Greetings from Elbrus! Today our new group made their first acclimatization rotation. We climbed up the trails and slopes of Mount Cheget to the famous cafe "Ai" at an altitude of 2700 meters. The weather was wonderful. After lunch we visited the rental point and were ready to leave for the slopes of Elbrus.

Today our new group called "Agiri" left Van towards Ararat. We got there in three hours. We went out on the trail. At first it was very hot. Then it started to rain, but the sun did not stop shining. When we reached the base camp, the weather improved, and we dried off. We had lunch, rested, and then it started to rain again. We hope the weather will improve tomorrow.
