"Rysy, 2499 m, the highest peak of Poland, went from Slovakia side. We started at 2 am 😉!!! and then were sitting in the car and waiting for other people as were afraid of bears to go through the forest alone :) almost all the way it was raining, but if you want, have determition and if you are well prepared -> you can😊💪 We gained the height +1000 m and then -1000 m went down P.S. it is my 3ed attempt with Rysy and I did it🫡" — annarokanera • Aug 3, 2024

"Hike from end of road from Gorni Lom to Dupljak (2033m) and Midzor (2168m). Please don't follow my descent track - this OSM path is quasi non existent anymore, especially the top half of it." — markorothe • Jul 26, 2024

"We are heading to our next objectives in Sierra Nevada, the altitude is not a problem for us after acclimatizing in Pradollano, but our nose is starting to look like a water tap. We see quite a few mountain goats and melting lakes. The flowering in these peaks is incredible and is concentrated in only a couple of months; numerous species always attached to the ground are exclusive to this place. We spent the night in the La Caldera shelter with a blizzard that seems to want to knock down the construction. The morning is clear and cold and the climb to the roof of the Iberian Peninsula is tough, especially in the final part with slopes of 75 percent and lack of air. The views are worth the effort." — franciscobirruezo • Jun 29, 2024

"Weather was great and had the fixed ropes set up by 2 experienced mountain guides. Using ropes is highly encouraged if you are planning on doing this rote in the winter considering the somewhat technical terrain and glacier crossings. " — antonlarsson • Apr 12, 2024

"My wife and I managed to get the peak climbed despite our short stay in Fort William of only two days and less than favorable forecast. We managed to stay dry on our ascent that accented with blustery winds and multiple rainbows. Down low we enjoyed the expansive views then as we approached the cairns visibility diminished substantially, barely seeing folks ahead of us. Then I realized a good part of the loss of visibility was simply my glasses fogging up. Take off glasses….ah much better…until clouds thicken again. Finally the summit flatten off and we could start to make out the remnants of stone walls and then the obelisk on top of a rocky mound. Photo ops then find a less windy spot for some snacks. Just as we were leaving the rain came in and continued for the next hour and half. With the one two punch of rain and strong winds we were drenched in no time as we shuffled downhill passing the crowds making their way up. At least the rain/wind was at their backs. Fortunately in the final hour the rain gave up, clouds parted and sections of blue appeared making for a more cheery return to our car." — Nimblefoot • Sep 25, 2023
