Hi 7 Summits! Again – it is Antarctica, the far south, the Vinson Massif. Today at High Camp, the weather is bad again. Strong wind. Moreover, the forecast is not very favorable in the coming days. It was possible for us to stay in High Camp, but the deterioration of the forecast drove us down. We were slightly affected by the wind on the descent, but now we all happily celebrate our success at the Vinson's base camp. You can congratulate us!

Hi 7 Summits! Welcome to Antarctica, Mount Vinson High Camp. Now we have such a wind, bad weather. Everyone is sitting on tents, hiding. I don’t even know what people will do? How to go to the summit? For some reason, this morning, looking at the forecast that it is getting worse, we decided to climb. And climbed! The only team! Yes! And now everyone envies us! It’s true, it’s not clear how much time we will spend in the High Camp with such bad weather. But the sun is shining and we hope that we will come down soon. Artyom Rostovtsev, Antarctica, High Camp.

7 Summits, hello! This is Dmitry Ermakov from the summit of Kilimanjaro. Today, Fedor Konyukhov’s group climbed to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro, on Uhuru peak. One member got sick, and Anna and Alexander were able to reach only Stella Point. But, in principle, in such conditions as the weather was, it is a victory. Everything is fine with us, we are going down.
Almost all night the wind was so strong that it knocked down. Including even at the top there were strong gusts of wind. In fact, for all my years of being here on Kilimanjaro, I was for the first time at the top in such weather. But, thank God, everything is fine and everything worked out!

Dmitry Ermakov, guide of the 7 Summits Club from Tanzania:
Fedor Konyukhov’s group moved today from Baranko’s camp to Karanga’s camp. We overcame Baranco Wall. According to our tactics, we were the last to leave the camp today, so as not to stand in line in the wall. And actually, our tactics were absolutely correct, since we were the only ones on the wall, we did not stand in lines. The weather today was foggy almost all day. Visibility is not very good, but not hot and cold, no rain. Happy New Year to all of you!
We are fine, we are resting now, soon we will have dinner. Tomorrow we are moving on to the assault camp. From there we will ascend Kilimanjaro.
