🥇 A Journey from Solang Valley to the Pinnacle of Friendship Peak (Part-01) by Hive account@himalayanwomb

A very famous peak growing in the lap of Pir-Panjal Mountain Range is “Friendship Peak”, its height according to “Indian Mountaineering Foundation” is 5289 meters and it is located in the very famous valley “Solang” of Kullu District of Himachal Pradesh. Let us know about this peak which has won big titles like “Non-Technical Peak” and “Tracking Peak” in such a short time. Hell Race has been organizing trail running races in Solang Valley for the last 3 years. Every year, Solang would reach there with a dream in his eyes that “this time together we will climb Beas Kund and Friendship Peak”, but after the race, instead of becoming a tracker, it is more fun to become a grizzly bear, under which any power in the world can take the body to the next level. Can't stop you from going into hibernation mode for 6 months.

🥈 The rock complex "Deaf Stones" by Hive account@vesytz

I visited this unique place - Deaf Stones in June of last year and the feeling it left in me is still very strong. The rock cult complex is located in the Eastern Rhodopes and according to data is one of the largest such complexes in this area. With a girlfriend we arrived by car, passing through the village of Malko Gradishte, and we went to the place by bicycle, passing a dirt road with beautiful surroundings.

🥉 Naga City Adventures: A Year-End Trail Tale by Hive account@kev.incredible

As we count down to the end of 2023, I can't seem to shake this feeling of something I can't figure out. 2023 was quite life-changing for me; I resigned from my job and was unemployed for months before diving into a new adventure. But amidst all those changes, one thing remained the same: my passion for the outdoors. During those unemployed months, the mountains and the outdoors were there for me, helping me manage the stresses of life—high expectations from family and friends, and the disappointments I encountered along the way.
