Lenin Peak 2015

To credited ascent of Mount Abu Ibn Sina and get a certificate, you need to provide photos with a bust of Vladimir Lenin, which is on top of this mountain. This picture has been successfully done by a team of the Seven Summits Club on July 27 at 14:00 local time. At the top were: Valera, Dima, Maxim and I, Sergei. High altitude has made with our team very tough selection. Lena was waiting in the camp at 4400. Liana took a wise decision not to continue climbing in the camp of 6100, due to the worsening of bronchitis. Michail decided to stop climbing after a strong cold wind and snow hurt his eyes.

12-hour climb from Camp 6100 to the summit has required a lot of energy. And the return was very tense. But now everything is behind us, the entire team is at the base camp, at 3660, on the grass. All is well. Summiters are happy. Not summiters are happy that managed to maintain health. Best regards! Sergei Larin.

Hello, Seven Summits!

News from Pamir. Our group spent three nights in the camp on 5300. We waited for weather. Now there was a probability of a weather window and we move to the camp on 6100, at top of Razdelnaya Peak. Everything is normal …. At us everything is normal. All members feel well. Only one - Lena remained in camp on 4400. It is necessary to pay her tribute. Her speed movement is a little bit more slowly than ours. And she offered the interests, for the sake of interests of group.

Sergei Larin:

Hi, Seven Summits! Take the information from the expedition to the peak of Avicenna. Quickly flew two days of rest in the base camp at an altitude of 3600. And now we are advancing upward, already for climbing  assault. The weather is constantly changing, the weather is unstable, so we had to wait a  “window”  in the upper camps.

The 7 Summits Club guide Sergey Larin reports: .... Now we have 6:53 a.m.. We go down from the camp on Razdelnaya Peak, from an altitude of 6100 meters. There we held a successful acclimatization overnight. Our whole team feels good. The only thing - Elena has not participated in the outing, she is now in the camp at 4400. She is still normal, having no signs of altitude sickness. Just her body needs more time to acclimatize.

Up 6000 meters, the weather turned bad, now there was a strong wind - even blew off some tents. But we are in good health and went down, to rest. After a rest, we'll have to make way to the summit. Today we will try to go down as low as possible. Best regards!
