During trip Skialpinism at Kamchatka 2009 – list of articles, photos and results we also had skied down volcano Viljuchinskij (2173 m). At its bottom we slept two days in tents. There was windy weather described by Matus as: „nicely fresh wind blowing with speed higher than pleasant“. So, we started to dig consume hole, which insulate eating people from strong wind.
