The "7 Volcanoes in 77 Days" team is flying home from Papua New Guinea. For a two-week vacation. In the first 27 days, we went/ran to 5 volcanoes on 5 continents. We only slept on the planes. There are still 50 days and 2 mountains left until the end of the project: Ojos del Salado - the highest volcano in South America and Sidley in Antarctica. Today in Port Moresby we met a competing company. Borya and Artem, who want to beat our speed record on Giluwe tomorrow. Good luck, guys! Alexander Abramov and Ilya Gdadkikh.
Many foreign guides have already congratulated us on the new world speed record. 5 volcanoes on 5 continents in 27 days! Thank you, friends!
SENSATION!!! The 7 Volcanoes in 77 Days team decided to "re-climb" the first mountains: Elbrus, Damavand, Kilimanjaro.... To shorten the project time!
Summit! The team of the project "7 volcanoes in 77 days" successfully climbed the summit of the Giluwe volcano. There is a 5th volcano!

On November 21 at 13:00 local time, the team "7 volcanoes in 77 days" (Alex Abramov and Ilya Gladkikh) climbed to the top of the Giluwe volcano, the highest on the Australian continent. Alex Abramov reports:
We climbed from the road without an overnight stay in 8 hours. We started at 5 am and reached the top at 1 PM. Now we are going down and flying home tomorrow morning.
There is a fifth volcano in the project! Five volcanoes on five continents in 29 days. Ahead is the most difficult and most remote object: Ojos del Salado and Sidley. In the meantime, we can and should rest.
An unexpected incident interrupted the ascent of Giluwe. Good health to Ilya!

The President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov reports from Papua New Guinea:
Today another adventure happened. We started the journey with porters through the jungle. Crawling under another tree, Ilya bumped his eye into an umbrella. And he immediately fell to the ground in convulsions. The eye was damaged. We turned around and quickly descended to Mount Hagen. At the Main Hospital, the best specialist in Papua New Guinea will examine him. Saving Ilya's eye is more important than the mountain!

Kilimanjaro. Our team of the project "7 volcanoes in 77 days" climbed to the Horombo camp 3800 m. The weather is very kind for us so far. There is no rain. There is no wind.
The camp is very comfortable. We live in small houses on beds. The food is very tasty. The team is in a great mood. Today we will watch a film about Everest, which Ilya Gladkikh shot in the spring during our spring expedition.
Today our team does nothing but dance and sing. I love this atmosphere on Kilimanjaro. Thanks to our local team, who make our ascent a holiday.

President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov from Iran:
Today we climbed Damavand - 5609m!!! On October 31 at 12:00 Iranian time, Ilya Gladkikh and I climbed the highest volcano in Asia. This is the second mountain from the "7 Volcanoes in 77 Days" project. The weather was not good at all, the climb was out of season. The wind was up to 60 km per hour. The temperature at the summit was minus 25. And there was already snow. I had three warm pants on. I have never put on so many! It was really hard to walk. But we managed.
Now we are urgently heading to Kilimanjaro!
Two volcanoes in 8 days - let's move on!

President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov:
Yesterday at 9 am, as part of the "7 Volcanoes in 77 Days" project, Alexander Abramov and Ilya Gladkikh ascended the first peak of the project - Elbrus. The ascent took place in unstable autumn weather conditions. Thus, the 7/77 project has begun.
The next peak is the Damavand volcano 5609 in Iran. We plan to climb it on October 31.
October 24. The countdown has begun! Alexander Abramov climbed the summit of Elbrus and began his journey to the record for the fastest time in the "Seven Volcanoes" program
Elbrus.

This morning, the President of the 7 Summits Club, Alexander Abramov, climbed to the top of Europe's highest volcano, Elbrus. We are turning on the counter. The "7 Volcanoes in 77 Days" project has started. Today was day number 1. Alexander climbed Elbrus together with Sergey Fedkin, who became the first participant in the record-breaking project as a partner. Let's continue to follow and count the days!
The "7 Volcanoes in 77 Days" project has started! The President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov is in the refuge and will storm Elbrus tomorrow
Elbrus.

The President of the 7 Summits Club, Alexander Abramov, moved the refuge today and will storm Elbrus tonight. This is the start of his (and our) project to set a record for the speed of completing the "Seven Volcanoes" program. We believe in our captain! In case of success, the countdown of the days of the "7 Volcanoes in 77 Days" project will begin tomorrow. The time will be counted from the moment of climbing the first of the seven volcanoes and the countdown will end as soon as the climber's foot rises to the seventh volcano. Weather and good luck, boss!
Alexander Abramov can be called the "godfather" of this program on a global scale. And who else but he should hold the record! It was the President of the 7 Summits Club who conceived, and our company carried out, the historic expedition to the Sidley volcano in 2011. Since the scientific discovery of this highest volcano in Antarctica, no one has been there. The 2011 ascent resulted in the first people to climb all seven volcanoes. These were our expedition members Mario Trimeri and Crina Popescu. And this was the real start of the Seven Volcanoes program. Russia, represented by our company, is the world leader in the number of climbers who have climbed all seven volcanoes of the project. At the moment, out of 46 who have completed the project, 14 represent our country. There is something to be proud of!
99 DAYS! Alex Abramov's new plan to set a record for the speed of completing the "Seven Volcanoes" program

The President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov has adjusted the previously announced project "Seven Volcanoes in Seven Months". Indeed, if a record is to be set, it should be extreme, at least in its part. Seven months is too easy, it can be halved!
Alexander Abramov plans to climb the highest volcanoes on all continents in less than 100 days. This will be "Project 99". On October 1, Alexander sets off with a group to climb the Giluwe volcano (Australian continent). And he intends to finish on the Antarctic mountain Mount Sidley in early January 2025.
Good luck, Ñaptain!
You can join our leader and take part in a real world record. There are places in almost all groups. And if there is no group, you can join our hero as a fan.
October 1-6. Alex Abramov will lead the 7 Summits Club group to climb Giluwe volcano.
On October 10, Moscow will host an Evening dedicated to the 7 Summits Club's birthday. The President's presence is mandatory.
October 12-13. These days are set aside for climbing Elbrus. The logistics are still unclear. Most likely, there will be an attempt at climbing SUPER BLITZ - 24 hours from the airport and back.
October 17-24. Damavand volcano, it is still unclear what program can be agreed upon with the Iranian host.
November 1-8. The highest volcano in Africa - Kilimanjaro. The 7 Summits Club group climbs the Marangu route.
NEXT - An emergency flight to Mexico. Alexander catches up with the SUPER GIRLS project group
November 7-16. Climbing Orizaba volcano according to the SUPER GIRLS project program!
December 10-24. The first group of the 7 Summits Club season on Ojos del Salado, the highest volcano in the world.
December 27, 2024 - January 10, 2024. New Year in Antarctica. Climbing Mount Sidley.
With ideal completion of all routes, it will take about 95 days from the first summit to the final one.
Alexander Abramov can safely be called the "godfather" of the Seven Volcanoes program. It was the president of the 7 Summits Club who conceived, and our company carried out, the historic 2011 expedition on Mount Sidley. Since the scientific discovery of this highest volcano in Antarctica, no one had been there. As a result of the 2011 ascent, the first people to climb all seven volcanoes appeared. These were the participants of our expedition, the experienced Italian climber Mario Trimeri and the 16-year-old Romanian girl Crina (Coco) Popescu. And this was the real start of the "Seven Volcanoes" program. Russia, represented by our company, is the world leader in the number of climbers who have climbed all seven volcanoes of the project. At the moment, out of 46 who have completed the project, 14 represent our country. There is something to be proud of!
The most important historical photo of the "Seven Volcanoes" project. 2011, at the top of Sidley are standing the expedition leader Alexander Abramov and the first people to climb all "seven volcanoes" Mario and Coco.

The project will be called "Seven Volcanoes in Seven Months." Alex Abramov will lead two Super Girls groups to Damavand and Elbrus in August. According to the plan, the ascent of Damavand should take place on August 13. From that day, the countdown for the record will begin. It is considered "from summit to summit." In October, Giluwe is planned, in November, Orizaba and Kilimanjaro. In December, an expedition to the Antarctic volcano Sidley. And in February, Alexander should complete the project by climbing Ojos del Salado. To break the speed record (183 days, 20 hours and 54 minutes), he needs to climb the Chilean volcano before February 12. Which is not entirely easy, if our President intends to finish the Antarctic season only on January 22. That was in his plans.

Andrey Kravchenko spent some time counting between his projects "Seven Summits" and "Seven Volcanoes". And the score was 4:4. But then the volcanoes made a winning leap. In any case, Andrey turned out to be the winner. After yesterday's ascent of Mount Giluwe, the highest volcano on the Australian continent, as part of the Sun Shine 7 Summits Club group, the Seven Volcanoes program is completed! Andrey will be ranked 46th in the World and 14th in Russia in the list of heroes. We are the leaders! More than 30% are our compatriots. And we plan to increase this percentage. Two groups have already been formed for the upcoming season by the 7 Summits Club!
Well, we wish Andrey to even the score! We know that in his plans there are three missing Summits Carstensz, Everest and Denali. If there are no subjective (political) problems, we are sure that he will cope.
