Dima Ermakov from Moskvin's glade:  Today we went down from a height of 5800 to rest. Under the plan, we will have three days off, that is, today, tomorrow and after tomorrow. I think our choice is very good. Now it snows, even in base camp. The bad weather. We are pleased that we fulfilled the plan of acclimatization. And we can rest and in bad weather.

 Today we celebrate the birthday of Vladimir Danilov, who turned 50 yesterday. So we are fine, everybody feels fine. We went to sauna, now we are clean as a pig. Hello!

After breakfast we went out on the slopes of the peak Petrovsky, past the cemetery of climbers and paragliders, and paying tribute to thos brave and selfless people. Ahead was a steep grassy slopes and talus. We were able to gain a height of 400 meters in 2 hours, in a good pace without shortness of breath and other signs of lack of acclimatization. We went up into several smaller peaks in a scree ridge. Above 4000m the weather turned bad. The descent took place without incident under the falling snow, but at an acceptable visibility. Everything goes according to plans and with absolutely right acclimatization.

With regards to our family and friends!
