Valery Myasoedov, the Guide of the 7 Summits Club, reports from Sochi:

 Greetings from Sirius! The 7 Summits Club group, the Croods Family, has completed a three-day adventure program in Sochi region. On the third day, we were engaged in canyoning, which is the process of going through canyons along the riverbeds of mountain rivers, overcoming water obstacles and rocky areas. This is one of the most popular and most dynamic types of active recreation. We were convinced of this ourselves on the route; you should have seen the enthusiastic emotions of our young participants, Varya and Sasha. We returned to some sections, such as jumping into the water from rock springboards, several times. All members of the Croods Family (Oksana, Andrey, Varya and Sasha) were very pleased with the organization of safety and the program as a whole. A great family vacations! We thank our partners "Adventure Workshop" for this! And we hope to continue our cooperation.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Viktor Volodin sends from the Elbrus region:

Greetings to everyone from our new group (without a name yet) from the Elbrus region! Yesterday the entire group arrived at the Mineralnye Vody airport. Then transfer to the Elbrus region and accommodation in a very comfortable and cozy hotel. Today the weather is not pampering. It rained all night, but we decided to take a walk and went to the Maiden Braids waterfall for acclimatization. The participants are feeling great. After lunch the weather returned to normal. We are preparing to continue the program.

Valery Myasoedov, a Guide of the 7 Summits Club, reports from Sochi:

 Greetings from Krasnaya Polyana! The Croods Family group spent the second day of their program in the Vorontsov Caves, a fantastic area of the Krasnodar Region, unique in its beauty and splendor. Karst caves created by nature millions of years ago attract thousands of tourists. And there is much to be surprised and amazed at. First, we went on an excursion to one of the equipped caves, listened to the theoretical part, learned to distinguish statactites from stalagmites. And then we went through one of the most picturesque speleological routes with technical elements of rock climbing. Our young participants Varya and Sasha were at their best here too. Words are superfluous here, look at the photos, it is hard to believe that we saw it with our own eyes.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Olya Rumyantseva reports from Tibet:

 Greetings to everyone from Tibet from the enlightened team! Today we had a very spectacular and scenic day. We woke up early in the morning and went to the airport, meeting the sunrise on the way and watching the first rays of the sun color Kailash.

The short one-and-a-half-hour flight to Lhasa was memorable for the views of the Himalayan range. It was especially nice to see Everest.

Today was a very important day for Buddhists in Tibet - the day of Buddha's enlightenment. Therefore, in Lhasa, around the Jokhang Temple, there were an incredible number of people doing kora and prostrations.

That's how much we saw! Tomorrow we have a day of rest before flying home, but we will probably come up with something interesting for this day.

Stop by, share your story, and let us congratulate you on your Denali success!

News from Papua New Guinea. Today the "Descendants of Miklouho-Maclay" team in full force climbed to the top of the Giluwe volcano 4368m. We agreed with the weather, so the clouds passed us by, and we admired the views to our heart's content. We descended calmly, and the rain covered us only on the last, forested section of the descent to the road. At sunset, we tidied ourselves up in the lodge and exchanged impressions. Tomorrow is another final excursion day. And in the evening we celebrate: we hold an award ceremony for climbers of the highest volcano in Australia and Oceania.
