I'm really impressed!! first of all ,thanks God that you are ok Radek!and I know you will back there cause you are infected by this special mountain virus;))anyway if you feel you have to take a rest,just do it..this is also very important for your mind in order to keep climbing on.
I had a very nice afternoon reading your TR,great written,like I was there..Beautiful photos,wonderful route..
Thanks. I also think that the bright side of failure is that you can go there once again because you have some unfinished business...
This is one of the most honourable routes in Tatras, but not so popular, especially in that period of the year.
Radek, this is not the part about "Shit times"...I meant guys and as I know you are not guys :) and there is only one photo like that and some good writting after it. Not that kind of stuff I'm laughing at.
thanks for reading
Cheers
Radek
And a very honest recounting of your inner dialogue and insecurities. I don't think many of us would have been brave enough to be that honest in a report. Glad to hear you made it back safely!
I guess the honesty is a must to write a good trip report. You have look deep in yourself to figure out what you really felt...and rthen just write it.
Thanks for nice words.
I read your story three times, guys. But now, after having it read for the third time I can frankly say, that it is a damn good story. Impressive writing, catchy, passing all these emotions right to and through the reader. Thanks for this... I hope the SP will see the next part of your trip.
And that "beer" short text message... we wanted to cheer you up a bit, having no idea what had happend. If we knew...we would've probably drunk more.
That was cheering up. And I also know Igi's drinking abilities so you would have probably ended up with a huge hang over for a next day :)
Thanks for nice words. That story is nothing when compared to the one from Sulov Peak.

Re: WowThanks Graham!
It's a pity that we didn't make more photos but we just weren't in the photographic mood after the fall...
Greetings from Poland

Re: Exciting readThanks for nice words.
The funny thing is that we write the TRs after trips on which we didn't reach the actual top.

Nice."Sorry… no pictures of bruises, wounds, injuries and blood in this text, we are not that kind of guys."
what're you trying to say Radek?
...I'm joking. Outstanding write-up & adventure as usual! ditto on photos.
