Aloha, friends! The team of the 7 Summits Club on Lenin Peak continues to prepare for the summit assault. More precisely, we are resting now. But, as you remember, we have a rule – if it's a rest, then it's active, if it's a holiday, then it's sports. Therefore, after breakfast, we went for a walk to the "castles" created not by man, but by nature itself.

Alexander Dorojukov, guide of the 7 Summits Club, from Elbrus region: Today we went up to the refuge "National Park", settled in comfortable houses. According to the acclimatization plan, we walked to the former Refuge of Eleven and held snow and ice training there. There are streams flowing around, there is already little snow on the slopes, but we found it.  Now we had lunch and are resting at the refuge. The guides of the group are Andrey Berezin and Alexander Dorojukov.

Sergey Larin, guide of the 7 Summits Club: The ascent of the 7 Summits Club group on Kilimanjaro continues. It is more correct to say that this is a high-altitude trekking along the Machame route, which should end with an ascent to Kilimanjaro. Yesterday, on August 9, the group climbed 3000m to the first camp, today - to the second camp at 3900. The weather is favorable, it is not cold and not hot.
