Three groups of the 7 Summits Club were successfully acclimatized and after a rest ready for the summit attempt of Elbrus. But nature has made its changes to our plans, in the form of a cyclone from the Atlantic. For a few days on Elbrus settled bad weather: hurricane wind, snow and thunderstorms - the source of our today's retreat.
