Remember this aftermath when some famous climber speak or post about his environmental care or his intention to organize a never-seen "cleaning expedition". ![]()
This is the toll of the "K2 Great Jumaring Success".![]()
Yes, westerern organizers and climbers began this Circus on Everest many years ago, but please don't use it as a good excuse to minimise the risks.![]()
![]()
There's no difference being Westerern, Chinese, Indian, Sherpas, Baltis and leave this load of shit to the future generations .![]()

Pakistani people need to be aware that this trend will lead the Baltoro Area to become a trashpit,if government and local agencies don't act and build some facilities to help cleaning this mess and enforce a real control on the organizers behaviour .

“K2 - WHY?!? Now, that the huge groups left the mountain, here is the terrible reality. This is K2 now. And this is how those more than 250 people left it. It’s a shame! 📹Flor Cuenca (worth reading her post on instagram florcuenca_mountainclimber)”
Leonardo Avezzano Photography dopo la premiere del suo documentario “The Promise” all’International Film Festival di Amman si è diretto in Africa per un progetto speciale: portare in vetta al Kilimanjaro (5895 metri) 4 rifugiati colpiti dalla guerra. Shaqayeq (Afghanistan) , Tania (Ucraina) e Adnan (Siria) e Safa (Siria).![]()
![]()
I 4 rifugiati colpiti dalla guerra miravano a portare il messaggio che il dolore causato dalla guerra è universale. Anche la risposta dovrebbe essere tale. Il team ha scalato la montagna più alta dell’Africa per una giusta causa: raccogliere fondi sufficienti per INARA per curare 100 bambini colpiti dalla guerra.![]()

“Il vero nome del Kilimangiaro (5895 metri) è Uhuru, che significa “Libertà”, nome appropriato per il messaggio che volevano portare in cima.![]()
Ho imparato tanto da questi ragazzi: credi in te stesso, vivi il tuo sogno, lascia perdere ciò che non puoi controllare, concentrati su ciò che puoi controllare. Abbandona il tuo ego e sii libero. Puoi essere quello che vuoi essere. Niente è impossibile, anche quando il mondo fa di tutto per renderlo impossibile. Un cecchino non può fermare il sogno di essere un atleta olimpico, la politica e la guerra non possono fermare il sogno di essere un fotoreporter, essere un artista a Parigi, essere un architetto o semplicemente tornare a casa.![]()

Sono grato di aver condiviso questo viaggio con mio fratello Mostafa Salameh (rifugiato palestinese) e la presidente di INARA Arwa Damon. Abbiamo avuto così tante sfide per mettere insieme questo progetto, sorrisi e lacrime, ma alla fine l'energia che abbiamo ricevuto da Shaqayeq, Tania, Adnan e Safa ci ha aiutato a rimanere in pista.![]()

L’unico modo per fronteggiare un fenomeno come la guerra, creato da uomini ciechi e persi, è rimanere uniti e ripudiare la guerra, cercando modo di correggerne i suoi effetti.”![]()

I'm still trying to understand what happened on Broad Peak : I received from my dear friend Rodolphe Popier the numbers of the incredible ascent done by Benjamin Védrines - Alpiniste.![]()
And we still don't have info about the descent by paraglider!![]()
In the same days, Denis Urubko did the same ascent in 14 hours and 40 minutes, which is a great performance as well, not mentioning that super Denis is 48 years old and Benjamin is 30!![]()
![]()
Anyway, the numbers speak loud : have a look at the overall vertical gain speed (meters/hours) and think about that this was achieved on a 8000 peak, without oxygen and with a serious technical and delicate summit ridge..![]()
