Mehr als 13 000 Ski-Höhenmeter für den Guten Zweck
Durch die Corona-bedingten Veranstaltungsabsagen suchte Lukas Kaufmann eine neue Herausforderung und rief die Aktion „Sporteln für ein Kinderlächeln“ ins Leben. Bei den dazugehörigen 24-Stunden-Events sammelt er Spenden, wobei eine seiner Aktionen eine „24-Stunden-NEOOM-Skitour-Challenge“ war.
Insgesamt konnten mit “Sporteln für ein Kinderlächeln” schon über 10 000 Euro (8500 Euro für die Kronstorfer Kinderhilfe und über 3 000 Euro für Karibu World) an Spenden gesammelt werden. Lukas Skitour-Challenge wurde mit einem Kamerateam von Mühlviertel-TV begleitet:
Wie er selbst seine Skitour-Challenge erlebte, beschreibt er wie folgt:
Am Samstag startete ich pünktlich um 14 Uhr bei fast sommerlichen Temperaturen beim Schilift in Freistadt meine „24-Stunden-NEOOM-Skitour-Challenge“.. Die ersten 12 Stunden war ich nie alleine, da immer wieder Freunde aus Enns, Linz, Asten, Steyr und Bad Goisern mit dabei waren.. Am meisten setzte mir der Temperaturunterschied von über 10 Grad beim Start und Minusgraden in der Nacht zu – speziell die letzten Stunden in der Dunkelheit vor dem Sonnenaufgang waren nicht so lustig, danach ging es wieder viel besser.
Insgesamt bezwang ich 132 Mal den 100 Höhenmeter Anstieg und legte 13 200 Höhenmeter in 24 Stunden zurück. Aktuell konnten somit 2832 Euro für KARIBU WORLD gesammelt werden!!!
So viele Ski-Touren werde ich jetzt nicht mehr machen und deshalb freue ich mich schon wieder riesig auf`s Mountainbiken.. 🙂

The Story
OK, it’s the most famous glacier in the world. You can’t expect solitude here; every fifteen minutes a busload of tourists is released in the direction of the viewing platforms. And yet the sight of the Perito Moreno Glacier in Patagonia with its 4-km wide and 60 m high escarpment has something touching, something incomprehensible about it. It is a natural spectacle that takes your breath away and that instinctively describes the relationship between man and nature. Humility and tranquil joy of existence seizes every viewer.
The Photographer
Ralf Gantzhorn was born in 1964, holds a M.S. in Geology – and has even worked as a geologist (as an independent consultant in the contamination sector). He has been climbing since 1983 and working as a photographer since 1985. As a northern German, he is always torn between the far too distant mountains and the fresh sea air, but he’s found a compromise in Scandinavia, Scotland and Patagonia (where he has now spent over three years). He enjoys organizing trips in areas where unfamiliar vistas – which haven’t already been photographed 1000 times – lure from every corner. He often experiences his images as far too static, but then is pleased with the abundance of triangles in the structure and the fantastic light.

The picture was taken on the summit of Marmolada after an ascent of the Vinatzer/Messner on the south wall. We didn’t reach the summit until 10:00 p.m. so we bivouacke (planned) there. We woke up to this riot of color …
