 Greetings from the Elbrus region from the "South Africa" group! Today we began our acclimatization on the slopes of Mount Cheget. Summer has come - it has become very warm, even hot. Perfect weather, beautiful views, beautiful flowers around. We can say that summer has finally come to the mountains. In the evening we are preparing to go to the high-mountain zone. We are working according to plan.

 Greetings from the Elbrus region from the "Wet Karabiny" group! Our team completed its program with a successful ascent to the top of Elbrus. We managed to get there in good weather. It started snowing on the descent, it was already "fun", but not for us. One of our participants climbed two peaks, independently, under his own power.

The 7 Summits Club guide Alexander Dorojukov sends from Elbrus:

 Greetings from Elbrus from the "Wet Karabines" group! Today we walked to Pastukhov Rocks and thus completed the acclimatization ascents. It was clear, but there was a cold wind. The forecast for the following days promises snow, but the main thing for us is no thunderstorm. Tomorrow is a day of rest and then an assault on the summit. Wish us luck!

 Greetings from the group "Wet Carabines"! Today we climbed to our comfortable refuge National Park, checked into the trailers. After that we went for a walk to the height of 4100, to the area of the Refuge of Eleven. There on the snowy slope we conducted training in mountaineering techniques. We worked with an ice axe, walked along fixed ropes, clicked carabines from rope to rope. We returned, had lunch and are resting before tomorrow's rotation to Pastukhov Rocks.

 Greetings from Elbrus region from the "Wet Carabines" group! Our group began to actively acclimatize on the slopes of Mount Cheget. It got colder in the mountains again, the views were covered with clouds, and there was a light rain. The weather has been unstable this season. And a month of summer has already passed, but there is no warmth. We hope that on the day of the ascent we will be lucky with the weather.

 The "Brigada" group sends greetings from the Elbrus region! Today we tried to walk to the Refuge of Eleven, but the thunderstorm drove us out of there. It nipped a little, we pressed our ears back like spaniels and went down to the shelter. When the thunderstorm ended, we went out onto the slope and held snow and ice classes after all. We rode on our butts, waved ice axes - it was fun.
