Buenos Dias!  Today, the  group of Los Bandidos goes up to spend a night on Nido de Condores. And tomorrow we will try to go to Colera. The guides of the group are Andrey Berezin and Viktor Volodin.

Sergey Larin, guide of the 7 Summits Club, from Tanzania:

The group of the 7 Summits Club climbed to the top of Kilimanjaro today.  What is remarkable about the ascent?  Four Butko sisters, aged 14 to 30, climbed on the summit at once, together with their father. Kirill Tergalinsky, who is 11 years old, also reached the top. And it was the first ascent of Kilimanjaro without alcohol in my memory. With the exception of the guide, he could of course do it, but he was warned too late.

Vladimir Kotlyar, guide of the 7 Summits Club, from Antarctica:

Aloha, the 7 Summits  Club! The guides Alexander Dorojukov and Vladimir Kotlyar are in touch. Well, today we finally flew out of the Vinson Massif base camp to Union Glacier. And here we immediately met a large plane from Punta Arenas. The previous group, which climbed the summit, flew to a populated land, to a large continent. Well, we met a new group. In general, everything happened so quickly. What I would like to say. Hugged, kissed, shook hands with the previous group. There was a lot of it. But when the friends left and boarded the plane, it seems that this was not enough.

Therefore, Sasha and I sent our warmest Antarctic hugs and handshakes there, to the Mainland, to the friends from the previous group. We've missed you a lot, to be honest, although it's only been a couple of hours since you left. So come on, drink a can of beer for us there, eat a piece of meat! Well, Sania and I are announcing a new expedition to the Vinson Massif open. I hope we will fly to base camp tomorrow, and today we will stay at Union Glacier. Everyone, thank you all!

Sergey Larin, guide of the 7 Summits Club, from Tanzania:

Hello! The group of the 7 Summits Club is preparing to climb Kilimanjaro in the Kosovo camp (4860m). Everything is going according to plan, so the main news tomorrow is on the day of the ascent!

The 7 Summits Club’s  guide Andrey Berezin from Argentina:  Buenos Dias, everyone! News of the Los Bandidos group, from the slopes of Aconcagua. Yesterday we made an acclimatization climb to Plaza Canada, an altitude of 5000 meters.   We also made a depot for the camp on Nido de Condores . Today we are resting, we are going through a medical check. And also we hand over some of our personal belongings with porters and prepare for tomorrow's exit with an overnight stay at Nido de Condores. The guides of the group are Andrey Berezin and Viktor Volodin.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Lyubov Ivanova: Summit! On January 8th at 10:30 am we were at the top. The group left the glacier 5000 m at 7 am.  After 2.5 hours, everyone was on the top, the first Natasha Sklyar!  The descent from the summit was also made in record time: 2 hours from the top to the upper camp at 4650 m. I must say that the weather has been seriously scaring us all these days, and there was a snowfall (hail) and a thunderstorm in earnest. And not a very good forecast, even from the Oso itself, for the night of the ascent.  But our team went into battle without hesitation and doubt, and reached the top in the shortest possible time!  I recommend all participants without exception for further ascents with the 7 Summits Club.

The 7 Summits Club guide Andrey Berezin from Argentina:

Buenos Dias, everyone! Today, a group of Los Bandidos, in order to get acquainted with local attractions, visited an abandoned hotel. Built in the 80s of the 20th century, now the hotel is mothballed and no one lives in it.  Next to the hotel, we held a warm-up exercise, under the guidance of Viktor Volodin.  Now we are back in the Plaza de Mulas, having lunch and relaxing. Tomorrow, according to the plan, it will be an acclimatization ascent to Plaza Canada.  The guides of the group are Andrey Berezin and Viktor Volodin.

Boris Egorov, guide of the 7 Summits Club, from Mexico: 

And we continue to warm up on the rocks in the Northern part of Mexico. We came to El Potrero Chico precisely because there are a huge number of multi-pitches (long climbing routes).  And this is exactly what you need to work out the interaction on the wall and develop strength endurance.   Yesterday we quickly climbed a rather long route of 12 pitches. Alexey was in the lead all the way, and the guides only served the delays and enjoyed the views like tourists. After the descent, we decided to run to a small tower before the pile, it looks like we have a solid collection of such rock "spires". At this point, we believe that the preparation is over and we have a whole day of flights and transfers to get to the canyon with a big rock walls.

Sergey Larin, guide of the 7 Summits Club, from Tanzania:

News from Kilimanjaro from the group formed by the expedition headquarters of Fyodor Konyukhov. Our high-altitude trekking is going according to plan. On January 6, the group went up to the Shira 3000m camp. On January 7, we moved to the Shira 3900m camp. On January 8, the group goes to the Baranko 4000m Camp, through the Lava Tower 4600m. I am writing these lines on Lava Tower, where we have lunch. The participants' well-being corresponds to the heights achieved.

Boris Egorov, guide of the 7 Summits Club, from Mexico: 

Hello everyone from Mexico! A new adventure has begun, prepared especially for Alexey Sivkov and Zhenya Lesnitsky. We were going to climb the big wall again, in an adult way, with overnight stays in suspended platforms and with huge trunks, which we ourselves will drag up on ropes. But we will have it all in a few days, and in the meantime we are warming up on the rocks of the El Potrero chico massif. This is the most famous rock climbing area of Mexico, located near the city of Monterey. Guides Boris Egorov and Vladimir Murzaev.

Andrey Berezin, guide of the 7 Summits Club, from Argentina:

News from Aconcagua. Our team is now called Los Bandidos. Yesterday we came to the Confluencia camp, and this morning we made an trek under the Southern Face of Aconcagua.  We reached an altitude of 4000 meters, where we spent half an hour eating sandwiches and drinking tea for acclimatization. After that, we returned to Confluencia, where we rested for the rest of the day and prepared for tomorrow's move up to the Plaza de Mulas base camp. In the evening, the whole group passed a Medical Check - a mandatory confirmation of physical condition for the visit  to the Base Camp.  Tomorrow we leave for the Plaza de Mulas camp.  The guides of the group are Andrey Berezin and Viktor Volodin.

In the evening we arrived at the Zaapan shelter, our hotel. And tomorrow we will move very slowly and calmly to base camp 4200.

Hello everyone and Happy New Year from North America! A group of five participants is located somewhere in the vastness of Mexico on the way to the highest volcano on the continent - Orizaba Peak (5636 m). On the way to the volcanoes, they get to know Mexico, its culture, history and, of course, gastronomy. The guide Lyubov Ivanova, an expert on Mexico, an ethnographer and an expert on ancient Indian culture, helps them to immerse themselves in the culture of the country.

  The team members walked around the historic center of Mexico City and the colorful Santo Angel district. They walked through the streets of colonial Puebla, the capital of the eponymous state of Mexico. And of course, they visited the largest pyramid in the world, Cholula. This pyramid with a cathedral on top against the background of volcanoes is one of the most photographed places in Mexico.
