On 11 March 2012, we’ve climbed Lespezi-Caltun North Wall, situated in Fagaras Mountains. Silvia was leading for all the 6 or 7 pitches of mixed ground until the top (Lespezi peak-2517 m). Not too difficult, but not very easy either.

Sunday, 12 Feb 2012, together with Silvia Murgescu we headed towards Valea lui Stan for ice climbing. Valea lui Stan is situated in Fagaras Mountain, as you drive from Curtea de Arges to Lake Vidraru. From the road (Transfagarasan) where you leave your car, is only 20 minutes hike to “Airplane” Ice fall.

This was my Winning photo at an International photo contest. I received Emails from people questioning about the story behind the photo and I decided to write it down.
It happened back in the early spring of 2006.

Arpasel-Vartopel is the most technical part of the main ridge of Fagaras Mountains. You can either climb it from West to East (as we did it, and it’s the most demanding) or from E-W.
