“Eagles”, the way “Eagle ski club” members call themselves here, were the most cheerful group I have skied with!
With the end of the Festival our motivation didn´t end! We saw so many lines, still unclimbed that we decided to spend one more week in Armenia for more first ascents!
June 7-11 was spent to set 8 more sport climbing routes in Noravank canyon, at the new sector called Areni.
Mio amico Ale has checked out by internet that the busses Verona-Arco work till 10pm.
This year our club got involved in Youth in Action projects and we started with representing Armenia in the event “Experience the Eldorado of Nature” on June 22-29, in Flatanger, Norway.
Mystic basalt columns and limestone had been the initial motivation to travel to Armenia, but the potential for outdoor adventures took us by surprise as did the culturel experience.
On the beginning of August, 2007 our Armenian friends from Iran Sourik Stepanian and Araik Jahanian came to Yerevan to set off for Georgia, to climb up Mt Kazbek (5033m) with ‘Spitak’ rescue team members.
I finally skied one of my projects in Fox Mountains, solo. My skiing buddies were busy to support me on this backcountry trip, and the weather is warming drastically in the valley now, so it had to be done now or postponed to next year which I didn't like for some reasons.
This time we were honored to host the iconic mountain guides Claude Jaccoux and Alberto Re in Armenia.
