Two groups of the 7 Summits Club held classes on mountaineering techniques on the slopes of Elbrus in fine weather

Natalia Marinkevich, a guide of the 7 Summits Club, reports from the Elbrus region:

Natalia Marinkevich's group "Snow-fish" together with Andrey Berezin's group "Victoria-Pobeda" spent the first day on the slopes of Elbrus. We have worked out the technique of self-arrest, including when breaking down upside down. Classes were held on steep slopes at an altitude of 4000. We also trained the technique of traversing in crampons and with an ice axe.

All participants feel well. Comfortable accommodation and delicious food 4 times a day pleasantly delight future climbers!
