Hello,
Here I am back down the mountain Aconcagua, I could take my first shower ... a real pleasure.
Since my "descent" to the base camp, things were fine, and very quietly. Many times I have been walking on the glacier overlooking the base camp, seracs and penitents are superb ... but global warming is that the glacier retreats and fields disappear penitents saw eye ... There are three weeks, yet I was crossing the fields of penitents, now they have disappeared ... Another sign that nature gives us on his condition ... and it is seeing.
Strangely every time I went to the glacier, I brought waste ... it's a place where few people go, and there is still some waste ... carried by the wind, others I really do not know certainly not ... how long past expeditions.
I've also been to a summit in the evening and return at night to take pictures and make videos of this beautiful mountain with a single light. I wanted to have beautiful images in order to show you the beauty of nature ... While it is a broad and huge, but we must then imagine that it gets closer and that we want this place to be clean and beautiful. There are details that are incredible ... Nature is really beautiful, and I hope we can all enjoy, but also the animals that make up this planet also benefit peacefully.
I am currently in Mendoza, Argentina desert town where it's 35 degrees .... it changes the altitude of the cold!
I returned to France in two days, and prepare my classroom interventions ... I have received many emails of encouragement and support, especially for students who are following the project. Thank you for this support, I appreciate it.
So I say to you very soon ... in your classes or at conferences.
Arian, the sweeper of the summits.
