Climbing self-reliant and Summiting Aconcagua twice | Part 2
Come and join me on Aconcagua for some time in camp 2, basecamp and two summits! I have to admit that my filming game wasn’t very strong on the summit days, largely due to the dying of my GoPro and phone batteries in the -30C and 50km/h+ winds that I encountered, especially on my first summit day. So, for clarity, here’s a bit of an explanation of what went down on that trip!
I hung out in camp 2 for a few nights before going for “a walk above”, which ended up on the summit. It didn’t take me much more than 5h to get to the summit from C2 and then a few more hours to get back for one more night of acclimatization. The only issue was that I got a bit of nerve damage on my toes because of op...

Climbing self-reliant and Summiting Aconcagua twice | Part 1
Просмотров 3,8 тыс.Год назад
The Aconcagua trip vlogs are here!!! It was so cold and windy that my phone and my GoPro kept on dying often just when I was about to film, but at least I got something. :D Originally this expedition was supposed to look very different, but Don got a health issue 24h before the flight to Argentina took off and had to cancel. So, I decided to go on a training trip by myself. And maybe try a spee...

The effects of a sleepless night on my performance I like to try out different climbing scenarios in my training to understand myself better for when things get serious. For example when climbing in high altitude, you often need to start your climb in the middle of the night and perform in high risk terrain through the night. So I wanter to monitor the effects of a sleepless night on my body an...

    Lotta sweetheart can you do me a favor and send God an email... I know you Finns have his email address. Tell him to get rid of winter, I can't stand this season. Autumn is OK in the beginning but then starts to suck too. I need Summer and Spring, I'm losing my mind when the weather gets cold. By the way, now is an excellent opportunity for you to have mercy on my soul and upload a new episode on youtube. Don't think about it, just do it. OK babe?

    Lotta sugar bun... sorry to bother you again, but can you make a video about adult diapers? I was informed that some people use them for climbing expeditions. I must confess I haven't pooped my pants since I was 3 years old and I really miss those days. I want to make diapers great again. 🍼 OK enough shenanigans for now, have a nice moomin weekend.

    Lotta sweetheart, can you make a video about the thermodynamics of farting on a mountain... especially if there are climbers below you, does the fart go sideways or downstream? I was sitting on the toilet today and this question popped in my mind and as usual I come here to embarrass myself. 🙃

    Lotta sweetheart ...we need an update regarding how you're doing/coping (specifically how many bags of candy were eliminated over the past week). And when I say "we" I mean me, I need an update because I'm completely pissed off from what I read in that article and I need closure. I started following you a few years ago for the pretty views and now I'm emotionally attached. Looks like it's irreversible so please don't judge me for annoying you so much. 🙃

Bon Voyage for now, I'll be back in 10-15 years if I'm still alive.

    Hey Lotta I was just thinking... maybe you should add Climbing the Giza Pyramids to your bucket list. Totally illegal but exciting at the same time. If you plan this ahead it's totally doable, just arrange some helicopters to rescue you from the summit before all hell breaks loose (I'm thinking Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible). Anyway, now that Finland is in NATO the Egyptian government would be less likely to start a war over this and you can add an exciting accomplishment to your portfolio. Headlines: "Moomin beauty queen fights for women's rights in Egypt, climbs Giza Pyramids against all odds." Also get a t-shirt with "Got Sisu?" printed on it. Follow my advice and thank me later 🙃.
