News from the expedition to Dhaulagiri. Today our team finally gathered in Kathmandu in full force. At 17.00 the big Gala Mega-party of several expeditions of the 7 Summits Club began. The teams of Everest, Dhaulagiri, trekking to Everest and Annapurna gathered. The guests of honor came - representatives of the Russian Embassy in Nepal, our friends-climbers: Yura Koshelenko and Lesha Lonchinsky (planning a new route in the Kanchi region), Victoria Bonya, who is currently going to Everest, our partners - Mingma Gelu Sherpa (8 times on Everest), his sister, the record-holder Lhakpa (10 times on Everest), Tashi with his son Nima (the youngest climber on all 14,8000 meters). We had a great chat, got to know each other. We celebrated the birthday of Vasya Taradin (going to Everest).
Our team on Dhaulagiri has been strengthened compared to last year by a new member - the president of the Moscow FAiS Dmitry Moskalov is going with us. From the Russian Embassy, we were given the Russian flag and the Victory Flag to bring to the summit. We will try.
Tomorrow is the last day of training. The day after tomorrow we fly to Pokhara.

The 7 Summits Club guide Alexander Dorojukov reports from Nepal:
Namaste to everyone from Nepal! The 7 Summits Club group "Te and Yeti" is on its way to Everest Base Camp. We woke up today with a very beautiful view of Ama Dablam and Everest. And this view accompanied us almost the entire way. We crossed from Deboche to Dingboche today. After lunch the weather started to get worse, but this doesn't scare us. We move on.
