The 7 Summits Club super guide Valery Myasoedov reports from Iran:
Greetings from Iran! The "Oktyabryata" group ascended to Camp 3, also known as the assault camp, at 4,200 meters today. The weather was favorable—it was cool and windless, and we climbed at a good pace. The peak season on the mountain is almost over; there are only a few other people in camp, although the weather conditions so far appear quite suitable for a summit attempt. It was great to see our old friends—the jeep drivers and muleteers—who are always happy to help us, despite the low season. Special thanks to our Iranian girls—guide Parisa and cook Narges—for the photo shoot! They certainly added a special touch to this news.
