The 7 Summits Club President Alexander Abramov reports from Chile:

The 7 Summits Club guide team has arrived in the Chilean city of Copiapo, in the Atacama Desert. From here, our adventures on the world's highest volcano, Ojos del Salado, begin.

 This season, the 7 Summits Club will have six groups on Ojos.

  Greetings from sunny Argentina! More specifically, from the slopes of Mount Aconcagua. Today, our supergroup spent their rest day at base camp. Our members visited a high-altitude art gallery and underwent a medical examination, where our group showed excellent results. Tomorrow we'll ascend to Camp Canada, an altitude of 5,000 meters, where we'll spend the night for better acclimatization. Group guides Dmitry Semenov and Georgy Bushuev.

The 7 Summits Club guide Artem Rostovtsev reports from Antarctica:

Greetings from Antarctica! While you were sleeping, we were out for a walk. The morning didn't bode well; it was chilly, and we even began to doubt whether it was worth go to Low Camp in such cold. While we were thinking and eating breakfast, the weather improved. We gathered all our gear and headed up. In the end, we reached the summit at a leisurely pace, in excellent weather conditions, in good time. Camp was set up, and everyone was well-fed and tired. They promised to sleep long until the sun emerged from behind the mountain and had a late breakfast.
