Georgia Greentours Itinerary Wildlife Holiday Botanical Tour Birdwatching
Georgia A Greentours Itinerary Days 1 & 2 Davit Gareja We leave the UK in the afternoon bound for Istanbul from where we'll pick uo our connection to Tbilisi, landing there early in the morning. Note that there are now flights from Edinburgh, Manchester and Birmingham which follow the same routing. Open steppe country with rolling grasslands covered in shimmering stipa grasses stretches southwest from the airport. There is only one road, a few tracks, and hardly any settlements. Occasional early Christian churches interrupt the landscape, some of these, such as the one at Davit Gareja, world-famous. Natlismtsemeli Church is fantastically situated on an eroded bluff above unspoilt steppe rich in beautiful plants. The spectacular Dictamnus caucasicus dominates along with orange Colutea lutea and the stunning Verbascum formosum. The last blooms of Iris pumila can be found amongst Celsia orientalis and the endemic Thymus tiflisensis. Flocks of Rose-colored Starlings make sorties past us as Griffon Vultures hang low in the air. Amongst Campanula hohenackeri and large pink- flowered endemic Salvia garejii fly plenty of butterflies and garnering nourishment from the many knapweeds on show is the bizarre scarlet Phelypaea coccinea. Day 3 - 5 The Greater Caucasus – Gudauri, Cross Pass and Truso Gorge The impressively high snowy peaks of the Greater Caucasus are visible even as one drives out of Tbilisi. Within an hour we are rising steadily up the Aragvi Valley and into the heart of these great mountains. Higher than the European Alps and much less populated, this is a truly wild region. Once up into the mountains we’ll pass few settlements until we reach the ski resort at Gudauri.

From: Lee Greenwald To
From: Lee Greenwald To: FS-objections-pnw-mthood Subject: Twilight Parking lot Date: Monday, March 03, 2014 11:44:20 PM Attachments: 2013 International Report on Snow Mountain Tourism.pdf Cross-country skiing experiencing a Nordic renaissance Olympian.pdf Twilight Parking Lot OBJECTION 3-1-14 EAE v2.doc Dear objections official, I previously raised several objections concerning Mt Hood Meadows application to build the Twilight Parking lot. Though some, not all, of these objections were ostensibly addressed in their responses, they were not addressed fully nor adequately. I raised concerns regarding Meadows assumptions on growth in demand for Alpine skiing. The last ten years MHM stated continued growth trends, but actually the most recent previous two years that has not been the trend. The true growth is in Nordic skiing. The majority of the Nordic community is against the creation of the Twilight lot without a comprehensive analysis of potential future use of this terrain, and nearby Nordic trails and connecting trails. This type of analysis has not been done, and would be precluded by proceeding with the construction of the Twilight lot before all future use options have been considered. Second, I asked that MHM be required by the FS to place the funds, $500,000, for a Nordic center in a designated account for a future Nordic center building, and a restrictive timeline for construction. If the parking lot is to be built, the Nordic community should have some prior input on the Nordic facility to be built prior to the lots final approval. The response that was posted simply stated that "a" facility would be built within three years.

First in Georgia: the Gudauri Ski Resort Operates Their New Remote Avalanche Control Systems Thanks to MND SAFETY
PRESS RELEASE February, 1st 2021, Sainte-Hélène-du-Lac, France First in Georgia: the Gudauri ski resort operates their new Remote Avalanche Control Systems thanks to MND SAFETY MND, n°1 worldwide in avalanche risk prevention and control via its business line MND SAFETY, with its Georgian partner Mountain Resorts Solutions (MRS) have deployed the first ever avalanche risk control systems within a Georgian ski area. Operational since this fall, this large-scale project is already a reference in the region and allows Mountain Resort Development Company (MRDC), the Georgian state-owned company that manages the operation of the Gudauri, Bakuriani, Mestia, and Goderdzi resorts, to benefit from explosive-free systems and controllable remotely. The Gudauri ski resort, the largest ski area in the Caucasus Mountains, has chosen "Made in France" technologies and equipment to prevent and secure avalanche risks – a first in Georgia. Located at an altitude of more than 2,000 meters, the resort is equipped with 24 Gazex, 10 shelters / mini-shelters, 1 DaisyBell and a new generation of global monitoring system, including 1 weather station and 1 infrasonic detection network, to continuously analyze and monitor the site in real-time. Since the beginning of the season, the 20 installed fixed systems have allowed to carry out 3 avalanche control days to secure the resort which, although closed to skiers, guarantees a secondary connection between Kobi and Gudauri. MND SAFETY systems use a technology based on an explosion of mixed gases and are remotely controlled to allow a total safety to the operators working on the field.

The Georgian Military Highway Or 'Bottleneck' of the Caucasus?
The Georgian Military Highway or 'bottleneck' of the Caucasus? jam-news.net/the-georgian-military-highway-or-bottleneck-of-the-caucasus April 5, 2021 Main route from Georgia to Russia In the north of Georgia, in the snow-capped mountains, there is a road which has connected the countries of the South Caucasus with Russia for centuries. The section of the road from Tbilisi to the Verkhniy Lars checkpoint on the Russian- Georgian border, historically called the Georgian Military Highway, is today the only land highway connecting Georgia with Russia. It is vital for Armenia and also important for other countries in the region – Turkey and Azerbaijan. However, from autumn to spring the area becomes rather dangerous – heavy snowfall can block traffic at any time, avalanches are common and thousands of truck drivers or tourists get stuck in the cold. In summer, traffic is also difficult due to the large flow of tourists and occasional mudflows. What are the prospects for the main highway of the South Caucasus? Due to its geographical location, Georgia is the most important transit country in the region, connecting the countries of Central Asia with Europe. Cargoes through Georgia and from Georgia are transported by sea, rail and road. Highways account for 59 percent of the country’s freight traffic, which is about 17.2 million tons per year. The length of international transit roads in Georgia is 1,467 kilometers. One of the most important of them is the Mtskheta-Stepantsminda-Upper Lars road, which connects Georgia with Russia. Of the 315,500 cars that drove on the roads of Georgia in 2020, up to 45 percent drove on the Georgian Military Highway.
