Abramov Alex

A completely new idea from Alexander Abramov! Not just to go through the most important world trekking to the foot of Mount Everest, but also to feel like a full-fledged participant in a climbing expedition. Not just to spend the nights at the base camp, but also to climb along with other mountaineers the famous Khumbu icefall. By the way, the transfer of the route to the right side of the icefall made it much safer. However, impressions and adrenaline there will be enough for the most demanding participant!

Alex Abramov, from Georgia: There is the summit of Kazbek!   The team of the 7 Summits Club "Pink skis" climbed to the highest point consisting of 8 participants and 5 guides. After leaving the refuge at 4: 00 am, the climbers of our team reached the top in 6.5 hours.   The ascent took place in conditions of strong winds of 50-60 km per hour, and in conditions of periodically poor visibility. At the top, the wind died down and nature opened up gorgeous views.

Our skier also made a descent from the slopes of Kazbek, on a heavy, icy slope.

Now hot Batumi is waiting for us!!!

Alex Abramov, from Georgia:

Today our group "Pink Skis" was finishing acclimatization and arranged snow and ice training on the slopes of Kazbek. We climbed 300 meters up to the chapel and then had fun walking on crampons, in rope teams and learning how to use ice axes. Tomorrow, early in the morning, we leave for the ascent. Now the wind is very strong - 50 km per hour, with gusts up to 70. But, thank God, the snow stopped falling yesterday. We hope for the best.

Alex Abramov from Georgia:  News from the team "Pink skis" - Kazbek 21.  The sun was shining this morning and it was warm as in paradise. We moved from the Alti Hut refuge to the 3765 m  Meteostation. The route passes through a moraine and a glacier. We were overtaken by horses and people carrying loads. As soon as we arrived at the Meteotation, a hurricane started and snow fell.  But we live well at the shelter. There is a great restaurant here.  Tomorrow – a new acclimatization climbing rotation.

Thank you to the Ukrainian team who left us handmade chocolates!

The weather is very windy. Yesterday and today, more than 10 teams were unable to climb the summit of Mount Kazbek.

Alex Abramov, President of the 7 Summits Club:  The team "Pink skis" went on the climbing route to Kazbek. One participant was going to ski down from the top. He is a master of alpine skiing and a participant of the 2014 Olympics. Unfortunately, the horses refused to carry the skis. So everything has to be done the old-fashioned way. Now we spend a night at an altitude of 3200 in a super-comfortable refuge. Tomorrow, twe climb to the refuge Meteostation.  All the participants are healthy and cheerful, our team is super!

Alex Abramov, President of the 7 Summits Club and the guide of the group: Today our team "Kazbek 2021" arrived in Georgia. We saw Tbilisi, Mtskheta and came to the mountains. Now we live in the Rooms 5* hotel, the best in the area. Awesome view of Kazbek! Tomorrow our team goes on the route. I am very pleased with the hospitality of our Georgian friends.

Alex Abramov from Turkey: News from Ararat. The whole team is on top! All 22 people: 19 participants and 3 guides of the 7 Summits Club. Having launched an assault by three teams at 1: 00, 2: 00, and 3: 00, all three groups simultaneously reached the top of Ararat. Russian record: a 12-year-old boy is on the top! This is Kirill Tergalinsky. It was the team of Oskar Konyukhov.

Guides: Sergey Avtomonov, Denis Abramov and Alex Abramov.

The director of the representative office of the 7 Summits Club in Nepal, a multiple summiter of Mount Everest, Mingma Gelu, received certificates from the Ministry of Tourism of Nepal documenting the fact of the ascent of the climbers of the 7 Summits Club on the highest peak in the World.  Accordingly, he immediately sent it to us in electronic form and sent the originals by mail. So the climbers will receive the document twice, there will be two reasons to remember the glorious events of this spring. When they overcame doubts, fears, anxieties, ailments, fatigue, cold and the dangers of an icefall, they survived and reached the top of Mount Everest. Let's envy them!

 Those who want to receive such certificates for climbing in 2022 should already declare their intentions. The composition of the expedition is already being formed. See the program for next year. The Everest-22 expedition is already beginning. As always, it is headed by Alexander Abramov. The worldfirst in the category of leaders of expeditions to Mount Everest. He has both the largest number of expedition leadership and the largest number of personal ascents on the top among the expedition leaders.

Weather for today: strong wind and clear. The guides are Alexander Abramov, Sergey Avtomonov and Anastasia Kuznetsova.

Alexander Abramov from Turkey: Greetings from Ararat! Today there  was a busy day. We left the hotel early in the morning to meet Ararat. On the way, we took our time and swam in Lake Van. In Dogubayazit, we changed the transport and went to the starting point. The trail is heavily eroded by the rains and now the route starts a little lower than before, right from the village. We gained a vertical kilometer during the day and came to the Base Camp at an altitude of 3200 m. In the evening, a cultural program was presented in the form of Kurdish folk songs and dancesю  And, of course, preparations were underway for tomorrow. Tomorrow is the day of acclimatization.

News from the team of Alex Abramov from Lenin Peak. On July 19, the entire team, 12 participants and 5 guides, climbed to the top of Razdelnaya 6134m. During the ascent, on a steep slope, the guide of our team, Boris Dedeshko, the owner of the Golden Ice Axe and one of the strongest climbers of Kazakhstan, saved the life of a climber from the team climbing parallel with us.

When Boris's team traversed a steep snow-ice slope at the exit to 5600m, an uncontrolled fall began from the top of the slope by a climber from a neighboring team. The slide could continue for another 200 m with a flight to a rocky area. Boris, in a jump, risking his life, stopped the fall and fixed the climber on the slope. Thank him for this act!

After spending two nights at an altitude of 5300 in order to acclimatize, our entire team yesterday, July 20, went down to rest in Camp-1 at 4400m. The weather at Lenin Peak is consistently bad. Since the beginning of the season, only 3 people have reached the top.

Alexander Abramov, President of the 7 Summits Club, from the slopes of Lenin Peak: Our entire team, 12 participants and 5 guides, climbed to the top of Razdelnaya Peak 6124 meters. We reached it at 5 p.m. local time. Now we are starting the descent. In 5 days, we plan to begin the assault on Lenin Peak, with a height of 7134 meters.

Our super-tent in Camp 2 on Lenin Peak.

The 7 Summits Club guide Nikita Slotin from Kyrgyzstan: Today was a warm sunny day. After breakfast, we went to the beginning of the route for ice classes. We checked our equipment, remembered how to walk in crampons on slopes of different steepness, how to use jumars and abseil devices, worked out the movement on the glacier. All participants feel well. The group is preparing to go to Camp-2 at an altitude of 5300 tomorrow. Guides of the group are Alexander Abramov and Nikita Slotin. The second group with the guide Vladimir Kotlyar climbed the Yukhin Peak for acclimatization on this day…

Nikita Slotin, guide of the 7 Summits Club from Pamir:  Hello to all from the first camp from a height of 4400, from the group "Hello, Muntain Fever"! We have had a slight change of plans. Today we went for a walk in the direction of Yukhin peak to the height of 4700, divided into mini-groups, in which we will later work on the mountain. The members begin to feel the height and actively undergo acclimatization! The weather is good, the sun is shining, but there is still a strong wind at Lenin Peak, which does not allow to look at the peak in all its glory.  Tomorrow we are going to the glacier, walking in crampons and practicing movement along a glacier. Guides of the group are Alexander Abramov and Nikita Slotin.

The second group of the 7 Summits Club with the guide Vladimir Kotlyar also stay in the camp 1.  They trained today on the glacier.

Nikita Slotin, guide of the 7 Summits Club:  Two groups of the 7 Summits Club left the base camp today and went up to Camp 1. We loaded our belongings on horses and confidently moved towards the Travelers ' Pass. When we climbed the pass, we sent messages to our dear and beloved ones, because further communication may be unstable. We had a delicious snack, arranged a photo hunt for marmots and moved on! The picturesque trail, the huge scale of moraines and glaciers amaze the imagination. And with all this beauty, we did not even notice how we got to the camp, where we were already met by Volodya Kotlyar's group. And, of course, we appreciated the scale of the mountain!

 All participants feel well. Tomorrow, according to the plan, there will be a day of rest and preparation for going to the Second camp.

Guides Alexander Abramov and Nikita Slotin.

The 7 Summits Club guide Nikita Slotin from Kyrgyzstan:

 Hello to all from the Pamir from the group "Hi Mountain Fever"! Today we made an acclimatization rotation exit to the height of 4000 meters on the crest of Petrovsky peak. We admired the views of valleys, lakes and snow-white peaks, the weather was favorable for us! Everyone is in a fighting mood and ready to move on. Tomorrow we go to the First camp! In the meantime, we are listening to the songs of one of our participants, Peter, about the mountains! And, of course, the stories of our leader Alexander Abramov about climbing Mount Everest!

Two groups of the 7 Summits Club arrived by bus from the city of Osh to the base camp under Lenin Peak. One group is led by guides Alex Abramov and Nikita Slotin. The other one will work under the leadership of Vladimir Kotlyar.

Guide Nikita Slotin: The camp met us with marmots, rain and rainbows, and, of course, magnificent views of the mountains! We spent several hours on the road and here we are, happy, contented, breathing the freshness of nature! And we also admire the Edelweiss!
