Bright future

While photo review about our last hiking trip into Pyrenees is getting ready I wanna share some information about our future plans.

In the end of this month, while Gita is visiting Latvia, I’m heading again to the mountains, again to Pyrenees, this time alone. I have planed one more attempt to reach highest summit of Pyrenees. Pic de Aneto reaches 3404 m, it is situated on Spanish side of Pyrenees. The mountains is famous for its’ largest glacier in this area. Last autumn with Gita we have reached aprox. 3100m, but we had to turn back due to bad weather conditions. It became too risky to climb. We tried to reach the summit out of climbing season and without appropriate gear. In October weather is already pretty cold and unstable there.

I’m used to not give up on my goals and while Gita is away I’m going to climb Aneto one more time – alone.

This time to make the trip more interesting I’ll try to reach basecamp in one attempt starting from Barcelona on my bike. It’s gonna be roughly 300km and 20h on a bike with a lot of climbing. I wanna know and test my physical and mental borders. I will have to remember the time I took part in 24h race, but this time I’ll gonna be alone, only with my mind and my bike.

When I’ll reach the basecamp the next morning or morning after (depends on the weather) I’m gonna climb the mount Aneto. This will take me 12h to get up there and to get back. If I’ll stay alive after all this I will share my experience and photos with you.

The second thing. After Gita returns to Barcelona we’re going first time outside Europe on bike expedition to Morocco. We hope to find something new for us, new experience, to see the other lifestyles and ways of living. The route is not decided yet, but it’s possible that we’ll try to visit every region of the country.
