Hello to the 7 Summits Club from Papua New Guinea! Today at 9 am our team "SPAPUANATY" in full force stood on top of the highest volcano in Australia and Oceania — GILUVE (4368 m)! From the base camp at an altitude of 3700 we reached the summit in 3.5 hours. The last 150 meters of a fairly steep climb we went using a rope for belay, which undoubtedly added extreme for the participants! The mountain turned out to be not so trekking!
We decided today to go down to the bottom and move to the lodge. We were insanely tired during this busy day, we were on our feet for more than 12 hours today.
We are resting now, all the details are tomorrow!

The stars have come together! Today, all the Papuan gods were kind to us and our team members finally came to Mount Hagen, passing the longest queues at Mort Moresby airport!
After lunch, we stopped at the supermarket, bought everything we needed and went to our Magic Mountain Lodge. In 40 minutes we reached the place by a scenic road. The team members are pleasantly surprised by our proximity to nature, abundance of greenery and beautiful views.
We settled into the lodge, drink coffee, chat about the mountains, travel, laugh a lot and discuss plans for tomorrow. By brainstorming, the name of our group was born: "SPAPUANATS".

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Andrey Berezin reports from Nepal:
Namaste from Nepal! The group "Let's GoKio" came to the capital of the Sherpas Namche Bazaar today. The path ran through the picturesque Khumbu Valley. The trail constantly crossed the river, and we crossed it on suspension bridges, which are the hallmark of this trek. One of the most famous bridges is the Hillary Bridge, installed at an altitude of two hundred meters. Tomorrow we are going on an excursion around Namche.
There was a warm welcome everywhere. The guide of the 7 Summits Club Svetlana Kotlyar arrived at the place of the beginning of the climbing program on Giluve

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Svetlana Kotlyar reports from Papua New Guinea:
Less than two days have passed since I got to Papua New Guinea! The route to the country of exotics is far from the easiest: Moscow 🇷🇺- Abu Dhabi 🇦🇪 - Manila 🇵🇭 - Port Moresby 🇬🇳 - Mount Hagen ..
I haven't gotten this far yet, and I found out about the existence of the names of some cities from the list just a month ago. The last weeks of preparation have been stressful. Sheets of correspondence with a partner, detailed discussion of the program, communication with participants, booking tickets, constant monitoring of covid rules at the docking points, waiting for a visa...
It seemed that a little more and my eye would start twitching! Before the trip, I slept for three hours and, having finished collecting a 35-kg bag, moved to Sheremetyevo. I remember the face of a nice girl Tatiana at the reception and her sincere surprise in her eyes: "Where is this?!"
Manila caused the most concern, which did not completely cancel the covid restrictions. I had to get my luggage, change the terminal, walk across the street and check in for the next flight. All these actions equated to a visit to the Philippines. What happened in fact: at the exit of the plane, I was met by two nice girls with a sign with my name on it. They found my luggage themselves, helped me carry it, put me on a bus to another terminal, checked me in for the next flight! And at the same time, in fact, they did not look at any documents, except for a visa to Papua!
In Port Moresby, one meticulous aunt tried to remove the sausage from my trunk! But I said that we, tourists, in your Papuan mountains, there is definitely no way without it! Last domestic flight to Mount Hagen. Permitted baggage is 16 kg. The surcharge for the preponderance is around $ 60-70.
— Where are you from?
— From Russia. I'm going to Mount Hagen, tomorrow I'll meet the group and we'll go to the Giluve volcano!
They smile..
— There is no need to pay anything extra. Do you know where to go on a domestic flight? Let's take you out!
Papua New Guinea welcomed me so hospitably!
Tomorrow I meet a group and - let the adventures begin!

The group of the 7 Summits Club moved to the base camp Orizaba. Before leaving, we took a photo with our guides Julio and Katrina. On the way, we waited for our mountain to open. At first it was in the cloud. But then, we were lucky and Orizaba opened. People often die on this mountain. Steep ice slopes without gentle slopes. And at the bottom there is a stone scree. There are years when there is clear ice on the route. But we are lucky. There is little ice on the mountain now. Mostly snow and firn.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Viktor Volodin reports from Nepal:
Chronology of the ascent of the "Upward Movement" group on Ama-Dablam.
On October 27, the group left the base camp for Camp 1. The path is quite simple, but very long. At first, he walks over simple mounds and hills, and then over rocks and not very steep slabs, we approach the first camp.
October 28th. We leave the camp not very early. Mostly along fixed ropes on steep cliffs, we get to the second camp. It is located on a small rocky island, where there is very limited space for tents. We had to make room very much. The four of us spend the night, where everyone has stones sticking out under our backs. The night passed with great difficulties, but this did not stop us. And on the morning of October 29, we go up to the camp 3. Also, we move along steep fixed ropes on rocks, ice, snow in full force to the third camp. It is located on a snow-ice “cushion”, tents stand well and horizontally. Here you can decompose well and stretch out to your full height. But there is one drawback - a strong wind is blowing, but this is not such a problem. We are resting.
On October 30, in the morning, with a strong wind, but good visibility, we go up. Katya stays in the camp because she is not feeling very well. The path continues along the snow-ice wall and ridge. We are moving slowly, the height is already felt. And at 14.30 we reached the top, from where a wonderful and beautiful view of the Himalayan giants opens: Everest, Lhotse, Makalu is my dream, with the Parago rib. We take memorable pictures and after 15 minutes we begin the descent. Everything goes well and safely, we go down to camp 3. On October 31, we begin the descent to the base camp, everything is fine, everyone is happy . The base camp is waiting for us with good food, a shower and everything you need to continue life. Today we are going down to Kathmandu, to wash, to eat and to prepare for departure to the Homeland. Thank you for watching and worrying about us!

Namaste from Nepal! Today, the group climbed the Mera La pass, 5400 meters high, for full acclimatization. Along the way, we mastered and remembered the skills of walking in crampons, as well as ways to move along snowy slopes with an ice pick. We did all this in the morning, rested after lunch, gained strength before tomorrow. And tomorrow we will go up to the assault camp at 5800, from where we will start to the summit at night from October 30 to October 31. There will be no contact with us for a couple of days.
