Report from Moeses Fiamoncini (SST Facebook page): Posted by @moesesfiamoncini: Post 1 - Annapurna 2022 - End of Expedition (3 May) Many articles about the world of mountaineering describe Annapurna and K2 as the most dangerous mountains in the world. Each climber will have their own story with them. I did K2 without oxygen on my first attempt and I just tried Annapurna for the second time, unsuccessful. Or maybe I should say: successfully because I came back alive. When I was just two hours ago from the peak, 7900 meters away, I was caught by the bad altitude and began to feel mental confusion, silliness and difficulty to walk, as well as nose bleeding. It was 9 o'clock in the morning. Waited two hours sitting, although I knew the symptoms wouldn't go away. The day was beautiful, sunny, little windy. And the top was there...so close. When that happens, there are two alternatives: you either go down and recover quickly, or you keep climbing and take the risks. But the decision to come down is harder than climbing any mountain. While I was there, sitting in my illusion that my symptoms could just disappear, two mountaineers who also didn't take oxygen passed me and encouraged me to keep climbing. It was painful, but I took all my frustration out and decided to get down. Two days later, coming down in bad weather, made it to base camp for the night. The next morning, 30/04 in Nepal, the rescue helicopter was in search of the two mountaineers who passed by me while I was sitting there. After reaching the top they had trouble getting back to Field 4 due to a 60 mph winds storm and couldn't find their sheds. Both suffered severe effects of frosbite. But I understand their decision to keep climbing, I understand like no one else! Both are excellent mountaineers with extensive experience. I choose to come back, but I don't judge them. What we lacked, who don't use oxygen, was aclimatization and when it comes to Annapurna and aclimatization, it's a long story involving geography and the fearless climate of this mountain. In a next post I will explain about it. Heartfelt thanks to everyone who prayed for me. Hugs! @thenorthfacebr
