Slackliner on glacier in the Andes
Impressive impressions from Bolivia. The Italian slackliner Miriam Campoleoni despite crossing gravity and shines with precise body control at the highest altitude. The pictures were taken in September on a glacier in the Andes, north of La Paz. And this mission also made a special impression on the athlete, who has already experienced a lot. “I don’t think that the altitude matters much to me, because I live 300 meters higher than La Paz, in Penas, and that’s why I’m very well acclimatized. And also because I train a lot in the mountains and in the high mountains. I have I’ve got used to it now, because I’ve been doing it for eight months now. But I felt the crossing in Chachacomani, because we were at almost 5,200 meters above sea level and on a glacier that made a big impression on me. That definitely influenced me a lot . But not so much here. ” What Miriam Campoleoni meant by “this” is her recent crossing between the houses of La Paz. With great serenity she hovered over the busy streets of the city. Miriam Campoleoni is an Italian slackline expert. And after her experiences in Italy, she is now looking for and finding completely new challenges in Bolivia and literally: new highlights.
