So leave unnecessary disputes —
I have already proved everything to myself:
Only mountains can be better than mountains,
Which I haven’t been to yet.
(Vladimir Vysotsky)
A long climb, mountain air, a heavy backpack, songs to the guitar, a smouldering fire, the milky way overhead and countless stars in the sky and in the distance the desired peak that will be conquered. Sounds fascinating, doesn’t it? You will have the opportunity to feel it for yourself soon. The Open Eurasia competition presents the award named after Arkadiy Bezrukov together with the travel company «Ak-Sai travel» for the best work about the mountains.
