to, to look back at the past with a clear emission to try to affect the future. and with us you up to date on many people's mckinnon. thanks so much for watching the ice cold. jessica new an expedition ventures on 2 places that no one has the climate research in the ice, the dos march 3rd on the the high toddress of slovakia. the world's smallest high mountain range. defined by

cool is one of your last mountain porters delivering supplies to the mountain hutch . with an i go. it's good for the ego book, so i recommend it to anyone who feels like superman not will suggest that among people should come to the mountains and try it out for us to please look up to those who know how their muscles head and heart are doing a new and va law school facility at school. second, the porters who also refer to themselves as contrast to carry up to $100.00 killers on their box at great risk loss to tell us that the whole ridge above us broke off the avalanche plunged all the way into the valley, taking you right with it you want to hear uh the

of the fresh from the bakery stuff and by cool is caring a very delicate load today. purple. so again, the, these are legendary home, a book d, kind of the dumpling who is cloth. the best point is to store them for the height of the delay. choice block thought of each hot has its own storage, where the goods are packed to evaluate for saturday that we're taking some vegetables up today, some vitamin with some green on. so. so let me give you something key and the sweet dumpling was the point him at the bottom and the book dummy talk today from great talk a little bit in the story. this smells so good for the last

full development police. the styrofoam blocks at the bottom to get the right center of the brand. i bought it into a could. you can use anything light, but also stable if may not cause it's a windy day today. let's go. so i want stack the boxes as high as usual. the wind of the mountains is unpredictable. it can be a problem if it to the heaviest weight should be here around head high and touchy nothing to do. and i would only get, i mean, i love you hate you have to speak to me is that we're still still us. maybe not a but i figure you can see the position we have to carry it. you have a spec example tilted forward a little on the hey, i mean, you're not too much. i mean, yeah, but also not to upright that but i can keep almost into this position, gives you the best control. i'm simple. he the less the most of the difficult supposed to come to a full symbol. a strong gust of wind could not stuff on and his high load office speed any time he built his wooden carrying frame himself. the

construction is very old and traditional. he uses old fire brigade, hoses, stripes. oh the good it looks good. is it up a little bit? i will have to see what the window is like and the thing with it. ok, i don't know if your legs will tell you whether today will be a good fit or a difficult walk and with it. okay, i level level. so what if the school does it? and this guy stefan has a 4 hour climb ahead and 1000 meters of height. and then both contests is my normal pace. first of all, before i check that everything is working as it should physically come over. the machine has to warm up slowly because i don't, couple day is i that's the last,

you know, i hit save the liberty that said it's nice when you realize it's going well. swamp, essentially loaded up, right back, so silver. so out here you feel how small you are and what really matters 2nd scene all the after the warranty to when you come back down, what you for your a better person, but i have a sofa the that's the shift. it's all right. so far the wind isn't too bad, it's okay to walk. further on, there's a spot where you have to be careful. we dance with the wind there or then we can see that if you make the right steps, it's almost like dance. when you get your split out and okay, it's a split out the furnace things, but the heavy wind and the weight of the frame for stuff on to take frequent breaks

as the gotcha. okay. so how much are you in your area? not much today. i have around 60 key lives level there. so was it hard to know that it was okay? the small so i didn't want to push it because of the weather. i had to struggle with the wind further down. yes. let's double it. is there anything to take down from the hot? yes, there are a few things still there. okay, july the okay. tell me the last few meters to the heart of thieves. she definitely knows every single step of the window here, but we've made it. we're good now. what do you measure?

let's go back to stop is the one of the how to do that. can i? she's done the sample sitting there in 20 years. she definitely has gary tons of loads up the mountains. come rain or shine. okay . okay. good. okay, we're at the heart of it. i'm happy to position so. ok. so job thought they always go whether the 3 didn't good. it was a bit worried about the wind, but it was okay. that 52 kilo steel, 52 kilos. good seller help you one year. oh, per kilo is standard $52.00 kilos of book the on the way up and 40 kilos of bedding going down makes it around. 90 euro is pay. that's on the unpacked it off with what

i'm looking forward to a soup and a beer. nobody . okay, is with the next a very this is only the keeper, mickey, can each kind of get fresh goods delivered almost every day. let sure he has 10 porters working for him altogether. so they missed that, but it's of those in the notes, he gave me the porter spring up 70 percent of the goods. the helicopter only brings things like beer heating pellets and the large gas bottles clean away, but there's no permit for a cable car. so this movie in the immediate future is, but it's only, it's a high priority conservation area and that's a good thing. if we had our, the police cables and i'll see it and that out, we have to get the slipping of finally, i think the porters bring us everything we need is that the most mostly not because the most, each of the,

the wind has picked up and is blowing from the back against the high carrying frame . keeping his balance on the rocky terrain is a challenge. the during this time ok the lot to some,

some down the phones are not on usual the force design. luckily this one didn't and badly. but he still has most of the journey ahead of him. his descent will take 2 hours, the 5th. okay. now everything is okay for the wind and the fault. it was bobby, it shouldn't have happened with my experience, but it happened. oh, no problem. i'm all right, that's the main thing. my son is not able to get on isn't okay. a physical physical. that was it. let's get out of here fast. we'll get in the car, drive down and enjoy a good dinner. uh, i'm looking forward to seeing my family,

my boys in montana. oh ok. the the days off are a rarity for stefan and the peak season. but come november when tours number's fall . he finally has time for the most important thing in his life. let's go so a little later today, i'm out with my family talking to me show and cooper issue. we're doing a day trip together as they demonstrate this, pull it out with that. could i get a feel for it? if it's, it's great to be out in nature together, the thickness for the time off and outdoors. but of course i want to show the boys the high toddress just kind of surrounding area and, and beyond that i could have somebody, it's the only point on good. we don't have that many opportunities to spend time

together outdoors, that they all are too light of the assessment that it will include a scroll. it does look like the look, there's the 100. what was the you remember the 1st time we came here and i'm looking forward to the suit. you can drink 10, daddy can have a beer. that's hot. ok. ok. she definitely knows the way to the pleasant events. hot as a guest, not as a porter. one of the few roads in the region leads to it. so the young manager yano, my tava, can transport his supplies with an off road vehicle. hi, i'm trying to see what's new with a super nice. no, not much. but i can see you've been busy now. will you be done by winter? i didn't know you were redoing the road to day. i to lose the school. the cities were doing that for safety reasons. the road was collapsing and so were renewing at

the true and national park has been under strict protection since it was founded in 1949 building a cable car or more roads to deliver goods is forbidden. suddenly somebody, personally, i don't think it would be right to build roads here. i don't agree with it in this lesson, but this rude was already here. donna, if our root already exists fine thing, but i don't want cable cars to be built in the high tetra, see the stuff that will develop a lot, nokia and for now, that's how things will stay. the transporters and their families are upholding their century's own tradition. hey so i'm afraid for you these be me,

especially when it's cold and you're working at night which it i've always noon the gra mountain porter. so it was normal for me. nice. that'll united or is it the family is important and the older i get some dollar more. i look forward to coming home to the boy. so now you're not, you know, the mall a lot going on and i much cool. but with family comes responsibility for the time will come when i have to give this out to you know, say, but i was pretty good. trespassing with different states country to. i don't know when i can't planet. uh, i don't know the names of now everything is working fine. i'm ok. ok. ok. thank you . a deposit that we did over the phone and martino met in a mountain hunt in the national park. 15 years ago. she was working in the kitchen . p as a puerto, both of the use of interest situated is equal to just real things together for

many years. with time you get used to each other, but sometimes it's not so nice to knows. i don't like it when he's working as a porter in winter. i mean, the weather is often bad to see the . the rangers are responsible for protecting the national parks, animals pool and stuff on were range your colleagues for a long time. they still work together today, counting the go like touch, rush. i'm want thought, you know, we do the count once in spring and once in autumn, this to my colleagues have to go all over the national part to do it. everybody puts their data in and out. that's where it's all collected and evaluated to really define the trash them one step on and pull and have to climb to the highest parts of the mountain. they soon make an interesting discovery. oh oh,

look at this. it looks fresh, didn't get into, i've missed that. i, that isn't easy for you sees maybe one or 2 days old people. there are lots of them in the national park to last echo. so my hotel there are lisa's and brown bears here to mom and i will call the song of the car safety and predators live here in the high talk to us as well. so here's the evidence that's good. that can go across the trails in the national park are close to tourists from the start of november until mid june, which is allowed a particularly diverse range of pharma to develop in the high to address the comes the key. so we're looking for titration y v, this is a slow pick up and i lot of the distant boat steam on the air in the grass just where the snow was swept away. okay, okay. okay. okay. okay, i'm listening but it's not move out. yes. so just to load the sun in the shade new we use up to those last year, there were the patch of snow. it's on a focus on hold on. okay. okay. but those come on. yeah. so now it's looking to the

left to level. okay, let's continue. oh, but it was amazing the only to show them why they are counting on the symbol of the tetra national park. they're a highly protected species of this kind of someone doesn't exist anywhere else in the world. most of the stuff that people don't see, i think the population of time pressure might increase graduates from the critical level of 250 to 400 animals. and the whole by contrast was not to cisco. so that in the last 10 years, the number has arisen to over 1000 and it could, it, this figure is stable to day or 2. so sometimes there are a few or sometimes more, but 1000, it's a very good figure for the population. what comes with stephane has many memories of this area. it's where he started out as a mountain porter and where he lost a good friend. that goes to them and it's good for today is a beautiful day. but i mean, we're at a sad place for me and my comrade. it's not the one called the rocky hang. there

was a lot of, you know what you see there was an avalanche here in 2000 that killed our good friend and puerto, you're right. petrosky go me over, that's all. i got a very good man who loves the mountains. the sudden avalanches are the greatest danger for the porters or facilities of his whole range of us, broke off the avalanche punched all the way into the valley. taking your eye with all the construction of avalanche nets is also prohibited in the strictly protected national park. nothing should spoil the pristine nature of this unique area. the disability to the protection of the national park here is very important because the area small, it's one of the smallest national parks and the world and 9 inches. and that's why nature conservation should have absolute priority over mass tourism in any interference with nature to these mama to me, i'd like to see,

i mean over 4000000 tourists from all over the world, visit the tetra national park every year. so things like yoga, ok, there's a lot of pressure to change things from all over the but all the more reason to set rules about what's allowed in winter and what's allowed in summer. so much that will be so like everything the whole county, the little there has to be a balance and it's very fragile about the nature of, of say menu. so i hope it stays this way for a long time. but i can only, boy, i said, is that we can still experience many beautiful moments and meet here for whatever reason for supper with the pacific time. and then it just stays like this. it was so beautiful. i'll talk with a fellow like a customer. the preparations are underway for the highlight of the year, the so called sure by raleigh. almost all the high touch reporters take part and taking part in the $100.00 kilo run for the 1st time and i'll be carrying 50

kilos in the mixed doubles. my partner will carry the other 50 killer. please common way in if you haven't done so yet. today the porters have to carry 100 kilos for almost 3 kilometers alone or in teams of 2. a great test of strength. we also time 22 and it's my 1st time here and also somebody probably can, this is my 1st time and i'm carrying 30 kilos. why am i doing this? because i want to test my limits. i want to know if i can do it. that's what it's about. the weather is perfect, but just, you know, it's terrible. that's our character. we who's up the mountain and say only evil is bad. not of weather stuff on my car will of course also be taking part into sure about riley. but he still has time

for a coffee before the start. i'm not sure just on the, you know, covering this with house. so maybe one of the most beautiful old buildings in the high to address with, you know, it's the porter sanctuary for the month. a beautiful building with its own soul and energy functioning. uh, we built the sherpa cafe and sharepoint museum here should also stefan and his wife martino had been running the sherpa cafe and sharpen museum for 90 years. it's an important additional source of income for the family of 4, but that's not all. forms must be for those that exclusively said to ourselves, we can create something here. we have the opportunity to tell people about the history of the high countries, the study, and the mountain porters, and how they're intertwined. so the only people in a of the, the tantra porters frequently capture on video, how exhausting and dangerous their work can be. the customer is kamali currently have 6 hudson, slovakia, so that are totally dependent on us porters

a little somebody asked me i was about 30 then to go through the federal cove level here. i am with a very heavy load to you. so here you can see how we do it on skis in winter scale . 40 sheleesha what's an episode? level key. we porters are strong man city, so we'll see how soon we come up. the we can carry loads that tourist us can't carry some of them and there's nothing to stop or blend these. nothing holding up the, the step which us we're out there in any weather a little bit what the helicopters can't do and what the cable cars can't do. the porters can do that in almost all conditions within those should read a screw that kind of put me in the thoughts of fixing. technically,

this is the most demanding section. not only on the waiting pod, lose me hot, but in general. so, but it sits on the face kept to be 100 percent. sure. what you're doing here is that there's no room for error. if you fall here, some colleagues haven't, can be fatal. people simply have to be careful because of the avalanches defending the summer. because of the storms and thunderstorms will come, we should we have to avoid those dangerous adults. some of what's coming up. so we've had sad years, we'll fix it. ok, the sure for that museum has existed for 9 years now. but if a trouble during this time we've lost 5 colleagues, now some died in an avalanche of the others felt. see me for main things at the community. i hope that good years will come and nothing bad will happen because we're a small community. we really feel like when somebody is missing of the stuff i didn't only lose a good friend and you and i pick time sky,

you and i was also one of his most experienced colleagues is come out of it all. today is a big day of celebrations. good, it's the memorial run for your life, the transcript in memory of our comrade who died in the avalanche and even if the also and memory of others who are no longer with us. it's like a little christmas for us. it's not just a race, but a meeting of all the porter is a simple says own it might, you know, will support her husband's stuff on at the race today. so i hope it goes well. the $100.00 kilo run is hard and the weather is bad. i'm keeping my fingers crossed. ok, i only so i'm just trying to get out to see if the low distribution is good over it and if everything works ok, just to test. so as cosca before during a $100.00 kilo run, it's not a pretty sight. thank god, it ended. well,

he picked himself up and carried on running. the best thing would be for everyone to reach the top safe and sound. expert in iowa. tells me to talk about this is my mom. i'll say more mama. okay. my sweet boy. okay, let me remember you are right and that he was always fair. we will hold a minute silence at the top and also to the others who can no longer be with us. be fair on the track. those who are fast or pass, you might make a stepson's also ready to get going. he hasn't carried $100.00 kilos for

a long time now. ok. it says the owner is when you have one of these kilograms it looks like for you. okay. you okay. good luck, stephane vicki. we're the only that the that's not the most it is, but every step is important because because the whole universe is the 2 meters ahead of you. you don't need to give 100 percent, but to 100 percent it's hard. okay. or coming to the 1st,

the short cut where it gets slippery and there are train rules. okay. quote on the what would you do? so that would be the worst thing would be a full sleep. there are slippery spots on the course. okay. she's good. thanks a lot, i hope that goes well and everyone arrives safely go over the aspects of record to be broken today. and these conditions that we did over to this, our company got to interpret this stuff because it would make us of the, the

front of all the roof itself, all the super super my good. and you are the guardian angel, the disability, both it gets a good feeling up here with the guys. good air, good spirit, good energy and scale. your i, sol, is here and the soul of the others who are no longer with us. even if we missed the guys isn't there with us today. we are happy. okay,

well my son is such a wonderful person. sometimes it brings tears to my eyes that i have a son like him. the stars is we started to understand clearly and what you need to do for us. ukraine was assembled. are we moving towards europe or not? or the 2013 the still is afraid. democracy protests and ukraine, the country response to your christ dispute system. this has recognized the danger and the terms of the frontal and all the signs with us. we really

understand this are easily file. uh, we will lose our conscious euro, my done dot february 17th on d, w. the staying fit and healthy is as important today as it's ever been. today, we're all about smart watches and fitness track us and living a healthy life with wearables. if you need that little exit motivational push, getting gear for shift, often times the slicker and more comfortable alternative to click on hop the right track as is the smart watch for many they our lives die product. but in the medical world, they have the potential to be a lot more than just that. how well do they work and do medical experts take them seriously? we got the chance to meet someone with 1st hand experience. so i send the val, whose mouth wash might have just saved his life.
