Crimea 2018

Watch Vadim Khairullin's amateur film.  The passage of the climbing route (multi-pitch) Mishorsky caves. Fog, of course, greatly prevented to make high-quality shooting.  But still there is information about the route, it is clear that it is worthy to be considered one of the best in the Crimea.

Such diversity is nowhere on the Crimean climbing  routes, and the caves themselves are an amazing object.  We will wait for new, better shootings…

 Natalia Kartashova, head of the Crimean programs of the 7 Summits Club:

The program of Kirill and Alexandra Semeshkin’s  is completed.  For three days they climbed three difficult and beautiful routes on different massifs of the southern coast of Crimea.  The weather was not the best, but they did it. On the last day  Semeshkins passed two routes "Louis-Philippe" and "Gornyashka" in a cozy gorge "Uch-Kosh", the wall "Balan-Kaya". 

Our guides continue their training on the rocks of Sudak in Crimea. Today in the framework of the International School of guides they  worked  on "emergency descent of  climber".
