Hello to everyone from the Elbrus region! Today the 7 Summits Club group "Ali Na Akupi" in full force climbed to the highest point of Russia and Europe – Mount Elbrus. The weather conditions were quite normal, mostly clear and windy. All participants safely descended and received well-deserved awards.

News from the slopes of Mount Ararat. Today our group "Fathers and Sons" went to the assault camp for acclimatization. We slept well after the flight, had breakfast in the morning and went up. We briskly reached the camp in three and a half hours. It was a bit tough, but we managed. We got down in a couple of hours and started to rest in the base camp. Tomorrow we are going to spend the night in the assault camp.

 With you were the guides of the 7 Summits Club Sergey Avtomonov and Leuan Atabiev.

The Guide of the 7 Summits Club Evgeny Fedyunin reports from the Elbrus region:

 23.07. Hello everyone! The group "Five Elements" of the 7 Summits Club set out to climb tonight and reached the Elbrus Saddle - 5350 meters. Due to heavy snowfalls, we were unable to get higher! But no one despairs and everyone is happy with the result, because the entire route from the hotel on Chegetskaya Polyana (2000 m) to Elbrus Saddle (5350 m) was covered on foot, without technical support!

In the evening there was a gala dinner in a national restaurant, and we were already making plans for the future!

Greetings from Lenin Peak Base Camp! The "Pamir Vagabonds" group made their first acclimatization rotation to the ridge of Petrovsky Peak today. The weather was great, the views were stunning! We slowly reached the 4100 m mark, sat, rested, and admired the scenery. After lunch we checked the equipment and discussed the agenda for tomorrow. Tomorrow is an important day in terms of organization, all the equipment will be sent and the climb to the First Camp will take place. Guides Olga Startseva and Valery Myasoedov.

The 7 Summits Club Super Guide Artem Rostovtsev reports from Tanzania:

Hello 7 Summits! The slope of Kilimanjaro is in charge. Yesterday, the plan was almost completely fulfilled. It's a pity that now they don't let us climb the Lawa Tower itself, we would have climbed there for a better view. Now we are finishing our morning coffee and looking at the Barranco Wall. In an hour, we will storm it on the way to the next camp. The devices show that the condition of all our participants is satisfactory, which is confirmed by the whole team. We are walking moderately smoothly, in a friendly manner, we are coping with the height.

The 7 Summits Club Super Guide Boris Egorov reports from Peru:

 Hello from Peru! Today we have an incredible adventure, we spend the night in a unique vertical hotel, lost somewhere on the canyon wall, 350 meters above the ground. To get here, we climbed for more than an hour along a via ferrata. The wind whistles around us and the starry sky above us. This is an incredible place where you can feel a little bit like climbers on vertical walls!
