Russian Open 2010

Ну что, русскоговорящие уже все равно все знают:) Как перевел с английского на русский свой долгий пост о ЧР Артур: Чемпионат России 2010 будет в Курае:)
Что тут еще добавить:)?
Вот САЙТ с описаниями, регламентом, регистрацией. Вот ФОРУМ с актииииивным обсуждением регламента. Из нового, пожалуй, только более ранние, чем обычно, сроки проведения соревнований (с 14 по 28 июня, никто толком погоду в это время не знает). И как-то дороговато все звучит в этому году. А так все как раньше - огромный завораживающий Алтай со своими родными красивейшими ущельями и ледяными речками:)
Ну, и для тех кто по какой-то случайности в Курае еще не был, я ТУТ довольно-таки подробно его описывала:)

I've written once already about the Kuray mountains, a wild and amazingly beautiful place near the border with China, Mongolia and Kazakhstan. This year the Russian Open and Russian National Championship are going to be held there from 14th to 28th of June. I think this place doesn't need any additional promotions - just look at the pictures:) The only questionable thing this year is the weather conditions at such early dates. Usually we fly there in July, but this year the dates were changed because of the European and Pre-Wrold competitions. I described everything about Kuray last time: map, living, weather conditions. I would only add that the Kuray mountains are so huge, so wild, that they really give this feeling of the strength and the endless energy of nature. And it draws your there like a magnet again and again.
Yes, it would be not an easy adventure for European pilot. It is a long flight (four hours flight from Moscow to Novosibirsk and then the organizers would give you a transfer to the flying place, which takes almost a whole day), it takes money (the Moscow-Novosibirsk-Moscow flight is about €250, transfer is €50, entry fee is about €200 with retrieve included, living is about €10 per day), it takes time (more than two weeks) and it takes balls (you've got to live in tents, wash your face and brush your teeth in a cold mountain stream, wash your body in a banya (a kind of sauna), fly in high mountains with at high altitudes, and land near one single road). But! It is unforgettable life experience, isn't it;)? Haven't you been everywhere, but there:)?
So, you are welcome! We would help you organize everything:) Here is the website of the competition with information, photos and registration form. And, please, don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions:)

Пока описывала все на английском, аж самой в Курай захотелось:)
