Damavand, all programs »
President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov from Iran:
Today we climbed Damavand - 5609m!!! On October 31 at 12:00 Iranian time, Ilya Gladkikh and I climbed the highest volcano in Asia. This is the second mountain from the "7 Volcanoes in 77 Days" project. The weather was not good at all, the climb was out of season. The wind was up to 60 km per hour. The temperature at the summit was minus 25. And there was already snow. I had three warm pants on. I have never put on so many! It was really hard to walk. But we managed.
Now we are urgently heading to Kilimanjaro!
Two volcanoes in 8 days - let's move on!
