Uebelmannia pectinifera var. eriocactoides RNK 99, 10 k N of Curimataí, Minas Geráis, Brasil, 2009. The nicest "eriocactoides" form ! Betélná forma, velká špica RNK 99 !!! eštěžezmesetamsVaškempo14dnechjebánísevterénudohrabali ...

 Tak jo a jen letmo. Po 14 dnech v terénu a pár dnech strachu, s  posranýma trenclama, zme se vysekali z lesa hustníku (nemám rád moc slovo prales) a potkali s Vénou tudle krasavici RNK 99 !!! Ty dny, co jsme minuli i jiné úžasné formy blmánek a vůbec spoustu živočichů a kytek: ně...kdy příště...ě (kdo zná Katy pochopí snadno a rychle.)  

Prostě: přeskakuju vejlet (17/08/2009 – 13/09/2009) ze Santa Barbary do Curimataí (tam spoustu pif !) a pak zpátky do hor. Mimochodem zme vo 7 - 8 gps kilců minuli Uebelmannii nudu a to nás dneska kurwa sere !!! Ale co už, život je jak bonboniéra, řečeno běžeckým klasikem ...
 
Tak prosím, pifko nebo bíra do ruky, a čumte na náš vejlet ( před 17 járy, oh jak magické !), já z dovolením při poslechu houbičkovejch Doors, riders on the storm...

O.k., just briefly. After 14 days in the mountains and a few days of fear (and with our piss-poor pants..) we got ourselves out of dense forest, (I really don´t like the word - jungle), and met beauty RNK 99
with Vaclav !!! The days we missed other amazing forms of Uebelmannia and whole bunch of creatures and plants: well... may be next time ...

  Simply put: I´m skipping over the trip from August - September 2009 from Santa Barbara to Curimataí (lots of beers, surelly we are Czechs !) and then back to the mountains. By the way, we passed 7 - 8 gps kms of
UEBELMANNIA NUDA. It still pisses us off that we didn´t find it first ...But oh well, life is like a box of chocolates, as a running classic once said ... 

So please, grab a beer and check out our trip (from 17 years ago, oh how magical number again !), while I allow myself to listen the mushroomy Doors, riders on the storm ...




































Constantia cipoensis, very, very rare miniature orchid (2cm of diam. max.), grown only on the one stone ....


...and after 15 years, 2023 trip with Václav + KKK,  I saw: nothing ...

It was very dry year, you can see the dried Cipocereus bradei





Václav Toman, a structural engineer, the brain of the team, the smarter one in the team compared to Rudy

and the three pics from RNK 99 Václav Toman ...



An orchid which the locals call " bola de pedra "



and this is the end, beautifull friend, as Jim Morrison sing ...


                      vomited off 7.2. 2026., another magic number ...
