The 7 Summits Club President Alexander Abramov flew to Moscow for 24 hours. Our captain took part in the 7 Summits Club's 18th anniversary celebration and was back at the Elbrus Refuge this morning. The weather is excellent and sunny, but windy, and the slopes are icy. Temperatures at the summit are forecast to be -30 degrees Celsius with winds of 50 km/h. Tonight, the group will attempt to climb Elbrus on dogsleds.

Namaste from the Himalayan Leopards group! Today we spent the day in Namche Bazaar. We slept in the morning, then went to the Everest View Hotel. The weather was kind, and we were able to see all the beauty of the Himalayas – all the main peaks, including Everest, were revealed to us. We drank tea at the hotel and descended. In the comfortable lodge, we showered, had a massage, and rested. Today is our last day, when the weather is really warm. We then leave the forest zone completely and walk through Tingboche Monastery to our favorite lodge. With you was Sergey Avtomonov, the 7 Summits Club guide.

The 7 Summits Club Super Guide Boris Egorov reports from Nepal:

Hello everyone! We continue our journey to the summit of Ama Dablam. Today we successfully reached Namche Bazaar. This is not a first trek for all of the participants, and the area is familiar to everyone. We'll be happy to spend a couple of days here.
