HI ALL!!!
I haven't written for a long time... So many things happened those days!

act 1 The Cliff Jumping
On 10th of July i jumped from cliffs near the waterfall the first one is about 5-7 meters the highest one is about 60 feet (as americans said) so ~20 m. When i was jumping from 20m. cliff i yelled "Da poshli vy vse naaaaaaa*smack*") Water was fucking cold!

Act 2 Highway to Hell
Evidently i didn't get adrenalin enogh and we go hiking with Nikita that evening. Originally we were going to Iceberg lake but we change our mind when we were already on the trail and as true russians went to the top of nearest mountain) it was about 9:30 pm when we got to the top and we had to go back soon but... we saw that it wasn't just mountin. there was little valley inside like The Lost World. There was couple of lakes, waterfalls, snowfields... and we went down (fulls!). Nikita said that he was there before with Masha and he knew where is nearest trail to Swiftcurrent. I hadn't known yet that he had kinda illness called "topograficheskij kretinizm". Well... first time i said bad russian word when we climbed down the waterfall inside that mountain. I'd never said so many bad russian words before!! it was almost dark when we reached first cliff. We couldn't find any bypass and we started climbing... that time we thought that it was easiest way (thanks Nikita). Damn! Have u ever tried to climb rocks for 5-6 hours at night with just 1 headlamp for 2 people!? DON'T DO THAT Some moments we were in very dangerous conditions. When i was hanging by just one finger from huge vertical cliff and wasn't able to find any holes or rocks i screamed "Mam! A cho ty menya takim mudakom rodila?!". By the way... stars are so beautiful when u are sitting on any little unstable rock in the middle of huge cliff! When we almost overcame those rocks and were getting down to rockslide we heard weird noise like if there were people. I had shined a light that way and saw smth like 2 flashlights. We cryed "Luuuudi! A ne bla, my zhe v Americe! People! Help us!" but nobody answered. We realized that those two red points were not flashlights but eyes. It was really scary). We got to the top of next cliff at about 5 am. It sill was dark but it dawned. i tried to look at the bottom of canyon but rock ander my feed crashed and i hang by one hand from the mountain pine near the top of huge waterfall. I don't remember what i was shouting that moment but Neket said it was "Zhopa!! No kak krasivo-to! KRASIVAYA %$# ZHOPA!!!". Then we found climbable place by some miracle and got to the bottom of that waterfall at ~6 am. We got back to Swiftcurrent at 7:30 am. So it was 13 hour freacking adventure. Rocks rocks rocks around the clock tonight) Incidentally it was Nikita's birthday. He was borned at 1 a.m.)) That day he was borned twice! I presented him headlamp with my signature " USA 11.07.07 psixu ot psixa") We got a lot of holes on our panties and scrayched our arms but we were alive!

act 3 Just backpacking

i've just returned from backpacking. we make about 30 miles in two days, went over 2 passes. My feet are sored but i don't regret. It was awesome! We stayed over night near the very beautiful lake... i counted 17 waterfalls coming to it from snow fields but it wasw warm enough for swimming yesterday. I left behind all the americans) russian aways win! ;) Also there was crazy deer which chewed Porter's backpack. Today we had really complicated way... but sometimes it seemed like if i was in paradize! Water from waterfalls is so tasty)
ooh! almost done)
