The most breathtaking "high-altitude" photos
August 8 is International Mountaineering Day. Today we have collected the most outstanding "high-altitude" photos in honor of all the climbers in the world and just lovers of mountains and heights who cannot imagine their life without a dose of adrenaline.
Be warned, this post is not for the faint of heart. If you're terrified of heights, these photos will definitely tickle your nerves. Mountains, rocks, cliffs, huge sequoias, cliffs and bridges - the people in these photographs clearly do not feel dizzy at the sight of such a height. The main thing to remember is not to look down!
