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

News of the Elbrus region.  Yesterday, on June 7, the group of the 7 Summits Club "Mishutki & Co." in full force climbed the Western peak of Elbrus.  The weather, as usual, let us down, but we coped. Despite the snow and wind, we climbed to the top.

 Greetings to all from Tanzania from the Amazing group!  Today we had a great, half-relaxing day. Waking up in the morning, everyone was surprised and delighted to admire the blanket of clouds below us.  And those who were not too lazy to leave their homes at night could watch the incredible starry sky. After breakfast, we went for a short scenic walk to Zebra Rocks - black and white rock massive. In four hours we gained and dropped 400 meters, which is very good for acclimatization. And we saw a lot of beautiful things, which is just good.

At the camp, we were greeted with songs and dances. The ceremony of getting to know the team was held cheerfully. They sang songs, we danced. Tomorrow we will have a big march to the assault camp.

Guides Boris Egorov and Olga Rumyantseva.

Evgeny Fedyunin, a guide of the 7 Summits Club, reports from Tanzania:

Rafiki Jumbo! The group of the 7 Summits Club "Power Rangers" went through the jungle and threw off 2 km of vertical. On the descent, lunch was waiting for us and the long-awaited restoration of the water-alkaline balance with a local beer called Kilimanjaro! In the evening there will be an award ceremony and "demob" speeches on the mountain and about future plans. Good luck to everyone!
