Veikka Gustafson and Kazuya Hiraide have summited Gasherbrum 1 on sunday morning 26.7.2009 with four Bulgarians.
Congrats to Veikka – Onnittelut Veikalle yhdestä kaikkien aikojen kovimmista suomalaisista urheilusaavutuksista! Ja turvallista paluumatkaa.
Congratulations on completing your grand slam Veikka. It is a magnificent achievement. I greatly respect and admire your determination , courage, persistance , skill and ability to do the hard work , all of which are needed to climb major Himalayan peaks. It was a real honour and privilege to climb Mount Everest with you in 1993 and to meet you again in Kathmandu in 2003. I wish you a very happy and successful future. I do not know what your future climbing plans are , but what ever you do, look after yourself and remain safe and live to a very old age.
Kindest regards and all the best .
John Gluckman
