The 7 Summits Club guide Alexander Dorojukov sends from the Elbrus region:
Greetings from the "Climbers Drink Sparkling Wine" group! Today we climbed to the National Park shelter, checked into comfortable houses. Then we walked higher up the slope to the Refuge of Eleven. There we held training sessions. We trampled snow and ice slopes, chopped ice, felt carabiners. We learned to self-arrest when falling with an ice axe. In general, everything is going according to plan.
