alexander is a master photographer with thirty years of experience a brief workout and a glass of hot tea help keep warm in the wind the temperature here is twenty degrees. minus four degrees fahrenheit alexander has everything. a gas burner and a kettle he also has access to the internet and even a solar battery he needs them for his work. since i was a child i live by them. i love them so much i see nothing extreme about being here i don't feel the riggers a fly from this place i've got electricity a notebook and everything i need it's like. this is the right place for alexander's tent this vantage point opens up a breathtaking view of the surrounding rocks alexander takes pictures of sunrises

and sunsets he is about to start a new book about the. nature reserve to be illustrated with amazing pictures taken from the mountaintop. contains some thirty thousand pictures of this nature reserve because i want to share them with people who can't climb rocks they can see the beauty of this place so i want my book to show it to them and tell them about its history i think i owe a debt of gratitude to the reserve. alexander is fifty three years old he went on his first rock climbing expedition when he had just turned fifteen people intent on solo climbing without gear and safety equipment are known as still best in cries mask the word describes a subculture and a public movement enthusiasms share a certain set of rules and traditions and a passion for rock climbing and socializing admits such all inspiring landscapes.

of the soul bests. used to get their kicks from watching sunrise from iraq top. imagine the guys standing here with a girl looking at the sunrise and then going down to the campsite. movement goes back to the mid eighteenth century the early rock climbers lived in communities they built log cabins in the time where they spent several months and these pictures give us an idea of what the early crabs the climbers looked like they climbed to the top of ranks with safety equipment each generation improved climbing techniques and skills in accordance with. no matter how hard it was to climb a rock it was pronounced conquered if the climber got to the end of the path without resorting to any gear however in this day and age safety equipment is

a must in all competitions. faster faster we need to see when. anyone between the ages of sixteen and sixty is allowed to take part in rock climbing contests extreme sports are also held at night. it's no fun climbing rocks in the daytime in fact it would be quite boring were it not so scary as you look down there you can see a thing at night it's a good experience every single fan of the. i've been around since i came here from the urals. is a great place there's real freedom. geologically speaking the pillars are made of magma that cooled millions of years ago without making it to the surface several hundred rocks polished by wind and rain are concentrated in a fairly small area none of them is more than one hundred meters tall. some two

hundred thousand tourists visiting the reserve each year leave tons of garbage behind several times a year schoolchildren garbage collecting competitions in the nature reserve each team is assigned a certain area the one that collects the most garbage in the least time is the winner. hey this is my garbage not yours we're a garbage patrol. anyone wishing to get to the preserve needs to be in good physical shape it's a seven kilometer walk uphill from the highway to the nearest rock it's too much of a strain for some people. put is a member of the reserves staff she used to be a skilled rock climber but now visits the pillars only once in a while almost all her work time is dedicated to infrastructure development of the nature reserve we need to know public opinion is that we polled the public on such

issues as construction in the reserve the general public has the right to ban or allow something like that of the streets. however but that is packed with tourists even in winter time the nature reserve is the famous place for rest and recreation for thousands of present as residents ministration goes ahead with development projects in the reserve only after enlisting public support surveys are carried out to find out opinions. call from do visits rubicund a remark from time to time a tourist from time to time. what do you think about the entrance fee payment for the entrance i don't know it was during to get to. yes. the reserves divided into several zones tourists have free access to only four

percent of the total area but even the smallest zone contains more than one hundred rocks nearly all of them have names. of what looking at the of the respond for example is called the old man moles you can see a man's profile with a no lose an eye and to be aired on the rocks to look like people but this is left to people's imagination. on a single girl and some people like to see what they want to see still be slight to say people need to. cultivate their imagination other than what. the stall nature reserve is beside krasny arsk it's surrounded by housing on all sides its staff have not managed to isolate the world of nature from the world of people people enter the reserves protected area whereas beasts often approach people's homes in search of food for. thought these are tracks of

a male road deer. he wondered somewhere in the morning must have been a bit frozen after the night's cold judging by his tracks he was looking for food at all with the snow in the mountains is very deep now and sometimes avalanches occur it's hard for a road here to keep steady up there so they come down to the river. or didn't see it again and gone to the reserve against poachers he takes care of a forty kilometer border section while on duty he scrutinizes the snow to find out what animals may have appeared near the river deep snow in the forest compels road and other deer to look for food there sergey tries to make no noise he doesn't want to disturb the animals. we protect the wild animals from dogs that's where i go and come seen quite handy. if a dog sneaks into the reserve it has to be shot we also catch people riding snowmobiles on the icebound river and we trail snowmobiles to. this border

section requires special attention because it is very close to the city and this is where the wardens detain most of the intruders their job requires to patrols at a time wardens said again maxine say they are lucky if nothing happens while they are on duty. so just see. nothing special there were a couple of siberian grazing on the right bank didn't want to disturb them there were no trikes but what did you see any snowmobiles. quite often patrol wardens come across injured beasts birds or parrot was cubs humans bear the blame for that injured animals are sent to a nearby. there are more than five hundred species in it nearly half of them are recorded in the international red book of. traditional inhabitants of siberian

forests such as polar foxes and roe deer live side by side with exotic animals from africa animals from hunt climates such as a lion by the name of the game and they have adapted marvelously to the rigors of the siberian climate given again rachel is the pride of all park when she was brought here in two thousand and one was only three months old for some eighteen months we walked around the pole contended in every way possible just a short while ago she followed a female cop. tatiana thirteen. she is a foster mother for many of the charges now she is nursing the lion's little daughter her mother died during labor three other jobs died at the same time. we only knew it was them we could touch it. we didn't expect it.

but when we saw it we realized. she was not breathing. she was placed in intensive care for five minutes and was saved. the life of the female. she was. breastfeeding. given. time. you know if you can stand to back legs. from flex on something and looking very tall sometimes he attempts jumping fences but when he's done running likes to get him in the swimming. pool he sinks deep in water.

sometimes people even cannot find him. african. the reserve keepers were hard pressed to find placement. aspen leaves in crowds. and don't have access to. the entire winter. this is how many described washington recently to reach a peace settlement in the middle east is it time for the u.s. to drop to create. and that's

never a. cosco . to memory. i was ashamed that i. i was ashamed that i had been a hero. or i think. that i was a good soul. and i think i'm just.

there are scores of came around the nature reserve. challenges of different complexities to those who ventured to explore this is a favorite venue for people who like the silent beauty of nature rather than the cries of birds and animals. scientists who specialize in the study of caves plan to go down to the bottom of the watershed one of the reserves most beautiful and least explored. the team are finalizing their route and checking their equipment a strong pair of overalls climbing the equipment. helmet and most importantly extra flashlights are needed to stay. not even caves and it isn't the people going to. need to follow standard rules and safety regulation which. if you fall from a height of only one meter or a meter and

a half you could get seriously hurt but you need to keep that in mind and keep training to avoid such situations. tanya and nutty are the most experienced especially ologists they're the first to go down once there they take care of science with equipment and food. it's like that you've been given your places where nobody has ever set foot when you go there you realize that you're the first to reach some particular gallery or grotto in that case curiosity ousts fear and you get real thrills. the cames layout is very involved many of the tunnels have not been explored but it's not so easy to reach them deep vertical cleft cold chimneys and spill you all just a jargon pose the main threat another is fear compounded by darkness. how would we know. it seems like we've covered maybe fifty meters i don't know are sixty

meters if you measure it directly i don't know what's there further in. it takes nearly eight hours to cover one hundred meters a cave changes people's sense of time and space any careless step or jump might be the last one the collapse are so deep a torchlight cannot a movement at the office of wall. at the same time a cave is completely vulnerable to human impact this balloon way which no one you can see a beautiful formation if you will it's not something you see in every cave. these take a very long time to form much longer than a single human lifespan when people touch these or even make them a little bit dirty that's what poses the greatest threat to them the expedition has achieved. with ramifications which have not yet been explored.

to examine every. we're going to go along the rocks there's a passage up there and chances will stumble into some interesting room. one hundred forty. the group home to take pictures. and have a rest before the law. is an absolute must when. you really just need it after all the exertion. this expedition has not been crowned with complete. passages have turned out to be . a lot of unexplored out of the. spring. of snow. it's more. than ten centimeters

a few years ago one of the record levels through in this place. was quite a job. makes it difficult for the director of the meteorological station. to reach a faulty sensor and to adjust it the station is working automatically all materials are registered by a computer there was practically no thawing in the winter just a strong wind that's why deep snow would stay in the reserve till late spring. sports. competition. difficult stunts.

from far and wide with thirty three thousand dollars up for grabs in the competition prize fund. competitions are held in the park for. between. hundreds of extreme sports. snow and cold weather make even rock climbing more exciting the most experienced it's still best preferred to practice their sport in winter time a warm fleece hat and special iron studded boots instead of summer footwear complete the climbers wear one also needs wool and mittens this is the climbers

know how. each one's hands warm and frost and maximizes the fingers grip on rock with a rock filled with snow ice covered stone surfaces make climbing more difficult and as a result more interesting and exciting. i think men will always skin to test themselves you can only test yourself if you're ready to take risks risks are part of the test that's how it's always been and will always be people will always climb of these rocks. a leg. a professional mountain climber he climbed the highest mountains in the world his first climbing skills he acquired here on v's rocks today helps his friend photographer alexander coots off take a few photos for a future book. first climbed a mountain thirty five years ago the parity of rock is among his favorites every

outcrop of the rock is well known to him climbing this rock is not for novices but it's quite easy for are like. climbing on the cross. in winter and in summer. we do it without safety equipment basically there's nothing difficult about it it's a purely psychological exercise but it takes years to achieve the result. climbing the almost sheer cliff. usually takes only ten seconds however right now he moves as slowly as possible so that his friend alexander coupes off can take a few good shots. makes each move very carefully one of the climbers rules is not to risk in vain. you know the left the thumb i know that the best

climb these strokes without safety equipment are very cautious people even say they're between target that's why they're still alive it's very important for any climate to feel the borderline that should never be over stepped. on the edge is the motto not only for rock climbers but. jumpers as well the young mountaineers think that climbing rock faces is not enough rope jumpers attach themselves with a system of ropes and jump into a gap for the sake of a. a few seconds of free falling. of the cliff for three hours and the support team . on the border between. reserve. preparations start immediately are fixed and extended the gap.

lies in your head you concentrate on the technical aspect of your jumps you also take care of the safety aspect you don't need any trouble any incidents make sure doubles every single element of the jump. the cliff is ninety meters high. jumping requires precise calculation if the rope tension is one meter more the. five meters longer. crashed. i think. everything's ready. to continue its preparations. working independently from.

if one of them snaps the other. which is exactly what it's supposed to. mean while alexander finishes the preparation for jumping. ropes checked properly seventy five meters and. do this many other people to try it. were. because now ski is still doing is one of the most famous nature reserves in russia although it is one of the smallest it is famed not only for giant rocks there are similar rocks in the u.s. yosemite national park is famous not only because of its tiger landscapes explorers

will find far more interesting sites in siberia and forests. the fact that the nature reserve is adjacent to siberia is largest city has resulted in a place with an almost cold like devotion for six generations of people who take an immense pride in calling themselves still boasts. of if. it would be soon which brightened a few new songs from finest impressions.
