Что общего, №2

Казалось бы, что общего между вулканом Агунг на Бали (3142, или 3048, или 3031, или 3014) и устройством под названием Компьютер?
Однако, рассматривая картинку рельефа острова http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Bali_Mts_Agung_and_Batur.jpg?uselang=ru#globalusage, обнаружил, что её использовали как показательный пример "Трёхмерной карты поверхности участка земной суши, построенной при помощи компьютерной программы" в статье Компьютер. О как. http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9A%D0%BE%D0%BC%D0%BF%D1%8C%D1%8E%D1%82%D0%B5%D1%80?uselang=ru



Wikipedia, которую нужно опровергнуть. Но сначала прислушаемся к ней:

There are two routes up the mountain; one from Besakih proceeds to the higher western peak and starts at approximately 1,100 m (3,610 ft). The second route, reputed to take four hours (one-way), proceeds to the southern peak and commences higher from Pura Pasar Agung, near Selat. A path connecting the southern ascent with the western ascent is available during the dry season. Cecilie Scott[7] provides an account of the ascent from Pura Pasar Agung to the southern peak. Greg Slayden describes a climb from Besakih[8] claimed to have taken a remarkable four and a half hours to the peak and Ken Taylor[9] that took much longer and included getting lost.

Guides are available in Besakih and also in Pura Pasar Agung. The mountain can also be climbed without a guide. The climb from Besakih is quite tough. It is sometimes tackled as a single climb generally starting about 10 p.m. for a dawn arrival at the peak and sometimes with an overnight camp about three quarters of the way up. The climb from Pura Pasar Agung generally starts around 2:30 a.m. for a dawn arrival. It is far harder than the more popular Balinese climb up Gunung Batur. It is not a mountain that needs ropes and not quite high enough for altitude sickness, but adverse weather conditions develop quickly and warm waterproof clothing is required and should be carried. A dawn arrival at the top is recommended in order to avoid clouds that typically cover the top from approximately 9 a.m. onwards. There is no water available along the route.

For the Besakih route proceed through the temple complex then continue on a path that travels continuously upwards on a steep narrow spur through open forest and jungle most of the way. There is little potential to get lost until the route opens up towards the top where the correct route doubles backwards. Many climbers miss this turn and continue up a small valley which can be climbed out of with some difficulty.
