New videos from the Pamirs

This season I decided to walk alone into the Pamirs and Moskvina basecamp:

Later on I acclimatized on Korzhenevskaya mountain that I summited last season.

I did another acclimatization trip with the guides to put up fixed ropes on Kommunizma peak up to 6100m.

After all this I was ready for a summit attempt. We were a team of five people that climbed in a group and reached the summit as the first team of the season.

In late August I will travel to Nepal and try to find a fair deal for Manaslu 8160m. If I can do that I will climb this mountain in late September,early October.

Spot gps tracker

Douglas Asplund borrowed me his spot tracker. While trekking probably alone in the Pamirs for a week and on peak Kommunizma I will post updates on the map below of my position. But dont count that it will work a 100% sometimes the signal wont connect to the sattelites. Anyway follow my position below probably going to try and upload my position at my daily campspots.

Fann mountains of Tadjikistan and preparations for Peak Kommunizma 7495m

Here is a short drone video I did from Alaudin valley were we passed beautiful lakes and high mountains.

I will start walking in to Moskvina basecamp on the 8 of July. When in basecamp I will get some more acclimatization and start climbing Peak Kommunizma when I feel ready to do so. I will try to find people to climb with in the basecamp and the walk in to bc I will probably do alone similar route as we did last year. Probably I will be able to post through the satellite wifi in basecamp but it will be very expensive and will be very sporadic. You can follow my progress on instagram: @timbogdanov

I plan to be back in Dushanbe in the end of July again.

Cycling to the FIFA world cup 2018

I reached my goal Nizhny Novgorod after cycling 2500km from my hometown, Göteborg. It was fantastic to be at the Nizhny stadium and watch Sweden win over South Korea in their first world cup game. Here is my drone video summary of the tour:

Betfinal.com did video series about the journey as well and the first part you can watch below:

New season, new projects and new collaboration

Well its that time of the year again, finally my outdoor season have started. Seven months in Oslo are finished and now its time to make reality of some new adventure projects again.

First off I am cycling to support the Swedish national team in the Football World cup in Russia. I want to honor the team effort after the Swedish national team made it through the qualifier and playoffs which demanded pushing the team effort to the limits of its capacity.

Also I am collecting money to our charity project in Kyrgyzstan. This will be brought to awareness during the trip and we hope to collect all funds needed to build the Uplift community house for disabled children and their families. Please support and read more here.

Thanks to Cykelhuset in my hometown in Göteborg for helping out to prepare my bicycle!

 

 

The bicycletour will also be a great preseason for our upcoming high altitude climbs in Central Asia. We will be pushing our capabilities to new limits while trying to complete the Snow leopard award that consists of the five highest summits, all above 7000m, in the former soviet union.

The team will also consist of Douglas Asplund and young filmmaker Noah Sandgren this season.

I have also teamed up with my new main sponsor Betfinal.

Looking forward to work with Betfinal from now on!

 

This feels like a good collaboration with an important focus of helping out my charity, and making an impact were it really matters. Betfinal has a conscious approach as a company and I really liked that. Also being someone who regularly likes to place bets on Football and UFC fights its interesting for me to explore and collaborate with a company that are working with online betting. Betfinal will create some really good content based on my projects so stay tuned for that.

On the 18 of May I am starting my bicycletour and the adventure season starts for real!
