The group's guide Andrey Berezina reports from Nepal:

Namaste from Nepal! The 7 Summits Club "Annapurchata" group is on the road again! Today we walked through a bamboo forest almost the entire day. And today was also the first sunny day of our trek. We are enjoying the sun.

Hello to everyone from the team of trekkers and climbers on Everest! Yesterday we had a rest day in Namche, which we spent doing Easter chores! Our team includes a pastry chef, Natalia, and she volunteered to bake Easter cake for us, here, at an altitude of 3400! It turned out to be quite a quest. We were given a separate kitchen, while the Easter cake was being baked, the rest of the team members were also busy - they painted eggs and sang a song with a guitar. It was very fun and soulful!

The Easter cake will turn out very tasty and of course it was in the shape of the main peak of the planet! In the morning we congratulated each other on the holiday and set out on the route. Today's Namche - Dibuche trek is one of the most beautiful on the program. We saw Everest, Lhotse and Ama Dablam for the first time. There is still a lot of greenery here, but the mountains are already very clearly visible! On the way we stopped by the Tengboche monastery.

Now we have already checked into our cozy Rivendell lodge and are getting ready for dinner. Alex Abramov, Victor Volodin and Sveta Kotlyar.

April 20. Expedition to Dhaulagiri. Namaste to everyone from Nepal from the Dhaulagiri Lovers Club group! This morning we left Marfa early in the morning towards Dhaulagiri Base Camp. According to the plan, the trek should take 4-5 days. We walked for almost 6 hours to the first camp and gained 1400 vertical meters. The path passed by coniferous forests and juniper thickets against the backdrop of the most beautiful peaks of the Nilgiri massif. By lunchtime, we arrived at the camp at an altitude of 4100. We had a festive picnic in honor of Easter with supplies that we brought from our homeland. Tomorrow, according to the plan, we are going to 5000 and the day after tomorrow we will try to climb the six-thousander Dhampus Peak. We are doing well. The weather is great.

The leader of the Dhaulagiri expedition is Lyudmila Korobeshko.
