A new group of the 7 Summits Club called "Frozen" climbed to the "Ai" cafe as the first step to the summit of Elbrus
Guide of the 7 Summits Club Evgeny Fedyunin reports from the Elbrus region:
August 26. Hello everyone! Today, a new group of the 7 Summits Club, which took the name "Frozen", began preparing for the ascent of Elbrus. The participants climbed for acclimatization along the slopes of Mount Cheget to an altitude of 2750 meters, that is, to the famous "Ai" cafe. It was not hot today, there was a light rain from time to time. The group walked briskly.
After lunch, we went to the rental store for the missing equipment. Tomorrow we move to the high-mountain shelter National Park, we will spend the night at an altitude of 3900 meters and continue acclimatization.
Take care of yourself!
See you in the mountains!
Good weather and good luck to everyone!
