Travel: Kyrgystan and it's beautifull Ala Kol Lake Action Cam

Hi dear Steemians,

It has been a while you've seen travel content from me, but here it is with a major comeback. This summer I spent most of my time in Kyrgystan with my wife. As you might know I love capturing nature at it's finest with my camera, but in this case I also brought my Yi Action Cam to show you lucky we felt whilst we struggled and killed our calves up against the wall of nature.

Kyrgystan has few of the highest mountains in the world. Since we aren't to experienced in hiking, we picked a mountain which is @dboontje proof hoping our water would last till the finish. Three days and over sixty kilometres brought us to a hight of 3860 meter above sea level.

Please enjoy my first post out many yet to come. Follow me if you want to see more amazing photo's / stories / blood sweat and tears / movies about central asias Kyrgystan.

Thank you

ehy dear @dboontje, your video is very nice and fun! and with truly spectacular landscapes, worthy of a postcard. it's nice to see the road through the room, like walking with you to the top !! Was the tent like a shelter already built? it was a nice effort if you say you are not trained !! congratulations

hey @dboontje, first of all congratulations of the great holiday's destination and interesting footage from it. After watching Dark Tourist on Netflix, especially episode called Stans I really felt some inner need to also explore these lands. For a random European tourist or traveller, Kyrgystan isn't so well described and known place. In fact, after a more careful research there is more question marks than answers, making this land way much more interesting to visit. Have you seen this Dark Tourist episode ? What was the idea behind a trip over there ?

Impressive panoramic view. Even the wild vegetation is kind of pretty with thos epruple flowers and tiny white ones. What was it with those small rocks piled on the big one? The tent looked pretty elaborate and strong. Did you build it? Those hillsides looked pretty slippery with so many small rocks piled there. It looks like that area is prone to landslides. Beautiful shots of the lake. Really impressive place.

That is a great way to spend summer! What made you choose Kyrgystan? It's not one of those places where tourists go I guess, which is great as you can find wild nature and don't be bothered by hundreds of other people.

I'm looking forward to seeing rest of the Kyrgystan series. It looks like it's going to be a lot of fun and adventures :)
