Surviving Blizzards in Kamchatka

Surviving Blizzards in Kamchatka

Kiersten and I were packed close together for warmth, huddled in a tent in the middle of the night. Outside the blizzard was raging with air temps -30C and winds of over 100kph. Our hopes of climbing Klyuchevskaya Sopka were dashed. Welcome to Kamchatka

Kamchatka

A land far, far away with fire breathing mountains waiting to be skied!

Our expedition to Kamchatka in 2013 to ski Klyutchevskoy Sopka was an unforgettable mountain experience. Hard, tough, weather against us. But we loved it!
