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. 

Meeting with Tomasz Kobielski

With great pleasure, we would like to invite everyone to the meeting with Tomasz Kobielski, one of the top Polish Mountaineers, the Conqueror of the Crown of Earth (the highest peaks on all continents, which includes Mt. Everest). On invitation from our member, Jacek Maciaszczyk, and in cooperation with the Polish Culture Society, Mr. Kobielski will visit Edmonton on 31 Oct. His meeting, and slide show, will start at 19:00 in the Polish Hall, 10960-104 Street, (next to Royal Alexandra Hospital). There is no entry fee (!) and light refreshments will be served. 

This is a rare opportunity to meet with the World Class Mountaineer! We hope to see you ALL there!
