A never before seen perspective of one of the greatest and most challenging mountains in the world. 4,000 people have summited Everest, whilst less than 400 can claim the K2 title. It's a beast. The first ever winter ascent was accomplished by Nirmal in 2021 and his elite Sherpa team, which was an incredible achievement. Every mountain you see in the foreground would be world class by itself, but since there are so many of them in this area, some of them even go unnamed. Chongtar Kangri in the left is 7,330 meters or 24,000 feet. And although it looks small, this "little friend" of K2 is over 4,000 feet taller than the tallest mountain in North America. Getting to this location alone, is extraordinary. The challenges are vast and numerous.
Unverkennbar ein Tatra-Gelenkwagen vom Typ K2 ist Bratislavas 7125, auch wenn er bereits die modernisierte Kopfform trägt.
Dordt in Stoom 2022
Dordt in Stoom is het grootste driedaagse stoomevenement van Europa, dat om het jaar plaatsvindt in de binnenstad van Dordrecht. Elke keer komen er ongeveer 250.000 bezoekers af op allerlei stoommachines, zoals stoomschepen, stoomtreinen, stoomcarrousels, stoomwalsen, stoomtractoren en dergelijke. Ook reden er busdiensten met veteraanbussen.

This is a beautiful and challenging (but not impossible or perilous) trek. I went via Apricot Tours and had a great experience. I would recommend it completely!

66127 leaves a trail of exhaust as it powers over Liskeard Viaduct with a heavy load of 11 JIAs laden with china clay bound for The Potteries. The train is 6C53 1519 Par Harbour-Exeter Riverside, the first time I have known Par Harbour to be quoted as the origin of the train. Liskeard Viaduct is the second highest on the Cornish Main Line after St Pinnock. Access to this spot kindly granted by the farmer.

Con 8.611 metros, tras el monte Everest (8.848 m), es la segunda montaña más alta de la Tierra y la más difícil de escalar.
El K2 es conocido como la montaña salvaje debido a la dificultad de ascenderla y por ser la segunda en porcentaje de fatalidades entre los "ochomiles" para aquellos que lo escalan. Por cada cuatro personas que han alcanzado la cumbre, una ha muerto intentándolo.
