Believe
in the power of experience, have a strong team and cross the
border of impossible. Winter Expedition K2. As
it
was impossible flight in the air, stay under water in a submarine,
landing on the Moon and beig in open space. The
ascent to the Everest was also considered as impossible.
But
human nature will never stop to explore and test
their capabilities. Ensure that we are best only when we cross
the boundaries of what's impossible!
Success
is more than reached the peak. Experience, a strong team and a
common goal. The ascent to the summit, which has not yet entered
none of the people. It's like the first flight into space.
Together, with your help, we have a chance to write a new card of history.
I'm
Denis Urubko professional athlete, mountaineer, writer, journalist.
All of my adult life I've been profesional alpinist, it is almost 24
years. Like any professional athlete I set the slope higher and
higher, in order to be faster, higher and stronger.
In this year
during the expedition to third top of the world Kanczenjunga (8586m)
on the North side, I managed to create an international team, which
called on this expedition, and I am sure that will be next. Alex Txikon, Adam Bieliecki, Artem Brown and Dmitry Sinev. We create
next big project - the ascent to not reached mountain in
winter - K2 (8611m). It is the second Mount in the world.
We
want to take the call, because our team in this part is ready. I, Alex Txikon and Adam Bieliecki - we managed to attract sponsors.
We need help to raise funds for the participation of
two additional members of the expedition.
As a leader of expedition, I have a lot of experience climbing in the high mountains, but I need more 2 person who I'd trust our lifes and be confident that they will do the
same.
Together
we all will make one strong team.
I
need to collect 15 000 USD. These tools are required to pay an
additional two participants: airline tickets, visas, food, equipment,
porters, a caravan of camels, Internet connection and solar panels.
In
gratitude for the support I have prepared gifts - original expedition
postcard with the signs of members of the expedition, originalne
t-shirts with logo, a personal video gratitude recorded during the
expedition.
Helping,
you will be a member of expedition! :)
Together we will confirm that only common goals, common efforts and a strong team, strength and skills overcome any difficulties and we will do the impossible.
I
and my teammates have a lot of experience of climbing. Being nineteen I was served in the Sports Company of
Central Sports Club of Army of Kazakhstan. Fulfilled the programe of
climbing without oxygen at all 14 eight-thousanders. In a career I
went through many difficult routes in the mountains of the Pamirs,
Tien Shan and the Himalayas. 21 times I had made the ascent to the
peaks above 8 thousand meters. In 2002 -2003 year I participated in
the international expedition menaged by the Polish climber Krzysztof
Wielicky - winter ascent on K2. With my friends
Peter Moravsky and Marcin Kaczkan we had risen to the level of 7
860 meters - none before us and after does not attained such
height in winter on K2. Unfortunately we had to stop to climb to the
top, because we needed to resсue
Marcin. After this it was not possible to continue the expedition.
In
2009 I made the first winter ascent of Makalu, in 2011 the first
winter ascent of Gasherbrum 2.

Other
participants of the upcoming project Alex Txikon and Adam Bielecki

Alex
Chicon made ascents to the 10th of 8-thousanders, several
ascents
in
winter.
Adam Bielecki was on the summit of Gasherbrum 1 in 2012 in winter and
the Broad Peak in 2013 in winter as the first person in the world.
I
am convinced that with this team we have a chance to rise to the top
of K2 in winter. If
our team will be confident and will have strong people, then the
chances of success of the whole team improves significantly
The obstacle to achieving the goal of a shortage of the money to invite confident person to participate in the expedition. To
do this, we collect additional money.
If
you send to other
people information
about our campaign,
thereby helping to
raise funds.
