Bisotun is obviously the monster of rock in Iran, 5km in width and 1200 meters of vertical rock with 3 big ledges make Bisotun one of the most Challenging wall in the world . The rock is limestone and sharp in some parts so it makes a good friction for the climbers in easy routes . The summit of Bisotun ...
Hi guys, i am thinking to go to pamir this summer with a friend, our goal is to climb Korjenevskaya. I'm obviously having some trouble.
at first i wanted to do everything by myself (even walk in somehow, but my friend don't have the time for that adventure and i don't think i will be able to find someone who wants to do the same approach) (btw, if you have any info about this trail, ...

I'd like to see if anyone has any idea about companies that are offering snowman trek tour in Bhutan starting sometime during May 2016.

I keep reading about how half of the Annapurna circuit falls in the rainshadows and weather is kind of good so it would be reasonable to think even that area falls into it, right? It is pretty much close to mustang, which is also a popular area in summer.
So, in about July of 2015 I was in Passu and met a few English fellas that had just climbed a previously unclimbed six thousand metre peak. One was an Irish bugger that was an engineer on yachts, the other was a guide called Pete and then there was another bloke that I believe is a user here! Where are you all? Wouldn't mind an alpine catch up.
Myself and a friend are planning a central Asia trip this summer (first time in the greater ranges) to climb some 5000-6000m (ish) peaks. We were looking at Pakistan, China (Sichuan) and Tajikistan; not mad keen on Kyrgyzstan (despite lack of red tape) because teams have been there from our mountaineering club a few times before now and we want to go someplace different! We're open to other suggestions for countries but these are ...
