 19.07. Hello everyone! The "Five Elements" group of the 7 Summits Club spent the first night in the high-mountain Refuge National Park at an altitude of 3900 meters. Everyone is feeling great! Today we went to acclimatize to the Refuge of Eleven at an altitude of 4100 meters. There we conducted snow and ice training, worked on the technique of climbing and self-arrest in case of falls.

After lunch, we adjusted the crampons to the boots, prepared for the next outing. Everything is going according to plan.

Take care of yourself!

See you in the mountains!

Good weather and good luck to everyone!

The Guide of the 8000 Club group Andrey Berezin reports from Kyrgyzstan:

 Hello everyone from Kyrgyzstan! The “Svet Zhok” group, as part of the acclimatization plan, climbed to the second camp of Lenin Peak, from where they radially descended to Razdelnaya Peak (6148 m). The weather changed during the climb, it was sunny for three days, and it was also hot on the "Frying Pan". Today we descended to Camp 1. As soon as we arrived, it started raining. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow we will definitely rest, further plans "for rest" and the time of start for the climb will be adjusted according to the weather.
