Message from Fyodor Konyukhov's group from Elbrus. Summit! Today at 7:30 am, the team of Fyodor Konyukhov with the guides of the 7 Summits Club successfully climbed the Western peak of Elbrus! The weather favored the team throughout the expedition and this morning, too, did not disappoint. It was not easy, but all the participants of the assault met the summit with tears of joy. After the descent, all the members of the group do not stop talking about where they want to go next. "With such a team, at least to all Seven Summits!". Fyodor Filippovich Konyukhov and his family brought together strong and interesting people who do not want to stop there. We look forward to the next expedition of Fyodor Konyukhov!

Great news from Kazbek! All members of the 7 Summits Club group reached the top of Mount Kazbek! The condition of the climbers is good, today they plan to descend to the intermediate camp at an altitude of 3500 m. Tomorrow - to Vladikavkaz and home.

25 июля 2020 года в составе большой группы Клуба 7 вершин юная художница Юлия Демина совершила восхождение на вершину Эльбуса по программе «Блиц». Горная тема - одна из ведущих в ее творчестве, что неудивительно, ведь она опытная спортсменка, чемпионка России по горному туризму. Свежие виды на горы Кавказа вдохновили ее на новый цикл работ. Некоторые из них она сделала прямо у убежища перед штурмом вершины. Юлия отдала их своим товарищам по скалолазанию. А теперь она приготовила подарок убежищу «Национальный парк».

Artem Rostovtsev,  the 7 Summit Club guide:

The 7 Summits Club group successfully used the half-day weather window on Mount Belukha yesterday. To make it in time, we decided to start to the summit (4509 m) not from the assault camp, but from the Tomsky camps (3000 m). The plan was the only right one. We have successfully climbed and have already successfully descended.

 The group of the 7 Summits Club "Naughty squirrel and the brotherhood of the ice pick" today climbed the refuge National Park. In connection with the planned power outage, we went up in the early morning, first on the cable car, then on the Ural truck. We settled in, had lunch, and went to snow and ice classes in the afternoon. It was a great workout. Now we are preparing for tomorrow's ascent on the Pastukhov Rocks. Group guide Andrey Berezin.

Andrey Berezin, a guide of the 7 Summits Club from Elbrus region:

A new group called "Naughty squirrel and the brotherhood of the ice axe" has arrived in the Elbrus region. Today we made an acclimatization trip to the Cheget slope. We started our journey in the rain, but it was getting better by the afternoon. And then we continued to climb under the sun. Tomorrow, according to the plan, we will move to the National Park shelter. Follow our news!

 Oleg Savchenko is an absolutely wonderful person, one of the most important people in the Volgograd region. He is a highly successful businessman and established politician, who worked three terms in the State Duma of the Russian Federation, a Deputy of the regional Duma. In his youth, Oleg was a handball player, an international-class athlete, and became interested in mountaineering only after he turned 50 years old. With the 7 Summits Club  Savchenko made ascents to Everest, where he performed his unique project. With the help of Sherpas, a unique operation was carried out to bury the body of Slovenian Marko Lihteneker, who died in 2005 near the summit.

And also with us Savchenko climbed other peaks of the "seven": Vinson, Aconcagua and Carstensz. And so he finished everything on July 25, 2020 in native Elbrus.

Congratulations to Oleg! We wish you new summits, new achievements, good health and luck!
