This year I went on a few trips with Kuluar, three summits — Island Peak, Lobuche East, and Kilimanjaro. As always, with people who feel like family, and I already consider the Company's guides Sanya Pavlov and little brother Taras to be just that. Sanya pushes you when needed, lets you rest and catch your breath when needed, and reins in any crazy ideas that come from altitude. As for Taras, there's nothing left to say, everyone already knows that any trip with him is a celebration you can't wait to experience again. Thank you, dear Kuluar, for being there!✊
