Laci
Zoli belaying
this is what is all about - happiness
Cristi lost in fog
what a feeling
toys for big boys
underexposed
in my element
somewhere
Zoli belaying under the last part of the ridge
the party in front of us on the final slabs (IV)
"come on guys" they shout
it's our turn next
leading on the final slabs
feeling good
backflash
the exit from the ridge
Zoli on the slabs
couple of beautiful moves
done
Zoli belaying Cristi
he is happy
alpine climbing in it's best - but be aware this is serious stuff, and you need to know what you are doing -
Cristi on the slabs
he moves well
the weather keeps threatening
another party following us
Zoli in the last belay
Zoli and Cristi
together ... in sweet harmony
lost between earth and sky
me exiting the ridge - feeling good
a lake - don't know the name of it
saint (angel) effect on the clouds - if you look closely the rainbow forms around the shadow of the climber on the clouds -
descending - tired but full of concentration
