    Great video, really enjoyed the calm and relaxing music and the scenic view. In addition to that, congrats on your summit success! I am planning to go to Lenin Peak next year, so I have a couple of questions. In your answer to 'user sunshine' as to why you decided to go back to BC instead of summiting on day 8 of your climb, you said the reason was acclimatization because it takes about 2 weeks at that altitude. Are you saying that it would have been too dangerous to try to summit that day, or did you decide not to do it because it wasn't part of the plan? Realistically speaking, do you think it is possible to get to the top in 7-10 days with adequate preparation? MAX

    • @maltmountain
      @maltmountain  2 роки тому +3

      Thank you:)
      Yes, it was our plan to do an acclimatization hike to camp 3, and to descent back to base camp for regeneration. Nevertheless it wouldn’t heave been possible to summit on day 8 due to windy weather condition but also due to the acclimatization. I’m really not sure if it’s possible to summit after 7 days. Maybe after 10 days. But I definitely recommend to schedule enough time for the whole trip! It would be much saver and increases your chances for summiting. For example we had to wait for two extra days in base camp and as well in camp 1 due to bad weather.

    Question: why acclimatize so fast up to 6100m? Seems to put high stress on your lungs and performance. Then by running down BC to regenerate because you lost strength, you lose valuable adaptation time higher up. Others acclimatize slowly, spending about 3 days at each new altitude before summiting. Regenerate with bad weather rest days on the way up. What do you think of this? What would you prefer if you could choose? I´m considering going up this year, that´s why I ask.
    "Slow" scheme looks like this. Two days for travel to BC, 3.600m. Day 3 sort out equipment, get to know each other. Day 4 acclimatization to 4000m, sleep BC. Day 5 up to camp I, 4.400m, sleep BC. Day 6 up to camp I and rest, sleep there. Days 7-8 reserve days for rest/ bad weather (sleep BC or camp I). Day 9 acclimatization to 5.000m, sleep camp I. Day 10 up to camp II, 5.300m, sleep camp I. Day 11 up to camp II and rest, sleep there. Day 12 acclimatization to 5.800, sleep camp II. Day 13 up to camp III, 6.100m, sleep camp II. Day 13 up to camp III and rest, sleep there. Days 14-15 reserve days for rest/ bad weather (sleep camp II or III). Day 16 summit day 7.134m, sleep camp III. Day 17 down to BC, 3.600m. Day 18-19 travel back home.
    In this way, you spend 13 days between 3.600m and 6.100m, slowly going up, giving your body ample time to adapt. Average sleeping altitude using this way is about 4.900m. Logistics: from Camp I you carry your food for Day 11-17 = 7 days up the mountain. Send your food for Day 6-10 ahead with from BC to camp I with the horses. Let me know what you all think.

    • @maltmountain
      @maltmountain  Рік тому +1

      Theoretically I would say, that the way you described the acclimatization process would make more sense. But I think, their are many different ways for a proper acclimatization that can work similarly well. For me and the other members of my group it was adequate to start the acclimatization at 3600m. You described a relatively linear step-like process with only a view rest days. And your plan is to stay many days and nights above camp 1. The problem is, that camp 2 and camp 3 aren’t very comfortable. While the sun shines it gets very hot, it can get very windy or snowy and it’s laborious to get enough food and water. And depending on the weather conditions there are sometimes only short windows during which you can go higher than camp 1. So in my opinion it made sense how we did it. For me it felt very effective to regenerate at lower altitude after reaching camp 3 quit fast. Maybe it would have been even more effective to stay at camp 1 instead of the base camp. But the comfortable situation and the good food in the lower camps was worth its weight in gold to gain strength for the summit. Nevertheless I’m not an expert in high altitude climbing (it was my first 7000m peak). But it was a common strategy as we did it. And when you look at the acclimatization concepts for Everest (as an example), it’s normal to go down to the base camp several times.
      In any case, i wish you a nice time at Lenin Peak with a good acclimatization that works for you:)

      I really like the timelapse feature on the GoPro. Low-light shots can be more challenging. From a technical standpoint, Mont Blanc and Lenin Peak are comparable. The significant difference lies in prolonged high-altitude exposure and sleeping only in tents, making it more demanding. With sufficient fitness, however, it's still quite achievable:)

Due to very cold fingers I wasn’t able to film the first parts of the summit push and the sunrise anyway, although the sunrise was really breathtaking😅.
      I climbed the Lenin peak in July (summit day - 25.07.2021). I heard that the best months are July and August. In July the weather condition are statistically a little bit worse (more snow and wind) but the crevasses are smaller. We were lucky to find a weather window. Apart from the summit day before sunrise the temperature was bearable. As long as there is no wind and there are no clouds it can even get extremely hot (Camp 2). So it’s difficult to name value for the temperature. It was more about the wind and the solar radiation. During the summit push the temperature was lower than -28°C and together with the strong winds I got problems with my fingers (although I had 8000m mittens). But on the top it felt like I was wearing my down jacket on the beach😅
