 Only a few days left before start of expedition of the 7 Summits Club on Everest,. Preparations are underway in Moscow, but most of them are going on in Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, under the direction of our permanent “Director of Sherpas” Mingma Gelu.

 The pride of the 7 Summits Club is our team of Sherpas. It began to take shape in 2003. Thanks to the hard work, above all, the permanent leader of the expeditions, Alexander Abramov, an efficient, friendly team was created.  They clearly understand  their role and knows how to help climbers to achieve their goal. This year, 24 employees from Nepal, Sherpa nationality, will be  sent to Tibet with us to work as guides, high-altitude porters and cooks. They received a new set of clothes and are finishing preparations for going to the base camp.
