A friendly team of trekking to the Everest base camp and a team of climbers on Island Peak gathered in Kathmandu! A total of 18 participants! Already at night we are moving to Ramechap airport, from where there will be a flight to Lukla.

Everyone is in a great mood, we walked around the city in the afternoon and got acquainted with the local cuisine, bought the missing equipment.  All the members were presented with branded gifts from the Club, and in the evening they had a warm welcome dinner!

In the evening, the name of the team was born: "Ginger, lemon and buzz". Well, let these components allow everyone to successfully acclimatize and successfully reach their intended goal! See you on the air!

Artem Rostovtsev, the guide of the 7 Summits Club, reports from Nepal:

 Peace, labor, May! A column of beautiful girls after a hearty breakfast opened the morning May Day demonstration in the town of Periche. Under the falling snow. The snow was coming from the very clouds and clouds that have been hiding the beauty of the Himalayas for the fourth day. So under the snow and partly with the wind we went all the way to Lobuche. We are no longer used to it. No one is frozen or wet, the snow is dry. And in the lodges, as always, we are the brightest, cheerful and not tired. Base camp wait for us tomorrow!

A guide of the 7 Summits Club Andrey Berezin reports from the Elbrus region:

News of the Elbrus region. A group with the name "Peace, Labor, brut" has started a program of acclimatization and preparation for climbing Elbrus. Today we held a May demonstration to the Ai cafe on the slope of Cheget. The weather is early spring. There is snow on the slopes, the trails are also snow-covered. The legs got slightly wet, snow broke off from time to time. But it couldn't spoil our wonderful mood.  Tomorrow we will move to the refuge on the Elbrus slopes, where we will continue acclimatization. 

The head of the expedition to Makalu Lyudmila Korobeshko reports from Nepal:

Happy May 1st to everyone!  Yesterday we went to the first acclimatization. The climb to Camp 1 turned out to be quite difficult - there was a steep part in front of the camp itself. We spent the night at 6300. In the morning, part of the group got up into Camp 2, left the drop there and also ran down. The snowfall was quite heavy both days. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, May 2 and 3, according to the plan, are rest days. Everyone feels good. But we tired, of course.

Boris Egorov, the Guide of the 7 Summits Club, reports from Papua New Guinea:

And finally the adventure in Papua for the next big group began. They called themselves "Stars in boots"!! The first part arrived yesterday, and we entertained ourselves with conversations and sipped wine. And the next morning, as if nothing had happened, we conducted a joint yoga practice. Today, everyone finally gathered in the town of Mount Hagen, had lunch, checked out local shops and moved to a comfortable lodge in the middle of the rain forest. We had an incredibly interesting circle of acquaintances. The team is big, 10 people, and I wanted to listen to everyone without stopping. Tomorrow, an early ascent and trekking to the base camp under the Giluwe volcano.
