SUMMIT! Vladimir Kotlyar and Irina Zisman successfully climbed to the top of Mount Huayna Potosi
Vladimir Kotlyar, a guide of the 7 Summits Club from Bolivia:
Hello 7 Summits Club, from Irina Zisman and Vladimir Kotlyar from Bolivia! Today, February 14th at 8:45 am local we climbed Huayna Potosi! The mountain let us in, the day was wonderful, but not easy. All groups except ours (three or four groups with young and strong participants) turned around, without having reached about 100 meters to the top. We decided to try and achieved a victory. The three of us became the only summiters in the last week, although attempts were made by different groups every day. Irina - just well done! She fought like a real Valkyrie! Now we have arrived in La Paz and really want to sleep. And tomorrow at six in the morning we start to the "road of death" on bicycles.
