Great, EGEA Krakow, that you're offering participation! _O_

As for signing up I think that you can just send a message to e.g. me, so we would know more or less how many internationals will we have. Last year there were mostly polish people + 1 german (David) + one representative from Taiwan! :)

Nope. Just be prepared to sleep on bed (with at least one other person;)) or floor (on a matress) among dozens! of other people. Does anyone has pictures from upper room (of people sleeping there)?

Our cabin: http://www.lasek.102.pl/index.htm (only in polish)
You have to reach
Pewel Wielka, and than follow this road/path (trail starts in Pewel Wielka Centrum)
or Koszarawa and follow this trail (trail starts in Koszarawa Szkoła)

You can find both villages in a link that Magda have already posted

flüüü - 11-1-2009 at 14:48

as i was just watching the video from 2005 i think there should be a lot of snow to survive it _O-




Magda... - 11-1-2009 at 15:23

haha we practised in all conditions and snow is even not needed ;)


kamzik - 11-1-2009 at 19:12

jj right :Y in the worst case we can change it .. inner tube rafting championship, or kitewing championship or spinball in inner tube championship... :P


Jo M - 12-1-2009 at 15:32

Right now everyone has a chance to win, because me and lukash(winners for last year) haven't decided to participate ;P


Magda... - 12-1-2009 at 15:38

soo 2nd place participants have chance :) Great, this year trophy is mine :7:cool:


tevz - 12-1-2009 at 15:43

What makes you think that a Polish team will win? Besides, what happened with the olimpic spirit: "Important is to participate, not to win"?

Some instruction how to get

You have to reach, Żywiec and next go to Koszarawa (about 20 kilometers) by bus (trail starts in Koszarawa Szkoła) here is the schedule and than follow yellow tourist trail (look on the map).

Another possibility is going to Pewel Wielka by train here is schedule (trail starts in Pewel Wielka Centrum) and than follow road next footpath (is unmarked).

nice to see that someone was so crazy to take with him the camera:)
now we need to take all the pics together!


havlikowa - 19-2-2009 at 09:41

Clint _O__O__O_

It's superb! ^O^


Clint - 19-2-2009 at 11:00

Thanks, Marta :)

Because of it's size (around 100 MB) it took a while longer than I had anticipated before Youtube had finally placed it, and by that time I was far enough through my beer collection that I was barely able to place it here and go to bed. Anyway, this info might be useful too:

For the people with enough bandwidth (I believe 4 Mbps downstream should work), you can go to Youtube, and watch it in "high quality" which is 640 by 480, or a little bit less than average DivX.

You could also download it, provided you run Firefox with the download helper extension. If all doesn't work, and you want to see it in high quality, you should just wait three weeks until I'm back in Krakow, and I'll be more than happy to provide KGUJ with all the pictures and video's I've made during the weekend. :):):)


mychaus - 19-2-2009 at 13:03

Thanks Clint! Movie is great , but on the ending you should put also logo EGEA, because Bieniasz will be angry... ;)


Kamilka - 19-2-2009 at 13:06

Clint, the movie is fantastic:) Thanks for it!!!

My sincere apologies, Anna. O-) If there's going to be a v2.0 I'll make sure that it gets sorted :)
