Legend

Not one legend is folded about the dining area. But there is one most popular story that everyone is told. Sometime, dragons lived in these places. On the mountain itself there was a certain principality that was conquered by one of the dragons. As a given animal, the principality pledged annually to give one 16-year-old girl. Local residents prayed and asked the dragon to do no longer, but he did not hear. However, it existed that if there would be a brave young girl and would voluntarily give up to excitement, the principality would immediately get rid of the dragon.

Naturally, such a brave girl was found. She was the daughter of Prince and had a magnificent appearance. Father defeated the young princess, as he could, but came the day when it is necessary to give tribute. The girl was changed into the outfit of the maid, hid in the crowd. And when the dragon came, she rushed into the mouth of the beast breathing fire.

At that time, the dragon issued a terrible roar, caught fire. After the disappearance of smoke, people saw only the charred body of the dragon. At this place now there is a dining area.

This story does not end. It turns out that the girl was secretly in love with the shepherd named Kazbek. From the mountain, he watched the sacrificial act of his beloved. Seeing the petrified body of the young princes, he prayed to the gods, asking them to turn him into the mountain. Higher forces heard him and fulfilled a request; Thus, the shepherd now always protects his beloved.

Mountain climbing

You can climb to the dining room from Ingushetia, where the bandwidth for tourists has already been canceled in the Jairk district. In this case, the ascent begins in the village of Beney. From the settlement leads ancient road Under the name "path of ancestors." If you start with Vladikavkaz, you will also have to get to the settlement of Beney. To date, only 89 people live in the village, and according to the local legend, the name is translated as "dead warriors". Not far from the settlement there is a tent town, but it works only in the season when it is possible to climb the mountain.

During the ascent on the dining room, Vladikavkaz, you can see a unique attraction - the sanctuary of mint-villages.

Ingushetia in the 19th century accepted Islam, but many evidence of ancient beliefs remained in the territory of the republic. Back in 1925, the sacrifice ceremonies were held in this sanctuary. In the traditions of the people, the customs are still preserved to give a tribute to aquatic mother or Hin-Nan. For example, at the wedding ceremony you can often see how the bride breaks the egg chicken at the stream, this is an old tradition to give a tribute to the water mother so that there is no drought.

Mountain dining room (2993 m)

Mountain dining room is one of the largest in the rocky ridge. Located south of Vladikavkaz and is clearly visible from almost anyone his area. The distance to her from the city is about 15 kilometers. In clear weather, the entire array extended from the west to the East is clearly charged. Mountain is eastern (extreme) in a rocky ridge in North Ossetia. Geographically refers to the Caylam Range (Ingush Republic). From the East, it is limited to a deep downgrade - Ger-Chech's pass, in the West - the Baltic Gorge, which flows the Terek River. South of her lies the Valley of the Army River (Ingush Republic).

The array has two clearly pronounced peaks, between which several large gendarmes rise. Eastern vertex (2993 m) is the main one. It has the kind of a huge flat table, crouched grass. She gave mountain name - dining room. From the main vertex, the smooth arc is moving to the north-west long comb, steeply falling into the valley of the Terek River. It is called the "lion mane". South of him stretched the gorge Vagai-choc. Here the steep walls fall
the vertices dissected with narrow satellites. Steep crests coated in the top of the grass are descended to the north, lower - the thick forest and shrubs. The Western peak (2703 m) is separated from the main vertex in a deep narrow jumper. It has the form of a large cone with scaling ribs, evenly falling down in all directions. Wears the name "head" dining room.

Ossetians are called Madhokh Madhokh (Mother Mother), and Ingushi - Mat Lam, having the same translation. On the east ridge, not far from the main vertex, is the ancient sanctuary. Curious legend associated with this mountain. Long ago, when cyclops were found in the caves and thick forests, in the kingdom, located north of the present dining area, one of these monsters had fallen, conquered him and left tribute: annually in the same day he had to give him the most beautiful seventeen-year-old girl . In the same hour, the monster appeared and, not paying attention to the heartbreaking crying of the inhabitants, carried away the girl to eat her later. So it lasted for many years. But here he told the mystery of the monsters: if the most beautiful girl sacrifies himself, herself will lead him to meet him and rush to the mouth, the monster will die, and the people will get rid of the humiliating and severe Dani. In that year, Seventeen years old was the Beauty-Tsarevna. From early childhood, his father kept her location, fearing that she could become a victim of bloodthirsty cyclopa. Nor Tail Father the truth from his daughter, she still learned about the monster and about trouble, the people comprehended, and about the fact that she is the most beautiful of the peers in their kingdom. Fat day has come. The sobbing crowds went to the plain to convey the monster another sacrifice. And among them hid prini, secretly escaped from the castle. When the monster approached people, a princess of indescribable beauty broke out of the crowd and he rushed into a mouth. A terrible roar rang out, the flame broke out, and everything clouded smoke. When smoke was dissipated, a mountain was appeared in front of the amazed people - beauty-Tsarevna, lying on her deathbed. At this time, the beloved princes, a brave young shepherd named Kazbek, high in the mountains of sheep. Hearing the noise, he looked from the top down and saw the Tsarevna rushed into the monster's mouth. Unable to transfer the death of your beloved, he rushed down from the rock, having time to shout that it would be better to turn his mountain. And immediately turned the young shepherd in the dugorby mountain, ascending high above all the mountains to guard the peace of his beloved.

What was the basis for such a legend? Most likely - the outline of the mountain. Looking around to the contours of the mountain (it is more convenient to observe from the northern part of the city in clear weather, immediately after sunset), you can see your head with fasteners, pretty clear outlines of the face, chest, belly, legs. On the coat of arms of Vladikavkaz, created in 1873, the silhouette of the dining room is one of component parts.

After 1 hour walk, at the end of the gorge, the road turns to the right up and takes to the Museum-estate of Achriev, located on a wide herbaceous south-west ridge.
The route continues on the gorge, which narrows, turning into a canyon with sheer rock-grassy slopes. After 1 hour, an approach is approaching a rocky step, a brave gorge. The eight meter metal staircase hangs on top. Rock up the stairs and again movement along the bottom of the gorge. Gradually the gorge expands, the slopes lose their height, become position. The gorge turns into a large beam. Ahead opens a rock massif of the dining area. To the left, cool grassy slopes are removed on the southern ridge of the "head" dining room.
The duration of the route from the development of roads from the Ezminskaya HPP is 4-5 hours.

Route 17, to "head" dining room from the south (1b), option 2 (Scheme 4)
At the end of the gorge from turning the road to the Museum-Manor Achriev, rolling left, lifting 250-300 meters along the steep shallow shine under the rock. Here it is necessary to find the beginning of the trail, which is among the rocks of the right side of the gorge. Under the bottom of this gorge, the first option approach to the route. Looping among the cliffs, smoothly gaining a height, the trail leads under the herbaceous slopes of the eastern side of the southern crest of the "head" of the dining room. For steep (up to 45 gr.) Herbal slopes rise to the South Comb. To the left is visible a large color vertex on which there is a repeater. This is Mount Dicks (2196 m). From the saddle of the southern ridge good view In all directions. A panorama of the array of the dining area opens.

Route passes time - full day day. Both options for the approach require the presence of medium physical training, the initial movement skills in the mountains, tourist clothes, food and drinking. Some difficulty represents climbing on the metal staircase in the gorge, as well as steep herbaceous slopes when leaving the South Comb.

Route 18, on the "head" of the dining room from the south (1a) (Scheme 4; Fig. 1; Photo 3)
The path to the top goes along the wide southern ridge, the peeling grass, withdrawing to the beginning of a dumping couliror. Rock up the cooler, then on his right side under the rock. In the middle of the sidelines, turning right, movement along a narrow steep rock-grass shelf with a length of 50 meters, at the end of which an unpleasant psychological area with a protruding rock. Further left up steep (up to 50 gr.) Herbal chute on the ridge. On simple cliffs 1-2 k. Ate. Climb on top.
From the development of roads from the Ezminskaya HPP 7-8 hours.
The route requires participants to climb the knowledge and skills of initial climbing training. It is necessary to have ice axes, rope. There is no water on the route.
From the West to the top of the "head" the dining room leads rocky croup. Passed R. P. Proskuryakov and estimated as 2a to. Sl.

So yesterday I was on the top of the dining area.

Another dream came true, I am happy, and all this thanks to Ilzu Matiyev, who this time became the very good wizard who makes dreams.

Probably, everyone knows that climb on Matloam (so in Ingush called the dining room) was my big dream of two two years old. Last year I did not plan to implement it, but at some point it seemed to me that there is a chance ... But it was not that chance, and the dream was not realized. I was then very upset, although I understood that at that moment it would be wrong to climb the mountain, but the desire was too great.
I have a nasty character, and if I want something, I find any ways to carry out the desired one, and this is being done, it is done, so that anyone does not move the resulting case.

On that day, when last year I could not climb to the dining room, I left Vladikavkaz and took a picture of it from there. This photo has a name: "The mountain that was not allowed for me."
When I realized that the plan of climbing acquires real features, I was hoping that from the top I would be able to take a picture of Vladikavkaz and thus show all the language, I'm supposed to me that I did not succeed in the language: we were on top of the clouds, but Vladikavkaz, naturally, under them.

However, well

The idea of \u200b\u200bclimbing the mountain lived in me, grew and multiplied, but I could not find decisions how to make it all to be, while Ileza's profile did not find in the FB, where there were photos from the dining room and inviting everyone to her climb I typed arrogance and wrote that I received the answer: yes, come, try.

Since then, near the dream began to live and hope.

After the campaign to Ise Kodzoev, Ilzus promised me ascent, and last week clicked with the FB to find another wishing. We hoped that besides me there are still girls, and they were found. However, at the time of the direct collection of people who wanted to send to the foot of Matloam from women were only me and Renada, who, too, unfortunately, did not rise and remained downstairs. Thus, 17 guys climbed on the mountain and me. A cool company, if we consider that the whole hipish with the collection team was treated only for me to be not the only woman. But I, apparently, the fate is so. As one of my good friend says: "Lenka is always at the head of the male team."

Ascent, we started from the village of Baini, however, in contrast to the plan, which described timag82. A couple of years ago, we did not go on the road. Due to the fact that the start of the climb was delayed at a pretty decent time, our leader decided to "cut" and the initial part of the lift we passed on the grass and at very high speed. It became, perhaps, the main reason for the fact that when we went to the trail, I got my head, laid my ears, and I thought with horror that I would have to descend. But, thank God, there were good people nearby. I was handed a stick, we were drunk and told to go in our pace. And I went.
The first stage of the path to the spring was the hardest. But a small rest, eaten cucumber and interesting storywhich Ilz told, restored forces, and then it became much easier. The old-timers surrounding me, which have repeatedly walked up, scared serpentine. And it was to the beginning of Serpentine I was alone. The first part of the group was already far ahead, and the lagging behind is still very early. I frightened a little bit, but since the path is alone, and it is impossible to get lost, I went.

Serpentine turned out to be difficult but quite overcome obstacle. The forces attached to the fact that I was alone. I have long known that all difficult things are easier for me alone, since it is not necessary to spend energy to maintain unnecessary conversations and relationships. You can go in a convenient pace, make you comfortable stopping and not think about others. You yourself are with you and this is good. Slowly I reached the top, by the time the arrived cloud was plunged into the milk. It became cool and easy. Further the path was quite smooth, I became very good.
Stepping pretty cheagle, in the distance on the elevation, I saw a person's figure, which as an eagle peered into the distance. The first thought was that it is waiting for me, but as we approach, it became clear that I'm not waiting for me, but this eagle is well known to me. He, too, apparently, learned me (of course, last year I was in the same pants). Timur was waiting for his comrades, descended by water. I was overporing the phrase, which he met me: "We meet in unexpected places." And for some reason I was flashed: "You can not change the meeting place." (How many people see the same situation in different ways.)

He spent a little me, and then my companions were already waiting for me on a privala. While we were supported by a simple dinner, the phrase "Eight Girls One I" was spinning in my head, although in reality everything looked completely differently: 12 guys and one girl ... But in general, the meaning is understandable. Ilz remembered the film "Thirteenth Warrior".
I was treated with homemade cake. It is very tasty, I must say. Although even cheese sandwiches at that moment appeared to overseas delicacy.

Next was the church of mint-villages, in which the participants of the photo expedition are located for lunch. It's fun to see people with whom you are virtually sign, everyone in one place. In addition to Timur, the table was photographer from Pyatigorsk, Chechen photographer Abdullah Bersaev and a few more people, I am not familiar. Apparently because I'm already tired of tired a little, as well as because of the large number of people around me, mint-villages did not cause great joy. Somehow our meeting was held everyday. But this is also my virtual acquaintance. How many photos I saw with his participation.
We moved on. Here and the horses at the lake. And green meadow. All I see so often in photos of Timur and Abdullah.

We moved further: our goal is the peak of the dining room. Ilzov offers a plan that I did not like: to go around the common road, but straight, descending and climbing the steep slope. Now, already appreciating the situation on the part, I understand that it was correct: from the canopy slope is not visible a stone arch, which is not on any photo from the dining room, except for photos of Ileza. But at that moment I was hard, I barely moving my legs, a stick, which, in general, is designed to help in the campaign, I have already started to inform, because it also needs forces to move. But still climbing the top.
I was in Western: spit on everything and go back - you can not: I'm alone, but there is no strength to go ahead. I am grateful to the two satellites, which at this moment were undeveloped nearby. Ilz, quickly upgraded up, it seems, did not doubt my power and shouted that I climbed faster. In spite of everything we climbed. Unfortunately, below were clouds who closed the view of the underlying city. But it almost did not overster the joy of what we were still able. The hand at the top turned out to be short: we needed to return, too long the rise was detained.

The descent on the gentle slope was much easier to rise, and we went faster, but I slowed down on serpentine, the stones covered with a path, went out of under the feet, and had to go pretty slowly to not fall. Gradually came the evening, began to think and began to rain. We walked, the road did not end. My companions almost went down quickly quickly, I had left with me and a few more people. Ilze also collected a chamber, so we descended with him about one slow pace.

The most amazing thing happened at the end of the trip. When it was completely dark, the clouds scattered and half the moon looked out, which covered us the way. Beinie in the moonlight looked mystically: the stone towers on the right, like ghosts from the past.

For me it turned out to be unexpected immediately after the descent, the desire to re-climb there upstairs. The legs were spared from the body and there was a desire to dismiss them and hang to relax, but the rest of the creature wanted back.

I was afraid that the legs will be sowed this morning. Surprisingly, it's not so bad: the muscles are only a little felt and slightly worried about the knees (yesterday on the last cool rise I seemed to me that I pulled my knees, they laid down and refused to pull the body up).

As a result, there is the following:
- Cucumbers when lifting up the mountain - the coolest product, they really helped me, every eaten cucumber added me forces (and at the same time facilitated a backpack);
- It is necessary to go in its pace, without adjusting to others;
- I was once again convinced that one is always easier;
- Today I feel great and I am the happiest man on earth;
- I want to get up once again on Mattalls.

I was frightened by the fact that the rise on the mountain was difficult, but I want to say that the sale of a dream could not be easy. As practice shows, I am not very afraid of physical exertion, I have other troubles.
From the end of April, I was worried about whether this campaign will be held, I was sure that I could and what I like, I was not mistaken. Now we need to find another dream, and I am very afraid that it will also be connected with Mountain Ingushetia.
