Hello to everyone from the 7 Summits Club group "Zhduny" from the Southern slopes of Elbrus! Today we moved to the refuge "National Park", where we will spend several days. We had a busy day. We climbed higher up the slope of Elbrus and conducted training sessions. We learned how to walk in ropes, move along fixed ropes, and of course, we remembered our childhood, sliding down and practicing self-arrest on a snowy slope.

After a delicious lunch, we rested a little and just admired the views of the mountains. And I must say, the weather today is simply magical! And, of course, we are very cozy here in the warm houses.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Dorojukov reports from the Elbrus region

 Greetings from the Elbrus region from the "South Africa" group! Today we began our acclimatization on the slopes of Mount Cheget. Summer has come - it has become very warm, even hot. Perfect weather, beautiful views, beautiful flowers around. We can say that summer has finally come to the mountains. In the evening we are preparing to go to the high-mountain zone. We are working according to plan.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Sergey Avtomonov reports from Turkey:

The 7 Summits Club Crazy Horses group went to the Ararat assault camp for acclimatization today. There was fog in the morning and we were a little cold in the camp. But then, when we left, the weather cleared up and it was a beautiful day. We reached our assault camp, sunbathed there for half an hour and went down. We reached the base camp, which had already become home, rested, and in the evening we were fed shashlik. Tomorrow we are leaving to spend the night in the assault camp and immediately to the summit bid at night.
