My collection of mountain programs in Peru
This year it so happened that the winter climbing season ended up in the time frame when the summer one has always been - in July, August and September! At the same time, it moved to a half of the globe - to South America.
Mount Alpamayo High Camp 5500 m
Despite these changes, the season was eventful, even somewhat overdone. I will write about critical moments in the separate article, because it is quite important.
Meeting of the axes after 5 generations
In any case, we managed to pass through it - working in a friendly and strong international team. It was hard and sometimes even scary, sometimes it was dangerous. Sometimes it was sad and unlucky.
The summit of Huascaran looks like frozen clouds after lunch
But the world is full of misfortunes even if you don't climb mountains, so the risks were justified.
And the risks of climbing were paid off with the unique emotions experienced by a person who, at the cost of enormous effort, has achieved his dream - the summit... This thesis works not only in the mountaineering - the harder and more dangerous is the goal, the more valuable and precious is the victory.
It is the Summit!
There were failures too, yes. But you can’t do without them on the difficult path to a difficult goal.
In addition to the summit emotions, in over 2 months of climbing in Peru, a lot of different information has accumulated - from the very beautiful photos and videos, to detailed descriptions and features of the new routes. Alas, there is also some accident analysis - the mountains do not forgive mistakes...
Nevado Alpamayo is covered with a bad weather. Together with our camp at the 5500 m pass
The cultural component of our mountain life could not remain aside either. The mountains of Peru are full of the history of the bygone civilizations, which went away with many secrets and left us with amazing mysteries.
One of the strange architectural details of the Chavin complex - very characteristical of this culture - a human head at the end of a short stone block
I have no doubt that these messages from the past contain invaluable information about our past and (perhaps) our future. During one of the excursions to the ancient Chavin temple, I met a professor historian from the University of Trujillo.
None of the decorative details and constructions of the Chavin complex currently has a clear scientific explanation. Like the countless mysteries of other ancient monuments in Peru and Bolivia
The acquaintance turned out to be very interesting - I will gladly share with you new, absolutely amazing details and theories of the history of civilizations that developed in completely different conditions and directions from our civilization.
I do not go off topic. Exploring the mountains can go much further that climbing and mountaineering.

There is enough material to compensate for my forced absence in the information field over the last two months - during constant climbing activity there was no chance to publish anything.
My next publication plan is almost complete until about November - just to the time of the start of the next mountain season, in which I really hope to see you in person.

If you came to this material via an external link, and if you got interested in the subject of this text (which would be really great), I will be grateful for your subscription to to my WhatsApp IClimb Channel - I share my best achievements and mountain stories for those who are looking for the eternal beauty, purity and tranquility in this crazy world which is so fragile and precious.

Our Principles
AlexClimb Rule #1 - Safety First
From the very beginning of our activity, here nearly 16 years, the first Principle of work of School of mountaineering and rock-climbing of MCS AlexClimb is the Safety Priority. On the basis of this Principle all process of training is based, all programs and rounds are developed and carried out only within this main principle. We consider that at professional approach to development of programs, at personal discipline and correctly put motivation - occupations by mountaineering and rock-climbing are COMPLETELY safe. And from the return - all troubles and accidents in our sport come from nonprofessionalism, from ignorance or neglect by elementary standards of safety, from irrational motivation, from revaluation of own forces and opportunities. All these prerequisites we COMPLETELY EXCLUDE in our work - ours Rock-climbing, Ice climbing and Mountaineering are based on one Principle - the Safety Priority. In rock-climbing, mountaineering and ice climbing, the Priority of Safety of MCS AlexClimb-is your personal security and comfort irrespective of, than we are engaged - we train muscles and we work technology of the movement in the sports hall and on the rock climbing wall, we make the way through snowstorm to top or we relax on golden sand of the Caribbean beach after hot day of trainings on rocks. The Safety priority - the main credo of School of mountaineering and rock-climbing of MCS AlexClimb.
AlexClimb Rule #2 - Leave No Trace
Closely interacting with Nature, working with the active programs in mountains, woods, lakes and rivers, we perfectly understand the importance of carefull and respectfull bahavior towards the Nature, for its resources. From the very beginning of our outdoor-activity we adopted rules of Leave No Trace technique - the standard of behavior of the person accepted in all the civilized world in relation to environment and especially - to the wild nature. After all on the relation of people to the nature near which they exist, itself can draw dalekoidushchy conclusions on the relation of these people to... Where and as we didn't travel - we don't reserve any garbage, we try to reduce whenever possible our influence on environment to a minimum. We clear earlier zagryazyonny tourist parking of the left garbage, we take out and we take out to utilization places that to us other people left there. We consider that only thus, at personal individual consciousness of each citizen, each tourist, climber or autotraveller, we will be able to keep the nature surrounding us in its state, natural, suitable for life, - in it pledge of the healthy future for ourselves and our children.
