The group of the 7 Summits Club under the leadership of Sergey Avtomonov climbed to the base camp of Ararat
The guide of the 7 Summits Club Sergey Avtomonov reports from Turkey:
Greetings to all from the slopes of Ararat! Today, our group called "To Turkey to warm up" moved out of the city of Van and reached the city of Dogubayazit in a couple of hours. From there, we finally saw our destination, Mount Ararat. Then, after getting a snack and water, we went out along a beautiful road towards the base camp. On the way, the rain tried to scare us several times, but in the end it did not get wet. It took us 4 hours to get to our accommodation for the next two days. We stayed in tents, had a delicious meal and just rested for a few hours. In the evening we discussed the plan for tomorrow and had dinner. Now we are resting before tomorrow's acclimatization rotation.
