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.

Summit of Peak Kommunizma (7495m) From left: Jörgen Farner (Norway), Tomek Kaźmierczak (Poland) and Arek Pawłowski (Poland) missing team mate Ivan Tomov, was already on his way down (Bulgaria)

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.

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.
