Guide and manager of the 7 Summits Club Anastasia Kuznetsova reports from Iran:

 Greetings from Larijan! Larijan is a village in Iran with hot springs at the foot of Demavend. Our team of the 7 Summits Club started from here towards the Demavend base camp called Barham Sevom (4150 m).

At the camp with the mosque, we loaded our luggage onto jeeps and started the ascent on foot. The process of climbing showed that we have the best team. We decided to rename it "The Expendables" (but perhaps this is also not the final name of the group). All the participants went together and helped each other. There were no other groups on the mountain besides our group. This confirmed that we have chosen the right strategy. And of course, everyone was pleased with the surprise from our chefs. We didn't eat such yummy food even in restaurants in Tehran. Now we are resting and preparing for tomorrow.

Your guides are Valery Myasoyedov, Evgeny Fedyunin, project coordinator - Anastasia Kuznetsova.

We invite everyone to Iran!

President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov reports from Pakistan:

Today in Skardu we collected all the goods, bought everything, packed everything. The biggest shock among local porters was caused by 200 liters of Coca Cola, which 10 porters will carry to the K2 Base Camp. As is known, CO2 is washed out at altitude. And this will be our know-how. Coca Cola, of course, will not replace 120 oxygen cylinders for us, but according to our calculation it will give the necessary acceleration.

Tomorrow our team of 12 Nepalese Sherpas and 8 Pakistani high-altitude porters will leave for Ascole. According to the plan, they should arrive at the K2 Base Camp 5 days earlier than the participants, put our most comfortable base camp on K2. And I will go with them - the head of the expedition, Alexander Abramov. By the way, cherries have already ripened in Skardu. Come here!
