North Pole 2018

Thanks to Pavel Kornilov and Ilya Tyagly for photos and cool video! And our huge congratulations to the guys!  Once again we will call their names: Ilya Tyagly, Denis Eremeev, Pavel Kornilov.  On April 18, 2018, they reached the geographical North Pole of the Earth! Congratulations!!!

April 15^th the International women's expedition to the North pole, which includes our Olya Rumyantseva, flew from Spitsbergen to the base (ice camp) Barneo.  Despite the difficult flight, the girls did not stay long at the base and on the same day went on the road. On the first day it was passed 10 kilometers. The outside temperature of the tents was around minus 38 degrees.

Olga Rumyantseva, guide and manager of the 7 Summits Club, our representative in the international women's expedition to the North pole:

 First, any one of the team certainly did not expect such training.  The whole day of the snow storm. Other groups who find themselves in nature, were evacuated by rescuers. The road was closed. The tent broke.  We could move freely only on all fours and very brief. Inadvertently raised shovel leads to a decrease in this situation. We dig up, holding the tent, the rescue was not required. In general, it was a good training. . Hopefully on the way to the pole we did not encounter such mess...

From the plane - in the campaign.

Just arrived in Iceland, and here I am already at business.

Not being burden much information, I ran shipping sleigh.

At the same time I came in the story hit. I am in the picture. Here I am in the background in green cap  )))

We drove three hours in a blizzard, in the dark. So about Iceland I can only say only that it is dark and cold.

 Tomorrow morning the fun begins. We'll put on skis, get in a sled and go somewhere.

 But I'll tell about it later. It’s seems there will be no connectivity next days.

Olga Rumyantseva, a representative of the 7 Summits Club, guide and manager of our company:

This Sunday our women's team will gather in Reykjavik, from where we will go on a small ski trip.

This will be the last training campaign before the expedition to the North pole in April.

We will  ski daily 15-30 kilometers through the lava fields, learn to overcome torosy, ice-hole, quickly break camp and pack it in extreme weather conditions and so on... In General, we will work out everything we need during the expedition in the Arctic and check the equipment.

I'll finally meet the team. ))
