Namaste from Nepal! The Manasl-25 group continued exploring the surroundings of Samagaon today. We visited the monastery closest to us, located at an altitude of 4000 meters. It was cloudy all day, so we did not see the surrounding Himalayan peaks. But this did not stop us from having a good, useful time. Tomorrow we will go to the Manaslu base camp.

 Alexander Abramov:

Today our team gained 500 m in altitude and went above the 4000 meter mark. We climbed to the Pungen Gumba monastery. Tomorrow we go to the Base Camp. Olga Rumyantseva came there today. She highly praised our camp. In the evening, as always, our team doctor conducted a medical examination. Everyone is doing great.

The 7 Summits Club Guide Boris Egorov reports from Nepal:

Hello to everyone from Nepal! As part of the 8000 Club's large expedition to the eight-thousander Manaslu, Alexey Sivkov and I also decided to try ourselves at altitude. And today we have already arrived at the base camp at an altitude of 4800 meters. We are accompanied by friends who will stay with us for several days at this altitude.

After three days of village life in Samagaon, the conditions here are, of course, great! We are still getting used to the tent life.

Greetings from such a hot Africa! Today our supergroup "My Girlfriend's Words" moved to the next camp, Karanga, at an altitude of 4000 meters. Today was a very busy and interesting day. In the morning we overcame the legendary Barranco wall, and then passed through two more valleys. The scale is amazing, what a huge Mount Kilimanjaro it is! Tomorrow we leave for our assault camp.
