Pomník obětem horolezecké výpravy v Huascaránu 1970, Memorial of mountaineers in Strašnice, Czech Republic.

The Pomník obětem horolezecké výpravy v Huascaránu 1970 is a stone memorial in the Strašnice district made from Hořice sandstone. It stands approximately 2.65 meters tall and 2.3 meters wide, designed by artists Miloslav Hejný and Milan Vácha.

The memorial was created by sculptor Miloslav Hejný in memory of fifteen Czechoslovak climbers who died during the 1970 expedition to Huascarán in Peru. One member fell from thirty metres on 18 May below Huandoy; on 31 May an earthquake dislodged ice and rock, and the avalanche struck the base camp at 15:23 local time, killing the remaining fourteen climbers and their Chilean guide. The sculpture has stood in the park since 1972 and is dedicated above all to Hejný's friend, the sculptor Valerián Karoušek, a member of the expedition.

The sandstone figure is also called "Život" (Life) and is meant to evoke a mountain or an eagle, with a sense of falling mass. It honours sculptor Valerián Karoušek, a member of the expedition and a friend of the author, Miloslav Hejný. The inscription reads "IN MEMORIAM ČS. HOROLEZECKÉ VÝPRAVY – PERU 1970".

The sandstone statue stands on a grassy lawn in a park at the corner of V Úžlabině street, on the boundary between Strašnice and Malešice, in Prague 10. It is an open, freely accessible public park with no opening hours. The surface is damaged by paint, the joints between the parts have fallen out and lichen grows in places.

The sandstone figure is 265 cm tall, 230 cm wide and 200 cm deep, and its surface is marked by paint, with the joints between its parts crumbling and lichen in places. The Prague City Gallery catalogues it as VP-208. The inscription reads: "IN MEMORIAM ČS. HOROLEZECKÉ VÝPRAVY – PERU 1970".
