RE: Expedition to Mount Kazbek: Prelude & day 1
I was in Svaneti, climbing on Tetnuldi, so didn't visit Steemit for a while. I'll be back at home next week, I'll try to make some map scetch or I can give cordinates of our campsites, then it's easy to improvise the route.
All people in our group enjoyed this journey. We descended on classic route and everybody thought, we made a good decision :)
I would really appreciate if you could share at least coordinations of campsites! Maybe one day I could try that too. It is way mor einteresting to use different routes on your way forward and back.
I've never been to Svaneti, so I'm definitely returning to Georgia at least once more:) is Tetnuldi hard to climb? From ppl I was climbing Mt. Kazbek I heard only about Mt. Lahili/Layla.
Okay, easiest and fastest way to share my routes and campsites is sharing my Endomondo records day by day:
Day I: https://www.endomondo.com/users/10638593/workouts/1163440369
Day II: https://www.endomondo.com/users/10638593/workouts/1163440399
Day III: https://www.endomondo.com/users/10638593/workouts/1163440429
Day IV: https://www.endomondo.com/users/10638593/workouts/1163440450
Day VI: https://www.endomondo.com/users/10638593/workouts/1163440494
Summit Day: https://www.endomondo.com/users/10638593/workouts/1163440517
Descending: https://www.endomondo.com/users/10638593/workouts/1163440544
As you can see, summit day we had the fastest moving speed! There's no any hotels, shops, restaurants, horse transportation nor people on the route. Even no trails in most sections. Mountain pass on day VI is badass, specially in bad weather conditions... If you try it, take your best survivor friends with you, don't go alone! ;)
Good luck!
