"not all at once" - somehow so can characterize our second season of communication with the mountains of Pakistan. The Plan-minimum fulfilled alas only i - went on the classics to the top of the broad peak (8047 M), Вячеслав Poležajko (Viacheslav Polezhaiko) did not succeed in weather and health - he wrote about it in his post.
Bad even by the standards of Pakistan the weather of this season ate all the reserves of time and did not give to the plan-maximum - the new line at broad peak.
The Classic at 8 k is definitely not some special result for an athlete, however, as the main thing in trips is to receive pleasure and new experience, the expedition by unanimous decision of the personal composition is decided to be successful, because we:
(a) once again understood the simple truth that the most precious thing in the mountains is people, and met with a mass of interesting lazaûŝego people with whom God give still somewhere to meet under the big mountains,
B) involved in the happy rescue of the legendary Rick Allen after he printed out the broad this season and on the downhill from the top flew down the hill above the third camp of meters on 300-500 (off the scratches and was discovered and saved with a drone - a separate story! ),
The in) felt how our bodies work at 8000 M, and realized what and how we can do there,
G) try a month with a view of the South Wall K2 and allowed to that in our heads dreams of the future 
(D) tested a huge number of new and existing clothing models Fram Equipment (friends, special thanks for the sverhlegkie overboty - in summit day I was the only one who didn't otmahival the legs than caused the waves of envy of foreign colleagues ), and ate an incredible amount of And loaves om nom (one of the loaves even had to use instead of the flag at the top ), and share with both companies their impressions of it,
E) well and most importantly - whole and healthy are back home, and already, as the classic sings, "build plans ahead" !
=======================================================================

Another successful #Eiger traverse today from the Mittelegi hut to the Jungfraujoch. Great conditions meant that even a leisurely pace gave a 3hr30 summit time
