I love Kamchatka, it's the best place. But there is one moment of displeasure - the time difference. As a frend feed addict I always suffer from empty line everywhere - in LJ, facebook and others... ))
It's one of the most popular recreation places in Petropavlovsk. The climbing is not so hard, you can do it on foot or even by car - there is a road (not so perfect surely)) to the very top of the mount.
