Sakha is the home to Pik Pobeda, the highest mountain in Siberia, and where apinists Tamara Lunger and Simone Moro attempted the first ever winter ascent of the frozen monolith. Discover more: bit.ly/TheNorthfaceYT #NeverStopExploring
@@aestheticsabotage5098 dude, like only -5. That's nothing... Here in Belgium it rarely goes below 0 and if it does I'm still freezing in my hoodie, t-shirt and jacket. This dude is in a t-shirt in -5 degrees, that's badass
What a man, moving ice blocks with bare hands and water until your knees could kill you in 3 minutes. Not him, i think before jumping in the ice he said hold my beer please.
Beh Simone e Tamara si conoscono sono dei grandi si sa, ma il tipo che guida il furgone a 3:40 che e' in maglietta? Ne vogliamo parlare? Assurdo! Ciao.
Did you know that departing from Montreal, Quebec, Canada, it is faster to get to Paris, France than to get to Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada? Really put the scale of country in perspective. :P
Fuseey I know Canada is big, I never said it wasn’t, but Russia is about 2x larger lol either way they’re both impressive. I mean the US is large too..about the same as Canada, but it’s just hard to comprehend having THAT much land as Russia does
You can see two Western-Europan people, fully geared by Northface and still freezing, while the locals just have non high tech stuff and seem very comfortable. :D
Locals are using completely different materials for their clothes. Only natural materials like animals' fur, leather, wool and down are able to save local people from extreme temperatures and wind. Such clothes is extra-warm, but usually is very heavy and not really suitable for high activity like sport.
Fenomenali a sopportare un freddo simile! Quello che impressiona di più è che questa montagna è "fuori dal mondo"! Grande impresa, bravissimi! Un saluto Giuly Zanga

It is a balmy 55 in England today, and my friend & I were sat outside having a coffee. We moved indoors, as we found it a bit cold when the sun went in. Proper weather weaklings!!! Respect to these adventurous people. "Your car is broken, maybe you are dead"
So here's a question. At 1:35 it looks like Tamara is wearing the Summit L3 Down Hoodie, but it seems this is either a prototype or something that's just not for sale to the general public, because her jacket has the Gore-Tex logo. As far as I know, the Summit L3 doesn't have Gore-Tex, which is a real shame because the lack of a waterproof membrane is the only drawback from a jacket that is otherwise the pinnacle of perfection. In fact, that's why I returned mine. So my question is: TNF, why aren't you selling this to the public?!?!
Pik Pobeda (Пик Победы) is in the Tian Shan mountain range in Kyrgyzstan. This mountain correctly translated from Russian should be called Pobeda Mountain (Победа (гора)). It is also not the highest mountain in Siberia. Belukha Mountain (Гора Белуха) in the Altai range is 4506 meters. Munku-Sardyk (Мунку-Сардык) in the Sayan range is 3491 meters.
The mountain in the Tian Shan mountain range is called Pik Pobedy. In the video they did not say it was the highest mountain in Siberia, but in the Siberian Artic Polar Circle. Then in the description they got it wrong obviously...
@@kto3412 Not. Still Victory Peak, which is located in Yakutia in Russia ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9F%D0%BE%D0%B1%D0%B5%D0%B4%D0%B0_(%D0%B3%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%B0)
There was a river unfrozen with craks, and the bulldozer was trying to make a "ground bridge" so that the car could go trough, thats why the bulldozer was there. Everething is explained in the book of Simone :)
Hey guys from NorthFace! Pobeda is NOT the highest mountain in Siberia. The highest mountain in Siberia is Belukha, 4509 m. Pobeda is the highest point of Yakutia (the region of Russia which is geographically not even Siberia). Guys, you should be more careful with data.
@@astrodomine708 Kamchatka is located in the Far East region. You could be surprised but Far East is not Siberia. So Кола Бельды is right and Belukha is the highest mountain in Siberia.
@@astrodomine708 I know that people beyond Russia often don't see the difference. And maybe traditionally the Far East could be called Siberia too. But it is some kind of stereotype now. Actually we distinguish these two terms in Russia :) And people from the Russian Far East can be upset about calling them Siberians :)
@@user-gp2no9fw8r I understand that there's Siberia as a political region but Siberia is also a much larger geographical region (just look it up on Wikipedia), maybe not accepted by everyone but still...
I love this climate. It's very much like Canadas north here. Yet we had two weeks of minus 35 to minus 40°C and now its only -5°C. It warmed right up and is slushy not dry. I prefer the cold and dry weather. We dress for it. We prepare for it. The muskeg wich is swamp in summer is hard and frozen in winter and the land opens up to us wich is inaccessible in summer. All logging is done in winter. All the winter roads open and are maintaned. We can cross all rivers and lakes. If the car breaks down we have preperations for that. You just need to prepare properly and the land gives us what we need. A small portable shelter and wood stove can work miracles.
I wish all big climbs were more of an adventure like this. Something that isn't simply a well beaten path that you follow and do what so many around you and before you have done. That is why I might do the Annapurna circuit one day, but EBC or many other paths have little interest to me.
Fantastica serata ieri a Sesto San Giovanni, con Simone e Tamara a raccontare questa straordinaria avventura in un luogo pazzesco. Bravissimi e umili, per niente "gasati" e disponibilissimi nel dopo serata a fare foto con i fans e firmare autografi. Grazie Sergio
Beautiful video, but it would have been nice to know how cold it was at the summit. It would also be interesting to see how it compares to the temperatures at the summits of Antarctic mountains.
