wild enough!

Hello Tomas!

Your picture here made me absolutely excited! It is not the first time when I realize that the summit I already climbed is much more wild than I thought during the climb! :)
Thaks for your image!

Re: wild enough!

Yes, the Lomnicky stit is quite wild from west :) It is interesting that the british explorer Robert Townson said in 1792 that the Lomnicky is one of the highest in the world and that it is unclimbable. He estimated the altitude of Lomnicky to 3000 meters. Thank you for a comment!

Oh my God!

Really??!
Very interesting information, thanks!
It seems both of you (Tomek, and Tomas ;) know quite lot about High Tatras. We often climb there so I'm sure I'm gonna have some questions before planning any new climb there again.

Good luck!

Re: Oh my God!

You are welcome. Feel free to ask anything. If we know, we will provide you searched info! I wish you great climbs here, for example, the west wall of the Lomnicky stit! :)
