Good evening! This is a guide of the 7 Summits Club Ekaterina Korovina. Today I with a group from Brazil rose by the slopes of Elbrus and settled on the refuge LeapRus. After that we made acclimatization to the top of the Pastukhov Rocks. The weather was like specifically for training. It showed everyone how to dress, how to cover his face, why do we need the ski mask. In general, I'm satisfied with a group, all members went very smoothly. Tomorrow we have a day of rest, and I plan another small workout. Bye!

Good evening, good evening! Here Vladimir Kotlyar .... We are now in a pine grove, resting, breathing the air. Yesterday we fought, fought for life and death with the mountain, with the weather. The weather was tough ... But most of all we fought with themself .. We all have our own feelings and memories ... And we won! Five men under my leadership was at the top of the Eastern Peak of Elbrus. Some people were slightly below the top, literally 50 meters was not made.
The weather brought changes ...
Therefore, we are satisfied with everything, a little bit frozen went down. In principle, each with its own height. Now we already know what to prepare next time, have no illusion on account of the availability of Elbrus, etc., etc. ....

So today we have a rest, relax and celebrate ..

On the Eastern Peak yesterday

... In the terrible weather we have been able to climb to the top of Mount Kazbek! It looks like we're the only group who today went to the top.

The last hundred meters, we literally crawled on all fours. But did it! All my people are excited and, most importantly, alive!
Now, the whole group has already come down in Stepantsminda (Kazbegi) in our favorite hotel Rooms. And tomorrow – we are moving in the Elbrus region, and continuation of the banquet - climbing Elbrus. Follow the news on the website and FB!

Hello! There is Alex Abramov, from the meteostation, on Mount Kazbek. Today we have a very significant day. On the third day after the ascent to the meteostation, we finally decided to climb to the top. The fact that the weather was terrible, the wind blowing 40-60 kmph ....

We really enjoyed today's climb, because partly was made "on four bones." About 60-70 people came to the assault, but only our team and maybe 3 people have climbed to the top. The rest people turned of the road . But it proves once again that they are reasonable people and we are foolish. Our team is very happy, everyone is happy, that we were able in very bad conditions make such a cool climbing. Best regards from the team! Tomorrow we will go down and I could send pictures. I'll send a bunch of cool photos. But it will be all tomorrow. Bye!

We received short message from Iran. The second part of the tour for the group of the 7 Summit Club (after Mount Ararat) on Demavend ended successfully. All members climbed to the top. We will wait for details and pictures ..

Congratulations!

Family Gusakovsky (Vladimir, Tatiana and Margarita) - active participants of the 7 Summits Club programs, avid travelers, and well-known experts on Hibin and psychologists. Their trip to the "Far South" began on August 3. In the first half of the trip, they met all the best in a mountain mainland of Australia at Blue Mountain and Mount Uluru. August, 8th the group moved (flown by plane) in New Zealand. Now they are on the South Island of New Zealand, the journey will end on August 20.

Vladimir Gusakovsky: Today we moved to the South Island of New Zealand. A huge number of impressions, both natural and cultural plan, is leaving a feeling of unreality. It is the skyscrapers of Sydney, and the Australian desert orange mountains and unreal beauty of New Zealand landscapes and mystical Hobbiton, and bloodthirsty Maori dances. The route is not finished yet, and already we have experiences for few years ...

I enclose a few of the many photo:

Vladimir Kotlyar:

This is, Vladimir Kotlyar, I am calling from a height of 5200 meters above sea level. We go down the "inclined ledge". Just in one hour we reached the top of Mount Elbrus, West - 5642 meters ...

it was hard ... at low speed .... Adios!

Hi, Club of Seven Summits! It is Artem Rostovtsev. I'm calling you from a train heading to Zermatt. The other day I had two programs called "Blitz Mont Blanc." But, unfortunately, the Mont Blanc has not turned out even once. The fault is not ours. The fault of the weather, currently the French side of Mont Blanc is closed. Therefore, with the first group, we have replaced Mont Blanc on the "Mont Blanc sky race." With success. Everybody liked the thought that the mountain will wait. In the second group plans shifted to the Gran Paradiso. Yesterday we were at the Gran Paradiso. The program ended, everyone was happy. The main thing - alive. But Mont Blanc wait until next year! Artem Rostovtsev. Switzerland, Train ...

In early August, a large group of travelers from our club went to investigate the Kuril Islands under the leadership of a guide of the 7 Summits Club, an expert in the region - Olga Rumyantseva.

Olga Rumyantseva: We walked almost the entire Kurile chain. We landed on the island Paramushiro, Onekotan, Matua, Simushir, Ushishir, Urup and Iturup. We have to visit only Shikotan and Kunashir.
During this time we climbed the volcanoes on Krenitsina on Onekotane, Zavaritskii on Simushir, inspected the remains of the Japanese military facilities on Matua, bathed in the hot springs at Ushishir, Urup and Iturup. We looked at an abandoned submarine base on Simushir, observed whales, killer whales, sea lion rookeries, sea lions. And had a lot of fishing.

We congratulate our friends and comrades in climbing, the 7 Summits Club members! Khan-Tengri – it is the mountain, a dream of all climbers. A worthy goal, a difficult route. Michail and Vadim - real men, heroes!

Hello!

It says Oleg Koshkarev, a guide of the 7 Summits Club. Today I have great news. In the morning, with the group from Brazil, I climbed to the Western peak of the Mount Elbrus. And now we are descending down to Terskol, happy and tired.

All the best!

Hello friends!

This is a guide of the 7 Summits Club Vladimir Kotlyar, the program Climb Elbrus. Today, our climb is over. Successfully, we got the top, unfortunately, not by the full group. Three people in total, for one reason or another and at different heights, abandoned the climb. The five men from the group successfully visited the highest point of the North Caucasus, Russia and Europe. Today, we happily came down to Terskol! Where, indeed, we will celebrate our climb tomorrow.

All the best! Thanks to all! And to me it's time to relax ...

To credited ascent of Mount Abu Ibn Sina and get a certificate, you need to provide photos with a bust of Vladimir Lenin, which is on top of this mountain. This picture has been successfully done by a team of the Seven Summits Club on July 27 at 14:00 local time. At the top were: Valera, Dima, Maxim and I, Sergei. High altitude has made with our team very tough selection. Lena was waiting in the camp at 4400. Liana took a wise decision not to continue climbing in the camp of 6100, due to the worsening of bronchitis. Michail decided to stop climbing after a strong cold wind and snow hurt his eyes.

12-hour climb from Camp 6100 to the summit has required a lot of energy. And the return was very tense. But now everything is behind us, the entire team is at the base camp, at 3660, on the grass. All is well. Summiters are happy. Not summiters are happy that managed to maintain health. Best regards! Sergei Larin.

Hello!

Hello, Seven Summits!

News from Pamir. Our group spent three nights in the camp on 5300. We waited for weather. Now there was a probability of a weather window and we move to the camp on 6100, at top of Razdelnaya Peak. Everything is normal …. At us everything is normal. All members feel well. Only one - Lena remained in camp on 4400. It is necessary to pay her tribute. Her speed movement is a little bit more slowly than ours. And she offered the interests, for the sake of interests of group.

I will contact where it will possible.
