The President of the 7 Summits Club Alex Abramov reports from the Elbrus region:

The Super Girls team of 9 people successfully climbed to the top of Elbrus. The ascent took place in bad weather conditions. We were lashed by wind and snowstorms, but we endured! All the girls proved themselves to be heroes. Each received maximum emotions and a charge for the future life. We felt stronger and more confident. Well done everyone!

Including guides: Alex Abramov, Denis Abramov, Natalia Kartashova and Ilya Gladkikh.

Five groups of the 7 Summits Club set off tonight with the goal of climbing Elbrus. However, during the ascent, the bad weather suddenly got worse. A strong thunderstorm began. Under these conditions, the Ministry of Emergency Situations workers issued an order to stop climbing and return to the shelter. In principle, no one objected much. Everyone understood that it was the right decision. So our teams got an extra day off. Let's hope that nature will be kinder to us next night.

President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov:

Today, the SuperGirls team on Elbrus experienced a difficult night. But in the end, everything ended well. All the participants rested, slept, played. And this night we are planning to storm Elbrus again. The weather forecast is rather bad. But we will look for windows...

The President of the 7 Summits Club company, Alexander Abramov, reports from the Elbrus region:

Today, the SuperGirls team went up on a cable car, then on a snowcat to the Refuge National Park, an altitude of 3900 meters. All the girls were simply amazed by the living conditions. Complete comfort! The main activity today was rest, but we still managed to conduct classes on passing the fixed ropes. The weather is clear, but there is a strong wind. So we will fight tonight. The departure for the ascent is scheduled for 3 am.

The president of the 7 Summits Club company, Alexander Abramov, reports from the Elbrus region:

This morning, the Super Girls project team received full equipment at the rental and immediately rushed up. We walked briskly up the Refuge of 11 area. With the help of our guides, the group members figured out the equipment and mastered the technique of walking on snow and firn slopes. The weather was good, but we hurried down to the Azau Star hotel for lunch. The whole team is in a great mood. We are singing and dancing.

Tomorrow, rotation to the Pastukhov Rocks.

Guides Alexander Abramov, Denis Abramov and Natalia Marinkevich are working with the group.

The president of the 7 Summits Club company, Alex Abramov, reports from the Elbrus region:

Today was a great day! The SuperGirls team took an interesting route: we climbed the trail up the slope of Mount Cheget to the Ai cafe. We rested there and then went down to Lake Donguz Orun. Many of the girls in the group were in the mountains for the first time. So, it was very interesting for everyone. Tomorrow we have training "snow classes" on the slope of Elbrus.

President of the 7 Summits Club company Alex Abramov reports from the Elbrus region:

Today our new, third program of the Super Girls project has begun. This time we are on Elbrus! We met the girls at the Mineralnye Vody airport with flowers. We arrived in an excellent minibus to Prielbrusye and checked into the best hotel in the area - Azau Star. In the remaining time we managed to take a walk to the Azau waterfall. Tomorrow we plan to hike along the slopes of Mount Cheget and visit Lake Donguz-Orun.

The group is being guided by Alex Abramov, Denis Abramov and Natalia Marinkevich.

Damavand (5609 m). Super Girls project. Seven Volcanoes project.

Hello everyone! Our new series of the charming Super Girls Damavand project has begun. We have all been waiting for this! Yesterday the Supergirls team arrived in Iran and was amazed at what a beautiful and historical country it is. Wonderful people. We visited the palace of King Golestan, got acquainted with the culture of ancient Persia. In the evening we had a traditional dinner on the TV tower with a panoramic view of Tehran.

Today is our first ascent. We are climbing to the top of Mount Tuchal.

The atmosphere in the city is normal, calm. Everyone is walking and laughing.

Your guide Alex Abramov, President of the 7 Summits Club.

The project will be called "Seven Volcanoes in Seven Months." Alex Abramov will lead two Super Girls groups to Damavand and Elbrus in August. According to the plan, the ascent of Damavand should take place on August 13. From that day, the countdown for the record will begin. It is considered "from summit to summit." In October, Giluwe is planned, in November, Orizaba and Kilimanjaro. In December, an expedition to the Antarctic volcano Sidley. And in February, Alexander should complete the project by climbing Ojos del Salado. To break the speed record (183 days, 20 hours and 54 minutes), he needs to climb the Chilean volcano before February 12. Which is not entirely easy, if our President intends to finish the Antarctic season only on January 22. That was in his plans.

Alexander Abramov can be safely called the "godfather" of the Seven Volcanoes program. It was the president of the 7 Summits Club who conceived, and our company carried out, the historic expedition of 2011 to Mount Sidley. Since the scientific discovery of this highest volcano in Antarctica, no one had been there. As a result of the 2011 ascent, the first people to climb all seven volcanoes appeared. These were the participants of our expedition Mario Trimeri and Crina Popescu. And this was the real start of the Seven Volcanoes program. Russia, represented by our company, is the world leader in the number of climbers who have climbed all seven volcanoes of the project. At the moment, out of 46 who have completed the project, 14 represent our country. There is something to be proud of!
