A guide of the 7 Summits Club Evgeny Fedyunin reports from Elbrus:
20.08. Hello everyone! The group of the 7 Summits Club "Selfless Capybaras and one Fossil Khibinoid" moved today from the hotel to the refuge "Nat. Park" at an altitude of 3900 meters. After settling into comfortable houses, we climbed to the refuge of Eleven at an altitude of 4100 meters. There we held "snow-ice" training on the technique of climbing on the terrain such as it will be on the ascent. The weather is super, we worked everything out. On the descent we met a group of our SuperGirls Club led by Alex Abramov!
After lunch we held training on belay systems and the technique of moving on fixed ropes. Now it's dinner and rest.
