All news: February 2018

Anastasia and Konstantin Lapko stood on top of Kilimanjaro on February 8, 2018. They went up by the shortest route, Marangu (in sport version - in 5 days) and successfully coped with this difficult task. Then Anastasia and Konstantin went on a Safari through the parks of Tanzania and are now returning home. Congratulations on the summit and wish you further achievements!

 Anastasia Lapko: Oh, everything was just great!!! We are now at Dubai airport. Guides - well done!!! A huge thanks to them! For me, this ascent turned out to be much easier than Elbrus, as a walk. But my husband covered by mountain sickness. But if I was not a biochemist and not taking pills, he could not be reached the summit. Although the figures were the same for we all (me, husband, and guide). It was great! We are insanely happy!

 Today there was a successful ascent of Mount Kenya by a group of the 7 Summits Club.  Mary Shevchuk and Alexander Mikhailov were members of this group.

Olga Rumyantseva, representative of Russia and the 7 Summits Club in the international women's expedition to the North pole:

From the plane - in the campaign.

Just arrived in Iceland, and here I am already at business.

Not being burden much information, I ran shipping sleigh.

At the same time I came in the story hit. I am in the picture. Here I am in the background in green cap  )))

We drove three hours in a blizzard, in the dark. So about Iceland I can only say only that it is dark and cold.

 Tomorrow morning the fun begins. We'll put on skis, get in a sled and go somewhere.

 But I'll tell about it later. It’s seems there will be no connectivity next days.

News from Tanzania. Another group of 7 summits Club successfully climbed Mount Kilimanjaro. Members of the expedition received their diplomas. We congratulate them on the summit and wish them continued success!

Hi, 7 Summits Club! We continue our diary of the ascent of Mount Aconcagua. Today is our day of rest and on this occasion we decided to prepare chicken soup by ourself.  We asked to the dining room to the local guys. They allocated us products allocated cooking place.

We rest slowly, we come off. Rest day - we need to recover. I'm gonna go ask how our group is doing. Now I am trying to find them…

 Tomorrow we plan to reach Nido de Condores, a high-rise camp at 5,400.  With overnight already.

Olga Rumyantseva, a representative of the 7 Summits Club, guide and manager of our company:

This Sunday our women's team will gather in Reykjavik, from where we will go on a small ski trip.

This will be the last training campaign before the expedition to the North pole in April.

We will  ski daily 15-30 kilometers through the lava fields, learn to overcome torosy, ice-hole, quickly break camp and pack it in extreme weather conditions and so on... In General, we will work out everything we need during the expedition in the Arctic and check the equipment.

I'll finally meet the team. ))
