EL TREN DEL FUTURO MAS RAPIDO DEL MUNDO EL HYPERLOOP

El visionario tecnológico Elon Musk, fundador de PayPal, la compañía espacial SpaceX y la empresa de coches eléctricos de alta gama Tesla Motors, ha desvelado un medio de transporte terrestre capaz de circular casi a la velocidad del sonido propulsado por energía solar.

Este sistema revolucionario, llamado Hyperloop, planteado únicamente como un modelo teórico por el momento, consiste en una serie de vagones que circulan encapsulados dentro de un tubo en cuyo interior se generan las condiciones ambientales necesarias para que el vehículo se desplace a 1.220 kilómetros por hora. La barrera del sonido está en 1.234 kilómetros por hora.

ANTONIO DE LA ROSA, DOBLE RETO DE AVENTURA EN SOLITARIO
Hola amigos,
En el año 2014 realizaré 2 expediciones que nunca antes han sido realizadas en el mismo año. En marzo la Travesía Invernal a Alaska por la ruta del Iditarod, a pie y con esquíes de fondo, 1700 Km. atravesando esta región por algunos de los lugares más inhóspitos del planeta, pudiendo además ser el primer español en completar dicha travesía; y el cruce del Atlántico a remo por la ruta Senegal-Guyana Francesa, de 4700 Km., en Octubre, nombrada por algunos marineros como el “Everest” de las rutas transoceánicas por sus fuertes mareas y grandes olas.
Llevo muchos años soñando con hacer estas 2 travesías, y creo que ha llegado el momento de intentarlo, estoy preparado física, mental y técnicamente para ello.

Photos: climbing and rafting the Grand Canyon By Brendan Leonard on 7 January 2014 in Climbing
The Colorado River travels 280 miles through the world-famous Grand Canyon. But is there climbing?

Adventure channel writer Brendan Leonard embarked on what many would consider the adventure of a lifetime – white-water rafting the Grand Canyon, via the Colorado River. 280 miles (450km) over 28 days, down the world's most famous ditch. There's just one little twist: Brendan's not a paddler. He's a climber. His words below.

Probably no one goes on a Grand Canyon river trip to go bouldering. But there are millions of years of exposed rock there. Millions! We figured some of it had to be climbable. We found exactly that — “some of it” was indeed climbable.

When the boats stopped for lunch, or to access a side canyon, or for the night—we explored, following our curiosity along a line of handholds, hiking into side canyons to find blocks big enough to boulder, checking to see if the rock was solid, and making up our own boulder problems and traverses.

Ready to raft

Ready to raft
Multi-day raft trips are monuments to camping, logistical and rigging miracles. “Can I bring...” is always met with “yes,” whether it's 1,600 cans of beer, a guitar, a six-burner stove, several days worth of steaks, multiple dutch ovens, or a crash pad and climbing gear.

Fallen problems

Fallen problems
There’s a specific rarity to a boulder problem down here: If you don’t send it, you can’t come back and try it tomorrow—you’ll be 10 or 20 miles downriver. The next week, you’ll be 80 or 100 miles downriver.

The bottom of the canyon is a playground filled with tons of coal and a few diamonds, and when you find a diamond—a fun V2 traverse near a campsite, a V1 problem on a boulder stuck in the middle of the river—you’re overjoyed to be climbing.

Rapid rafting

Rapid rafting
As a climber, you float past square mile upon square mile of rock, watching for a seam, a crack, a corner, something that looks good, decent, worth stopping for. The good rock does show up, but not at the most opportune time—often you just have to look away as you pass.

Pack rats
15 people living in the backcountry for 28 days requires a vast amount of supplies — tents, camp chairs, fire pans, raft pumps, paco pads, tables, a dozen five-gallon water jugs, 25 gallons of propane, a first aid kit, and nine 8.1-gallon capacity rocket boxes to carry the human waste.

There’s almost no information on the climbing at the bottom of the most famous ditch on earth. No ratings, beta, or expectations. Every so often, we’d find a little chalk, leftover from another climber, weeks or months ago, and we always knew it was someone who arrived like we did—from upriver.

The next year, your name will be down at the bottom of the list of the bajillion people vying for a Grand Canyon river trip permit. You get one day with a rock climbing route, at best. And that’s if you can find the time between all the things that need to happen to keep a raft trip going.

You spend hours each morning and evening building and tearing down camp, and rigging and de-rigging rafts, moving the floating expedition a few miles each day through the most famous canyon in the world.

The trip from the put-in at Lee’s Ferry to the takeout at Pearce Ferry is 280 river miles, floating past multi-tiered expanses of rock up to 4500 feet (1,371m) high along both sides of the river. Most of that rock is unclimbable.

In the moments we did find climbs, we were kids again, trying whatever we wanted, failing sometimes, breaking off handholds and falling on the ground, rowing rafts up to a midstream boulder, plugging in a cam and tying the boat off to it while we explored the rock for holds.
