HUAYNA POTOSI CLIMB - BOLIVIA. What to expect.

[@franznegrito8671]

Felicidades...y gracias por Mostrar mi Bolivia !!! 👏🏻👍🏻💪🏻🇧🇴

[@nicksadventuresbolivia2834]

Epic video. Bolivia is so amazing. Amazing mountains, Jungle ,Pantanal, Gran Chaco, Salt Flats and so much more.

[@MarkHarrison4]

I love Bolivia so much

[@nicksadventuresbolivia2834]

@@MarkHarrison4 Did you explore the Jungle regions. In Santa Cruz its crazy we do Jaguar and Anaconda trips. See them basically every trip. Was lucky to see a Spectacled Bear in Cochabamba too. I am aiming to climb Huyana Potosi soon and your video helped a lot !! The last part looks mental

[@JordenTually]

Holy heck I neeed to go here !!

[@MarkHarrison4]

Haha yea man! I'd go back

[@emmmdrole9461]

I will be there this month I’m so excited about it!

[@MarkHarrison4]

Make sure you aclimatize or take the meds... altitude sickness is no joke!

[@peterdaviesfilms]

It's so hard to capture film and endure what you went through. Well done. Loved the pacing and editing - thank you for putting this together.

[@MarkHarrison4]

Cheers Peter, I appreciate it. You're absolutely right it was difficult to not only piece together the whole story, but to actually film while we were up there.. I was light headed the whole time haha

[@peterdaviesfilms]

I saw! I'm going to attempt this in a few months - it certainly looks like the kind of trip that people underestimate. Seeing your film has made me a little more wary. If you don't mind me asking - how much training did you do before hand, if any?

[@MarkHarrison4]

nah, no training needed. Just need to acclimatize, 10 days in La Paz or similar altitude should do it.... if not, take altitude meds

[@peterdaviesfilms]

Roger that. Was in La Paz a long time ago. There are worse places to spend 10 days. Thanks for replying!

[@MarkHarrison4]

@@peterdaviesfilms TRUE! I love La Paz! ANytime pal :)

[@lf4459]

Just did it, reaches the summit. Painful descent after the climb....! Needed couple days for it to be a good memory

[@bedgar12]

This video is underrated and it needs more views!!!! Amazing work!!

[@MarkHarrison4]

Thanks alot!

[@rafaelcanaviri4815]

Buena nota... El huayna Potosi (El joven Potosi)... es una de las montañas mas visitadas de Bolivia...supera los 6000 metros... y por eso es lindo... acompañado de otras montañas ke superan los 6000 msnm.... grazias x su visita.

[@TheBoliviaShow]

I see this mountain everyday from my window. As an american living in Bolivia, it would be a shame if i never climb this. Im gonna do it this year 2021

[@MarkHarrison4]

yassss, you'll be fine if you live in La Paz. You've been acclimatized for a long time!

[@judithcalderon7517]

I was like "I have to do it" until I saw the narrowed iced path and "Yeah, that won't be me, for sure". 😅 You guys are really brave! Loved the video!

[@mazharhussain4200]

Hats off! Great video👌 always love the thrive in u to do the impossible👍👏

[@MarkHarrison4]

Mazhar Hussain thanks so much Mazhar, appreciate that!

[@jassioelintrepido7367]

Awesome! in La Paz you can find the Beauty of the Andes and Amazonas! Bolivia es Mágica!! 🏔🇧🇴

[@megaira86]

Gosh, you guys are the craziest persons. It looks freeking intense and spectacular at the same time. Glad, that you find your way back home safe. Does it feels good to come back home after such a long time of traveling or is it weird? I'm on a trip around the world right now and i'm afraid of coming home one day because you changed yourself so much while making all this incredible experiences and at home nothings changed. I enjoyed every pic and vid from this trip so much. So thanks for taking us with you.

[@MarkHarrison4]

Thanks a lot Petra! Feels really great to be home and see all my family including my 9 nieces and nephews. It's not that weird now because I guess i'm used to it... I've been overseas for 6 years now. Although I totally understand what you are feeling on your trip, it's a tough transition coming back home for sure.

[@magpiemikeproductions]

GREAT JOB GUYS! Such a great video... really well done.

[@a.o.8973]

Hi guys, thank for visiting my country Bolivia. Your video is amazing but it could be greatest if you put the music from lodes Andes de Bolivia, I' leave for you some music .

[@pacifist1360]

Wow, Huyan Potosi looks stunning, I would like to do this climb one day. Do I need to be a professional climber to do that? I did Lascar Volcano earlier this year and it was brutal.

[@palemoonlightmood]

Amazing shots in this!

[@MarkHarrison4]

Thanks a lot! Considering doing it? :)

[@palemoonlightmood]

Mark Harrison I don’t think so... I think I’ll stick to Utah😂

[@MarkHarrison4]

Well of all places to stick to... Utah is unreal!

[@grittsy]

Is this route the easiest? How many different routes are there? Lots of info missing incl how bad it has to get before you abandon the climb. Altitude sickness can be deadly not just an inconvenient headache. Looks like with some of those ridges your next fall could be your last. Did you get lucky with the weather?

[@maxtakesphotos]

Great video! The exposure on the summit ridge looks wild. Is there any alternative route? It's the only thing putting me off at the moment.. I've been to 6000m before but it's that knife edge I'm not sure I have the head for 😂

[@IanPryor]

Well done man! I really like the style!!

[@TheBoliviaShow]

This is Insane! Thanks for sharing! Im an American living in Bolivia now and i havent seen this place yet. Now you guys make me want to climb it!

[@MarkHarrison4]

yesssss

[@MegaKatthe]

Bolivians are Americas too. Respect you are a Usa citizen

[@Leon-ml4tv]

That's so awesome👍🏼👏

[@MarkHarrison4]

Leon Zhou cheers Leon!

[@julicarballido4591]

Great video! Very useful since I'm thinking on do it soon 😉

[@MarkHarrison4]

Yea Juli do it! My only recommendation is to acclimatize haha... altitude sickness sucks!

[@julicarballido4591]

Mark Harrison haha yeap yeap still remember your Insta storie about it! 😂🤢😵

[@MarkHarrison4]

hahah alright... I'm stoked for you!

[@chasedavidsson]

Wowza! Unreal job boys!

[@MarkHarrison4]

Chase Davidson even high for chase standards haha

[@tmarozick]

I went up there a few years back, solo. I lost the route somewhere above high camp and had to turn around. How did you find the route, or was it well tracked in?

[@mountainswinesadventures6737]

Great video , with wich company did you climbit?

[@christianspanggaard]

For people who haven't sumitted this mountain, please appreciate the steap ridges and minimal footspace @6:56

[@MarkHarrison4]

It's definitely hectic... while being super sick from altitude, it's definitely no joke

[@rockblog6047]

Great ascent! I have been there some years ago...unfortunately I ate something bad and had to stay in the hut...hopefully I´ll try again. Did you climb Nevado Illimani too? That was so far my highest peak.

[@MarkHarrison4]

Oh that's too bad about the climb... I would love to climb Nevado though, well done!

[@jocelynrubin1394]

amazing! 😍Kudos for making the climb👍

[@MarkHarrison4]

Jocelyn Rubin thanks Jocelyn!🙌

[@geico22081993]

amazing video, one question...what time of year is this video?, i wanna take a climb in the same mountain but i don't know when is the best time for doing

[@MarkHarrison4]

Geico Torres thanks a lot!! Well I did it in Late May this year and that’s getting kinda cold for Bolivia. I would avoid July August but anytime other than that you should be fine!

[@elbueno12]

Respect guys! I did the Chachani in Peru (6.075m) so I can really relate to the altitude sickness, headaches, breathing difficulties etc. Amazing video! I'm impressed you had the energy to take such good photos and videoes! Well done :)

[@MarkHarrison4]

Andreas Munch so glad you understand! And man I was delirious, lucky that Jon had all the energy to shoot video. So thankful for him on this one

[@jovelwalter]

whats the name of the tour company in Bolivia? I want to contact them and find out if February is a good time a year to climb

[@niclosioclanchez]

could you tellme wich camera do you use for meke the pictures and the video?

[@KiriliusTube]

Hi there! Nice video. Which local company did you use to support this trip?

[@MarkHarrison4]

Visit South America... they are based in La Paz

[@emirez4444]

[@rnkks3752]

Samy De Cort please start Slow with like 2000 m Peak, dont be stupid please

[@BEAUTYandTERROR_NothingIsFinal]

Awesome climb!!! Did you try coca leaves (or tea) to ease the altitude sickness? Really helps!

[@MarkHarrison4]

haha not at this altitude... we chewed them the whole way haha

[@BEAUTYandTERROR_NothingIsFinal]

ahahah max i've been was 5500m, but wow, now i know it gets harsh ;)

[@MarkHarrison4]

5500, yea wow that's still super high!

[@DudleyEliteTeamInternational]

What camera did you use to film this? Thanks for the great video

[@MarkHarrison4]

[@sandydaturtlexo738]

[@lindeneidelima3251]
