The best camp

 Only a few days left before start of expedition of the 7 Summits Club on Everest,. Preparations are underway in Moscow, but most of them are going on in Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, under the direction of our permanent “Director of Sherpas” Mingma Gelu.

 The pride of the 7 Summits Club is our team of Sherpas. It began to take shape in 2003. Thanks to the hard work, above all, the permanent leader of the expeditions, Alexander Abramov, an efficient, friendly team was created.  They clearly understand  their role and knows how to help climbers to achieve their goal. This year, 24 employees from Nepal, Sherpa nationality, will be  sent to Tibet with us to work as guides, high-altitude porters and cooks. They received a new set of clothes and are finishing preparations for going to the base camp.

On January 27, 2019,  President of the 7 Summits Club Alex Abramov climbed the highest peak of South America, Mount Aconcagua, as part of “Seven summits in seven months” project. His partner on the climb was a guide the 7 Summits Club Artem Rostovtsev.  During the short acclimatization and preparation for the ascent, Alex Abramov lived in the "Russian camp" of the 7 Summits Club on the Plaza de Mulas and Nido de Condores. 

The ascent  took place in difficult weather conditions, Alexander and Artem were the only climbers who climbed to the top on this day.

The expedition was held in the framework of the record project "Seven summits in seven months", which is carried out by the President of the 7 Summits  Club Alexander Abramov...

 Our dear friend!  We wish you further movement to various summits in life! You've already proved all to everyone once. The symbol of your success in life has become a unique record: the largest amplitude. Namely, the record depth in caves and the highest peak of the World (twice) on the surface.  Everest was reached in the team of the 7 Summits Club.

 Hello from the base camp  of Carstensz Pyramid! Project "Seven summits in seven months" continues. Today our team, in good weather, had a great training session on ropes. We have climbed the first five pitches of the route up. Worked out movements on jumars: vertical fixed ropes, horizontal. After that, we worked down the rope.  We went down five pitches on descenders. Well, in general, the team is almost ready to summit climb. In the afternoon we rested and slept. Now it's eight o'clock. We have dinner and go to bed. According to the plan, a rise in 1 a.m. and in two we got to go climbing. We hope to successfully climb tomorrow and safely descend to the base camp. If everything goes as we plan, the day after tomorrow we plan to fly by helicopter back to Timika.

"7 Summits s in 7 months with Alexander Abramov"

 On March 19th, 2019, a group of 7 Summits Club, guide Boris Yegorov and three  members, climbed the second highest summit of the Kenya massif, Nelion peak, with a height of 5188 meters. To the highest point, the peak of Batian (5199m), it was decided not to go, not to get to the "cold overnight".  Simply, there was not enough day time.  Now the group safely descended to the foot of the summit and Boris Yegorov sent a large selection of photos from the ascent.

Hello, Seven Summits! This is guide Boris Yegorov from Kenya, Africa. Today we climbed to the peak of Nelion... To the top of Batian we lacked a little bit of time (we expect details)…

Alexander Abramov, President of the 7 Summits Club, from Papua:

The weather is bad in Timika. For 9 days  helicopters can't fly. We hope for the best…

A miracle happened. The first two helicopters left today. Unfortunately, this is the first expedition flew. They waited here for 8 days. Our cook with things for the camp has not yet flown. We're scheduled to fly tomorrow. But the mountains are covered with clouds again.  We will pray all night to the Papuan gods.

 Super-Guide of the  7 Summits Club  Boris Yegorov  via satellite phone from Equatorial Africa:

 Hello, Seven  Summits! This is guide Boris Egorov from Kenya. Today, we,  without hurry, but at the same time quickly enough, went to the point of Lenana – this is the third highest peak in the Kenya massif. We passed the route in two and a half hours, which, in пeneral, is not bad. And we went down to  our assault camp - Austrian hut. And then suddenly a cloud with snow covered us. Snow fell, the mountain turned white.  So we turned relaxed and decided to have a rest tomorrow.  We have  for a rest one more day in a stock. And while, we plan to storm the day after tomorrow. All, of course, slightly upset. But…

 Today, Alexander Abramov flew from Moscow to the South. His new goal, the fourth peak of the project "Seven summits in seven months", the highest peak of Australia and Oceania Pyramid Carstensz on the island of New Guinea.  The President of the 7 Summits Club will lead a small group of Russian male climbers and Indian female climbers…

Boris Yegorov, guide of 7 Summits Club from Kenya:

Good evening! Today I had a difficult day in Africa. Basically it went like this:

…  waiting for the participants of the expedition, and ended with the following…

We gathered in a very remarkable restaurant where you can taste the meat of wild animals.

 I liked the team gathered to climb Batian Peak (Kenya massif). Old friends were happy to meet.  Today we have a rest, and tomorrow in plans  there is moving to the National Park and small passes on jungle: 9 kilometers and 600 meters of a climb.

Tomorrow the program of ascent to Batian peak (5199 m) will begin.  This program is part of the project of our Club "7 Super Mountains"!  This project includes programs of climbing the iconic mountains from different continents (Matterhorn, Alpamayo etc…).

 Program guide Boris Yegorov is already in Kenya! He successfully passed acclimatization, climbing to the top of  Point Lenana (4985 m), the third highest peak of the Kenya massif. He has now returned to Nairobi to meet the participants of the programme tomorrow.

  Irena Kharazova, famous for her diaries from the expedition to Everest and became the brightest heroine of the film "Gene of Heights", returns with a new project.  After successfully completing the project "Seven Summits" and giving birth the child, as promised in the film,  Irena for some time disappeared from our field of vision. But now she appeared again and comes out with a new bright project – "Seven Super Mounts". Six months ago Irena made a successful ascent to the most beautiful peak of the world - Alpamayo in Peru.

  And now she goes to Kenya to make a difficult technical ascent to the most difficult peak of Africa - Kenya 5200 (peaks Nelion and Batian). Date of trip March 14-21. You can also join a support group and make a simpler ascent in the Kenya massif - to the top of Lenana 4895 at a special price.
