jars with solenjami and fresh eggs.
Others - pure bed-clothes. The third - sewer
Hatches. Underground humour concerns and Gljukalo - suspended for
Cord a cobble-stone. In incorrect light of a lantern to the uninitiated
It seems, that it is groundless.
The general extent Bjak is not known while to anybody. Figures
Are called different - from 80 to 160 kilometres. True, more possibly
Everything, in the middle. And the first it is learnt by the Taxi driver. It
Is engaged toposemkoj stone quarries. Now on a map
42 kilometres are put, how much remains still, he does not know even.
The taxi driver - the person legendary. The professional rescuer
From Tula, it drives on caves of group of children, learns
speleoturizmu. Bjaki - the first step of its tourist school. Bjaki
- its residence. The name of the Taxi driver is fanned by legends and
It is covered by glory. One of episodes - struggle with local. Local
Inhabitants, it is necessary to tell, do not like visitors Bjak and in every possible way
Try to play a dirty trick on them. That a smoke candle will throw,
"Teapot" lonely will offend. Such entertainments in village. Once
The local have filled up with scrap metal-beds, batteries and
Other - an input in Bjaki. Spelestologi have quickly disassembled a blockage and
Have pursued "jokers". The taxi driver has caught up their the first. Feeling
Humour at the local have beaten off on a root. Since then, knowing customs
Natives, the Taxi driver carries with itself gas model PM...
The exit from Bjak personally for me became the most pleasant part
Travel. The more close I came nearer to an exit, the it is more
Accelerated a step and that fought a head about a ceiling more strongly. But never
I so did not rejoice to a sunlight, let and diluted
Rain clouds. Chirping of pair sparrows was presented
Angelic singing, and the world around was perceived is fresh,
As never. From here and "the answer number three" - I went in Bjaki,
To leave them. And, probably, sometime to return.
