This video fragment, is taken in July, 2005 during a hike on Gorganam - to one of ridges of the Ukrainian Carpathians. I any more do not remember at which top we during this moment stood, but the panorama opens more than characteristic. The gloomy sky, huge stone looses covered by bright green lichens, thrickets of zherep, pastures below and cuttings down on an opposite slope.
Video about an ascention on the Eklizi-burun summit (plateau Chatyr-Dag, mountains of Crimea) in February 2006. Visibility practically zero, we go being guided exclusively on GPS. Not reaching 200 meters up to top the decision to curtail and begin descent to the opposite side of mountain was accepted.
Video from a hike across Crimea in January 2007. We on Gurzufskoj jajle, in 100 meters from Arbour of winds, have hidden under sosenkami. Weather is excellent - a blizzard, a strong wind, zero visibility. We enjoy a life and even we have time to remove video.
One more video fragment about our hike on winter Carpathians. This time we move in snowshoes. A snow in a zone of a wood very soft and without snowshoes we would tease in a snow with speed of a turtle. On video it is visible, that we go with quite decent speed.
Video from a winter hike on Carpathians in December, 2007. We rise on a Petros from pass Sheshul. The ice crust fragile, a snow constantly fails under legs(foots), that rather complicates movement.
the pedestrian winter hike across mountain Crimea From January, 5 till January, 7th, 2013 (they are days off in honour of Christmas) takes place. In the program of a hike: the Valley of ghosts, plateau Demerdzhi, cave MAN. Join, still there are 3 free places.
I do not know what for, but last time I began to be blog-interested . By means of rss I publish announcements of clauses(articles) in several blog-systems.
in the Autumn 2005 I have bought two winter sleeping bags Bergson Camper 3. These are excellent sleeping bags, however universal them you will not name. Camper 3 - a sleeping bag inexpensive (nearby $50), very warm (up to-25), very big and... heavy
