Everest, all programs »
The leader of the Everest-25 expedition, President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov from the slopes of Everest:
On May 19, our first team in full force climbed to the summit of Everest. On the 19th, the second team climbed to the South Col in a strong wind. By evening, the wind had increased to 70 km/h. Having spent the night in jumping tents and the morning in tents with a torn vestibule, we decided to descend. Thus, we postponed the attempt to climb Everest to May 25 or 26.
Now the team has descended to the second camp at 6500. And with the words "it was a good training session", we went to bed. In total, this year the 7 Summits Club has 12 permits for climbing, four of which have been realized.
