The 7 Summits Club Guide Olya Rumyantseva reports from Elbrus region:

 Hello to everyone from the slopes of Elbrus, where today our Climbuli group made an acclimatization climb towards Pastukhov Rocks.

Unfortunately, due to the bad weather that broke out, we did not reach the rocks, but we had a great walk to a height of almost 4400 meters. We walked in the rain, under ice pellets, and when lightning began to flash, we decided that we had enough adventures for today.

After that, we quickly went down to the cable car. While we were changing from one line of the cable car to another, we got caught in such a downpour that we got soaked through and decided that today we were not Climbuli, but Wetbuli.

At the hotel, we warmed up, dried off, rested and tomorrow we plan to climb to the refuge to go on an ascent.
