7 Summits Club company news

Greetings from Tanzania! The Iskorka group ascended to the Kibo assault camp, the height of 4720 meters. Now we have lunch, rest, and come to our senses after more than six hours of walking. The height is already felt, members conditions are within normal limits. At night, around 24:00, we go out to storm the summit.  The weather conditions are favorable. Wish us good luck! The guides of the program are Alexander Dorojukov and Olga Startseva.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Viktor Volodin reports from Nepal:

Today started at 4 am. While we warmed up, we got ready and at 5 we went to our last acclimatization rotation to Kala Patthar. It was cold enough in the morning, but we overcame the difficulties and climbed to the 5600 mark. And there we met the sunrise in all its glory. The sun's rays illuminated the giants of the Himalayas - Everest, Pumori, Nuptse and many different beautiful untouched mountains. Next we have to descend to Deboche. The weather is good, the participants are in good shape.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Viktor Volodin reports from Nepal:

It's October 22nd.  The Upward Movement Group has done a great job today. We left Lobuche, reached Gorakshep, had lunch there and moved to the Everest base camp.  The weather favours us, but the wind drove us. The participants feel good, the mood is even better. Tomorrow, an early exit for the decisive acclimatization climb - to Kala Patthar 5600 m. Have a good weekend!

Джамбо! Группа «Искорка» на связи из Танзании. Сегодня день отдыха и акклиматизации. Мы прошли от лагеря Хоромбо до красочных Зебровых скал, поднялись на высоту 4000 метров и увидели Килиманджаро во всей красе. Отдохнули с чаепитием и видом на вершину. Мы оценили маршрут и уже с нетерпением ждем его. Гора на первый взгляд не сложная, но придется потрудиться! Погода замечательная, настроение бодрое, вся команда чувствует себя хорошо. Завтра переезжаем в штурмовой лагерь Кибо. Ведущие программы - Александр Дорожуков и Ольга Старцева.

Andrey Berezin, guide of the 7 Summits Club, reports from Nepal:

Namaste from Nepal! A new group of the 7 Summits Club called "Nepalese made" has gathered in Kathmandu and is ready to go to Lukla. From where on our way lies towards Mera Peak, the highest trekking peak in Nepal, 6476 meters.

Today we have October 21. The weather is surprisingly sunny and windless.  The group "Upward Movement" slowly left the village of Feriche and slowly reached the village of Lobuche, having passed the five thousandth milestone. Conditions and mood of all participants are excellent. All good mood and positive in life!

Friends, hello to all from Tanzania! Today we were greeted by the bright sun and the singing of birds. We had breakfast and held a morning medical check-up for the whole Iskorka group. All feel great, saturation is 90+. The Mandara Hut pleased with its accommodation in fairly comfortable cabins for 4 people. Yesterday we passed a picturesque and uncomplicated passage, met waterfalls, small rivers, exotic plants and animals. We were moving towards the Horombo camp (3760 m). On the way 15 km, a set of 1000 meters. The first meeting with Kilimanjaro took place! Kibo Cone and Mawenzi Peak appeared to us. We got to Khorombo a little tired, but happy.

The group of the 7 Summits Club "Iskorka" has arrived in Tanzania. Yesterday we stayed at the Aisha Machame Hotel, held a briefing and checked the equipment. Today we drove up to the gate of the Marangu Gate National Park (1894 meters), then we got permits and went to the Mandara hut with a height difference of 900 meters. Nature pleases with bright colors of flowers and plants. We managed to get acquainted with the local inhabitants of the hotel - small nimble monkeys and fluffy rabbits. The weather favors us, there was a little rain in the morning, but now the sun is shining. Wish us good luck! The guides Alexander Dorojukov and Olga Startseva are in touch.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Viktor Volodin reports from Nepal:

On the calendar on October 17. The Upward Movement group left the village of Phanding in the morning. We walked surrounded by big mountains and suspension bridges.

Kathmandu met us with good weather. All participants are assembled, in full health and good mind. Today we are walking around Kathmandu, tomorrow we are scheduled to fly to Lukla.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Boris Egorov reports from Turkey:

That's the end of the climbing program in Turkey. On the last day, Alexey and Zhenya and I scouted the distant canyon sector. It is a beautiful place near the sea. We climbed not so much, but at the same time quite difficult routes of the 6th and 7th categories. And swam in the sea on a wild beach. We had a good workout during the trip and were a little tired. We got what we wanted.

 The 7 Summits Club together with the project 8000.Guide opens booking for expeditions to all 14 eight-thousandths of the world! In the spring of 2023, we plan to climb three of the fourteen highest Summits.  "Annapurna is the first eight–thousandth."  And it will be the first in our project.  On the basis of many years of practice, expeditions began to climb Annapurna at the very beginning of the spring season. It's more cool, but the avalanche danger is significantly reduced. And in the same season, you can have time to recover and go to other eight-thousandth. Including Everest.

March 25 - April 28, $29,150, Alexander Abramov.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club group Andrey Berezin reports from Nepal:.

Namaste from Nepal! The group "From Above is better" has reached the final goal of our journey. Namely: Everest Base Camp and Mount Kala Patthar, from which the highest peak of the World is visible. Now we have started moving towards civilization and aviation.

The corporative tour of the guides and managers of the 7 Summits Club to Arkhyz turned out to be extremely successful in terms of the weather. Like the day before, today was sunny, warm unseasonably. We just returned to summer and got full satisfaction from a long, tedious and fabulously beautiful route.  In turn, all the lakes of the Sofia necklace - the emerald pearls of Arkhyz were visited. Thanks to our wonderful guides Evgeny Fedyunin and Dmitry Semenov! Thanks to everyone who drove and waited for us!  Our journey took seven and a half hours and ended just after dark. It was the right thing! On all agenda items…
