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!
