President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov reports from Chile:

So three days of the restaurant-excursion and packaging-gathering life of our team in the glorious and beloved city of Punta Arenas are coming to an end.  It is the southernmost city in South America. Everything is collected, PCR tests are passed, boarding passes are received.

Our team of 8 participants from 5 countries (India, Bulgaria, Kyrgyzstan, Belarus and Russia) is ready to fly to Antarctica on the Vinson Massif. Also, two participants are flying with us, whose goal is the South Pole. Tomorrow the flight is scheduled for 8 am. According to the forecast, the weather is windy. The guides of the 7 Summits Club are Alexander Abramov and Artem Rostovtsev.

President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov reports from Chile:

The season of expeditions of the 7 Summits Club in Antarctica begins. Guides Alexander Abramov and Artem Rostovtsev flew to the best city in South America, Punta Arenas. Lena Abramova was already waiting for us here. On the plane, quite by chance, we were sitting next to the owner of Adventure Consultants Guy Cotter. We have already met him many times in Antarctica and on Everest.

Now work is underway: to check and pack equipment, purchase products. Everything needs to be scrupulously checked and packed. After all, there are no shops in Antarctica, and if we forget something, no one will help us.

The day after tomorrow, December 4th, the first our team flies in. In it we have 8 participants on the Mount Vinson and 2 participants for ski trip to the South Pole. The season of Antarctica begins!  In the season there will be a second group to the highest peak of Antarctica - Vinson Massif, also 8 people, and two more participants will go to the highest volcano of Antarctica – Mount Sidley.

Guides Abramov Alexander and Artem Rostovtsev. And our permanent manager of Antarctica Lena Abramova.

On November 26, the regular, annual Gala Evening of summing up the results of the year of the Russian Mountaineering Federation took place. In its preparation and conduct, the 7 Summits Club was a key organization. For many years of holding such events, the Illusion cinema seemed to be the most suitable, the most cozy and hospitable place. The only, but important minus – there were not enough seats. And for the rest, it turned out to be a very sincere and festive meeting of friends, veterans and youth, masters and beginners, athletes and amateurs. I think all the participants received a good charge of energy, and returned home with renewed vigor, with new plans and hopes. But with more optimism. Thanks to the federation, thank you to us, the 7 Summits Club.

An important part of the program was honoring climbers of Mount Everest in 2022. The 7 Summits Club has established a special award - the order, which is awarded to climbers who have climbed the highest peak in the World for the first time. At this evening, 12 people received it. The President of the 7 Summits Club, Alexander Abramov, also presented several climbers with another award, which he also invented himself. This is the order of the "Climber to the Seven Summits". At this gala evening, it was received by several climbers who could not attend the first presentation of this award in June this year.

New Everest summiters

They completed "The Seven Summits" programme 

The group's guide, the President of the 7 Summits Club, Alexander Abramov reports from Mexico:

At 9:15 a.m. our team ascended the peak of Orizaba, the highest volcano in North America.

The guide of the group, the President of the 7 Summits Club, Alexander Abramov reports from Mexico: 

The video and photos show how the team is preparing to go to the assault camp of Orizaba. Camps, food.  The participants and guides are all in a great mood.  The team leaves the Base Camp.  The weather is not the worst.

The guide of the group, the President of the 7 Summits Club, Alexander Abramov reports from Mexico: 

The group of the 7 Summits Club moved to the base camp Orizaba.  Before leaving, we took a photo with our guides Julio and Katrina. On the way, we waited for our mountain to open. At first it was in the cloud. But then, we were lucky and Orizaba opened.  People often die on this mountain.  Steep ice slopes without gentle slopes. And at the bottom there is a stone scree.  There are years when there is clear ice on the route. But we are lucky. There is little ice on the mountain now. Mostly snow and firn.

The guide of the group, the President of the 7 Summits Club, Alexander Abramov reports from Mexico: 

News of the Quinteto Mexicano team from Mexico. Leaving the city of Pueblo early in the morning, we made an acclimatization ascent on the famous peak of La Malincha. The flag of the 7 Summits Club was raised at the highest point.  From the summit of the mountain there was a view of all the five thousand meters of Mexico: Istaxihuatl, Popacatapetl and the object of our ascent, the highest volcano in North America Pico Orizaba.

President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov reports from Mexico:  Today the team enjoyed the atmosphere of the Day of the Dead in Mexico City.  We visited the pyramids, then the Trotsky House Museum. Everything is very interesting. Then we visited the Frida Kahlo Museum. We ate grasshoppers and ant eggs. The day was a success!

The guide of the expedition of the 7 Summits Club to Orizaba, the highest volcano in North America, Alexander Abramov.

Alexander Abramov: In March 2023, the 7 Summits Club and our new project  8000.guide plans an international women's team expedition on the first conquered eight-thousand-meter Annapurna and shoot the film ""High-Altitude Gene -2".  The dates are March 20 - April 20, 2023.

I would like to invite women with experience of climbing 8000 meters to take part in this unique expedition. This expedition is funded by the participants themselves. The film is shot at the expense of sponsors.

 About this unique female expedition RD Studio and Valdis Pelsh are going to make a film "High-Altitude Gene -2".  We will shoot the whole expedition with professional equipment by professional operators, guides and participants. Like the first sensational TV series "High-Altitude Gene -1", we will shoot this film in the format of a Reality Show. Alexander Abramov will lead the expedition.

 The core staff of the team is already there. I invite new participants!

To prepare for the expedition on Annapurna, I invite the girls to take part in a training trip to the highest volcano in the World - Mount Ojos Del Salado in Chile. To get acquainted and see who is how prepared. After the training ascent, the final composition of the Annpurna team will be formed.

 The 7 Summits Club together with the project 8000.Guide opens booking for expeditions to all 14 eight-thousandths of the world! In the spring of 2023, we plan to climb three of the fourteen highest Summits.  "Annapurna is the first eight–thousandth."  And it will be the first in our project.  On the basis of many years of practice, expeditions began to climb Annapurna at the very beginning of the spring season. It's more cool, but the avalanche danger is significantly reduced. And in the same season, you can have time to recover and go to other eight-thousandth. Including Everest.

Climbing Annapurna (8091m)
March 25 - April 28, $29,150, Alexander Abramov.

Here we go! Join us!

 The project "14 eight-thousanders" - now it's real! The increased level of training of our Sherpa friends, the improvement of equipment, the use of helicopters and other innovations in logistics. Eight-thousandths have become more accessible. Not tfor everyone, of course, but only to those who want, believe and know how to endure, and everything is real...

Alexander Abramov directly from the top of Khosar Ganges: Having overcome bad weather and deep snow, the group of the 7 Summits Club climbed to the highest point. It happened exactly at 12 o'clock local time. We wish them a successful descent!

 Alexander Abramov, President of the 7 Summits Club, reports from Pakistan:

Today, the team "Five on a Perch" climbed to Camp-2 (5300m) on the crest of the Khosar Gang Mountain. The weather contributed, although the condition of the route leaves much to be desired. Yesterday, an avalanche descended right on the climbing route.  And according to information from our porters, a lot of fixed ropes are now buried under the snow. There is also a very strong wind at the summit. So we decided to postpone the assault for a day. Meanwhile, several Pakistani guides will check fixed ropes. Tonight, with favorable weather, we plan to storm the summit. Now the peak is covered with clouds. It snowed last night.

Alexander Abramov, President of the 7 Summits Club, reports from Pakistan:

Today our team moved to the first high-altitude camp of the Khosar Gang Mountain, at an altitude of 4850 meters.  We climbed the rocks here at a pretty good pace. There were 10 porters with us. It looked like these guys were carrying more than their own weight. The camp is located on the ridge. There's nowhere to hide. It is necessary to leave the tents carefully, because there are cliffs on both sides.  The weather is great!

Tomorrow there will be an even more difficult climb to the Camp 2.

The 7 Summits Club starts accepting applications for participation in the 2023 Everest expedition!  Alexander Abramov, the permanent leader of all Everest expeditions, plans to lead our next ascent to the highest peak in the World.  Our twenty years of experience, our twenty years of efforts to improve service, to ensure safety – everything is at your service. To all those who are ready for this, we invite you to familiarize yourself with our program, with our additional materials and make the right decision.  We advise you not to postpone your attempt to climb to the highest peak in the World, you understand why.

Everest Climb (8848m) South Side, Nepal.

(Full guides and high sherpa service)

Alexander Abramov, President of the 7 Summits Club, reports from Pakistan:

Today our team "Thumbelina and 4 Toads" is back in touch from Pakistan.  Now we plan to climb the Khoser Gang mountain 6200m. Before the mountain, as usual, we stopped at the Garden of Eden to taste paradise apples. And life-giving juice from cherries and apricots. The mixture has entered.

As a result, half the roads alternately disappeared behind the ridge. We reached at last the Base camp. No bacon was served to us. Pakistan however. But the dinner was a success. There were quails, rabbit fillet marinated in white wine and rice with mushroom sauce and foie gras.  Soon we are going to sleep in our spacious insulated tents. Tomorrow morning - team forward!

 President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov reports from Pakistan: The team "Welcome to Pakistan" from Pakistan. It is the best country. This morning, waking up in tents on the Diosai plateau, our team, tired after successfully climbing to the Highest point of Mount Shatun 5400m, was surprised to find tents littered with snow. Quickly plunging into the jeeps, we rushed down to the district center of Skardu - in the heat.

 A short road led us to paradise. We went to the Cold Desert, a unique place where the World Rally Cup takes place. These are sand dunes on which you can drive on all types of equipment. Beauty!!! In the evening we said goodbye to half of the team that finishes the trip. The second part of the team starts a new ascent of the technically difficult summit Hosar Ganga (6200m) tomorrow. There may not be a connection for 4 days.

Alexander Abramov, President of the 7 Summits Club, reports from Pakistan:

The team is at the top of Mount Shantung. Details will be available later. It's snowing now.  Thunderstorm. After leaving the Base Camp at 4200 at 5 am, at 11:30 we climbed to the summit of Shantung. This is the highest peak of the Dilsai Plateau.

The President of the 7 Summits Club, Alexander Abramov from Pakistan:

 Leaving the town of Chilas early in the morning, we reached the settlement of Tato in 4 hours by jeep on a crazy road.  This is where our trekking, probably the most beautiful in my life, began. We were walking through a pine forest surrounded by rocky mountains and mountain streams.   And by nightfall we reached the world-famous Fairy Meadow place - fantastic meadows. Here we settled in nice wooden houses.

President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov reports from Pakistan:

Today, September 25, is officially the first day of the expedition of the 7 Summits Club and company 8000.guide to Pakistan.  The team led by Alexander Abramov, who was named "Maria Ivanovna", had a great day in Islamabad today.

All arrived, all things flew. Checked the equipment - found the missing. We visited the largest mosque in Southeast Asia, visited the monument to those who died for the freedom of Pakistan, went to the bazaar and finished the day at the Kabul restaurant with delicious kebabs.Alexander Kharchenkov also had a birthday today. Which we cheerfully celebrated on the roof of our hotel. The team gave him a gift. Everyone had a lot of fun. Tomorrow we leave in the direction of Nanga Parbat.  Adventures and dangers begin. Hurray!

 Addition: By tradition in Pakistan, all people are very friendly and polite, many happily ask to take a selfie with strangers. Therefore, our movement around the city was slow, but solemn. Everyone was very satisfied with a wonderful day.
