All news: April 2018

We are pleased to announce that this fall the 7 Summits Club  will organize a unique expedition "Two in one": Everest and Lhotze for one trip. Alexander Abramov held talks with the Nepalese authorities and received "good" from them.  Our Sherpa team is ready to hang fixed ropes through the Khumbu icefall and ensure the safety of climbers. We received good and "safety" option to overcome the icefall, that is, given permission for the transfer by helicopters people and cargo immediately to the camp 2, at the beginning of the Western Cwm.

 We invite to take part in our expedition the boldest and most daring climbers!   It's a rare chance to go down in history. After all, in the fall climbers rarely climb Everest and Lhotse, and these two peaks in one expedition in the fall has not yet been "conquered".

 Programs with prices will appear on the site in the coming days…

April 15^th the International women's expedition to the North pole, which includes our Olya Rumyantseva, flew from Spitsbergen to the base (ice camp) Barneo.  Despite the difficult flight, the girls did not stay long at the base and on the same day went on the road. On the first day it was passed 10 kilometers. The outside temperature of the tents was around minus 38 degrees.

Hello from Nepal! We climbed Kala Patthar and saw a stunning panorama of the Himalayas! The weather in the morning caused some confusion, starless sky and poor visibility. But we decided - let's go! An hour later, the cloud began to settle, and all opened! This is a must see!... We were on Kala Patthar  as not doubting, and on the descent saw the strings of those who love to sleep in! ...

Valeriy Myasoedov, guide of the 7 Summits Club from Nepal:

 Hello from Nepal! The group's Harmless Newcomers program is coming to the equator, tomorrow early we will climb Kala Patar.  The forecast is good, it should be clear, and we hope we will be able to get the best views of Everest and nearby giants. Yesterday on the transition in Lobuche we made the obligatory stop at the Memorial to fallen climbers and honored their memory.

 And today there was an exit from Gorak Shep to the Base camp of Everest, the culmination of the program, for which all the participants of our groups come. Everest hid from us in the clouds, but we examined the Base camp thoroughly and tasted coffee in one of the Nepali expeditions, friends of our Namgel.

 Tomorrow's early exit, so today's early departure. Wait for photo with Kala Patar!

The construction of the base camp continues. Now Sherpas equip public tents, among which as a  novelty will be a bar. Meanwhile, the members begin to gather in Kathmandu. As well as guides…

Lyudmila Korobeshko, group guide, Director of the Club 7 Tops:

 Hello from Bolivia Asay from Me and our group of al-Ko! Late last night we finally returned from the Atacama desert, where we found the valley of geysers at an altitude of almost 5000M, the Dali desert, stone figures, warm springs and KILIMANJARO! Amazing places! Would definitely recommend a visit! Surrealism is complete! And today We have made this! We passed on THE road of DEATH with a breeze and a rain! About 60 km in length and 3.5 km in Delta! Sometimes breath-taking-on sharp turns and under waterfalls.

A whole army of our Sherpas, local guides, high-altitude porter, cooks and their assistants received new sets of clothes made by Red Fox. It is a proper form for working in severe high altitude conditions. Judging by their faces, the new things suited to taste. Beautiful clothes oblige to good work, so we believe.

 Alexander Abramov, President of Club 7 Vershin, leader of the expedition to Everest:

 This year we are making a more comfortable base camp – Luxury Camp, as we call it. We deliver and put new spacious tents with beds, heaters and a work table. Also, we are waiting for a new level of our cuisine, because our beloved Chef from Antarctica Patricio has already come to us. The whole expedition is ready. This year we have 20 participants, 7 guides and 6 cooks. And 35 Sherpas. We have the largest expedition on Everest in 2018.
