The president of the 7 Summits Club company, Alex Abramov, reports from the Elbrus region:

Today was a great day! The SuperGirls team took an interesting route: we climbed the trail up the slope of Mount Cheget to the Ai cafe. We rested there and then went down to Lake Donguz Orun. Many of the girls in the group were in the mountains for the first time. So, it was very interesting for everyone. Tomorrow we have training "snow classes" on the slope of Elbrus.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Sergey Avtomonov reports from the Elbrus region:

Greetings from the Elbrus region! A group of Brazilian friends of the 7 Summits Club climbed to the refuge today and settled into comfortable houses. Then we went to practice walking with crampons and using an ice axe. All participants learned the technique of self-arrest on a snowy slope, walked along the fixed ropes and returned to the house, where a delicious lunch awaited us. In the evening, we discussed plans for tomorrow, getting ready for the climb to the Pastukhov Rocks.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Olga Rumyantseva sends from sunny Morocco:

Greetings to everyone from Morocco from the Tajin group! Today, almost the entire group climbed Mount Toubkal. The team set out to climb long before dawn. We climbed over rocks for a long time, walked along rocky paths, looked at the stars and met the dawn. And finally, at eight in the morning, we found ourselves at the top.

Despite the fact that climbing Toubkal is considered quite easy, we had to work hard before we reached the top. Everyone was happy about it. Everyone was especially happy for our young participants in the climb.

By evening, we descended to the village of Imlil, where all the participants in the climb received well-deserved awards. Starting tomorrow, we will begin an exciting entertainment program in other places in Morocco.

Hello everyone! Yesterday, August 17, the "Ural-TOP-team" of the 7 Summits Club climbed to the top of Western Peak of Elbrus 5642m! The day was very eventful.

 Today, August 17, our super-group "Sibiriki" in full force climbed the Western summit of Elbrus (5642m). We climbed on a reserve day, since on Friday there was a hurricane wind at the summit. Everything went well, and the weather pleased us, it was sunny and cool. The group safely descended to the hotel, where they received well-deserved awards and certificates for the ascent.

The 7 Summits Club guide Alexander Dorojukov sends from the Elbrus region:

 Greetings from the "Alpinists Drink Sparkling Wine" group! Yesterday we completed our program with a successful climb to the top of Mount Elbrus. The weather was gorgeous, sunny and cool, you can already feel autumn, it's getting colder on the mountain, so we dressed warmly. We used the reserve day and, as it turned out, not in vain. The conditions for the climb were excellent, as well as the panoramic views that opened up.

Olga Rumyantseva, the 7 Summits Club guide, sends the following message from sunny Morocco:

Greetings to everyone from sunny and hot Morocco! Our large 7 Summits Club team has gathered here today. Thirteen participants from different cities and countries have come to Marrakesh to get to know this beautiful country and climb the highest mountain in North Africa, Jebel Toubkal.

This time, there are many young participants in the group who came with their parents to try climbing for the first time and test themselves at altitude. The youngest participant is 9 years old.

Since the age range in the group is very large, I suggested calling the team "Pioneers and Pensioners". But the name "Tajine" won by a small margin. This is a national dish in Morocco. Very tasty and hot. I hope that our adventures will be the same.

Today we all got acquainted, all the participants received gifts from the 7 Summits Club, walked along the streets of Marrakech. And tomorrow morning we will leave for the mountains to climb Toubkal.

The 7 Summits Club guide Alexander Avtomonov reports from the Elbrus region:

The 7 Summits Club group "Baul" in full force climbed the highest point of Russia and Europe, Mount Elbrus. We waited for the weather to improve and used the extra reserve day. The only thing is that there were a lot of other groups on the route. The team safely descended, accepting congratulations and making plans for the future.

The 7 Summits Club guide Natalia Marinkevich reports from the Elbrus region:

 Today the group "The Magnificent Seven and Natalia" successfully climbed the summit of Elbrus! The weather was favorable and there were many people on the mountain today. To climb to the top, we had to stand in line! The team successfully descended and is preparing to celebrate a successful ascent.

Pamir is calling! On August 15, the Club 8000 group "Lenin, brothers!" climbed Lenin Peak! The day was long. The first half of the day, as usual in the Pamirs, was clear and cloudless. We reached the summit after lunch; at which time the mountain was already covered by clouds and light snow began to fall. The descent took place under a snowfall. Here we felt all the vast expanses of Lenin Peak and its power. As a result, closer to the evening, the whole team was in the Third Camp.

On August 16, we safely descended to the First camp. Next, Osh with its benefits of civilization awaits us. Group guides Andrey Berezin and Valery Myasoedov.

Dmitry Semenov, the 7 Summits Club guide, reports from Elbrus:

 Greetings from Elbrus! Today we organized a full day of active recreation. The thing is that the weather made its own adjustments to our plans.
