Bravo Paulo

You are a brave but crazy man Paulo - I salute you! But as you say your 6000m training put you a step closer towards being able to walk around and even camp in freezing conditions - with a haemoglobin of 70-something.

Now - you go off and beat this thing!

Best wishes, Mark

Re: Bravo Paulo

Yep, 7.6 of hemoglobin is not easy, and I've been a couple weeks ago in 6,4! Terrible headaches...
Now I'm doin' okay! 8,8 steady.
As the aracityn (chemo) loses its power by each day goes by, it will rise to at least 11.0. Than I'll be ready for some real 6000m+ peak.
Well, I do what I can...Plans I have dozens, but first I have to have a serious talk with my bone marrow hehehe
Cheers mate!
Paulo

Re: Coordinates of this mountain?

Hello Yury,

Well, I don't see a reason to ask, I left on the top of the trip report the coordinates, just click over it and you'll see where it is.
Also, this trip report is attached to its mountain page, which I also did here in summitpost around 10 days ago, and another place where you can see on a map the location of the peak with one click.

Thanks for the kind wish of luck!

Cheers
Paulo
