Hoverla

Morning met us with dense clouds around. We couldn't see even a bank of Nesamovyte lake near our tent. But some hours later all the fog got out and we have seen the sun. This day we climbed up the highest mountain of Ukraine - Hoverla. After that we went to the north and got into wind-fallen trees in Kryve Hede. Some hours of fighting with the nature made us very tired, so we set up a camp on the saddle behind Kryve Hede.You are welcome to watch some photoalbums from this day:

Chornohora

After top of Pip Ivan we started go along Chornohora mountain range. Sometimes the weather was sunny and then I made a lot of photos with wide view. But after an hour of good weather we have got into clouds with dense cold rain. We became wet to the skin. So, we were very happy to find a flat place for our tent on the bank of Nesamovyte lake.
The next day made us a present with an excelent weather. We continued go farther towards the highest mount in Ukraine - Hoverla. Here are some photos from Chornohora. Links below can led you to the whole photoalbums.

Climbing up Chornohora

Second day of our trip begun with climbing up the east edge of the higest Ukrainian mountain range - Chornohora. We spent night in the mountain valley and in the morning start going across firtree forest. We made some photo near the waterfalls and then our way led us through the fantastic stone creatures - valley of Vuhaty Kamin. The final part of climbing finished at the former polish astronomic observatory on the top of mount Pip Ivan (2028 m).
So, you are welcome to watch photos of this morning.
