We had a great view of the world under us!!!!

Hello!
On Monday we successfully returned from the Kyrgyzstan, where two members of our expedition reached the summit. One of them paid for it with rather serious frostbites, others reached the front of the summit or got high up into the north face. Otherwise we all are saved and through your sunglasses we had a great view of the peak as well as the world under us.

On holiday (10.7 – 14.8. 2007) six-part expedition of young Czech climbers and adventurers hit for the one of Pamir seventh-thousanders: Independence Peak, which summit is in 7 134m. The mountain itself is in hard accessible and wide Pamir mountains on the frontier of Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. It used to be third highest peak of former Soviet Union heretofore (also known under the name of Lenin Peak).
The Independence Peak was discovered in 1871 and its summit was firstly reached as late as in year 1928 by Soviet-German expedition. The mountain is known for its extreme climatic conditions and hard accessibility.

So, WHO are the brave conquerors?

In these sky altitudes with extreme conditions each of them had along two pieces of sunglasses. The MERENI GLACIER, specially designed for such conditions, was absolutely the best choice and was selected by each of participants. Next the most relished sunglasses, according free selection and discretion, were MERENI NOMAD (3 pcs), also R2 PROLOG Polarized, R2 LADY (selected by man though) and RELAX 5090. Indeed, during selection our specialists advised them, especially Mr. Vít Pacák.
