Right now I'm on the road to Ivano-Frankivsk from the hike. And it's a bit sad, because we're heading back, yet there's so much joy that I had the chance to meet such an incredible number of amazingly cool people. This isn't my first hike with Kuluar, and already the second time on this route. Last year our love story began, but back then I had to drop out of the route, so that this year I could finish it with these awesome people. Absolutely everyone on the team contributed to making these days what they were - incredible! Special thanks to our guides Ivan and Dmytro. You can immediately tell that these people love what they do, they're open, sincere and gave strong support to everyone. They told interesting stories and facts. We climbed both Hoverla and Petros almost as a full group, positively, quickly, without losing anyone, without injuries, sore muscles - that's sacred😅👌😆. The weather was fire. Hoverla let us take a good look at her, waited until we descended, and then wrapped her summit in wind and clouds. Petros greeted us with very good snow, but asked us kindly not to linger at the top so he could rage a bit, and on the descent he opened up the sunshine for us. It was simply - Love! Thank you all, between the 2 teams we had one huge family for these 4 days! Thank you!
