Israfil Ashurly has opened the climbing season this year. The famous alpinist is currently in Nepal and has climbed Mera Peak (6,476 m), which is considered the most popular trekking peak in the region. This expedition can also be regarded as a preparation stage for the Everest conqueror's upcoming new challenges.
Idman.Biz reports that Mera Peak is located near mountains such as Everest, Lhotse, Cho-Oyu, Tamserku and Ama-Dablam. That is why the Mera trek is considered one of the most scenic routes in the region and offers participants magnificent views of Kanchenjunga, Makalu, Nuptse, Everest, South Lhotse, Kangtega and other peaks.
Ashurly successfully climbed to the summit and shared an interesting detail of the trek. Thus, the alpinist's daughter gave him a Pikachu figure for the trip, and Israfil took this toy with him to Mera Peak.
"When your daughter gives you Pikachu for the next expedition, all the harshness disappears," said the Everest conqueror after the summit attack.
He is also planning to climb the eight-thousand-meter Annapurna (8,091 m). This peak is also located in Nepal. Five years ago, Ashurly tried to climb there, but unfavorable weather conditions did not allow it and he had to retreat. But the alpinist is preparing to face this mysterious and enigmatic mountain again.
The mystery of Annapurna is related to its harsh climate and dangerous conditions. Numerous alpinists who have tried to conquer this peak have lost their lives, and some have gone missing. For the local residents, this mountain has a sacred meaning, it is considered a place of power and spiritual energy. They believe that spirits and divine beings live on the slopes of the mountain, so they perform religious rituals to seek protection and blessings. All these mystical legends further increase the attraction of Annapurna and make it special for researchers, alpinists and spiritual travelers from all over the world. Despite all the difficulties and dangers, this peak continues to inspire people.
"Five years have passed since my first attempt on Annapurna. I had to retreat back then, but it seems that the time has come for a new meeting with this mystical Mountain. Moreover, the first book I read about the world of alpinism was Annapurna," said Israfil Ashurly.
