Today it was 04:00 am and we were on the way to climb for an hour by car then ofcourse by walk with the equipments around 2 hrs.. I began to climb when we got the region..And then, I climbed around 5000 ft.. Then the mist began.. So I had to stop climbing cause it was getting risky and I dont like making mistakes “in purpose”.. I waited around 10 mins but saw the mist was coming up on me.. So I gave up and decided to go back down.. :))
This time it didnt want me to climb.. So I got back and after 5 mins, storm began with the wind.. :(( (anyways, I did the right )
In this week we will try again and again… Although we get the forecast from the satellite, it doesnt somehow match (or it changes too fast) :))
I keep posting them in serie :)
This one is one of the first shots when I got to region..
Well I keep trying :))
