Hi, I’m Alexander. This site grew out of a desire to preserve and share the experience I gain in the mountains. All the safety guides, route breakdowns, and stories are the result of my time, my risks, and sometimes the bumps and bruises I honestly write about.
If my photo reports have helped you stay on the trail, if the safety articles made you think twice about your gear, or if the “mystical tales” and other stories made your evening a little better — I’m genuinely happy. If you want this project to keep growing, new routes to appear, guides to become more detailed, and stories more engaging — you can support it.
Ways to support
If you’d like to say “thank you” financially, you can do it here:
How it works
Your support is an investment in the content. It goes toward:
• Gear for new, more challenging routes — so the reports stay interesting, relevant, and safe;
• Hosting, domain, and various services — to keep all the articles accessible;
• Transport, food, and other expenses during hikes;
• My time spent on shooting, editing, and writing texts and guides instead of looking for advertisers.
Thank you for being here. Even if you just browse the photos, read the stories, or bookmark my routes — that’s already a huge support.
And if you decide to help financially: I’ll be doubly grateful.
