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!

Guide 7 Summits Club Boris Tenigin:

Tour  named "7 Summits Maya" at the foot of Mont Blanc has been successfully completed. In the remaining hours we enjoy the summer and the French pastries!
