Aconcagua, 6962 m

 9 February 2025

With a bit of delay, nevertheless with great pride, we inform that on 9 February 2025 one of our members, Piotr Zielinski, summitted Aconcagua, the highest mountain of the Americas and the highest mountain outside of the Himalayas, thus setting the Club's record. 

We hope that Piotr will find time to write a bit about this adventure. In the meantime, he sent a few pictures we share with our visitors.

From Barrier Lake to Tuktoyaktuk

 13 July 2025

After unwinding the challenges of Yamnuska at the fire place the previous night, not without the help of alcohol, a good portion of our group opted for a slow day - a walk along Barrier Lake.

Yamnuska (2025)

 12 July 2025


Yamnuska is a "cultish" mountain in Bow Valley, near Canmore. Long-time Mecca of climbers, predominantly from Calgary, Yamnuska is also popular with scramblers (those willing to do the whole traverse of Yamnuska) and hikers (those finishing the hike at Raven's End). 

Yamnuska is so attractive that the song related to it has become the Club's anthem.  Not surprisingly, this time Yamnuska was visited by over 20 members of our Club, including the cream of it - all these beautiful women!

Conquering Flood Mountain: A Return to Grande Cache’s Iconic Peak

By Boris Bokov

June 28, 2025 – Flood Mountain, Grande Cache, Canada.

After a long absence, I finally returned to Flood Mountain—one of Grande Cache’s iconic Bronze Peaks—nineteen years after my last visit during the Canadian Death Race. This time, however, I wasn’t racing against the clock but hiking with friends, taking in the stunning alpine scenery, and reliving memories of past adventures.

Dinosaur Trail or Prezes' Birthday

 7 June 2025


The Dinosaur Trail is almost 19 km long, mostly flat, with two "technical stretches." I named it after the dinosaur figure, which stands in front of one of the houses. Perhaps because of the strong winds that day, the ride was attended by only seven bikers (from the left): Mike, Piotr, Grace, Voytek, Witek and (the hand of) Marian. The seventh biker was Andy who took the picture.
