Report

We started from 2400mt altitude from Cevirme village at 04:00 am. Our plan is to reach to the summit as fast as we can. Within a skyrunning discipline, our tempo was very good to 4500mt altitude. After that level we slowed down and made small stops frequently. At 4900 mt level we reached to glacier crossing section. At this point we wore our ice crampons special for trail running shoes. After 6 hours from the start finally we were at summit of Ararat. We all carry our mandatory equipment and we just use camp1 (3200mt) and camp2 (4200mt) for water supply. And going back to starting point took around 5 hours.
