17-07-2013 Back in the Base camp

I’ve finally made it back to Base camp! With some small  frostbites on my fingers and toes.
My mission is nearly complete - just go back to the Camp 1 for the last time to pick up some staff and tent which was too heavy to take at once today...
However, it would not be so easy with my already black nails toes from frostbites while asscending the summit yesterday. Thank you for all your support!!

16-07-2013 A miracle happend

A miracle happened and I concurred myself at 12.50 today!
My feet stood at the top (7549m) but they were shivering from exhaustion!
I still don’t know how I could make it! Now sleeping in the Camp2 but hopefully tomorrow I’ll come back to the Base camp in the full health!

15-07-2013 Camp 3 (6800m)

I’ve managed to climb to Camp 3 the highest altitude I have ever been!
The only black spot today was this evening when i didn’t find my friend’s tent and was kicked out from another tent... Finally I’m in the right one now and can have some sleep for the final push already tomorrow!

14-07-2013 Back in Camp 2

After very exhausting trekking in snow and ice, I'm sleeping back in 6200m. Fortunately I found the tent where I errected it few days ago and so I can enjoy sleeping without freezing wind. My partner has broken his toe and had to return to Base camp. I will try to climb Camp 3 with another climber so I hope the weather will be good!

13-07-2013 Good luck!

12-07-2013
The last preparation before our summit asscend! And of course proper rest with tea in my hand and talk with other members of our Base camp. Nice..;-)

13-07-2013
I have started my last stretch to the very top! Today it was Camp 1 where I've managed to bring few beers and peanuts to celebrate my birthday with other members of the team. After freezing temperatures in a tent I would try asscend to Camp 2 tomorrow. I hope the weather will be fine and I would celebrate also my succesfull return back! 

11-07-2013 Camp 2

10-07-2013
I have achieved the highest point in my life today! It is still not Camp 2 but it is 6080m. And all that after very exhausting 10 hours climbing in steep slope covered by new deep snow. My two Russian climbing partners really helped me a lot by making a route in that new powder snow. Good night!

11-07-2013
At last in Camp 2 (6200m)! I put a tent there in the morning after a short climbing from yesterday's place. Then I made it all the way back to the sweet Base camp again. Tomorrow rest day! Hurray!!

09-07-2013 BC and Camp 1

08-07-2013
This morning I've tested a route to the Camp 2 but I have only managed to get to the half. It was really and extremely exhausting. Afterwards I descend all the way to the Base camp again where I sleep tonight.

09-07-2013
I have climbed back to Camp 1 today and my tomorrow plan is Camp 2 where i want to stay overnight. Trekking from C1 to C2 is probably the most dangerous part on the way to the top, and as I experienced yesterday also very exhausting!

07-07-2013 Sleeping in 5400m

The last night we slept in Camp 1 (5400m) and I must say that it was my worst night in a tent ever! I didn't sleep properly, had little fever and small headache (probably from cooking on petrol stove inside the tent).

06-07-2013 Camp 1 for the first time

Today's climb to the Camp1 was far more difficult than we thought! Probably 30kg rucksack took it's toll... But we made it and we set up a tent there. Ready for tomorrow's sleeping there...now back in Base camp for a proper peacefull sleep.

05-07-2013 Rest day in Base camp

Rest day is probably the best time when you climbing high mountains :) And we enjoyed our very much! Only sitting on the sun, enjoying scenery and drinking tea... Tomorrow is waiting for us Camp 1 which will be 5400m...keep fingers crossed!

04-07-2013 Base Camp

I have got finally to the Base camp today! This, quite quick asscend ment some dizzy feelings in our team but we will acclimatize properly whole day tomorrow as we stay in base camp all day- the life is beautiful  :)

03-07-2013 Subashi - under mountain

Even we still haven't managed it to the Base camp, we are very,very close with some beautiful views of mountain! But tomorrow is the day of Base! Finally our group includes Germans, Russian and other two Slovakian climbers! The world is really small...and happier now :)

02-07-2013 In Kashgar

I have finally met my climbing partner in Kashi and after some final shopping we are ready to move under Muztagh Ata today! We've got some simple tent for food and stove for cooking, not too much choice here...only one outdoor shop in Kashi! Hope the weather will stay as good as it's now. Keep cross fingers for us!
