Andrey Berezin a guide of the 7 Summits Club from Argentina:

Our second Aconcagua (New Year's) group successfully reached the base camp of the Plaza de Mulas. There we were cordially greeted by Alex Abramov.

Today we practiced moving in crampons on ice. For this, a beautiful glacier with calgaspores was chosen. Guides of the group Alex Abramov and Andrey Berezin.

Hi 7 Summits! This is Antarctica, Vinson Massif, Artyom Rostovtsev. I am calling from the High Camp. Yesterday, January 1st, we had a legal day of rest. We rested. We repackaged our equipment, decided what to take up. Yesterday, we quickly moved to the High Camp.

It's morning already, the sun has risen. Weather is windy, sunny ... Wish us good luck! Most likely, we will go today to storm the summit.

Dmitry Ermakov, guide of the 7 Summits Club  from Tanzania:

7 Summits, hello! This is Dmitry Ermakov from the summit of Kilimanjaro. Today, Fedor Konyukhov’s group climbed to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro, on Uhuru peak. One member got sick, and Anna and Alexander were able to reach only Stella Point. But, in principle, in such conditions as the weather was, it is a victory. Everything is fine with us, we are going down.

Almost all night the wind was so strong that it knocked down. Including even at the top there were strong gusts of wind. In fact, for all my years of being here on Kilimanjaro, I was for the first time at the top in such weather. But, thank God, everything is fine and everything worked out!
